Dear members of Godsibb,

Happy one year! Isn’t everything grand? We have completely re hauled the website and added tons of new content, just for you. I honestly don’t know where to begin, so much has been added, most of it thanks to your generous content contributions. I hope that everyone finds this useful and that everyone enjoys the new site design. I wanted it to feel dynamic and next-generation… like something you don’t see on fan websites. Without further to do, here is a list of the new content!

• Excerpts from the Xenosaga III Database by ChaosEmerald
• High definition Xenosaga III cutscene rips by GoldenEyeDS
• A complete Xenosaga III NPC dialogue script by Kyla
• ES battle avatars by GoldenEyeDS
• A manga viewer with doujinshi from Rin Uzuki’s website Ramsus-Kun
• A KOS-MOS dating simulation game by Jintoki

For the past year, you, the members have kept us going as a site, and as a community. I only wish to make Godsibb a superior fan experience this year, and for many to come.

What you see today is only a preview of our future.

With love,

Admin Jessi

On 7/17/10 we celebrate our one year anniversary! Be prepared for:

-New content
-New events
-An upgraded website
-New skins
-New pages
…and more!

However, because we will have to upgrade the website, be prepared for an extended outage of the homepage from 7/14/10 to 7/17/10. Minor random forum closures may also happen during that time.

Thank you all for supporting Godsibb.net and helping it reach it’s one year anniversary!

Hey everybody, we’ve got some exciting news.  :3 Sefie of Xenolegacy has offered to team up with us!
What this means for you guys is that their extended info database and gallery will gradually end up here, so don’t be alarmed if you see duplicate info showing up all of a sudden.  We’re bro’s.  :3

Also, we’d like to make a post to credit to MissNysha of deviantart who was responsible for the reconstruction of KOS-MOS that ended up in one of our top banners (the original image has Shion overlayed over KOS-MOS and this reconstruction wasn’t done by us. Sorry for the mixup! D:

Alsooo, the fanfiction archive has been updated with three previously unposted fics by Princess Artemis! Take a looksee!

Today, thanks to GoldeneyeDS, we have the addition of the PAL version of the Xenosaga Episode II booklet. For those not savvy on what PAL is, it’s Europe’s game and media format. It reads in English, so it’s probably more useful for those players who are actually missing their booklets than picture value, but it’s also neat to compare the differences. To me this was the better cover, I always feel like the US cover is crowded when I look at it. Anyway it is quite interesting and I encourage you to take a peek at it here.

In other news, I’m happy to announce that I’m working on an official revamp of the site. I promise it will be 1000x better, with new written content, new quizzes, and an updated trivia section. Which, I’m sorry I haven’t kept up with by the way. I also need to get Albedo to stop pestering those Kirschwassers and get his butt back to replying to your letters. But you have to approach crazy albinos a certain way, or else bad things happen.

Lastly, I’m sorry to report that our host has jacked up the price by three dollars per month. I have enough money to pay for one year, but I would like to go for the better deal and pay for two, getting a monthly discount. The 2 year plan is $198.00. I need $79.00 to reach the goal. If any of you would like to help, I’ve installed a PayPal button to the sidebar. You can also click the one below.

Anywhere between 2 and 10 dollars is extremely helpful. Also, anyone who donates 15 dollars or more will get a custom -simple- WordPress heme made by me and 5gb hosting provided I have enough room. This is for a limited time and only valid for donations made before the 24 of May, 2010.

Thank you very much for your consideration. I work hard to keep the site and the forums updated and running. And with Xenoblade on the horizon, I’m very excited about the sites future as an established Xeno fansite and community.

–Jessi

So I’m sure everyone hip in savvy in the XS community has seen that trailer and heard the news that Monado: Begining of The World has officially been renamed Xenoblade. You also probably know that it is made by Monolith, the same development team that made Xenosaga under Namco and Xenogears under Square. This one is being made under Nintendo for the Wii. What does this mean? SPIRITUAL PREDECESSOR TIME! Let’s just hope they don’t screw it up. I have faith yet, but I know some of you have none and think it’s just a sales conspiracy. Which you may be right, but I say don’t judge until the fat scientist in a hover chair sings!

With that exciting news out of the way, I’d like to thank Kare_Reiko for some beautiful Anthology scans!
You can view them here.

I apologize if I missed anything. My life has been a roller coaster ride lately, between school, family, relationships, and mehh… But I’m still pretty dedicated to updating this site on a regular basis! In fact, I would have done it earlier, but server updates prevented me from doing so. Anyway that’s all I have for today!
Jessi

Congratulations LadyTwi for winning our holiday contest!

OK GUYS. I have quite a lengthy update today. Firstly, thanks to Acalaplz, we have aquaried the cutscenes for Episodes I and II, though I need to confirm a few things about her Episode III upload. Next, Primantis has generously uploaded all 12 episodes of The Animation. I should give that dude a gold metal! Katimus_Prime, my partner in crime, has also uploaded the DNA Anthology which features Cherenkov in a battle with Bunnie. XD

Finally, you may notice I added three banners to the rotation. Jin, Gaignun, and Wilhelm may now appear as you browse the site.

I honestly wanted to get more done. I wanted to update the trivia and add the female results date quiz by now, but things have been pretty stressful at my house. Bear with me please, as I’m trying to do what I can with the time I have.

–Jessi

…to donate content!

That’s correct, Godsibb.net is looking for more content and media donators! Any articles, guides, character profiles, scans and MP3 files you have will be used! We are still trying to fill up the character database, and we are also looking for transcripts of the Xenosaga 3 database. Any interesting articles? We’ll post those and your fan fiction/art as well! Anything Xenosaga or Xenogears related, we’ll take. And give you credit of course. Here are just a few of the benefits of donating content to Godsibb.net:

-A colored name on the forum
-A larger avatar size and expanded PM box
-Credit and glory
-An @godsibb.net email address if desired (current donators: if you want this, PM me)
-Input into the further creation of the community

Please note that we are especially looking for written content, and while media we don’t already have will be posted (and given the same benefits), written work takes priority. If you have anything to send, please email Admin@godsibb.net or PM me on the forums!

Anyway on with the update…

I didn’t plan on doing an update till after Christmas, but I figured it had been a while and you guys needed to know I was alive. So today, I updated Mattoid’s Etymology and the Fanfiction Archive with some fanfics by both Mattoid and Princess Artemis! Great stuff indeed.

Also without further to do…

Congratulations Stitchedmoon for winning contest #2!

I also appologize for being incredibly late on announcing that…

You might also want to take a look at the Holiday Free For All as well.

Anyway, thanks for reading!

–Jessi

NEWS FLASH: Margulis had eyebrows!

And Jessi has updated the fanart gallery with some wonderful pictures by our very own Princess Artemis and Katimus_Prime!

I also added the new game: go visit the Triviasaga… a trivia game for the Xenosaga fans! The final winners of the guess-a-character were Holy chaos! and chaos and Order. (Whats with the name chaos and being particularly good at that game?!)

The Ask a URTV page also received a new letter and a total organizational rehall.

Soon, I’ll have some fanfiction updates and a special surprise or two… but for now, enjoy this picture of Allen in a very spiffy suit, by Princess Artemis:

Hey guys! I’m here as promised, bringing you those awesome contributions from our wonderful members Primantis and Noctisheart.

Noctisheart given us a downloadable and awesome copy of the Europe only Xenosaga Episode I Movie Disk featuring the most important cutscenes from the first game, formatted like an easy-to-understand movie!

Secondly, I have a generous contribution of time and effort from Primantis: the Xenosaga III Character Viewer in High Def!

I picked images of KOS-MOS Tertiary Weapons System, because they really give you a feel of the quality of these images. Click for full view.

Lastly, there’s a technical update to report: all fanfiction and articles now have comments enabled! I also did some organizational edits to the music section, though nothing new was added.

Anyway, I’m still organizing the game… we’re going with Trivia though! Peace out!
