Xenosaga III THIS MONTH

topic posted Tue, August 8, 2006 - 5:59 AM by  Elfie
So I am totally out of the loop. A friend told me at Otakon this weekend that Episode III comes out at the end of THIS MONTH. Holy crapbuckets. I need to finish up a couple other games right quick. No more Guild Wars for me for a little while. It doesn't look like the game has been listed on Amazon yet, but the strategy guide has:

www.amazon.com/exec/obido...anelfcom-20

Release date of August 23, so the game itself must be coming out right around then. EBGames has it listed for release on the 29th. How did I not know about this? I gotta pay more attention. And I gotta call around to see if there are pre-order goodies or anything.

Looks like there's an art book, but there may be more in-store. I'll post if I find out anything more.

    Sorry for the last-minute-ness. I ended up pre-ordering online at ebgames.com. The price has gone down to $40 and they are the only place I've found openly advertising the art book. I have asked like 10 different EBStops and all of them said about the same thing "well I THINK we're getting the art book." That's not quite good enough for me, so I'll settle with paying a shipping cost to make sure that I actually get the goodies.

    The wikipedia entry on Xenosaga III claims that other stores will be receiving either a life-size poster of T-Elos or an alternate version of the box art, but I can find NO other websites that corroborate this. If anyone has any sold information on this, PLEASE let me know.

      Well I went to Gamestop and they said it comes with the Art Book. The artbook does nothing for me really. But I just figured I would let you know

        cool thanks for the tip... I wonder if it's too late to cancel the online order and save myself the shipping charge...

          I just beat Xenosaga 1 (after 30 fricken hours) going to start Xenosaga 2 tommororw and then getting Xenosaga 3 on the 30th (I think that is when it came out) However not going to play it until I beat Xenosage 2 lol.

          Love the ending in Xenosaga 1.

            ooo have you played Xenogears? because there's a hint of Xenogears at the end of Xenosaga 1. the end of Xenosaga 2 is fantastic as well

              I did play Xenogears, a very very long time ago, so I probably didn't get the hint. I remember getting to the very end of Xenogears and was stuck becuase i couldn't go back to level my char becuase they were not high enough to beat the bad guy in the floating area.
