Tales of Vesperia is a strong anime-style Japanese RPG with a wide-ranging story, compelling characters and an intense real-time battle system that keeps you on your toes. Although it has a somewhat inconsistent visual style and is relatively low on graphical details, the character designs and animations are very good, and there's a ton to explore in the world. The storyline isn't breaking any new ground and begins to unravel somewhat at the end, but there's power here, and the characters will definitely stay with you after the battle ends.
