What is the best Tales of entry?

[domflo]

I've only played Eternia, Abyss, Graces and Xillia, but out of them, Tales of the Abyss was the only one I actually got drawn into, and it's the only one that's even remotely close to being played through. Probably has something to do with it being on 3DS.

I also own Symphonia: DotNW, but I haven't actually played it yet, since I want to play Symphonia first.

So my favourite would be Tales of the Abyss, though seeing how much you guys like Vesperia and Symphonia, my opinion might change once I actually play those (which will happen sooner or later).
