  Xenogears - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Xenogears' gameplay format is standard for console RPGs: the main characters advance the plot by traversing the game's world, which includes cities in the sky, vast deserts, and arcane ruins.
The main cause of this speculation is Xenogears' second disc of play, on which the plot seems to degenerate into repeated instances in which a few major characters narrate the events of the story rather than fully experience them.
This issue polarizes the Xenogears fanbase to this day; there are those who love the game but feel that the second disc depreciated the overall experience, whereas there are others who feel that, since the storyline was the most compelling aspect of Xenogears, the switch in narrative style was appreciated.

While it was an interesting plot devise, Xenogears obviously didn't think of this as an important thing to use throughout the game, while we all know how important it is in Eva.
The religous things used in Xenogears is a main theme of the game, while in Eva it is just a backdrop to support the rest of the story.
Xenogears and Eva are not the same except they both have really cool mechs which again are not similar in design, use, etc.

It is easy to overlook the use of the term Zohar and pass it off as an attempt to put the game in a more religious environment, but in fact, the term Zohar is the single most important element in Xenogears' plot.
When this theme is interpreted in terms of the Zohar, it is seen that the Nissan Church represents a view of "God" that more closely resembles the "soul" of the Torah.
In essence, Xenogears' main theme could best be described as "humanist", but such a generalization would overshadow many of the game's subtle spiritual themes; Xenogears was truly the ultimate story of life, love, and existence.

Still, if you've played Xenogears and still gets chills at the thought of Fei's showdown with Graaf, or Fei and Elly coming to terms with their feelings for each other, or Maria carrying the "attack team" into Solaris...you _have_ to get this soundtrack.
"Xenogears" was a very story-driven RPG, even for a Square title, and contained very heavy idealisms and thought-provoking concepts, so the music especially had to set a defined mood and atmosphere throughout the course of the game.
But "Xenogears" is undoubtedly his most powerful and emotional masterpiece, and is a game soundtrack not to be missed by anyone interesting in breathtaking music.

This list could be improved on, and the titles relisted to those of great importance.
Video games can also be categorized temporally - one may be a turn-based game or a continuous game - or in terms of the sort of display they have - 2d, 3d, fixed 3d, and so forth - though these tend to be more flexible.
Of course all of these categories are somewhat overlapping and incomplete.

The term "video game" is often not considered to include computer games and coin-operated arcade games, both because historically the games in these three categories were very different, and also because the activity of playing these three types of games is different.
This term is often used by people in the movie and television industry who are not comfortable with the idea that they are involved in making video games.
Emerging in the early 1980s, this genre is still very popular today and continue to push the envelope in terms of graphics and performance.
