There are encounter links in ToV? That's new. Pretty cool. Things can get chaotic then. I remember in Eternia though there was like a 1 vs. 10 battle (not an encounter link, this encounter link thing is new to Tales) fight lol. This makes me wonder what they'll add in future Tales.

@sc

Vesperia is equal to Destiny in terms of story in your opinion? Well...Destiny DOES have the 2nd best story in Tales games :P

The character developement in vesperia is better imo, while the back story in Destiny is better. So both cancell eachother out.

Ugh...I hate it when stores don't supply enough copies of a Japanese game nowadays unless they're called FF :( I think DotNW should get some plentiful supply just because it's Symphonia though. But this is just annoying.

 

3 gamestops, I had to call to find it. Every last one of them had to get me to spell the game for them, and one of them told me that it didn't exist and I must be talking about Tales of Symponia.

 

I hate that some of the Gamestop employees don't even know about the existance of certain games

Judith FTW. Estelles not bad though.

 

@ further above comment: WTF is wrong with gamestop? Do people not know what a good JRPG is anymore?

 

 

They had also never hears of No More Heroes when I purchased it on launch day, and they told me that they were absolutely sure that Persona 3 didn't exist when FES launched(because I forgot to tell them it was called Shin Megami Tensai: Persona 3) and just asked for Persona 3, so I ordered it online because they told me that there wasn't a Persona 3 like 10 times, after I flamed them in a horrible Hanibalesque way.



I don't need your console war.

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Could be good or bad; Good, they have all sold out of it. Bad, they only had a few copies to begin with.

ToV was poorly stocked in the stores in my area as well. My premium didn't show up in the mail today, so guess it'll be tuesday delivery :(
mrstickball on 30 August 2008

To be fair about the premiums - Namco only announced it two weeks before ToV shipped in the US. I don't think that with that short of notice, that retailers could properly determine stocking levels, and grossly underestimated demand for the CE.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Ugh...I hate you Gamestop :( I want every Tales game to sell as much as possible so the series gets bigger (it's definitely worth it!) and more Tales games get localized (Tales of Innocence, I'm looking at you ).

The feeling is absolutely mutual. The Tales series has never got the recognition it deserves, and ****it I hoped Vesperia would fix that. it may be too early to tell though...

What's worse, the Best Buy in my area (and beyond) didn't even know they had it!

I had to order online and do store pick up for me to catch the idiots attention to get it.

But I did!

Symphonia is pretty recognized though.

I just wish more would get recognition...

Bah.

1) 500K isn't that recognized.

2)Abyss was better then Symphonia, and Vesperia is the best of them all, yet I don't know if it wil get the 1 million sales it deserves.

3) I'm talking about the tales series as a whole as well. 

 Granted, the people who have noticed Tales love it. But is should be MORE people.
