The story and the soundtrack of this game(series as a whole) is unforgettable. I played solo with game as it's a solo RPG. The mecha combat is very fun and some of the bosses are very tough. I have all three PS2 games and I would love to play the games on the PC
What an incredible game that managed to not only pull it's on weight, but Episode II's as well.
The story is amazing, the characters are among the most fleshed out I've seen on a JRPG and they have great chemistry with one another, the soundtrack is beautiful throughout the entire trilogy and the gameplay is varied enough between ground and mech battles to keep you entertained the whole way.
Why do I want the trilogy on GOG? well, the franchise has been dormant for a good 20 years and Bandai doesn't seem to have any plans to do anything with it, so I would love to legally own them on my platform of choice (PC) if I ever get the chance.
The entire Xenosaga series is gorgeous with an incredible story. I remember playing the first one with my brother, watching all the cutscenes and being astounded at what I saw. It's incredibly hard to find these games now, the whole series can be over $300 sometimes because how rare the discs were. These games need to be available in a way people can enjoy them affordably.
This made the Trilogy worthwhile.
Unlike others i was let down by Xenosaga 1&2 but this game existing redeemed the trilogy for me. Its basically what i wanted from the start, unfortunately it came too late and instead of being 6 games, it got cut to 3. At least it went out on a high note.
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox

Strider 2Strider 2, released in arcades and on the Sony Playstation in 2000, is the sequel to the popular arcade and multiplatform game Strider. This game is considered the true sequel to the original Strider, rather than Strider Returns. Strider Returns is not considered a part of the series, as it was not developed by Capcom, it was exclusive to the west, and most people hated it. Strider 2, on the other hand, was very well received. Unfortunately, despite being hailed by critics and series fans, Strider 2 did not sell well.
The Playstation version of the game included the original Strider on a separate disc, for those who had never played it to become accomodated with the series. In the United States, there was a printing error for the game that swapped the labelling of each CD, so the Strider 2 disc was labelled Strider, and the Strider disc was labelled Strider 2.Action Science fiction
