I know that it probably is Xenosaga related considering that it's Namco, but shouldn't you mention the source of the name itself? It's not impossible that it's for a totally unrelated project that also is using a Nietzsche title.

Well Monolith Soft is now owned by Nintendo, so that depends on how much control Namco has. But I would love to see it in a HD Collection on PS4 like .hack//G.U. |

Monolith Soft has zero control over the Xenosaga IP. KOS-MOS's inclusion in Xenoblade 2 required Bamco's approval for instance.

If there's a PS2 RPG trilogy that could use an HD collection-style "International edition", this one would be it - hopefully this comes to fruition as a project soon. |

At first I thought they tried trademarking the song, so all I could think of is Ric Flair going “Wooo!” in the face of a Bandai executive.

If there going to be make a remaster, any chance we could have the entire trilogy in episode 1 art style? No I suppose not.

I kinda liked the 3rd the most as far as art went, but i guess the thing that annoyed me most with the trilogy and it might of been minor too some, but its the change in VA from 1 to 2 to 3, especially with Shion and Kosmos, still not sure why they couldnt get them for Episode 2, but they did 1 and 3 |

I hope they add trophies to these if they re-release all the games on PSN. I loved the games and would love to play the trilogy again, but I will forever be sad that the project was cut in half due to budget issues and you can really tell too with how the last game was rushed. I always wonder what the story would have been like if they had the budget to do all 6 like originally planned.

I assume the TM is within the context of gaming.
Otherwise...good luck with that. Singed: Richard Strauss (1864-1949) |

We got less than half. 1 and 2 were meant to be a single game, with 3 as the conclusion to Shion's story. So we only got a third. |

It was also because Namco fired the entire development team twice. And you're quite right about that; you can tell it was rushed, what with them spoiler[killing off major NPCs one by one toward the conclusion, as well as offing Jin]. Episode III has also become notoriously rare due to not getting a second print run, so any copies online go for hefty prices. |

For a quick English written source I used this - Xenogears and Xenosaga Study Guide Preservation of information and interviews regarding this epic series. link: spoiler[ http://xenogearsxenosagastudyguide.blogspot.com/p/the-history-of-xenosaga.html ] I & II were never intended to be a single game. Episodes I & II were to tell the story's first arc,episodes III & IV the 2nd arc,and V & VI the 3rd arc. But constraints (disk space,time and etc) reduced the story content of Xenosaga I to 20%.

The next thing we know, Bandai will be trademarking Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung or Sein und Zeit or something of a similar heritage, having failed to acquire the rights to the original term following a legal challenge from Ric Flair.
