Anyone else notice that the Gamestop exclusive was only for about a week or two? I've seen this for sale at other places...

Xenoblade is probably the best game I've played this generation. I would say it deserves all the praise it gets and more. =P

I'll formulate some longer thoughts later, but at 75 hours I'm inclined to jump into the camp of thinking that this game is freaking incredible.  I'm actually surprised because the hype was so high and I'm often let down by games where that happens.  After almost 2 years from Japanese release I'm inclined to say that it was worth the wait.
