I apologize for going all geeky here these past couple of entries. I’ll get back to recording the mundane details of my life soon enough ;)

I was just informed by a friend that Xenosaga III for the PS 2 is out in the US now. For those not familiar with the Xenosaga series, well..you didn’t miss much. It’s a followup to a much better game, published by Square called Xenogears. Well, really they’re unofficial prequils. It’s rather hard to explain the relationship. Anyway, Xenogears has probably the best storyline in any game I’ve ever played. It’s about 60-70 hours long in true Japanese RPG fashion, however it doesn’t feel that long, always keeping you interested in a story that has so many twists and turns that playing through it again to catch everything that’s happening is recommended. If you haven’t played Xenogears…stop reading this now and go do it. It’s incredible.

Anyway, Xenosaga isn’t. The first one was all right…the second one was torture. One of the worst games I ever played, but I finished it because of it’s connection to Xenogears. And now episode 3 is actually out and people say it’s pretty good.

I think I’ll be picking it up tonight. I’m a glutton for punishment
