  • Holy shit, it gives me chills. :O

  • BEST GAME IN THE WORLD the graphics r amazin. the music is fonominale. what else can i say? this game is beast

  • my favorite video game :)

  • 11 days ago i completed Tales Of Symphonia, it's the most exciting and intense rgp i have ever played in my life!, i spent over 142 hours on it!, Tales Of Symphonia had all the major ingredients for a one of a kind game, nice play control, colorful sharp graphics, larger the life characters, well thought out dialogue, good voice acting, unforgettable cutscenes, emotional charged music and most importantly the well written story that had the best storyflow ever told. I will never sale my copy!.

  • I love this game SO MUCH. It's one of my favorite jrpgs, tied with the Wii version of Okami. I'm happy that this is posted in such great quality. Now I can download it off YT for an amv I'm thinking about :)

  • This game is epiclly nostalgic

  • I can't even count how many times I've played through this game. I'm playing through it even still lol

  • this game was everything an RPG should be. 

  • I wonder how someone could dislike this :/

    By the way, this game is the best game ever.

  • The first part sounded like Golden Sun: The Lost Age's second World Map theme!

  • this might sound like some pussy shit, but at one point this game made me cry. when you start crying that's when you know the game is good (:

  • @alexthenuge Don't worry! Your DEFFINATLY not the only one who cried!!! I cried TWICE!! It's a pretty epic game

  • @alexthenuge either that or ittss sooooo bad that you start crying that you spent your money on a shitty game which is not the case with this game. This game is EPIC AS FAAHHHKKK!

  • has anyone noticed that the element of lightning seems to be almost a symbol of the enemy in this game? kvar, the murderer of lloyds mom was a lightning wizard, volt, the summon spirit who killed many people is like sheenas mortal enemy and hes a lightning ball. yuan is an enemy for most of the game hes like a rival to lloyd and hes a lightning fighter. kratos is one of the main enemies and his primary element is lightning when you fight him. maybe im just crazy but...lightning is evil in tales.

  • The moment I the music started playing all I could think of was Golden Sun.

    Sakuraba's pretty damn good.

  • I can't be the only one who notices the similarity between this theme and the Golden Sun: Lost Age overworld theme....

  • Winning!! :D

  • One of the best intros to one of the best games, ever! So much better than the Jap version.

  • love tales of symphonia =D

  • I cried at the end of the game :(

  • i love this version i saw the jap one and not that good it doesnt have the hardcore awesomeness that this does

  • EPIC WIN!~~~~~~~~~~~

  • a remake for 3DS = WIN

  • Oh man oh man oh man, i love this game. I miss it. I should start playing it again. :]

  • show me...the power...of your exsphere

  • i didnt even know there was a tales of game on gamecube! im getting it.

  • I played ToS first on gamecube.... maybe paid $20 for it then...........now I MISS it SOOOOO much and I priced it for PS2 and its like $70-$100 . ..... If you get a chance to get into this series of games this is in my view the best of ALL.

  • Best intro ever made.

    And Regal is my favorite character!

  • I remember getting this game for Christmas, and I had never played a game like it before; I just asked for it because it looked nice in a catalog. I was sure I wasn't going to like it because I was used to the Legend of Zelda fare. Boy was I wrong! I'm glad I got it because it is one of the best games I have ever played!

  • *has a spaz attack* MY FAVORITE GAME! OF ALL TIME! As long as I has a Wii, and the two gamecube discs are still working, and I have a gamecube controller, I shall continue to play. :) I has finished this in like over 40 times in the span of 5-6 years.

  • i have it lucky

  • 13 people wouldnt know a good game if it hit them on the head

  • Sorry to spam, but the Smithsonian Art Museum is having a video game presentation. You can vote on your favorite game, and Tales of Symphonia is on there!

  • I love this game. It strikes me now that the opening does actually contain a whole lot of spoilers, thought you might not know that until you've played through the parts they spoiled, thus not spoiling anything. It also strikes me that they've really put a whole lot of work into this. The intro shows a lot of fully animated stuff that is actually in the game as normal cutscenes.

    Great opening for my favourite game of all time.

  • the ending of this game is fucked up.... really awesome game though

  • The only jrpg that I've really loved, not including the first pokemon

  • Kratos is pwner. It sucks that you have to kill zelos in order to use him for the final battle though. I liked zelos.

  • @OokamiTaishou no you dont, there is three alternate endings, one zelos dies, one he betrays cruxis, the other he survives,

  • @Politicalfishtv How do you get him to survive without recieving him instead of Kratos? I have already played through the ending where he betrays cruxis and the ending where you kill him.

  • @OokamiTaishou In flanoir, when collette and genis want to talk, if you refuse both of them Kratos will call lloyd outside and you will get kratos in the end instead of Zelos, hope that helped

  • @AngelofDeath2178 It gives you the option of talking to three people. and then if you turn all three down kratos will talk. But following that path will kill zelos. You can't lose to him or else it is game over.

  • @OokamiTaishou Thanks for clearing that up, It has been SO long, since i've played ToS haha

  • The best Tales of Game ever :)

  • God bless this game.

    *_*

  • Me + this = fetal position

  • I have fond memories of playing this in early middle school, my friend and I brought it up north to his cabin and it got snowed in, so we spent an entire weekend holed up in the basement playing this.

  • BEST GAME EVER MADE!!!!

  • I LOVE THIS GAME

    i am stuck on how to get to the steal of fire though :/

  • @KatyPerryFan587 i meant seal not steal

  • @KatyPerryFan587 seal of fire you mean? and I forgot, I haven't played this game for awhile but, i'm going to soon, if you want I could make a video or videos helping you if I figure it out again?

  • I have played this game more often than any other game, and have probably spent more hours on it than on any other game. It's just seriously epic. I love this game to death. Still keep my copy on Gamecube wrapped in plastic so it's next to mint condition, lol.

  • This. game. is. AMAZING :D

  • 13 people do not appreciate art

  • the memories...:)

  • Am I the only one that actually enjoyed this opening more than the Japanese one? It gives it a really epic, expansive feel.

  • @bobbypretzel it was better, totally. it suits the game way more

  • @bobbypretzel I like it better too :)

  • @bobbypretzel Hey, can you tell me the name of the soundtrack played, when you fight Pronyma the second time? It sounds just like this.

  • I just realized that at 0:55 the girl Zelos looks at is Colette.

  • @uberawesomecarol ooooh i get what scene that is now! I never realised haha

  • Top 10 games of all time: 1. Tie between Zelda: OoT and TP, 2. Chrono Trigger, 3. FF7, 4. FF6, 5. FF9, 6. Super Mario RPG, 7. Final Fantasy Adventure, 8. Tales of Symphonia, 9. Super Castlevania IV, 10. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

  • @genesisSOC

    I never understood why lists of the best games fail to remember Chrono Trigger. It was DEFINITELY better than all the Final Fantasies. And Final Fantasy is a fucking good series.

  • @bobbypretzel I wouldn't say that it's DEFINITELY better, there's quite a fine line between them. I think it DEFINITELY deserves to be in the top 5 best games, but I can understand if someone likes FF more than it. I find it better but that's my personal opinion. :) And I love this opening more than the Japanese one. You're absolutely right on the epic, expansive feel. It feels immerse, like you're being drawn into a grand adventure.

  • Anyone know what the song here is called?

  • I LOVE THIS GAME

  • I miss playing this!

  • Comment removed

  • the epic tale of so many flawless elements and a story filled with excitement, adventure, and truly outstandingly-made plot twists...ladies and gentlemen, I give you, Tales of Symphonia!

  • 1:10 I just realized...that's a winged bug on Regal's hand cuffs, isn't it? I always thought it was two ends of a tied cloth bracelet or something and wondered why it moved like that.

  • This is really the first time were i can say theenglish intro kicks the japanese intro ass. The j pop didn't fit well IMO.

  • @dhay03 totally agreed

  • @dhay03 Agreed. I saw a lot of people saying how awesome the Japanese intro was, but I'm just not feeling it. With this one, it seems like they actually composed the music to match with what was going on in the opening.

  • this is my favorite games, the first time to play in my first round, i finished in 109 hours.

  • OMG i loved this game! I love the second one too but I have a question is the other "Tales of..." games any good? Im afraid of ruining this epicly epic (lol) game with some bad later ons....the second ToS was pretty awesome too tho so it got a passing grade in my view =D

  • @RiolusAura I liked Phantasia, the plot wasn't as intricate and neither was the battle system but it was pretty awesome.

  • @WhatIddoforpie lol k i'll try that one out...i tried Tales of the Abyss and hated it because my fave char died (no shock there but still)

  • @RiolusAura orly? I've never played abyss... or vespiria or eternia, tho I hear they're awesome (as Tales games I'm not surprised :P)

  • @WhatIddoforpie lol same, ive only tried Symphonia and my friends Abyss xD thinking of getting Vespiria cuz i heard theres evil chibi twins or something and evil twins are fun to fight xDDDD btw ive never heard of Phantasia b4 lol, ive heard of the other 2 you said but i gotta look up Phantasia now xD

  • @RiolusAura I'd play Vespiria but it's for the Xbox360 (I think, lol) and i don't have one and it's not really worth it for one game...

  • @WhatIddoforpie The battle system was more intricate to Phantasia than 80% of the entire Tales games.

  • @Romalian wait what? did you say the vespiria one is more intricate or the phantasia one? That "to Phantasia" didn't really fit in the sentence, did you mean to say of?

  • @WhatIddoforpie I meant to say to = in*

  • @Romalian oh... I don't see how, auto shield, no manual mode, you can't run whenever you want, fleeing's more annoying. Explain why you think that it's more intricate

  • @WhatIddoforpie I'm not sure what you mean by Manual Mode.

    I've played Legendia and Destiny, two sequels to the game. Phantasia had it where you could like combo your attacks on the enemies and whatnot. Then it turned into just > Attack attacks once or twice. ^ attacks up, down attack attacks down. And while you do this, you have severe lag in between attacks.

    Very disappointing, I thought.

  • @Romalian and you play tales games >_>?

    Auto: Total control of the AI over your character

    Semi-Auto: Partial Control of your character

    Manual: Total control of your character

  • @LproKira Yes.

  • @RiolusAura Actually, I think the Tales of Symphonia series is the best there is.

  • @crazy4sian haha i have to say i agree...i tried Abyss out but none of the chars were all that funny cept Guy xD symphonia has Genis AND Zelos xD

  • What is the tune called in this part?

  • THE best game I have ever played. Doesn't get old - even the 5th time through.

  • Namco should make a remake of this game! And I don't mean like the PS2 version I mean like a more recent one! One with the original voice actors!

  • i like tales..my favorite one is this and Tales Of Vesperia,for me though its only fun to play once.

  • I'm going to have to break out my old copy and play this for a fifth or sixth time.

  • This is my favorite game of all time, hands down!

    I got it when it had JUST come out, and I still play it. I'll never get bored of it.

    I wish I could say the same about the sequel. It was horrid... The plot line really irked me, As did the new voice actors, and ALL the new characters. Especially Emil.

    Anyway, amazing game, amazing theme. I love ToS C:

  • I never EVER got bored of this game. I love the intro, especially with the vocal-less music. It just sounds much more adventurous and emotional without words, thus letting you peacefully take in the beautiful effects and animated illustrations it provides.

    One of my most favorite games ever. I'm glad I was in a huge RPG mood when the Gamecube came around, otherwise I would have never picked up this game. I STILL play it even to this day, it's so fun and deep. Long live Tales of Symphonia!

  • I'll always prefer this one to Dawn of a New World...In the 2nd one, Zelos sounds retarded. You hardly play as the old charecters. Marta and Emil bore me to death. The Sheena and Zelos "flirting"(we all know they loveeee each other), or bickering, what ever you wanna call it, was just...weird...And there was hardly any. And they also kinda changed the look of the charecters. I preferred the cute fluffy charecters from the first one.

  • This game made me feel thousands of things. I really felt inside the skin of every one last of the characters.

    I owe so much to this videogame. For me, the best one ever.

    :D

  • Storywise, it was good enough. You know, covering what happened after the worlds were made into one again. Though, gameplay wise, symphonia character sucks. You're better off with monsters than them.

  • Comment removed

  • is the angel at the begiging mithos or collete?

  • @meepfeet It's Mithos in his yggdrasill form

  • @MarinaMaxwellYuy I dunno cuz I've always thought it was collete until last week :)

  • Even though I know a lot of you will disagree with me, I have to say that I enjoyed the english opening more, without vocals. It just seems to fit the opening more and capture the epicness that was this game.

  • @PimDiffy For any other game I'd disagree, but Symphnia ENG opening is spot on.

  • yep. best game ever. sequel scared me. but still played it just because it's tales of symphonia

  • greatest game ive ever played in my life, but sequel was bad

  • Spectacular voice actors, amazing gameplay, brilliant graphics, and one of the best stories I've ever seen behind a game.. This is my favorite game of all time! I'm glad there's no real end to the game, or I'd be crushed with the sequels. My highest average party level is actually 287 :D

  • I propose for the next tales of game should be called tales of life. Hey can anyone else think of a great name for a tales of game?

  • I like the original jap version more

    What is KoR? I keep on hearing about it in other opening videos for the tales of games.

  • Actualyy in my opinion thus is the top three fir best games in the WORLD

  • This is in the top 3 for best gamecube games

  • The story..the characters..the Gameplay..This game is just Awesome <3

  • People who think Dawn of a New World is better than this..ARE RETARDED.

  • @xMari95x well it really depends what type of game u like.

    ToS= awesome plot, awesome voice actors/actresses, awesome music, awesome characters, etc.

    KoR= lots of character development, focus on 2 main characters, romance, better fight system (or at least more complex), etc.

  • I love the intro! I watched it over and over!

    I'm totally syched, 'cause I've ordered this game on my GC (GameCube), and it should get here either tomorrow or the day after (pleeeease be tomorrow)!

    Ugh I can't wait!

  • i used 2 have this game

  • Epic... if only there was a full version. Love it. <3

  • this is like the best video game ever... I wish the creaters of this game knew how cool it was so that they would keep making them. And with the same voices (Tales of Symphonia rocks!) :D

  • this music sounds like golden sun the lost age

  • @OgnarPliskin

    Same composer

  • llloovve thhiis ggaammee

  • best game ever of tales should rerelease it with really good graphic lik mabey ps3?

  • This was the best Tales game IMO.

  • I like this opening more than the Japanese one.

  • Yeah!

    This is one of the best games ever!!!

  • I really need to finish this game. D8

  • the best game it sad that my niece break it

  • One of the best tales ever!!!! TALES FOR LIFE

  • Is there some one who know the name of the soundtrack or music

  • Motoi Sakuraba composed the soundtrack to this great game.

  • Its one of the best games i've ever played, if not the best. I've spent more than 700 hours playing it (no kidding) and i never seem to get bored of it.

  • Omg your like me i have like 1 account with like 500 hours, and in total for all the times iv played its like 1000+ hours(I know rediculous, I must have a lot of free time) but i honestly think it is a treasure to have, and like you i nvr get bored of it

  • Also Tales Of Vesperia is a great game, but i prefer tos.

    man, i totally agree with you.

  • @BrixIlBarbone Speaking of which. I really want to play ToV. I guess i'll havo to find a way to play it.

  • @mugiwara666 That's because there's no real end to the game!

  • @mugiwara666 it probably takes people 700 hours to finish the damn thing :P not that im complaining. its too epic

  • @OmgItzMathew well, when it comes to finishing it, that was a very long time ago, the rest of the playtime is merely because the game is just too awesome!

  • @mugiwara666 Completely agree. I've beaten the game at least 6 times and logged about 500 minutes in total. But yet, I've never gotten bored from both this game, and Dawn of the New World.

  • Could anyone help me everytime im fighting a monster genis just stands there i keep on pressing all-out on the d-pad but he still stands there.HELP!!!

  • make sure he is not on manual or semi manual but on auto

  • thanks

  • Awesome video

  • one of the best games i played

  • Best Game Ever!!!

  • OMG what a great game !

    I remember when I played it on my gamecube 3 years ago. Such a good feeling ...

    Bon je continue en francais xD que de souvenir en regardant cet opening je suis submergé par l'emotion et la nostalgie.

    Pour tout les fan je vous conseil l'anime tales of the abyss !!

    Sinon la suite de TOS vient de sortir en france ... si seulement j'avais le temps d'y joué ...

  • I LOVE THIS GAME !!!!

    68 heures de jeu !!!!!

    Tales of symphonia is good but i don't like kratos !!! xD

  • Kratos is da best!!! D:

  • I don't like Kratos he is a " traitre " ( in french)

    I love Colette and Zelos who is arogant !!!

    This good in English my english is so...dad !!!

    So ! I hate Kratos long life for Zelos xD

    ...Mmm.. So who like you in tales of symphonia (but not kratos)

  • I have this game but my cousin who owned it lost all the discs except 1 D:

  • i have this game on my save file for my gamnecube still and iv played it through 57 times i must say this is the best RPG iv ever played and its insainly epic!!!!!!

  • It sounds a bit like golden sun...

  • Loved the opening. loved the game. Enough said.

  • aweome!

  • This is my favorite game of all time. Everytime I think of it I want to turn on my gamecube and play it once again. The game was just great in so many ways.

  • Motoi Sakuraba is god!!!

  • EPIC!! and so is tales of vesperia. i love the characters in both games.

    but have you seen the characters of "tales of graces"? UGHHH so bad

  • Tales of Symphonia was one of my favorite games of all time but the sequel was terrible in my opinion...it lacked so many things that the first one did especially missing most of the old voice actors from the first game

  • I totally agree.

    And Kratos was my fav character ever... so upset that I only heard him for 2 seconds and saw him for a minute in a sidequest *sigh* really the sequel did not even compare...

    And I agree with the voice actor thing. Lloyds new one did not suit him at all

  • @CoolGuyyyyyyyyy Tales was amazing, almost perfect, and while Dawn may not have been, it brought us more insight to the original characters, which I thought was really cool. It's a love it or hate it thing, but personally, just the chance for more SheeLloyd makes me love it. XD

  • @CoolGuyyyyyyyyy It's because the good half of the Tales team was working on Vesperia instead. :/ Tales of Symphonia is number 8 in my top 10 favorite games of all time.

  • @CoolGuyyyyyyyyy Also getting rid of the open world map was one thing that pissed me off. I loved being able to run around and fight random monsters, flying on the Riehards (especially loved that theme song), and being able to find treasure on the map. Another thing that pissed me off was the fact that the game starts out where Lloyd is portrayed as a villain and the main character is some whimpy little boy who needs some cat like monster to give him power to fight.

  • Excellent RPG :D.

  • i love this game!

  • man this game was the rpg that had the biggest impression on me

  • ai love this game

  • I prefer this opening over the other ones.

    Anyone know where I can get it?

  • this music sounds a lot like some music from the Golden Sun games

  • Yeah, its similar to the map music in GS:TLA after the parties combine.

  • for some reason i loved this tales of symphonia but this last one that came out i hated

  • Lloyd all the way!

  • this game is so much better then the second game. i dont like lloyd's voice at the second game.^^

  • i know its a shame that only the women who does collete voice(forget her name)was able to return for the second game.

  • that's so true.

  • yeah lloyd's voice is different in the second which really sucks.well for me it does^_^

  • Most people like would agree with you... That and Zelos.

  • yup ^_^
