I'm not sure how accurate this information is, but Japanese Journal site Mainichi Interactive breifly mentions in their latest focus article that the next installment to the Xenosaga series will be an online game.

They also mention that the production costs of Xenosaga is said to be around 1 Billion Yen, which is about 7.8 Million Dollars. What the.. that's about the cost of a Hollywood movie!!

I still kind of wonder how well the game would've sold, had not the main character been a good looking cute girl with glasses. That's like, cheating!

Edit: Link was wrong! I meant to link to the Japanese article, not to the picture of Shion! ... Should I have lefted it like that?

I might be a tuna cat.

Nothing wrong with cheating when it looks so good...:)

Hmm, everybody seems to be jumping on this online gaming bandwagon in Japan. And while it's cool and all, you just have to wonder if they know what they're getting into. Online games aren't easy to debug, present a whole new series of problems, and can easily be ruined by lamers...

Still, I'd be so there for some online Shion and Kos-mos action! ^^

The implementation of new things is what can cause that one saga prevails or fails, everything depends on the persistence that they have in making the things. But it also seems to be that the money nonlack; it is necessary to see that they spend it so well. At the present time the accomplishment of a good game require of a good and extensive team of people. The level of the programming, games, and increased hardware increased to at a resounding level, taking to the success many games, and to the failure many others. Thus it is the market of the videogames.

Well... I guess that's OK, as long as the 1P mode remains strong, and the story remains good.

As long as they have a strong story with Abel & Elly in togas...sure, but otherwise, Namco & Monolith are dead!

I still wonder how well it would've sold had they not made that SEXY image of Shion and KOS-MOS together. That's like, effective!

Xenogears spoilers here...

Episode 2 being online? weird... wasn´t Episode 2 covering Cain, Abel and Elly's life and all the events after the Eldrige crash on the planet? It looks like they'll change the story a lot, then...
