Talk:Xenosaga Episode III

Reviews
If anyone knows the famitsu review i think it would be good to add it (like in any videogame as it is the only review everyone takes seriously worldwide) -      Also, Shouldn't we add the X-Play review? Plus, X-Play's distaste of the series?

Music
What is exactly meant by Episode III being Kajiura Yuki's first solo composition project since the .hack anime? Rather, what exactly is a "solo composition project"? She's recently done My-Otome and other anime individually and not as a joint project, so I think that remark in the music section should be removed. Alternatively, one could mention My-Otome, although I don't think that's really necessary since that's in 2005-2006 and Episode III is 2006. -- Remy Suen 18:33, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Does anyone know if the Emily Curtis from the soundtrack is the same one as the one that's in Wikipedia? Wikilinks are always nice. :) --Remy Suen 10:54, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

The Opening and Ending to Mai-Otome aren't Kajiura's work now is it?69.224.164.195 08:54, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Adding Information about the Censorship.
Considering this game seems to have the heaviest out of all the Xenosaga games, in terms of censorship, could someone possibly compile information on what was changed? (And from reports given, I have a feeling this'll be a long list...) - Mendinso

Agreed. - MK
 * If it helps, all the changes I've noticed involved the removal of blood and some bruises. I might be able to get a better list somewhere, though. --melodiester 14:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)


 * i think there are three scenens wich have been modified, just removing blood. This changes a lot one of the scenes, where little shion says "put it back" because it doesn't mean anything in the U.S. version (in the jp version she holds blodd and says put it back). Even though, i don't know if you may say that it was more heavily censored than ep1, where two scenes where really modified

The scenes that are edited are:

SPOILERS

1. Febronia is attacked and killed in her church. There was blood when she was being beaten. 2. When Shion's parents are killed. There is blood coming from her parents when they are killed. 3. When little Shion is holding the blood. 4. Yuriev's assault in the Durandal. There was blood when the Durandal crew were shot and you got to see Yuriev's solider kill the woman, instead of it cutting away. There was a big blood splatter on the floor when he killed her. 5. Shion's shower scene. They added a bit more steam. 6. Margulis's death scene. You saw him kill himself in the Japanese version. 7. They took off the blood and bruises from Allen's face in the ending. 8. Jin's death. There was blood in the original scene.

Blood-a little silly?
I know this doesn't have much to do with the article, but, if Batman vs. Dracula could have so much blood, then why does this have to be censored so heavily? This is just my opinion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.222.232.9 (talk) 02:38, 3 March 2007 (UTC).

Reception and Plot/Story

 * As for the Plot Summary/Story, it seems as though it needed cleanup until someone decided to remove all content except the first paragraph, and nobody undid it? Seems the section needs expansion again.
