How's it going? My name is Aaron and I have Irish and Filipino roots in me, but I am and consider myself American; I take pride in being an American. I live in South Carolina( I think it blows down here), but I wish to return to Alaska.
A little about my personality: I tend to be introverted around new people, but once you get to know me, I can be pretty silly which may betray initial perceptions of me. I like to find a balance between the sciences and the humanities, because I believe both are imporant. Currently right now, Im a student in college pursuing my associate's in science for mircobiology/virology.
I generally like to read about science, philosophy, and history. I also like to play video games, fish, play soccer, snowboard, and lift weights.
SALVETES OMNES! Greetings, everybody !

(Ruri Hoshino)
More Ruri :)
As you can see, I like Ruri a lot ;)

At the final dungeon. Man this game just gets sadder and sadder! ... like it doesn't feel really rushed or anything, but it seems like they could've done so much more with all these characters and rivalries. It's coming together nicely though.
The game is ultra linear though and does have super fast pacing, but again, it doesn't feel like a mess. I was thinking about it earlier today though, that's gotta be devastating for the creators of the series... Namco (or themselves) haven't to pull the plug on the bigger plan, so they had to cut down so much stuff and come up with something they probably didn't fully envision originally. Well, I guess we've seen that happen in anime a lot too.
I think my only real complaint for the game though, was that the music wasn't very good. There were just a few tracks here and there, but other than that... it's definitely not an RPG OST I'd care to check out, lol. I guess the main composer for the other Xeno series didn't work on this one, so it really shows apparently.
Levi was a beast, lol.
This is all kind of making me want to pickup Episode II again, but I checked out videos and remembered just how bad it was. I think you had to use turns to literally "boost" instead of hitting enemies? What a pain in the ass!
What really interests me though is Xenosaga I-II on the DS... apparently it's been out in Japan and it sounds like they changed episode II a good bit, shifting the focus back to Shion rather than Jr., and it supposedly has the same battle system as episode I's. Man we BETTER get this in the US, it sounds pretty cool.
And my final note, as much as I love mecha anime (you know me! lol), I've gotta say the Xeno series outshines a lot of them... and I imagine Xenogears will be no different. It's just one of those epic universes that's so heavily detailed you really get pulled in.

Haha, I do wish the anime series did better though. It would've been cool to see a huge 100 some episode series for it or something, or hell, an anime series that covered EVERYTHING the way it was meant to be... with the series being cut in half and all. :(
The worst part is that I hear Monolith Soft is owned by Nintendo now... they're working a game for the Wii. That's great and all... but ugh. Nintendo?
I also should be getting Xenogears in the mail soon. I'm going to that right away after I beat episode III. Made it to the second disc!

BAH! I always wanted Allen to be cooler and playable, then they did that ... and he sucked, lol. Guess it makes sense for him to be a little weak though! I didn't use him though since it would've wasted some extra exp for other characters.
I am definitely trekking along the game now. I'm on my way out of Militia after the Federation attacked, rescued Shion, etc. I think if I can keep playing in big chunks this week maybe I'll finish it over the weekend or just get really far (people seem to say it's 30-40 hours? I've got about 16 now). It's definitely pulling me away from anime and other things now, lol.

Yay, KOS-MOS back in her original suit!
Oh and Allen... lmao, I've always liked him a lot. Hilarious character.

I had to pay a solid $50, but it was for the original black label edition with the case and all so it's worth it I'd say.

Nooooooooot much you?
Just been busy with work as usual, and trying to balance videogames and anime, lol. I'm still not too far into Xenosaga III, but I'm up to chapter 5 I believe. I absolutely love it and finally went ahead and ordered Xenogears, gonna start that one up whenever I finish episode III...

LOGH?!?!
Heh...
Did the ending to Seirei no Moribito choke you up a bit? I thought that was definitely one of the shows strongest aspects, it got so intense towards the end.

Seriously good point when you consider that F91 is indeed part of the UC timeline... so it's just, the EF vs aristocrats again and again, lol. But yeah I definitely liked the Crossbone Vanguard, they even seemed a little more old fashioned than Zeon, or Tomino just kind of handled them a bit better. The masked guy was kind of silly though... thinking about it now, it would've been cool to see his whole story fleshed out in a whole series or something.
Yeah, it's a good movie but quite a shame I'd say, it probably had potential to be one of Tomino's best if it had the time it needed. I wouldn't be surprised if the shows failure to start was part of Tomino's angst while working on Victory. It's always kind of weird to think Victory came after F91, CCA, I know those two are movies and can have mega budgets... but still, Victory just LOOKED like ass with the production/art and whatnot, for a mid 90's series, wow. You could tell Sunrise was about to die (then Bandai acquired them around that time I believe, which Tomino was also against from what I've heard. He probably knew, bigger company = less freedom).

Me lazy. Haven't actually checked stores. Though the collectible stores I usually go to for older and rare games... I do remember specifically looking out for it almost everytime I go, but it's never there.

Yeah I'm seeing Xenosaga III go for like $50 on Amazon, if I want the case/manual/etc (which I do when I buy games... lol). Sounds worth it though.
