JRPGs on the X360 in the US have had decent legs thus far:

 

Game First Week Life to Date Multiplier
Eternal Sonata 20,336 191,635 9.42
Final Fantasy XI 26,272 177,367 6.75
Lost Odyssey 101,277 484,328 4.78
Kingdom Under Fire: Cicle of Doom 36,173 172,433 4.77

Culdcept Saga 20,336 77,776 3.82
Phantasy Star Universe 34,031 96,248 2.83
Operation: Darkness 2,010 4,703 2.34
Spectral Force 3 13,283 23,832 1.79

Assuming ToV has average legs among titles that have been around for more than 2+ months.

A few weeks ago Namdai released a chart that said they expected Tales of Vesperia to sell 500K. This, coupled with the fact that there is zero advertising in the US for it leads me to believe that it won't take much for them to be able to turn a profit on the game.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Can someone help me?

I started playing the game with a friend and he was using Estelle. Every time he used First Aid, he healed himself even though I needed to be healed and Estelle ´s health was full .

How can he choose to cast First Aid on Yuri and not Estelle?

I tried left analog, right analog stick, start, back, everything and didn´t work. What are we doing wrong?

 After she finishes charging up the spell, keep down the A button and use the D-pad to change characters. then release to cast the spell.

Thanks for the reply. I tried this but with the left analog stick, not the D-pad. I´m so stupid

Thanks again

Quick question, am I allowed to link to the OST here, or would that be considered advertisement. I bet a lot of people want the ost.

Well, finally pop in Vesperia last night. So far I have to say my favorite JRPG this gen. I like it better than LO, the story grab you quickly, the characters are interesting and battle is awesome. So prop to you (and other Tales fanatic) for telling me to ignore that terrible demo and try the game out.

That demo is really horrible for non-Tales gamers to try out.

Most JRPG demos are, MysticD.

Every JRPG demo needs to be close(r) to Eternal Sonata....A fully fleshed-out demo that has the first few minutes of gameplay.

Please never call me that again. :/


And yeah, Im glad you like it, despite the abysmal demo.  I just hope namdai knows WHY they aren't getting great sales because of all the things they screwed up with this games advertising. But da** if I'm not gonna do everything I can to help advertise this game.

 Bump, because I'm listening to the OST from the Special Edition now and it rocks. Can someone answer him?
