Xenogears is a JRPG developed and published by Squaresoft. It came out 1998 for the Playstation 1.
The game is about a young man named Fei who lives in the small village of Lahan. But when a squad of robotic war machines called 'Gears' crash land in Lacan an unfortunate event changes Fei's life completely...
The game's most outstanding feature is it's very deep and complex story heavily influenced by Animes like Neon Genesis Evangelion and Ghost in the Shell. It handles topics like religion and human relationship very critical.
Unfortunately Square decided to use some of Xenogears budget for their mediocre 8th installment of Final Fantasy. The result was a major change in story telling from CD1 to CD2. While you play out most of the plot on CD1, CD2's storytelling is more like a book and rushes through the story, unfortunately.
Currently there is no sequel planned, even though many people would appreciate it more than a new fancy, flashy and shallow Final Fantasy.

The probably most overrated villain from the probably most overrated game Final Fantasy 7.
Even though he is a villian and an oh so evil genetically mutated madman, all he did was backstabbing a weak girl, burning down a tiny village and guiding a giant rock to the planet to be killed by a spikey haired emo kid and his friends in the end.
He also features the typical disorders of modern JRPG/Anime characters like huge ass swords, bishie look, an oh so tragic past, belts, zippers and leather.
His deep and complex ambition is to become a god. Duh. He also has an oedipus complex.
