Is it just me or does the main character in Tales of Graces look an awful lot like Suzaku from Code Geass?

Asbel doesn't seem to have any spinning techniques, so you're on your own there.

Oh it's also getting added features and a playable character who is actually supposed to be someone COMPLETELY NEW. But whaddya bet it's gonna be just like almost everything else the Namco Tales studio did and will never be released outside of Japan because *Insert publisher here* paid for the localization? They did that with Destiny, Phantasia and Symphonia.

Namco's been an absolute dick to their non-japanese fans. Someone needs to buy the rights to localize them because Tales of Hearts was supposed to be REALLY good.

^I know that's probably going to happen, but I can still hope that Namco stops being a bitch.

I'd love to get my hands on the PS2 version of Symphonia.

I heard the PS2 of Symphonia lacked quite a bit in the actual gameplay department.

Of course, the PS2 remake of Destiny was incredible, so...

^^ What do you mean?

It had all of the gameplay of the original, just added things like the special attacks for everyone who doesn't have it in the Gamecube version (everyone except Lloyd, Colette and Genis), and new costumes and stuff.

It still suffered. Graphics were a bit jagged, frame rate would drop, and the game had longer loading times. It wasn't that long, but still.

Oh yeah, and they changed the GC emblem in the Desert Base to something generic.

I'd still like to get my hands on it. :{P

Too bad about the Desert base thing though. It could've been a PS2 in there or something.

Apparently it's also easier to recruit Kratos to your party in the PS2 version.

^ Um... it's not very hard in the GCN version either.

You refuse everyone in Flanoir.

Boom. Kratos ending.

Tres difficile. :{P

YouTube - Tales of the Abyss music - Meaning of Birth

<3

Speaking of badass musix, which game do you think had the best opening?

I say Abyss or Japanese ToS2.

Vesperia's was awesome aswell.

It's actually harder, as CL pointed out.

I liked the Vesperia opening, but that's because it's the only game where they actually bothered to translate the theme song rather than getting us an instrumental.

That said, some of the instrumentals are awesome, but sometimes I just feel like singing along really loudly so I can annoy whoever happens to be upstairs at the time.
