Decided to re-play the game to coincide with the American release. Just entering the Tephra Cave for the first time. Falling in love with it all over again!

I don't know if its worth the wait yet. EBGames never called to say my copy is in. I will go in around 1 this afternoon and pick it up if its in. I won't be able to tell you I enjoy it till likely this eve. Need at least two hours hands on before I could say I like it. The game play sounds impressive but the lack of visuals is disturbing to me. The trailers made the visuals look inferior to other Wii JRPG's it looked more like a beautiful game by PS2 standards. While graphics don't make the game they do definitely help, bad visuals or visuals that aren't very impressive put far more pressure on the game play to be stunning and I am not as confident I will find it as stunning as many others have. I'm not as huge of an RPG guy as I used to be. We'll have to wait and see if this game can truly impress me!

I can assure you, the bad graphics don't mean anything when you have the music pumping out and exploring the vast, detailed land, which just loook brilliant.

I thought it was exclusive to Gamestop?

I wonder how many people who voted for definitely not have even played the game or are just haters :/

GameStop owns EBGames! Bought them a few years back to expand into Canada. EBGames had a vice grip in Canada

Right up there with my favorites this generations like Tales of Vesperia and currently Tales of Graces F. I agree!  Have you played Tales of the Abyss BTW? How does it compare with those if you have?

I have Tales of the Abyss for PS2, bought it a couple years back after finally getting into the Tales series with Vesperia. Unfortunately though my PS3 60GB crapped out before I could ever really get into it.

Will probably pick it up when I get a 3DS. Knowing the Tales series though I would probably be better off buying the game now and not waiting until that eventual 3DS purchase.

I see. It's because I have been playing through Abyss 3D and enjoying it greatly, and I also enjoyed Symphonia. I'm gonna get Graces F when it releases over here, but I wanted to see how it stacked up (I here than Abyss is the best one, though). 

@JoeCool- I did not know that! I don't live in America so I wouldn't know...

Also, I've just obtained the Monado. Going well (doing a low-level run, lv. 8)

No, they go for 100 bucks used..

Really? I don't understand why there's such a difference to over here...no-one buys a new Wii anymore...

I noticed that if possible they don't call anymore. My gamestop sends me a SMS message, which I just checked and I had a message from them saying to come in a pick it up this morning.
