So I went to GameStop today and picked up Gears of War 2... for .89 cents xD
Also picked up 3 for $9. Despite not playing the first yet, I just went with it because .89 cents... lol. I better like Gears Jay, or I'm taking all my anger out on a Jigglypuff!

Also picked up Crackdown 2 for $9 too.
More 360 games... yay!

Wait, did Vesperia actually sell good on 360?

Is 680k good?....well it was better than the PS3 version but was timed exclusive right? what were the sales of the other games?

Pretty good. I still don't get why they don't make the Tales game multi platform.

Because Vesperia 360 sold like crap on Japan. And Namco doesn't care about their fanbases outside Japan.

Namco sucks then, I won't be buying another game from them until they release Tales of games on more than one console.

Noble's been pretty brutal since this profile change. GIFs, and bannable threads, to attacking poor Phil :(

Edit: wtf Noble? You made Joanna cry! You'll pay for that one. 

Who is that lol.

Funnily enough, they do tend to publish tons of games around the world, either from Japanese or Western devs. But their own works? Man, they are stubborn.

SEGA is kind of the same.

It outsold the 3DS Tales of game in Japan...

Tales of Vesperia X360 2008 0.19
Tales of the Abyss 3DS 2011 0.14


Abyss 3DS was nothing but an experiment to see if Tales can succeed in handhelds and mobiles; still, Vesperia on 360 is one of the worst-performing Tales in Japan.

May be one of the worst in Japan but one of the best in every other country.  And really that is the thing, they need to learn they have a fanbase outside of japan.

Let me ask you a question: why do you think Namco never localized Vesperia Ps3?
