Xenogears | Video Game Review
5This is a review of Xenogears for the playstation 1. Games are art. Not only do they combine elements from all other artforms, from storytelling to visual art to music composition, but the complexity added by having the audience be an active participant in the art object is matched by no other medium. Yet, perhaps because of this complexity, games historically fall behind other forms of media when taking only those constituent parts alone. A movie will often look better than a game. The best novels tell more complex and interesting stories than any of the video games we have. But that’s what interested me about Xenogears: it had the potential to push video game storytelling into its own. It’s just unfortunate that it really could not live up to its potential.
