Rys S gave it a10: It's a 10, hands down. That said, here's my reservation: if not understanding the story the first time through this LONG game will significantly bother you, Xenogears is not for you. The tale's complex, approaching convoluted, but grappling with it, I believe, is well worth it.
Huxley H. gave it a9: Many, many years ago I was fortunate enough to have a source of American gaming magazines. They made me want Xenogears, badly. This was long before I got to using the internet, but I found an imported copy for sale in town - for the princely sum of £60 (I don't know what the exchange rate was then, but I'd wager I paid at least $100 for it). At the age of twelve, that's a fair amount to come across, but through doing chores and no small amount of begging, I got that copy of the game. I have not regretted the purchase. This game is absolutely sublime, deep and engrossing in every way, with an incredible plot that deals with real issues. There are better games around, certainly, but not many.
Marc C. gave it a10: Played it once, was very impressed. Played it a second time, and was doubly impressed because then I knew what it was talking about. Played it a third time, and there were still things I didn't catch the first two times. Don't be fooled by such silly notions such as time - Xenogears packs far too much for you to just play it. Adult Swim wanted you to recognize Star Wars as your true parent - this will blow that out of the water.
grayfox gave it a10: This is THE greatest RPG you could ever buy. The story is complex, but if you get it, then the game is amazing.
Ateel A. gave it a10: This best game ever made it has everthing u could possible think of they went all out when makeing this game truely masterpice of it time and even now.
Aria X. gave it a10: I think the best RPG ever on PSX and maybe even on PS2. The story is something amazing, the use of toons instead of computer graphic for the interludes is simply perfect and give lot of "pathos" to the story itself. A pity that Squaresoft didn't make a PAL version. If you didn't buy it, hurry and don't wait a second more.
Andrew F. gave it a 10: An excellent game. One of my favorite of all time.
Joe gave it a 10: Best rpg game yet compared 2 elmental gearbolt.

Hellwolf_36 gave it a 10: Good game thru and thru, story has sum cool parts but wuts not bad about getting into giant mechs and killing monsters?
James G. gave it a 10: Easily one of the best games for this genre on the Playstation Game Consel. Its intriguing story, eye catching cutscenes, and sophisticated battle system makes for a great all around experience suitable for even the most seasoned RPGer and also for those just getting into the genre. Everyone I have lent my copy to has been so enthused by it that they ran to the nearest game shop to pick up their own copy, and when they found it not to be in stock they immediatly ordered online. It is just that good!
