She says that the thing she loved most
about writing Eye Contact was creating a central character who was as much of a
mystery as the perpetrator of the crime; she also comments that 20 % of Americans currently identify themselves as disabled, «an enormous group of people that has been underrepresented in books,
movies and TV»; so her next book will be a
mystery centered around a woman with cerebral palsy who is the unlikely center of a love triangle and the victim of a crime committed in its wake.
I have recently contracted with a narrator to produce the first Reed Ferguson

But that's going to the opposite extreme through maintaining
mystery by knowing almost absolutely nothing
about a

One of the most exciting and unique things
about the xenosaga series is that you can look foward to seeing different character models with each new game because appearence of the characters change with each game, not because the characters have aged but for other reasons.There is one special thing that xenosaga episode three has that should have been in the other xenosaga games is the swimsuit mode because it allows you to watch
movie scenes with the characters in there swimsuits but for some reason not all of the
movie scenes in xenosaga 3 can be viewed in swimsuit mode, I guess it would have made the
movie less serious or something.My favorite
movie scenes in xenosaga are blue testament, white testament, KOSMOS verses Black Testament, any
movie with Luis Virgil becaus ehe is my favorite character in the game because he's passionate and i don't think that he is a bad guy since he was able to brek free from being a testament and the only real reasons why he became a testament was because he wanted to be able to visit that old church on miltia and to gain power to prevent death.I also love Luis Virgil and all of the
movie scenes that he appear in becaus they are very dramatic.The best thing
about the xenosaga series is thst the story is very dee, interesting, and shocking and anyone who has played the game in order from episode one through three will definitely say the same thing.There is no doubt that anyone who has completed episode one and two will be stunned when every secret and
mystery is unraveled in episode three.The one thing that I can't seem to under stand is why do some of the characters have to travel back to the earth in the end, will shion and the gang make it back to earth or will there descendants finish the mission and find earth in the end, Chaos and Nephilim told the group that the key to saving humanity lies on earth, what I want to know is what is it and how will it be used to save the universe, Even in the end new
mysteries arose and remained unraveled.If there is any one outher who has has the awnswer to any of these questions please let me know when you write you're review or else there has just got to be a xenosaga four on the way, (crying) they just can't leave the story end this way.The only thing that dissapointed me
about the game at first was the battle system because on the back of the case of xenosaga three said that the best aspect of the previous battles systems from episode one were combined to form a new battle system, If namco had really done this Xenosaga episode three would have had a better battle system in my opinion because I belive that the best aspect of xenosaga episode one were the special atacks wich are better than the those of episode three and the best aspect of episode three as the break system wich was also better than those of episode three.I think that namco should have given xenosaga episode 3 the battle system of episode 2 combined episode ones style of special attack, but doing this would have probably made the battle system of xenosaga episode three boring because the same old tactics would have to be used in a new game and the battle system most likely would not be as realistic as it is but it would probably be cooler.However the ability to summon all four Erde Kaisers including the new Erde Kasier Sgma my most favorite summon in the world at will and use new Ether and Tech attacks along with the new Counter and Revenge abilities gave xenosaaga episode three more than boost that it needed to have an descent battle systemThe E.S battle system of xenosaga episode 3 is way more better than those of episod one and two though, I must say that Namco really outdid themselves with the E.S battle system of xenosaga episode because the other E.S battle system from the two previos games weren't good, luckily they made up for it with the character battle system.In episode one I never really wanted to use anA.G.W.S, lucky for me they were optional but in episode two sadly it is manatory that you pilot an E.S to progress in the game in Episode three you piloting an E.S is also mandatory to progress in the game but the difference between the three episode is that will be sorry in episode three you will ge glad that you are using an E.S because their battle system is extremely cool.Xenosaga is most definitely one of the besrt RPG games in the world andit is far more better than any final fantasy game that Square Enix has ever made but for some reason it still score lower than Some Final Fantasy and other Sqare Enix games on this site.I bet that if xenosaga was actually named Final Fantasy and had a subtitle it and if it wre made by sqare Enix it would have probably been more famous and it would have scored higher even though it is still the same gameIn the end with every thing being written said and done all i can say is that I feel more at peace now that I have defended this underated game.All I have to say now is that TURN BASED GAMES RULE!
