  • The Symphonia plot had human farms, Abyss was full of kabbalah references, but Vesperia was more focused on corrupt government and politics. The only interesting characters in Vesperia were Raven, Duke and Yeager.

  • @sean6006 that is true :P i like gauche and droit as well cuz there kawaii xD

  • I got goosebumps.

  • should i buy this or lost oddysey?

  • @LcHalez This. For the love of games. This. Or both, if you can afford it.

  • Anyone who argues with me is plain wrong.

    Tales of Symphonia=Fantastic

    Tales of Vesperia=1000 times better.

  • @ToxicToTheMax Uhh...no. Vesperia =big symphonia ripoff, with worse pacing.

  • @ToxicToTheMax

    Up your ass, Vesperia is mediocre at best and Symphonia is good.

    Nah I'm just kidding xD. I havn't played either, I am dying to play this one though.

  • I LOVE this game as for Lost Odyssey it was pretty good. Wasn't perfect but good. And I liked Blue Dragon a lot. I hope we see more RPG'S in the future for the 360 and PS3. I love both systems.

  • The Characters in this game looks very silly and childish, ToS had a bit older charachters that looked less childish than this one

  • @tredecker ... take a step back and fuck your face then maybe play either game? what u jsut said was like man cheese isnt anything liek cheese... tos has a near chibib style lol fail

  • @tredecker Play the game then about halfway through you'll realize this isn't for kids

  • @tredecker: It's not for the KIDDIES AT ALL. Lol! Just play it and half way through....you'll change your mind. ^_^

  • looks hawt! can't wait to but this game and plaaaay it~!!

    guy cecil look a like looks hawt ♥

  • ToS and ToV are both great games in their own way. I say play both games if you can trust me you'll enjoy every second of it.

  • apparently ToS 2 a low budget because of this game...

    And, looking at it now, it looks pretty bad, and makes no sense

  • kinda true

    TOS2 graphics is better than this 1 the charecters klook like midgets in Tov!

  • y is there jap voices in an english trailer? that is funny lol

  • This is because they want 2 stick 2 the original Tales of look. U can't blame them the artwork is superb (Kusoke Fujishima who else could have done this :D) Around 15-16 years these games have been around :)

  • symphonia owns vespairia

    exep for the voicing part

  • @stupogo0

    I'd have to partially disagree on that one. I also like Vesperia a lot more than Symphonia, but I also think that the Vesperia voice acting is far superior. Don't you remember the travesty that was Colette's voice?

  • yes i reember that or how she of all ppl got to keep thier voice actor for the second game

    also my mom walked in on the talks before the final boss and she said that blood girl has such an anyoing voice (i have not killed zelos yet)

  • @stupogo0

    If you do buy the sequel (which I'd still reccomend despite critical failure and moderate fan backlash) you'll find that Colette's voice actor has improved since the original, and that the new cast (particularly Johnny Yong Bosch's character) get pretty good voice talent behind them. That said, they've replaced Zelos, Lloyd and Sheena with really shoddy VAs.

  • ya i have the second game and beet it 2 times second time with twilight palces and that new area side quest done also genius sounds like hes a 10 year old boy in that game the only one that a got a new VA that was somewhat btter was rein

    also the way u type i could pin kyons voice to it and it would fit well

    also u sad that we probably wont get the PS3 remake of TOV

  • @stupogo0

    I'd have to take that bit about Kyon as a compliment. He's my favourite anime character, period.

    Am I sad that we probably won't see PS3 ToV on these shores? As a matter of fact, I don't mind that much. If it came out, I'd have run out of reasons not to buy a PS3, and that would hurt my wallet.

  • Can anyone tell me if this is better than symphonia?

  • For starters, which Symphonia?

    But anyways, I myself feel that it's just a better and newer version of it, cause they're really similar.

    It's build up the same way, only with different names and a bit different storyline, if you know what I mean.

    Ofc the graphics are better, and if you liked Symphonia, you'll definetely love this one.

    ^^,

  • I was talking about the first Symphonia, and i assume that's the one you were talking about too. What do you mean when you say they build up the same way? And since we're here which symphonia is the better one? The first or the second and why?

  • I mean that the fighting system is the same (ofc), the story evolves to the player in the same way, and the world of the game is very alike.

    You know, mana = aer, exsphere = blastia, something makes the mana/aer disappear, and the characters have to fight to get it back, and so on.

    Also, there's the cooking (even the Master Chef), the Inns and shops, costumes and titles.

    Unfortunately I happen to live in Europe, so the 2nd ToS haven't hit the shelves yet, and therefore I have not tried it. =(

  • one of the best games I've ever played, if that helps.

    Have Symphonia for Wii, but wasn't as good as this one. This game is incredibly complex in character and history terms

  • is this also better than the first symphonia, the one for gamecube?

  • I played the 1st ToS on GC, and ToV on Xbox 360, and got used to the controllers really fast.

    But I guess they're not all that different.

    I really enjoyed this game (though I haven't finished it yet), but I can hardly compare them. That's tough.

    But I think this game really is worth the money you pay for it.

    So my advice to you: buy it, and compare yourself.

  • TOS for GC is beeter TOS for wii well phatsa owns TOS for wii

  • i igree

  • Damn... I gotta buy this game.

  • lost odyssey is a HUGE letdown as far as gameplay. and tales games have some of the best storylines in todays RPG's. cant wait for the new FF.

  • @ScribsProduction FF sucks now.

  • Or not, considering Lost Odyssey kinda sucks.

  • Try before you smack. Tales games may not look stellar, but the graphics are often very good, voicing exquisite, and the story is - without exception, so far as I know - very, very deep and very, very spellbinding. These aren't the save-the-princess games. They make you think, and make you understand rather than just play and beat.

    I played Symphonia 3 times. I'd play it again, and again. They are not to be underestimated.

  • haha I too beat symphonia 3 times and I too would do it again again-but my stupid cousin broke the disk (s) :( and now it is no more

  • it just got released in japan for ps3 so hopeing it will come to america on ps3

  • this game is coming in the mail monday i cant wait

  • Amazing epic! Namco forever!

  • Rejoice all those from UK! Tales of Vesperia, we can now buy it!!

  • is it possible to have japanese audio and english subs?

  • most probably

  • my fav is the original tales of symphonia for gamecube and i have the new one for wii

  • i am stuck between ps2 and xbox 360, i was planning buy one of those game consle, ps2 have a TON good rpg games incudle tales of the abyss, however xbox 360 have best graphic and good rpg games, i also want tales of vespeira, so plz help me make decision buying ps2 or xbox 360 XD. Note: i have wii, so i kindly sorta want have other game consle, so...what's ur suggest?

  • I have a ps2 and a xbox 360. i would suggest getting a 360 becasue i dont even use my ps2 anymore and theyre are alot of good rpg's on 360. Plus Final Fantasy XIII is coming out on 360. I hope this helped.

  • I say Tales of the Abyss is the best of all tales games I played. Tales of symphonia, tales of the world, tales of eternia. Has the best story!! I haven't played tales of vesperia yet. I it sold out everytime:(

  • i've got a wii and a 360 but don't play the wii any more...my smashbrosbrawl didn't want to work so it sits there..

    def get a 360 over a ps3 anyday..my friend returned his ps3 to get a 360...live is way better even if u have to pay a ...small fee realllyyyyy

    also all the good games on the ps2 are sequeling on the 360...u know the right move!

  • well, actualy I'm a 360 fanboy... but in your case... get a ps3, there you can play almost all games which are also releasing for the 360 and ps2 games if you have the luck to get on of the "old" pieces.

  • if u buy a xbox....

    buy a new one...

    RROD will kill ya.

  • Yuri ftw the game if fun buy it every1

    :D

  • After you complete tales of vesperia can u come back and do all the title side quests? please reply

  • namco makes the greatest games ever

    My personal favorite is the xenosaga series

    but after i play this game it'll probably be my favorite

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • To add on what KillerChaos93 said. It's coming out for the ps3 sometime on the future.

  • in**

  • shame it came out in usa jp in auguest 08 1 month apart and europe has to w8 basically a year

  • It is quite possible the PS3 version will only be realeased in Japan and never reach North American shores

  • I really just want to know what game system this is for...

  • ITS FOR XBOX 360 (just bought it)

  • 360 and PS3

  • Woooooo!

  • Its due out in the UK soon, but they keep changing the damn release date.

    First its June 6th, then its 26th June!!

    I want to import it so badly, but sadly it wouldnt work on a PAL console. Ive checked everywhere and still nothing, *cries*

  • I want the game. Is it on wii????

    I hope they make it on wii cause I only have that.

  • xbox 360 exclusive as far as i know

  • It's coming out on the ps3 soon.

  • They dont, Ps3 and XBox 360 only...

  • they're making a special Tales game for the wii very soon called 'Tales of Graces', out around christmas time or earlier =]

  • Ah! Oh, okay :D

  • There is already a "Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World " for the Wii. You should check that out seeing as how Namco makes all of the "Tales of" games.

  • duss eny one no when its out in the uk

  • 26th June

  • thats a pretty good trailer..

  • unfortunately i have to agre with ninja omega 89, the present means x 360

  • I don't know. I think the ps3 is starting to catch while the 360 is slowing down a bit. It's hard to tell though. I really haven't seen any major titles that truly grab my interest lately for either system.

  • What's the big deal? Just play your systems and don't worry what anybody else plays

  • But you can't. This is the INTERNET. Everyone cares about what everyone does and you're wrong if you don't think like me.

  • Lol o really? I think every system has it's ups and downs, and I think every system has some amazing games.

  • The obviously you are misguided and not biased enough. :b

  • lol nah, I'm just very openminded and enjoy a good game no matter what system it is on.

  • The Ps3 version is gonna sell like shit just like killzone 2 and eternal sonata port,Lol at the PS3 fanboys waiting for the game..Ive already beat this shit multiple times...

  • Killzone 2 has already sold over a million copies worldwide + RPGs in general sale better on the PS3 and just about always tank on the 360. This is common knowledge.

    You're a dumbass, btw.

  • Eternal sonata sold less than the 360 in japan with the 360, Mass effect,Fallout 3 and fable 2,lost odyssey has sold over a million,Fable 2 an RPG was the top game back on oct 08'. This is Common knowledge and actual fact.

    You're dumbass, btw for not knowing this:)

  • Mass Effect, Fallout 3 and Fable 2 are all shitty western RPGs. Secoond-rate plots and plenty of pointless sidequests.

    I was referring to jRPGs, which all have weak sales numbers on 360. Lost Odyssey never reached a million units sold worldwide.

    Face it, the Xbox 360 is a shooters console and the good RPGs never do as well at they deserve to. That's reality.

  • You should know alot about second rate RPG's with the name like Noctis(FFVSXIII),Blue dragon and lost odyssey sold a million FACT. Even if they sell like garbage why do developers like square-Enix keep putting jrpgs on the 360...Because they sell well Another Fact..Now fuck off and go and play Your jrpg's on the PS3..Oh wait there are none lol..You guys just have a Sloppy second of a 360 game(eternal sonata)Another lol!!!!...

  • You ask why developers put jRPGs onto the 360 first? It's because Microsoft bribes them with large sums of money. Why else would they put their games on a console that totally FAILED in Japan?

    Is that too much to comprehend for you?

    And thanks for beta testing those RPGs on the 360; the PS3 gets the full, optimized versions of RPGs like Tales of Vesperia, The Last Remnant, SO4, etc not the shitty versions with framerate issues and flaws like the initial 360 ones.

    Thanks again buddy.

  • I don't care if MS bribes them,

    Yeah you keep playing the waiting game,Ps3 owners are used to that,Hey when is TOV Coming to the PS3 again mostly likely 2010,What about star ocean or TLR? mostly likely 2010...

    The point is just wait..I live in the present and in the present the 360 has MORE JRPG's than the PS3..Plain and simple.Face it

    And go back to ur original Screen name coward:)

  • wow ur 1 hell of a fukin xbot fanboy, btw tov coming to teh ps3 in fall of 2009. just so u know.

    and i dont mind waiting, i get a better deal for my jrpgs unlike 360 that get half made games. but hey since that brought a half made system that fails radomly i guess that they dont mind.

  • gets half made games? how does the 360 fail? sounds like ur a sony fan boy

    i think both systems are good but i like the 360 WAY more

  • well if u had a brain at all u know 360 get teh red ring of death and it the system that failed the most u retarded xbot, and yea i guess im a little of a sony fanboy. and idc if u like 360 more so go fuk it 4 all i care.

  • i do know about red ring i got one...then i got a new one. if you "had a brain" you would know that problem got fixed and it doesnt fail since it sells better than the PS3 and it gets top notch games. so dont go around calling people stupid when you cant even spell right

  • i have a perfectly working 360 that wont break on me. you didnt read the part where the problem doesnt happen anymore. also calling me retard when you cant even spell or use proper sentence structure is funny. i mean your so jealous of the 360 you havent got a clue about the system. this argument is over since your not intelligent enough and dont even know what a 360 is. good game boy

  • lol first of all sure ur 360 not going to break again just like my friend whos on his 7th 360. and second retarded is a word dumbass. retard is a noun and retarded is a adjective.(if ur to stupid to know wat those words means PLZ look it up) and second y would i want a 360? those white boy games like halo and gears i played both of them...1 word overrated and i could buy a 360 but for wat the only game i wanted was tov but 360 lost it so idc. 360 not even powerful enough to play MGS4. so sad

  • Just like the one who started this junk, the other side doesn't care about problems, if we should read everything of MS to keep up to date, why don't you? you don't care so we dont care and it is kinda true that the Xbox gets half games, but theire still kinda good games. but hey, MS and Sony are rivals, not lovers.... get it? so stop this nonsense before the real nonsense starts...

  • btw with real nonsense im talking about the people who use the Wii...

    |

    xD

  • lol oh wow

  • Video games. Serious business.

  • Tbh i prefer the PS3 but the xbox is still a reasonable console it's not a better piece of tech but it dominates the market place and gets a lot more games, they are more unreliable and you have to pay for xbox live , its strength is in its community and microsoft get the most out of their product so stop being an illiterate moron and keep your opinions to yourself becuase they come across as nonsensical diarrhea.

  • WOW! Your vast knowledge of the english language astounds me. What a fantastic, well thought out comeback, you really put me in my place. Oh btw that was pretty racist you biggot, so I suppose you also don't care that you come across as a total bell end, you wanker.

  • Yes becuase I'm the looser becuase I have a brain, mate I ain't the one who's gunna be flippin' burgers my whole life. Your clearly a social lepper and none too bright either. Now ask yourself who's the looser you half wit.

  • fliping bungers that u kid. u radomly start fight on the internet. u supid queer and can u shut up(im sure u know how) this is rlly childish so im done talking to u.(but reply if u want i know ppl like u have time.)

  • I will reply and I thought you needed teaching a lesson, from your comments you sound way to big for your boots remember your place little boy. And people like me? Care to eleborate? You don't know me, what a stupid statement.

  • wow kid u have a lot of free time dont u dont u got anything better to do? nvm u would just bug me even more. im done with this it u reply u have no life so let end this it point less fighting with an idiot.

  • Your a proper jerk off jeesh your 15 and you call me kid and I'm 20? You have no manners and everyone can see with their own eyes what a fool you really are, you make me lmao.

  • Man trolls really suck, If I met you in real life i'd demo you. laptop gangsters like you really rattle me.

  • if you are going to call some one else an idiot please dont sound like one when you do

  • you spelled loser wrong idiot

  • I'm dyslexic, cheers.

  • Comment removed

  • By the way it's spelt not spelled ;)

  • Learn.

    It's 'spelled' not 'spelt'.

    When you correct someone, try to correct them correctly...

  • Now thats just overly pedantic, by the way sorry for being a troll but that little shit really pissed me off.

  • Not In the UK, and we created the English language btw.

  • god, so what if its going on the ps3...

    this "game war" with the 360 and ps3 is really retarted and childish. i have both and i really don't have anything to comment about it. i find it very hard to understand WHY IT IS a big deal just becuase something is going on another console, theres a big fight about it on the internet.. what ever happen to having just a good time with a console you like and just have fun? i'm not blaming anything on the ps3 or the 360, im blaming the retarted critics...

  • wait whos that blonde charrie voiced by? It kinda sounds like Vic Mignogna tho i could be wrong ^^;

  • when the Pal?!?!? plz answer to me

  • june 30th according to amazon.

  • this has just been announced for the PS3! XD

    WIN.

  • waiting for it styill for PAL -.-

  • I can't wait untill I save up enough for a 360. I'm buying it just so I can play this game~

  • u should wait 4 the ps3 version it has more stuff. Like the new pirate character named Patty and more.

  • How about all you PS3 fanboys shut up. Way to go for 360 because it's the original version, and I'm really sure that they are gonna screw up the story with that new character and there are no more new features. I'm not an Xbox 360 fanboy, but I suggest you guys to get the 360 version since we already know that it kicks ass. One more thing, maybe a patch will come ou with that new character.

  • lol u R a 360 fanboy u idiot i just want that guy to know that there a ps3 version with more stuff just in case he want it, and u bitching like a retard. and plus the storyline will stay teh same but have new side missions that relate to teh movie coming out. and plus there more new stuff like full voice acting and u get to play as flyhn more. so look it up b4 u say shit u dont know about.

  • Who the hell told ya that you can play as Flynn more?? THAT will screw up the storyline! But sure that the movie will NOT have that bonus character. Voice acting...that's the biggest bullshit I ever heard, the voice acting is already perfect so why improving it?

  • lol fanboy well first of all they let to play as flynn more b/c yuri and flynn can do these double mystiac atres move together. and screw up storyline? teh storyline with will stay teh same but with sightly different wording. and of cousre teh movie dont have the bounus chartacter b/c teh movie is about when yuri and flynn were both knights and and voice acting will be teh same but with 1 new person in it. if u dont believe me look it up.

  • I have no faith in them bringing any Tales ports over here.

    We have yet to get more than one version of any Tales Game, even though almost all of them have been improved and ported to another system.

  • how come 360 and ps3 have a heLL LoTTa RPG's and wii doesnT.?? wouLd anyone recommend rpg games for wii.?

  • Zelda is the nearest tho it's not really an rpg.

  • Wii has Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the new world.

    Also, the next Tales game that is going to come out (name still pending) is going to be for the Wii.

  • why on earth did u get a wii its the least hardcore of the 3 so it appeals to casual more. Anyways it already has tales of symphonia and getting tales of grace which is a new mothership title for the series looking pretty good =)

  • is this game really worth it? cause it looks good to me but...i dunno

  • It is. Go buy it now- it's easily one of the best RPGs for Xbox 360, if not THE best.

  • The best Tales in my opinion.

    inb4Symphoniafanboys

  • Best tales game thus far. The Japanese release of the game even made the xbox 360 sell out in Japan.

  • You forgot to mention that it was the first sell out of the 360 in Japan ever...

  • This trailer makes ToV look even more awesome. Defiantly my favorite Tales game so far. :)

  • i'm glad this game is coming to the Wii system.

  • sorry to say this but its only coming out for the 360 and then the ps3 - the wii can't give the game graphics as the 360. just check out tales of symphonia 2 which is newer than vesperia

  • Too bad. I wanted it to come out for PS2.

  • Umm...this game has been out since August...

  • I know that, smart ass.

  • i don;t think there are anymore ps2 games being made (or a lot) only for 360 and ps3. (thankfully i got a 360 for christmas and im gonna buy this game as soon as my parents let me.) fable 2 is a great game

  • It might come to the ps3 but they aren't sure.

  • Namco isn't dumb enough to port a good game to a dying system.

  • its not for ps3

  • How much space does this take up on the 360?...

  • Do you play as yuri or someone else?

  • all

  • Glowing0wings its coming out in Spring 2009

  • Ugh, I want this so badly. *slaps 360 onto her Christmas list*

    Also...main character - hot.

  • Does anyone know when this game is released in the UK?

  • shiiit!!! this game is awesome!! cant wait to taste the awesomeness..

  • sucks its on xbox though

  • Tales of vesperia is a veeeeeeeeryyy good game

  • I wonder if Namco Bandai games will make a game like NamcoXCapcom. They might as well since they've joined forces. Only thing is that Bandai almost literally only made games based on anime.

  • i find the the tales seems to have blown away the FF series only thing is their are too many FF fan boys out there

  • I'm not a fan of the Tales series, I was wondering if they're all sequels or are they like the FF series and all different?

  • Tales is like FF series, but it might be the same in some aspects. :)

  • I meant is it the same in a sense that all of the games have nothing to do with each other.

  • some of them are connected in vague yet important ways, and btw, are all the tales games situated in the same world??

  • TALES OF SYMPHONIA IS WAY BETTER

  • Uh...no.

  • i know tos is definetly the best ngc game out there, if not the best nintendo in general, too bad tos2 is only in japan... :( but this game looks great too (it'll take some getting used to tho not to have genis, lloyd, raine, etc.)

  • ToS is coming to the US and UK! Before Christmans, in november I think.

  • TOS2 has a whopping... like... 15-25 hours of gameplay I hear. So even as a Wii owner, Vesperia is what tipped me over the edge enough to decide to buy a 360. Other games too, but it's the one that really made my decision. That and I can actually play games and do stuff with my friends online without jumping through hoops. It's a bigger deal once you realize you and your friends are going to different college.

  • ToS is out in canada. ^^
