What a legend. Sucks that the Voyager death music isn’t available cus I really want to listen to that by itself without watching the scene over and over again.
@@nicogalax Well, depends on what you mean. If you mean 8:24:15 and 8:43:36, then yeah, both of those are remixes of Sakura's theme without names. maybe tomorrow~ending medley does have a bit that's like Sweet Song (technically Xenosaga II opening theme), but sadly that doesn't actually play in-game.
XENOBLADE 3 hype the Xeno series lives on and it looks like we have actual testaments this time! Anyhow Saga III is also GOAT. I mean Shion is the best protagonist in the series and this episode concludes her arc beautifully
I was very impressed with all 3 parts of the "Xenosaka" game. Part 3, the ending was very well done and brought tears to my eyes. Among the games that I have played, there are quite a few. That made me shed tears like Final fantasy 8, 10 and 10-2, Wild arms 4, 5, etc., so touching and fun that I can hardly find words to say anymore. I like it, I love it, from now on I'll probably find games. It's hard to play like this. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
something small I realize is that even though she's the main character, Shion never had a direct archenemy to face like everyone else did, MAYBE you can say red testament but it's not like they hated each other or had any kind of beef to the level of Jin and Margulis or Ziggy and Voyager
Funny thing is if someone just watched the cutscenes from the games and never actually played part 2 they wouldn’t have a clue who the Professor and assistant Scott are. 😅
5:26:56 I legitimately can't decide if this scene or the ma belle peche scene is the hardest one in the entire series I never imagined that Mizrahi pullin' up with da Glock and kneecapping Sellers while quoting Revelations would go as hard as it did
@@ikec2894the. XenoBlade trilogy is great, but they do not hold a candle to the level of ambition and scope of XenoGears and the XenoSaga trilogy. I rated the XenoBlade’s all 9’s out of ten. But XenoSaga trilogy gets a 10, and XenoGears is my single favorite game ever.
@@Zephal42 There is definitely a need to remaster Xenosaga when the original games are so difficult to buy for cheap on Ebay. Also, a remaster could introduce the series to wider audiences.
Never , because the studio behind this series , Monolith Soft is now a Nintendo's FIRST part studio , they can't work with Sony , which owns the rights of this trilogy.
@@Paulodealgumacoisa Sony does not, Bandai Namco does, Bandai Namco actually works with Nintendo frequently and allows use of Xenosaga rather liberally. KOS-MOS and T-elos have made an appearance in the most recent Xeno game, as well as in a figure, and various art pieces released by Monolith.
And Bandai Namco still own part of Monolith Soft. Its definitely possible. They were considering it at one point and the buz was they never followed through because they thought it wouldn’t be profitable.
The one thing I'm not a fan of is how this version doesn't have the misty filter off of the scenes at the Beach of Nothingness. The base colors are gorgeous, but the filter made everything look so ethereal and mystic, as well as cover the small inconsistencies that remained unpolished because of said filter. It also isn't consistent with the Beach's presentation in the preceding games, all of which really takes me out of the scenes. Other than that, this such a great nostalgia trip. Xenosaga Ep. III is one of the best games I've ever played, and I really hope the series gains new life through Xenoblade, as well as an eventual remaster.
Yeah, I'm sorry for that. When I recorded these cutscenes back in late 2012 / early 2013, all of the PS2 emulators had some issues with this game. The filters just weren't working properly.
Potential spoilers?: You know, at a point in the prologue when they reflect on shion and the gnosis terrorism, i think that event should have been episode 3 if things didnt go the way they went with funds for development no thanks to the second game. It would’ve been nice to know more about that event in depth since it deals with nephilim trying to be contacted by grimoire. I remember reading that in the database when it was unlocked in the game. Regardless i loved the entire series as a whole, really disappointing to not see it continue.
In Japan they had a flash game called A Missing Year that was never translated. I think you can find it on youtube where someone actually translated it.
Imma be real with you but that voice actress that did Shelley is the same one that did as liara from the mass effect series she just sounds like liara soo much
@@Bynk333 Haven't played 8 yet but better and more polished than X in every way imo, at least it has actual level designs, not even mentioning the unmatched character depth and worldbuilding
I know she's supposed to be portrayed "realistically", but I'm really disgusted by how shion acted throughout episode 1- 3 ,she's so reckless ,stupid and selfish, jin did nothing wrong imho
Yeah, even though she finally realizes she pushed him away, it was too late. Glad they at least made peace with each other. Great characters, both of them!
Well, there's not really any option besides emulation if you want to play this game in resolutions above 480i (yeah, I don't think the Xenosaga games even supported 480p). The emulator has improved quite a bit since I recorded this in late 2012/early 2013, but it's still not perfect, unfortunately.
@@Helsionium oh no it just is a shame because the filter reveals a lot before it is meant to be seen. There is the hyperkin that upscales to 720p on the ps2 now at least

Hi Dad
Hi dad
XENOBLADE 3 hype the Xeno series lives on and it looks like we have actual testaments this time! Anyhow Saga III is also GOAT. I mean Shion is the best protagonist in the series and this episode concludes her arc beautifully
One of the best rpg ever made
Xenogears and the XenoSaga trilogy are my favorite RPG’s of all time. Best storylines ever!
💯💯💯💯💯♥️
What I love about this episode is the interaction with Shion and her co-workers
I was very impressed with all 3 parts of the "Xenosaka" game. Part 3, the ending was very well done and brought tears to my eyes. Among the games that I have played, there are quite a few. That made me shed tears like Final fantasy 8, 10 and 10-2, Wild arms 4, 5, etc., so touching and fun that I can hardly find words to say anymore. I like it, I love it, from now on I'll probably find games. It's hard to play like this. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
My most beloved jewel in the rpg history 💙
something small I realize is that even though she's the main character, Shion never had a direct archenemy to face like everyone else did, MAYBE you can say red testament but it's not like they hated each other or had any kind of beef to the level of Jin and Margulis or Ziggy and Voyager
Makes me cry everytime :).
Funny thing is if someone just watched the cutscenes from the games and never actually played part 2 they wouldn’t have a clue who the Professor and assistant Scott are. 😅
Whoops.
Also if they don't know what Missing Year is, Doctus just comes out of nowhere.
Who?? 😬🤣🤣
it's pretty funny how his importance grew and grew each game
Xenosaga is a great series!
Thank you for uploading this here
5:26:56 I legitimately can't decide if this scene or the ma belle peche scene is the hardest one in the entire series
I never imagined that Mizrahi pullin' up with da Glock and kneecapping Sellers while quoting Revelations would go as hard as it did
This is a masterpiece in the role-playing game history. Where is the remaster? It's way overdue.
The team that made this game series is now under Nintendo's wing. The Xenoblade series in there latest masterpiece.
Too expensive and experimental for Bamco to allow. Takahashi's words, not mine.
maybe? coming?
@@ikec2894the. XenoBlade trilogy is great, but they do not hold a candle to the level of ambition and scope of XenoGears and the XenoSaga trilogy. I rated the XenoBlade’s all 9’s out of ten. But XenoSaga trilogy gets a 10, and XenoGears is my single favorite game ever.
"It can't be...!" - every single character in this series at some point
This is like the da vinci code in space.
These games defined my childhood ♥️
Hey namco when are you going to remaster it
There's no need for a game that was way ahead of its time.
@@Zephal42 There is definitely a need to remaster Xenosaga when the original games are so difficult to buy for cheap on Ebay. Also, a remaster could introduce the series to wider audiences.
Never , because the studio behind this series , Monolith Soft is now a Nintendo's FIRST part studio , they can't work with Sony , which owns the rights of this trilogy.
@@Paulodealgumacoisa Sony does not, Bandai Namco does, Bandai Namco actually works with Nintendo frequently and allows use of Xenosaga rather liberally. KOS-MOS and T-elos have made an appearance in the most recent Xeno game, as well as in a figure, and various art pieces released by Monolith.
And Bandai Namco still own part of Monolith Soft. Its definitely possible. They were considering it at one point and the buz was they never followed through because they thought it wouldn’t be profitable.
That feeling when Xenoblade 4 and Xenosaga 4 are going to be the same game.
Hopefully.
The one thing I'm not a fan of is how this version doesn't have the misty filter off of the scenes at the Beach of Nothingness. The base colors are gorgeous, but the filter made everything look so ethereal and mystic, as well as cover the small inconsistencies that remained unpolished because of said filter. It also isn't consistent with the Beach's presentation in the preceding games, all of which really takes me out of the scenes.
Other than that, this such a great nostalgia trip. Xenosaga Ep. III is one of the best games I've ever played, and I really hope the series gains new life through Xenoblade, as well as an eventual remaster.
Yeah, I'm sorry for that. When I recorded these cutscenes back in late 2012 / early 2013, all of the PS2 emulators had some issues with this game. The filters just weren't working properly.
@@Helsionium Ah, okay. I have zero experience with emulators, so that's good to know.
so sad this didnt get a remake or remaster :/

Great series i miss it
Potential spoilers?:
You know, at a point in the prologue when they reflect on shion and the gnosis terrorism, i think that event should have been episode 3 if things didnt go the way they went with funds for development no thanks to the second game. It would’ve been nice to know more about that event in depth since it deals with nephilim trying to be contacted by grimoire. I remember reading that in the database when it was unlocked in the game. Regardless i loved the entire series as a whole, really disappointing to not see it continue.
These events, as I remember, were covered in "Xenosaga: Missing Year"
In Japan they had a flash game called A Missing Year that was never translated. I think you can find it on youtube where someone actually translated it.
It's translated on youtube! Worth the watch as it adds tons on context
imagine if our planet earth had a orbital elevator that can take us to the international space station like fifth jerusalem 😭😭😭😭
Kevins a groomer
Imma be real with you but that voice actress that did Shelley is the same one that did as liara from the mass effect series she just sounds like liara soo much
You're right, it's Ali Hillis. She actually voiced both Mary and Shelley.
@@Helsionium that’s awesome someone that voice acted before or after mass effect came
This is the best soundtrack to any video game
Final fantasy x OST has entered the chat.
SMT Strange Journey OST has entered the chat.
Sorry but Final Fantasy 7 & Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix would like a word
I'm glad it ended nicely. Episode 2 had me worried. 😅
epic game, better than any final fantasy.
Better then VIII or X? No way! :-)
@@Bynk333 ill have to desagree w u
@@Bynk333 Haven't played 8 yet but better and more polished than X in every way imo, at least it has actual level designs, not even mentioning the unmatched character depth and worldbuilding
I love this RPG,
Love it!
How many times has it been now?
5:50:25 wow, Shion can be a real brat if she wants to.
I know she's supposed to be portrayed "realistically", but I'm really disgusted by how shion acted throughout episode 1- 3 ,she's so reckless ,stupid and selfish, jin did nothing wrong imho
Agreed TBH.
Yeah, even though she finally realizes she pushed him away, it was too late. Glad they at least made peace with each other. Great characters, both of them!
She reminds me of Yoyo from "Bahamut Lagoon". They both do have quite a lot in common from the point of writing.
so underestimated
7:50:27 this kind of writing is so cringe. I hate how they have to beat him up multiple times while everyone just watches.
I always love this game
4:48:48 Okay that was a moment that made me like Chaos
See someone played this emulated, them missing filters all over the place.
Well, there's not really any option besides emulation if you want to play this game in resolutions above 480i (yeah, I don't think the Xenosaga games even supported 480p). The emulator has improved quite a bit since I recorded this in late 2012/early 2013, but it's still not perfect, unfortunately.
@@Helsionium oh no it just is a shame because the filter reveals a lot before it is meant to be seen. There is the hyperkin that upscales to 720p on the ps2 now at least
Is this the English or Japanese? What to play to three. I have one and two.
"Like" if you're here because of Mr. McGrath's Theology class. ^_^

Poor Kevin
Every 7 minutes there’s a commercials
I'm very sorry, I can't do anything about that. It's the decision of Victor Entertainment, the copyright holder of this game's soundtrack.
I had made my 1st Xenosaga tribute. Jr ft Momo & Albedo~ My Immortal. The tribute is on my channel if anyone is interested
PS2 was too much.
Hey have some respect ps2 it’s not too much at all do you have any respect to everyone? Do you?
@@W.P.CDarkEvilLordBadassGamer Judging by your english i'd suppose you took my words the wrong way. lol
Damn ..!
