Xenosaga is what defines Cinematic RPG. OMG! There's more cutscenes than there is to me playing the game. Well not really, but I'm trying to emphasize it here. The whole thing feels like a sci-fi soap opera. In fact it feels like a soap opera version of Star Wars. No... that's not it.... It feels like an anime soap opera version of Star Wars. Yeah.....

Anyway, the background plot is pretty good so far (13 hours into the game; (highlight for spoiler)Kukai Foundation being detained by the Federation)...

Anyway, gotta say that Allen is one mistreated guy. :D
