19. OMG, a
long letter ;)
Sender:
Auricia |
Q: I
just wanted to say that I love this site! It's really awesome.
Now, onto the questions:
1. I saw last week that you posted a letter showing the cover
of two Xenogears books. I was wondering if you knew of a site
where I could order them. I missed out on getting Perfect Works,
but I'd love to find Daggers. Also, in Japan, did you know that
there was also a book of Xenogears postcards and two comic books
produced? I thought it was interesting, but I couldn't find out
anything else.
2. I know that it's supposed to be possible to defeat Hammer,
but how do you do it? How strong do you have to be? I've tried
five times and I still can't beat him!
3. This is not really a question, but, has anyone else seen the
funny conversation between Citan, Fei and the female doctor in
Kislev. While you're a prisoner, Hammer takes you to the top
of the building in the civilian section. You can get down by
taking the stairs or jumping over a chimney to the ground. If
you don't try and jump into the chimney, you'll run right down
it and end up in the bathroom! When you come out, the female
doctor and Fei have a funny reunion, with Fei having a little
explaining to do to Citan about how he knows this woman "in
these clothes"! It's a really great secret!! |
Hyuga:
1. Again, I'll do a favor for you like I did for Nick. BTW, you
have any more info on them things you just mentioned. I want
a Fenrir postcard!
2. Hey, Hammer is beatable, and I did it. My team of Seibzehn,
Fenrir and Weltall 2. Fist off, have a DeathBlower1 equipped
on Seibzehn. By the time Hammer goes red, you must have Seibzehn
at AL3, Fenrir at AL3 or Hyper Mode, and Welatll 2 with Hyper
Mode/System Id. Also, Booster is necessary. Now, have Seibzehn
AL1 Hammer, as with Fenrir (or use Hyper Mode's highest attack).
Weltall 2 is obvious. If done properly, Hammer will fall and
you will receive the Trader's Card, an excellent item to receive
items with.
3. I've seen it, I think it's built into the game. It does show
a lighter side to this serious game though. |
20. Who is
he?

Q: First
off, I would just like to say that this is the best Xenogears
site on the web, and I hope it keeps doing as well as it is.
Now here is my question: Did you ever find out who that guy was
at the end of the game with the radio thing? |
|
Hyuga: Well, the PW book
doesn't really mention who this guy is officially (as if he was
that important), and no trace in the game mentioned his true
identity. However, the most common idea is that he is Siggy's
assistant, the helmsman trainee in the bridge of the Yggdrasil.
The Interactive Guessing Game has a new question, but you can
find everyone's ideas in the archive. I advise you to check it
out, many are downright hilarious. |
21. Ammo for
the Generator
Sender:

Q: About
half a year ago, some body had ask where did the name "Grahf"
came from. I'm not sure, but in the Xenogears ost, Grahf's name
is Graaf. Have you ever heard of the Van de Graaf power generator?
Thats where I think the name came from, the name was changed
during the translation. It make some sense too, because they
both are powerful. Also, I never seem any EthLightAmmo for Billy
before, where you get those? |
Hyuga: It might be where
Grahf's name is from, but you never know. It does make sense.
And another fact for us in North America, Citan was also named
Shitan in Japan. We can all see why it was changed.
Ether Light Ammunition can be received by using the GameShark
'All Items' code, or possibly by fiddling around in the Debug
Mode, which I'm doing now. I doubt it's available during the
game, but I didn't find it very useful. |
22. More Extractomania
(IV)
Sender:
Zenprime |
|
Q: Okay,
guys your site really "Stands tall and shakes the Heavens."
But I was wondering, what tools and proccess did you use to extract
the movies from the Xenogears discs? If the tools are file heavy
please send them to me, and I would like the complete dos commands
too. Thanks, and oh yeah, Kick ass! |
|
Hyuga: How many times must
we tell you? Telling us we're great doesn't help you get posted.
Oh, and we can't send the files, since all extraction methods
are secrets. You can view the movies with LUNAR, or with the
GameShark's Debug Mode. I found the movie viewer! |

Q: I´ve
a little tips for the card games, not big though, but if u pause
the game during playing the card game u will have time to think
out where the cards should be (much easier). |
|
Hyuga: Thanks. Maybe I'll
use that someday. If only I didn't have the GameShark to grab
all my items now. Seriously, I use that thing to get me items
when I'm being lazy (yes, only after I've beaten it normally).

AFTERTHOUGHTS

 Instead of a Mailbag next week, we're
having the Mailbag Awards. I'd have them done this week, but
I was strapped for time. Oh well.
I know there's more of you who read this then those who send
me letters, so how about more of you folks send me letters? Don't
worry, I won't bite. Actually, I'd like some more intelligent
letter writers. I know you're out there. So, to get the ball
rolling, here's a new topic for the week after the next. Music.
Tell me your favorite Xenogears song(s) (choose up to three),
and maybe your favorite videogame song(s) too. As well as why
they're your favorite. The best written letters will be posted.
One word: Creid! All Xenogears fans, go get
this album. I've heard all the MP3s. and I just ordered the album,
and it's excellent. Go on, get it. You know you want it.
Well, now that this is over, the only thing left to say is
'Adios'.
Adios.
