PSPHyper:"Chester Burklight (Tales of Phantasia), Harold Berselius (Tales of Destiny 2), Presea Combatir (Tales of Symphonia) and Eugene Gallardo (Tales of Rebirth) are the new characters revealed for Tales of VS. in the upcoming issue of Weekly Famitsu (click for full view, only found a low res picture for now). Kyle, Lloyd, Colette, Senel, Tear and Rita are also shown. If my full list here is correct, then we still have seven more characters waiting to be unveiled before the August 6th release in Japan."
Twinfinite Writes: The 'Tales of' series has seen increasing popularity in the west in recent years, however, there's still a number of titles we're still hoping to get.
As much as i'd like to see them come west, I quite frankly would rather they focus on the new ones they make. I think that some of these i would find the fighting system archaic.
Easily my favorite "Tales of" Game I like the last 2 that came to the US but I miss the battle systems from earlier games new they were way more involved combat system compared to what we have now.
"Sadly for hardcore fans not in Japan, fighting game spinoff Tales of VS is one such game that never made the trip overseas. The four-player fighter lets players select from dozens of Tales characters from most of the franchise’s history, from Tales of Phantasia up through Tales of Hearts, then slug it out." -Heath Hindman for PlayStation LifeStyle
it's not that bad , i played it for 15 hours to unlock extra for my tales of vesperia PS3 save and i enjoyed it ..it's not perfect but it's enough fun when you put CLESS , LYODD , YURI , STAN in the same area brawling ..
it has flaws , it requires lot of time to invest in the system but it's not that bad .
Tales games worth importing are destiny 2, symphonia ps2, tales of the world 2,3. Nariki dungeon 1,2,3. Tales ds 1,2,3
ect
you know rpgs
Curious: were there some refinements or changes in the PS2 version of Symphonia or is it pretty much the same as the Cube version?
If I'm not mistaken everyone can do Mystic Arte and more unison combo attacks. Its nothing major like the difference with the 2 ToV versions
Its even more major
"The PlayStation 2 version contains additional features, such as two extra anime cut scenes, several additional optional story scenes and side quests, new monsters, more Techs and Unison Attacks, and additional costumes."
list of changes
-Everyone can do mystical artes..
-Everyone has at least one more advanced attack ( presea has 3, regal 2, collette 1, ect ect )
-more unison combos
-some "light" dialogues changes
-The colette hidden selector bug has disapeared ( the attack still works , but it's harder to do )
-more titles
-more costumes
-some ajustments for New game plus
-the "kratos in your party while on zelos path" bug has been fixed
that's all
EDIT: forgot about the anime cutscenes ..
it's not as major as vesperia ( that had to redo several parts of the plots in japanese ) but it's still a improved version
Oh! thanks for the follow up guys. I didn't knew that.
Now I want the ToS (PS2) version too. X_x
Oh yeah that reminds me that I need to get the Narikiri Dungeon X remake for the PSP.
Yeah sounds like this game is one that we'll be OK without.
Ni no Kuni, on the other hand....
>:(
"Today, I will be taking a look some awesome games that our eastern counterparts have or will be getting, that either will not be coming over, or just not announced, here in the US yet. These games are in no particular order."
What's going on with these Tales series. Is it any good for a JRPG? Seems like there's always a new one every year. The only Tales game I've played was Tales of Phantasia on the Plastation.
Tales games are great, big dedicated fanbase in Japan.
I played abyss, symphonia 1&2, destiny and Vesperia. Vesperia is my personal favorite and one of my best JRPGs of all time, great combat leveling collecting music story characters and presentation, Symphonia 1 is also a favorite of many fans.
The same team that made Vesperia is making Xillea, and from what I have seen is shaping up great.
This year we are getting graces, I hope it's great.
Some are better than others but Vesperia was one of the greatest games ive played, def best tales game. It is localised just on 360 though. We need the last story and xenoblade.
Tales of xilia isn't even out ..seriously .. or were you guys struggling to make a top 5 ?
And of all games missing the bleach serie ? With it being a fighting game and it's public already up to date when it comes to the story ?
