Today I would like to honor a magnificent game of JRPG history, Xenogears. Xenogears, with it's symbolic references and cleverly crafted plot full of twists, and equal levels of heartbreak and heartwarming with each turn. Xenogears, which captivatingly told a story of love, hatred, faith, doubt, and the underlying belief that while the world can be hard and cruel, there's always something worth fighting for. Xenogears, who despite having it's funding cut halfway through so that they could throw more cash towards FF7. Xenogears, who when it came time to be translated into English, was shunned by almost every translator, many threatening to quit if they were assigned to it, untill finally it was done by one man, who slept in his office for the sake of getting it done on time for we, the gamers. Xenogears, in spite of the many wrongs against you, you still managed to be one of the most amazing games I have ever played. Thank you. *Salutes*

I'd read this, but I can't because I'm too busy watching Cloud fight Sephiroth
