Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars  Konami2001Insultingly easy SRPG. Leave this one for the kiddies. The battles get redundant very fast and since all you do in this game is fight, it becomes a problem. The story *YAWN* basically follows the classic mecha-genre storyline:
1) Boy finds robot.
2) Boy is mysteriously able to pilot robot.
3) Boy kicks ass with robot and saves a 'mysterious' girl.

Xenosaga Episode III: Also sprach Zarathustra  Namco (Monolith Soft)2006[i]Also sprach Zarathustra[/i] translates to [i]Thus spoke Zarathustra[/i], actually the name of a book by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche.***A year has passed since Xenosaga II. Shion has resigned her post at Vector Industries after realizing that the company is deeply connected to the cause of the Gnosis phenomenon. She has thus joined Scientia, an underground organization, in order to unveil Vector's true objectives. The development of KOS-MOS is to be cancelled, and a mysterious android, T-elos appears to be taking KOS-MOS' place. Shadows of suspicion and conspiracy surround T-elos. Uncover the future of mankind in this much-anticipated conclusion to the Xenosaga trilogy.***The story takes place one year after Xenosaga II, a mystery android T-Eleos will show up; this time the execution of the battles will be a lot faster; and there will be new deadblow techniques.

Xenosaga Episode II: Jenseits von Gut und Böse  Namco (Monolith Soft)2004[i]Jenseits von Gut und Böse[/i] translates to [i]Beyond Good & Evil[/i], actually the name of a book by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche.***Devastate your opponents with innovative cooperative combat techniques, refined boost systems and a unique zone attack/zone break mechanic. Engage your enemies with larger, more powerful mechs, now featuring their own independent, tactical battle system. Customize your party with a vast array of power-ups, advanced attacks and over 100 different skills. Challenge more than 30 side quests for hours of action-packed adventure.
Features:

Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht  Namco (Monolith Soft)2002[i]Der Wille zur Macht[/i] translates to [i]The will to power[/i], actually the name of a book by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (although published after his death by his sister,Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche, after [i]heavy[/i] editing, twisting Friedrich's ideas).***Xenogears was one of my favorite RPGs of all time. Imagine my excitement when I found out that they were making a prequel! When I finally played Xenosaga... well... it was kind of like being in Purgatory (or at least my image of it)--it's not so bad, not good, but not bad. Xenosaga is kind of like watching (yes watching) a 'playable' movie. The story gets needlessly complicated and deviant, I wasn't even sure what they were talking about half the time. Lets just say I won't be playing--I mean watching--Xenosaga Episodes II & III when they're released.

X³: Terran Conflict  Deep Silver (Egosoft)2013 Linuxlabelminimizeminimize
X³: Terran Conflict  Deep Silver (Egosoft)2008As a expansion/remake of X3: Reunion, improves a lot its interface and controls (now its a little complex but very user-friendly) and adds a few interesting campaigns (the previous game was heavily war-oriented in gameplay) Also, the graphics are nicer.
Nevertheless, it still features clunky message and mission systems, making it only a little better than the original game.

4 of 10***X³: Terran Conflict is a brand new, stand-alone game set in the universe of X³. It is the culmination of the X trilogy, with a grand finale that takes us all the way back to Earth's own solar system. Gamers can take on the roles of different characters in the X universe, or of a Terran military pilot, and experience a multitude of stories in the largest X universe ever featured - for X³: Terran Conflict will offer more missions than any other X game before. Meanwhile, X³: Terran Conflict will pose questions such as: How has Earth changed in all these years? And how will relations between Earth and its counterparts in the X universe develop?

X³: Reunion  Deep Silver (Egosoft)2005A game about the vastness of the space in a very big universe filled with all kinds of stuff (as ships, stations, asteroids...) and comprising a lot of different ways to play the game (militar, merchant, raider, police, transporter, salvager...) Its complexity and freedom are almost infinite, and has very clever features as speeding the time (for long travels) and very well-crafted reputation and market systems.

But there are 3 big issues with the game:
-The interface and controls are straight horrendous, forcing to employ the auto-pilot more than it should.
-The mission panel is very spartan and doesn´t records any indication of a possible mission (only points at already signed contracts, not featuring indications recieved in messages)
-Theres only 1 message log (important and worth-saving messages merge with a gigantic clutter of mundane conversations and tips)
These 3 problems make the in-game progress very difficult and immensely slow, and the game very boring/frustrating to play.

3 of 10***Greatest flaw in this that I see is that there's no task tracker. You're forced to remember and make notes yourself of what you agree to do and what others tell you to do, though you can review the message log as you like, it's hardly intuitive. This is especially bad considering the game's a sandbox.***Latest version: 2.5 (as of 2007)***[b]Minimum:[/b]

X³: Albion Prelude  Egosoft2013 Linuxlabelminimizeminimize
X³: Albion Prelude  Egosoft2011As the expansion of X3: Terran Conflict, it improves the merge between war, market and diplomatic systems, making factions weaker if its economy becomes stagnant or making easier to get the help of the enemy of your enemy, and many other new ways to interact with the different species. Also includes a lot of new items, ships, etc...
Sadly, the game is still very slow and frustrating because not only the mission system (almost the same, but with more chained missions that "hide" this radical flaw), but because the uncareness of the game for the player when you finish the tutorial (its difficult to encounter feasible missions or even something relevant to do)

4 of 10***X3: Albion Prelude is the latest game in the X3 space game series. TRADE, FIGHT, BUILD, THINK in a living and breathing universe. A new plot and many additions to the open free-form gameplay.

[Zerothis]***More than 20 years have passed since Kyle Brennan, test pilot of the X-Shuttle, was catapulted into unexplored space.
Now, take up the role of Julian Gardna, convicted of the theft of a transport ship, and given a second chance. From this point on, the choices are all yours.
In the immersive universe of X2, there are no rules. Return to a life of piracy and crime, build your own trading empire, join the ranks of mercenaries, or become an ace combat pilot, commanding a fleet of starships from the bridge of your carrier. Any path is open to you.
If you wish to, follow the evolving storyline, and take your place among the greats of the universe, or blaze your own path to glory.

But beware. Something is moving in the remote areas of the galaxy.

X2 features stunning graphics, beyond anything seen before in the space genre.
Open ended gameplay allows you to choose your path freely, in a universe that would take you almost 2 days playing time just to fly from one end to the other. Pilot any of over 60 classes of ship ranging from the tiny Argon Discoverer, a one man fighter, all the way to the Teladi Albatross, a huge carrier class ship over 2km long, capable of carrying a squadron of fighters, all at your command.
A complex yet intuitive interface allows complete control of your empire. Be it a trading fleet of merchant vessels flying between the factories and stations littering space, or a fighter wing of deadly Split Raptors.

X-COM: Interceptor Microprose1998Llevando la jugabilidad de X-COM al espacio, en un sistema de defensa mucho más activo (tienes que ir a buscar a los aliens, ya no vale con esperar a que aparezcan) y con un control en forma de simulador de combate espacial sencillo de controlar pero con muchos elementos a tener en cuenta (armas disponibles, conteo de misiles, tipo y número de nave rival, situación de los compañeros)
Aunque no tiene esa dificultad característica de la saga (es más asequible), si que plantea los suficientes retos para ser un juego intrigante y divertido.

8 de 10***They're back...only this time the heinous aliens are out to destroy Earth and rule the new frontier. As X-COM commander, it's your sole duty to protect humanity and the prized mining operations in outer space. You must strategically equip your X-COM fighters, amass a formidable arsenal and then fulfill your mandate by going head-to-head with the devious element. The action is fast. And the opposing forces are wicked. But if you are smart, diligent and quick, you will prevail in a masterfully fought campaign to save our planet from perilous collapse.

Features:

* Wreak complete destruction in an addictive and seamless combination of combat action and strategy.
* Mastermind your plan by purchasing equipment, hiring pilots and researching new technologies.
* Pilot your own X-COM attack ship in a face-to-face 3D real-time first person environment.

X Rebirth Deep Silver (Egosoft)2013At least they changed the mission panel! And the messages have tags! :D

Now its a very playable game, easier to control, with an average difficult curve (not as stepped as previous games), and even prettier than before (specially planets, that feel enormous and look mesmerizing) Also, space highways and station/ship interiors are some of the new neat additions that makes it feel alive.

I miss the complexity of weapons and station systems, but its a little trade-off in comparation with the major improvements.
