They're all pretty unimpressive except for Tales of Vesperia. One should skip the rest (possibly consider Lost Odyssey if they don't care about gameplay or like theirs outdated), and also consider Blue Dragon.

I really don't understand why Lost Odyssey continually gets picked on as being 'outdated' - it's like someone at IGN first said it then this stigma suddenly got attached to its' name, but every other turn-based gameplay RPG flies under the radar without being repeatedly harped on about as having 'old gameplay mechanics'.  I personally hope we never see the death of 'turn-based' RPGs.  If you like strategy or pokemon or puzzle quest etc. it's a great game.
