Ok my net is out and at a friends computer but I've seen the video releases of Tales of Graces and I am in love. Anyone here agree in the fact that we all hope they release it in the U.S. It looks gorgeous the plot is coming together and I am having a tales withdrawals.

^ There is no danger of it not coming to the US since certain games (I think Abyss being one of them) sold more copies here than in Japan. They know there are a bunch of us Tales of whores over here so they'll definitely release it here. :{D

Yeah I figured that it would come to the States. Yet I'd like to hold my happiness until I see them get the voice actors or set an American release date. So I want to believe you but I want to wait.

This could happen...maybe in a slim chance. After the second symphonia tanked I think they are weary of it because from what I see its on the wii. This could be whether or not they continue tales on the wii. Their test in a way.

Also played the beginning of the Phantasia anime. Chester is even more of a bad***! Sorry to put so many odd and indefinite things in here but I'm hoping to revive the tales thread seeing as how it's one of the few I check into a lot. I will try to have a report on my findings of Graces by next weekish. Maybe I have a theater fundraiser for thespian.

For all we know they might localize it if it sells really well in Japan. Dawn of the New World received mixed reviews anyways. (Even in Japan) But who usually localizes the games anyways?

They've usually localized all the console games in hte US since Legendia anyways, of course that can't be said about most of the handheld titles...

Welcome to 2006...it was put on the GBA. No, don't tell me about all the "Sexual innuendos" and "Swear words" on the SNES Rom you played...the DeJap translation was less faithful to the original script than the official release. Because not everyone knows Japanese in part with how it's rather hard to say when they would be cussing (if they were speaking a language that actually has "swear words", that is), it's easy to be fooled by subtitlers and scanlators making a character who's just being rude cuss like a sailor. Even the professionals have trouble with that.

But there were some there if I recall, and there is that whole "Ragnarok" being "Kangaroo".

Yeah the translators were off a bit on the snes version. But a lot of older games that weren't well known in the states received less than adequate translations. But the GBA version is pretty good. From what I could tell anyways.

Still though Tales of Hearts would be pretty nice to get out here in the states.

I just got Tales of the Abyss.

I'm at the part where Luke gets his "Sissy Warrior" Status.

There, now I can speak with everyone else

The only Tales of games I've gotten to play were Symphonia and Vesperia, and both games were amazing. Great story, fun gameplay, awesome to play with a group of people. My only complaint is walking around through forests and how borinig it is, but that's completely overshadowed how epic the games are overall.

Huh?^


To tazy/ aquatic mine: yeah it is pretty epic. What is your favorite part so far and have you played with another person on it yet?

To codenameV: Yeah the forests were definitely not my favorite part but still if it was 100% fun we would never get off the game for silly little things like food and hygiene.

My thoughst on the GBA version of Tales of Phantasia was that I felt it was alright and I did like it, but honestly I was getting driven insane with the battles. They're kind of...well chuggy. Even moreso than the first two "Star Ocean" games. I think that's just the game boy advance really...they're basing it off of the PSX version which from my experience is much less chuggy.

And of course, let's just say that I had Cress, Chester, Suzu, and Mint in the final battle because Arche and Klaus were just driving me insane with how often they'd freeze up the battles.

I haven't really come up with a favorite pat yet, but when Luke uses Mieu as a weapon is pretty funny to me.

I have played with Jenocide, but it was completly on accident and I had to learn to reverse it. Of course, she was pretty good at Guy.

Jade's more of "Oh yeah I did this in the past, yeah. *shrugs*" and pretty much downplays the thing that happened.
