The latest title in the much esteemed Xenosaga/Xenogears line of games, Xenoblade, is a causing a stir for all the wrong reasons.
Xenosaga vs Xenoblade:
What happened to the main heroine’s face is a matter of some speculation. 2ch has gamely provided a Photoshop correction:
The latest trailer puts a brave face on things:
Anyone could be forgiven for thinking this was a PSP title with rather poor graphics, but it is in fact due for a spring release on the Wii.
Wtf are you guys on?! This has NOTHING to do with Xenogears/Xenosaga!!!!!
It’s a Wii game. Expect absolutely nothing.
What did you except? It’s a Wii title. >_>
I have two points of view in the argument. Graphics do NOT equal gameplay, Xenoblade looks like it is going to be an amazing game based off the universe alone.
The other one is that the PS2 is quite a bit weaker than the Wii, but my guess is that with Xenoblade they wanted to keep it to one disc, and thats why it doesn’t look as good as the 2 DVD Xenosaga Episode 3 (look at the graphics of Episode 2 and get back to me)
i’m sorry, i don’t care how good the gameplay or the story is, if everything else looks like crap, i’m not going to play it.
take kingdom hearts 358/2 days. i know it’s only a DS title, but even for the DS, graphically, it’s TERRIBLE. makes it hard to play, imo, and KH is one of my all time favorite franchises.
i imagine that this bizarre sort of rendering is going to be distracting to anyone who plays/has played many other games on different systems.
That’s because Kingdom Hearts doesn’t have good gameplay to support the terrible story. So without the good graphics to highlight the Disney cameos it’s pretty much worthless.
Who cares about the graphics? Graphics do not make or break a game!
Is it fun to play? How’s the story?
