| c0rd said: IGN gave ToV an 8.2. So they like Eternal Sonata better than Tales of Vesperia? What I've heard from most people is ToV is much better, but it's all opinion I guess... I think reviews on JRPG's are even more worthless than usual. I'm getting ES either way, once I can find it cheap. I haven't played a new home console JRPG in far too long. |
Keep in mind that ES 360 was released in August 2007 and the bar for JRPG's on the 360 was lower then what it was when ToV was released. I'm sure if the 360 version (as it is now) was released in August 2008 it wouldn't have scored as high.
As for the PS3 version, I'm pretty surprised at the 8.7, I was expecting between 8.0 - 8.3. Maybe Ryan Clements of IGN was all giddy about the PS3 getting another JRPG that he bumped it up a few points.
