I read this on the Gaming Age forums a little earlier today. I was wondering if they were going to go 2D. Glad to see they are.

thats really cool that its going to be 2D and fewer cut scenes, maybe ill actually play it now

I have Xenosaga on th ps2 as I assume many of you have....and although it was cool to play, that was exactly the problem...too many movies. I'm glad the DS is getting this game. I hope it retains the important movies and kicks some serious ass. This + Lunar = RPG heaven...well not counting Zelda.

I'm curious as to how Namco will pull it off and to see how much of the touch screen and second screen they'll use. But seeing how this is still strictly a port, albeit 2-d, it'll have to be pretty amazing to get me to play it for a second time.

I tried playing Xenosaga 1 but way too many cutscenes for my taste and time. Playing these might make me play the PS2 versions in the future :-p

Is this officially the strangest port ever? My God. It does look rather awesome, though.

Yeah, I think so. Might turn out interesting...I do so love 2D hi-res graphics.
