  • Honestly, this is the first song thats also sung in Japanese that sounds better in English

  • @Regundal yep

  • I have this song on my iPod, and I listen to it all the time!!! I just love this song!

  • Finally managed to pick up a 360. This was the first game I bought. Can safely say it is one of the best Tales games ever, if not one of the best JRPGs ever. Just awesome

  • Tales of Vesperia along with all other Tales games= Win. Nuff' Said. :) Good bye Call of duty:D

  • wow brings back memories, this game so sick. When that spear chick was introduced later in the game i started using her, she fuckin owned. so fun to use her as well.

  • @RhythmChaserr Its Judith >.>

  • @Krackdown96 LOL thanks, i havent played the game in years i couldn't remember :)

  • ok i need an xbox now

  • Is Yuri left handed?

  • @Tamoto08 U could say that 'cause he's ambidextrous

  • @Tamoto08 yes

  • I still want to know how to get those fucking costumes in game

  • @silverseaturtle you can buy them on live. or replay the game in unknown mode and do the events. oh and craft parts in synthesis

  • Yuri and Yeager <3

  • Who else thinks Yuri is amazingly badass at 2:15

  • I very rarely replay any game, but I'm already 30 hours into my ex-game in Vesperia and still loving every minute of it. Raven is definitely my favourite, but I love Yuri's darker side, doing what the law can't.

  • Comment removed

  • I adore this game! It's just so freaking epic :)

  • I can die right now... I saw all my life in 3.13 minutes

  • Yuri is so badass... I love so much the characters of this game! And I mean all of them... seriously! Even Estelle has a character development!

    This game is epic! And Yuri is my favourite heroe of all time! I love the way he acts, the way he talks... All of him please me and it's great for a rpg heroe!

  • Raven was my favorite character. Reminded me of Spike from Cowboy Bebop. ...but Yuri was sooooo badass too....damn...I hate choices.

  • @devilholdscards Really, Raven reminds you of Spike? I would say Yuri is much more like Spike than Raven is. They both have that laid back attitude where everything rolls off them, asides being very badass. Plus Spike had none of Raven's pervertedness xD

  • 9/10, such a fun and awesome game with a fun battle system and great characters. The only downsides are that the plot is pretty cliched and there's very little character development. This still is a must buy game if you like jrpgs.

  • @jayhow92 Little Character Development? Have u seen Karol from start to end? And Rita, and not to mention Estelle! The Character Development is huuuuuge

  • i think my favorite characters of the game are yuri, judith, rita and raven. raven kinda reminds me of myself except im 14 ;P like at the one skit in the game where judith says she could show a little more. and raven says "YES OH GOD YES!" that reminds me of myself haha

  • Fk estelle, Judith for the win!

  • @OtakuGinger That's Nan, karol's supposed "girlfriend" And she's a bitch lol

  • Man Yuri was definitely probably my favorite JRPG character ever. The dude just oozed cool sauce, and really made the entire game for me. When Yuri burried that guy in the desert I cheered for the realness. Yuri kept it realistic and not a dreamy fantasy of the world. He saw bad he stepped in handled his shit and dipped. And for gods sake he had Judith, Judith!!!

  • Sounds EXACTLY like in Japanese, just, it's in English.This is how translations should be. AWESOME.

  • @CarmenMCS I've never thought of that before, but when I saw your comment, I checked it out for myself and you're absolutely right!

  • I've always played RPG's, stuff like Pokemon or Fire Emblem but I was never big into the genre, then one day at my local library I rented this game because of the anime style cover, I had no expectations and it's the reason why RPGs, more so JRPGs are my favorite genre. And every time I hear this opening I always remember that one week I had it and couldn't put it down. Sound overly sentimental? Well screw off because this is still one of my favorite games of all time!

  • Just picked this up and it is a great game. I'm surprised I didn't get this sooner

  • I love this game, but whenever i get back into it after a couple of weeks, i forget the entire story.

  • @TheSilverWolfX9 Thats probably because all I can seem to remeber is that the Blastia is breaking so we had save the Blastia until we find out Blastia is bad so we have to stop the giant Blastia but then we find out Blastia is the spirits of these creatures...and uh Blastia....DAMN BLASTIA!

  • Man, some strong top comments on this vid... I feel the same way.. Tales of Vesperia is a hit!

  • i like this game it looks interesting and i think ifell in love with the song :3

    BUT I AM SAD I CANT PLAY THIS GAME TT.TT

  • Man these games bring back so many memories now i think i have to get the games again

  • if i was in tales of veperia: mage

  • ahhhhhhh song is so peacful ;)

  • 2:13 yuri does a completely useless but completely badass sword flip.

  • This song is awesome. And so is your gamertag

  • 2:12

    Damn, Yeager. Damn.

    You're beautiful.

    Followed by Yuri?

    Damn.

  • @itsalexenglish Spin to win, yo. Thanks for the quick-skip. :3

  • Comment removed

  • I'm loving this game. 28 hours of gameplay so far and it looks like I still have plenty to go. Characters are awesome and the story is huge. Fuck real life, I wish I was in this game.

  • @gamingsoul11 a men brouther

  • @gamingsoul11 I completed it in 70 hours taking my time, not many games do that these days. Fucking epic ending as well :)

  • @chrisreid1 yeah even though i love symohonia and abyss this game is just magical. its in my top 10 games off all time

  • I feel like they did a decent job with the english opening on this one... I'm normally really picky when they try and make an english song for it, but... i liked it

  • Yuri flips sword FTW! :)

  • The cut scenes in this game are so epic.

  • as much as i love tales of vesperia i must say the story in tales of symphonia was better, if tos had tov menu, free run, and all of that it honestly would be the best game ever <3 die hard tales fan ;D

  • One thing I loved about this is Flynn who is the typical hero was a secondary character.

  • i think this is the only tales game that actually had a song instead of just music playing, this song is just so epic aswell!! :D

  • Never skipped this when i play Tales... not once !

  • the game looks beautiful and beautiful song of the opening.

  • We really need a new tales of game

  • @Dark1Cliff There will be, Tales of Graces is coming out next year in the NTSC and PAL regions exclusively on the PS3. It's already out in Japan and the PS3 is not region locked, so if you know some Japanese, it would't be a bad idea to import a copy if you want to play it now. If you are monolingual, like me, it would be best to wait until the english version comes out.

  • Long Haired Dude - Yuri Lowell.

    Dog - Repede.

    Goggle Girl - Rita

    Booby Lady - Judith

    Kid - Karol

    Purple Jacket(oldman) - Raven

  • Tales games always have KICK ASS openings *W*

  • Love this song, love this game, freaken long, freaken awesome!

  • @TheKigkid Hello i'm just wondering this game is long? like how much time can i play?

  • @andres18ism Anywhere from 40 to 60 hours of playtime pretty much. ;)

  • @214CIceCar thanks for the information. :)

  • this is probably the only decent rpg in 360.... atleast in my honest opinion

  • @Ginobi666 lost odyssey is awesome too in my opinion better than tales of vesperia but just a little better^^

  • Yuri is such a fresh change from most JRPG protaganists. He has an awareness of the world and whats happening and is quite comfortable with the person he is. I really enjoyed playing an older hero in this game. Sure there isn't as much character development in Yuri as apposed to a younger hero but I really do tire of bitchy whiny lead characters in JRPG's. Yuri is badass.

  • @Darthabeymo I agree, I really like Yuri's character, he's so decisive too.

  • @Darthabeymo I agree 500000000000000% :D

  • @Darthabeymo Yuri's character is badass. There is some really decisive character development here though. Its subtle but its there, Yuri allows himself to be taken in by people and develops his own brand of Justice. the subtly and serious way he take his role in where he is is why he stands out to me. Aside from the fact that (as you said) he is nearly the opposite of your generic JRPG protagonist.

  • @Darthabeymo Agreed. Being a older gamer it was really refreshing. I bought a collection of games from a local ad and this was one of the 20. Safe to say that I found a diamond. Just wish there were Romantic sub plots. Only for the fact that Yuri has obvious connections to some party members. This is one of the few games that I just wanted MORE.. even after the 100+ hours. But thats the signs of a great story I guess.

  • @Darthabeymo your right some JRPG protagonists are whiny and complain a lot in the game.... Yuri just goes with what happens and does what he can when he can........and yeah he is badass....specially in the movie.

  • @Darthabeymo Damn skippy. And he doesn't make pains about who he is- a guy who is more than capable of murder, a requisite skill people seem to forget when making rpgs and adventure games. I mean, how often do you get through the better part of an rpg, having slaughtered your way through god knows how many enemy troops and monsters, only to have the main character have a hang-up about killing someone who really has it coming? Yuri's a badass and a man- he knows how to get shit done.

  • @Darthabeymo Yeah, but to be honest, I think Yuri is the only Tales character that has the most minor role in each of the characters goals. He just wanted to search for an aque blastia, and he gets caught up in Estelle's quest, and from there it's just "Meh. I deal with it."

  • @Darthabeymo Emil... = .=

  • @Darthabeymo i second this statement.=)

  • Awesome intro and game. Good thing PSN went down or I would have never added an Xbox 360 to my console collection. Now it's a decision I'm glade I made.

  • @terran236 I think this game is for ps3 also

  • @issa123123 only in japan

  • Brings back memories...

  • @rxpinoy4562 i think its just you :P, jk xD

  • All right, I have a question and I've allready looked practically everwhere to find the answer but can't seem to do so. What is the name of the white haired guy that fights with Raven from 1:54 to 2:00 ?

  • @BloodRedScythe16

    It's Tyson from the Hunting Blades

  • @BloodRedScythe16 crap i knew it hes in the game i remember its just been a few years since i played this game. he should have sprung up towards the end

  • @infernoofflames

    Oh it's perfectly fine, someone allready answered and told me it was Tyson. Thanks all the same.

  • Comment removed

  • fight at 1:54 reminds me of fullmetal alchemist

  • man i had this game beat it and then let a friend borrow it now i don't have it anymore T_T

  • This is awesome I luv this game.

  • I go crazy with the imagination of the people that make these games

  • gonna play this when I get a 360 slim :D

  • @rxpinoy4562 he does a bit

  • are the girls at 1:43 supposed to be sisters? they kinda give that vibe

  • @Lukefonfabre9 yea they are twins

  • @rxpinoy4562 haven't played this game, but I played TottA, which one's Flynn?

  • @Lukefonfabre9 flynn is the blonde training with yuri at 1:33 btw if u dont played this master piece do it xD is a great game

  • @ColdTristan I haven't played it, but I wish I could, my money goes to other priorities:)

  • @rxpinoy4562 Same thing i thought.

  • LOL!

  • @rxpinoy4562 if you see the newest trailer for Tales of the World Radiant Mythology theres a part where they're running togethor and they look like brothers.

  • Lol fail 1:46

  • how old yuri is??

  • @TheHeksu96 hes 21 :D

  • This song is SO good; if my girlfriend cheats on me one day and I heard this song, I'd forget what happened.

  • is it the same girl who sings the japanese version and english version?

  • @darkkeybladers yes. She lived in New York for some time so she has perfect English

  • estelle loves people and flowers lol

  • @rxpinoy4562 yea he dose i thought that 2

  • @rxpinoy4562

    All Tales basically have the same characters and the same plot.

    You are a young male who goes on a quest to learn something. The characters have a magical substance that is losing power and need to replace it. And the main female character is called to be a sacrifice for something.

    There are different changes in each game, but basically they all have the same characters and plot.

  • @pikkdogs in short they're all saving the world story

  • @pikkdogs Too bad the Tales series seems to be taking the place of Final Fantasy as Top Dog of the RPG genre in story and gameplay, especially after the complete dreck that FFXIII brought us.

  • @SomaCruz500 What do you mean "Too bad"? Tales of is awesome! Final Fantasy is... Well, it's not BAD...

  • @pikkdogs noo no no, lets just say they're all about saving the world, you haven't played enough tales

  • @pikkdogs Haters gonna hate, this was the second time I've played a Tales game and I was still blown away.

  • @Chaoseph

    Didn't say I hated it, I loved the game. Its just the same game I've played before over and over again. I like it, but before I opened the game, I played it before.

  • you got me wanting to re-play this game again. What a great game it was.

  • ahhh i want to play this game now!

    doesnt anybody want this to be a real anime though?

    with the purple haired girl with the sword and blonde haired guy with the sword as main characters?! i can see it now! :D

  • @11aenem37 They did that already xD Though it was only a movie called "Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike" and it takes place before the game so it's really more about Yuri and Flynn in their days of knighthood.

    They show Raven like 3 times, Repede is there a lot more but as a puppy, Rita is there like once, Estelle is shown about twice, and Judith doesn't appear.

    There's also a manga of it, but I'm not sure where you could find that.

  • @Swordsmanofthedark oh really? thank you for telling me!

    im going to go watch it now:D manga too. hmm i'll look for it.

    have you played the game??

  • @11aenem37 Yeah I've played it. Had to buy it pre-owned online because I didn't find out about this game till a while back this year.

  • @Swordsmanofthedark yeahh usually i dont realize games this good are out until i actually go to websites that have them or people tell me bout them(:

    Did yu beat it can yu?

  • @11aenem37 Yeah. It's tons of fun.

    Even my friend, who thought it was lame and only plays stuff like Halo, said that he likes how it looks and he's considering playing it.

  • @Swordsmanofthedark niceee!

  • Do you ever get the sword Yuri has in this? im not that far in

  • @Slowgt13 Yeah, I believe its called "Second Star"

  • Omfg I love this. :)

  • This game looks amazingly fun. c:

  • its not a error, the bow has 2 blades we can say one in the up and on the down part... xD that why when the other guy is close of him, he is attacking like it is a sword...if u watrch this video slowly u can see it

  • @garceis ... Doesn't he draw his dagger for that?

  • i love this song

  • Yup. He's a carbon copy.

  • Nice game; must have on 360.

  • bonnie pink huh? she's still young? i know she sang a song on rurouni kenshin the 6th ending. and now TOV. she's must be famous. better check on wiki

  • she's only 36 years old suprisingly, she must of been quite young when she sung the rurouni kenshin song

  • exellent song heheh...

  • i agree he does look like guy from TOA

  • i prefer a musical opening, but this is still pretty good.

  • at 0:34 is it just me or does yuri have a wierd smile (or is it that he has big eyes

    O_O)

  • i haven't even played this tales game yet and i love the intro i have watched it like 4 times just cause the song is awesome

  • Note the continuity error at 2:02.

    The metal grip of Raven's bow disappears.

    It's...MAGIC! =O

  • acually his bow turns into a sword periodicly during the game

  • the actual song is like 4 minutes long.. it's not really an error, they juts spliced the verses and chorus together

  • I'm referring to the animation, not actual song. Pay attention to Raven's bow and you will see what I'm referring to.

  • After watching the part a few times, it looks as if the bow spins in his hand as or after he fires. Watch it a few times. I don't think it's an error.

  • I watch it every time I play the game (love the song and animation) and I must disagree. Look at the position of his hand. It isn't drawn in any way indicating a different angle. Furthermore, the bow is also draw in its same position, just in a relaxed state after the arrow was released. It is simply a matter of the grip being in one frame, then disappearing in the next.

  • I still gotta disagree with you man, to me it looks as if the bow rotates in his hands. Try to pause the video at 2:03 where the arrow has been released. The bow has been rotated. You can see the arc of the bow facing a different direction (back towards or around Raven) by the time the camera goes off to Tison.

  • That only lends more credence to my claim. Notice the bow is both light and dark brown. The metal grip is aligned with the dark. When released, the darker is prominent and the grip disappears. Had the bow rotated as you say (w/o any visible manipulation on Raven's part mind you) the grip's top would have faced the screen. The only other alternative is the grip cutting thru his wrist or the back of his hand to become invisible. I dunno. I say we just agree to disagree on this one. =)

  • @earlyriser03 acutally raves bow is a transformation bow sometimes a sword/dagger or a bow

  • @hakim148 of course. however that does not mean that the handle does not disappear in the cutscene. it is simply an animation quirk, an omission of one detail. not a big deal really.

  • awsome intro on of the best

  • I like tales of the abyss main theme song better than this one but this one is still one of the better songs.

  • this game was awesome sauce i beat it and then my beaten game got overwritten it was sad D8

  • Try Jyongri Lullaby for you at the end of The World Ends With You she also can sing in Japanese and English (and yes it souns great).

  • WOW!!! Compared by the other tales game,Tales of Vesperia have a singer!!

  • Uh every Tales game had a singer, just in Japanese. I suppose it's a good thing Bonnie Pink can sing just as well in English as she can in Japanese (a rare trait).

  • I know,Im just saying that Tales of Vesperia Is the first Tales game that have a singer who speaks english!!

  • yeah only the jap versions had voices, the others were just music

  • loved the game while i had it but my xbox was having a really hard time playing it and it was scratching the hell out of it.... so i sold it before it wrecked the game entirely :( i want it back now....

  • 1- I love this game

    and 2- Yuri is one fine man:)

  • yes yes he is

  • this is so cool! Just bought this song in itunes... I also watch the opening every time I play ^^

  • Do you think in the PS3 version will be some extras like in the PS2 version of "symphonia" or the US version of "the Abyss"?

  • awesome name symphonias the best and so is vesperia

  • it has alot of extra stuff

  • Yeah I've seen some videos by now.

    Looks so awesome,

    I hope it's not japanese release only.

  • there's a PS3 port, right?

  • it's not out in Japan yet but yes

  • then goodbye tales of the abyss. :D

  • too bad they havent made many copies of this game, it's not that easy to find.

  • I've clocked more then 200 hours in this game and I watch this intro everytime I play I love it

    Hope this means more Tales of ... Games for the 360 in future

  • awesome music

  • lol This song is very addicting. <3 Both Japanese and English version rock although I prefer the Japanese more. XD

  • Just beat this and I loved every moment of it. The only other Tales game I've played is Symphonia, and I really dont know which I think is better. They're both great! I think maybe Vesperia had better characters and much better main character in Yuri, but the plot was a little too unfocused until the final third or so. Still great though, anyone who's a fan of rpgs should go for it!

  • i'm clueless with this series, so nobody get mad @ me; but Is this game related 2 "Tales of Symphonia" O_o

  • well its in the same tales of series but they arent related, i think the only ones that are, are top (phantasia) tos (symphonia) and tos2 (symphonia 2) those ones are related and same with the destiny ones

  • Namco has made many games in a Tales of... series, but they aren't really related. Gameplay is similar though.

  • it's related in the sense that it has a similar theme/gameplay to the other "tales o
