I am not a 360 fanboy. I am geneuily interested in ToV since the Tales of series is suppose to be similar to Star Ocean in terms of battle system. The only reason I haven't played other games in the series is that I wasn't interested at the time. I couldn't play Abyss because FFXII came out at the same time.

Again, I think you are missing my point.
If I had a friend who expressed a lot of interest in Gears of War 2, I would tell them to buy and play Gears of War 1. It would be cheaper than spending $60 on a new Gears of War 2, and would give you an idea of the what the gameplay is all about. I really doubt that people who didn't like Gears of War 1 will enjoy Gears of War 2.
In the same way, if my friend expressed interest in Tales of Vesperia, I would tell him to try Tales of Symphonia/Legendia/Abyss first. Why spend $60 on a new game that you might end up hating? Instead, spend $20 on a used copy of an earlier game, and see if you enjoy that. This doesn't apply obviously to those without a PS2 or GC, but since you DO have a PS2, it's what I would recommend.
