The US port? That's great, I was wondering when I can play first-hand on a Tales game.

Workshop/DA/YT/Photobucket なにかんがえてるの!?
So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

Hm, that might mean I don't have to import Tales of Hearts if this is true.

The very first Tales game on DS to have a US release.

Turn out to be a fan-made screenshot from the ones responsible for ToI translation.

...and Tales of Phantasia PS1, which is delightful, but that's older. :P

I do hope they bring over the animated version of Tales of Heart. Those CG models look quite ugly and awkward.

I doubt they'd bring over the CG version considering how bad it did in Japan.

Yeah, leave CG to Final Fantasy. Tales of is much more charming animated.

Agreed.

Now we have to somehow convince Namco Bandai that we actually want the DS games coming over stateside.

...Say, how did Vesperia do out of morbid curiousity?

Hm... that's not what I'd call very good at all, especially considering the 360's install base. At the same time, the 360 isn't what I'd exactly call the "Kingdom of RPGs" That title usually falls in line with the PlayStation family... more so PlayStation 2.

"Prepare yourself for a blinding storm! Brilliant Overlord! Behold its splendor! Never fight a battle you can't win!"

Yep... looks like Guy now knows how its like to be on the receiving end of it... or a bootleg version of it. All it needed was an exploding orb of death. Pretty cool he's a secret boss, though.

So, how's bugging Namco to bring this over to the U.S. working?

Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology 2 Game Prologue:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGgNbQ_7sPs


Translation of the text from the official website:

"The people, blessed with the power of Mana, live their lives happily in the world of Granide.
An old legend goes that once the peace of this world is disturbed, the World Tree would produce a brave hero, the 'Descender.'

In Granide, there is a known guild called the 'Van Eltia' which has a ship as its base. A young girl, Kanonno, who is a member of this guild witnesses a strange occurence to the World Tree, a light from it reaching the heavens.

From the sky, a certain youth appears, and drops off on the deck.
However, our hero apparently lost his memories upon the impact of falling from the sky. He doesn't know anything, be it who he is, his motives, nor his memories.

Even still, he is a Descender, brought upon to this world, its peace beginning to be disturbed."

New video showing the latest and newest information on TotW: RM2

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IZwvXcDWng


We got a better look at the Purple-haired Red and Yellow eyed kid that could be the final boss or rival to the descender. And his design looks 10x better than Widdershin! And hopefully an awesome personality to match.

Namco is really putting a lot of effort into this game!

Also Soul Calibur costumes for the win!!! 8)

OK folks, after spending a good deal of my life with the fun yet flawed Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of The New World and lacking the funds or opportunity to get an Xbox360 for Vesperia, I have to ask everyone, what should I search out in the meantime to fill that "Tales of" craving?

Also, has anything been revealed about Tales of Wii as yet? I needs info dammit! XD

Of the English release ones, I suggest Tales of the Abyss... because Legendia is awful and feels unfinished, but I think you know that (the voice acting cuts out around 50% through the game)

Otherwise, pick up Tales of Phantasia on PS1 from your local... uh... "skull n bones" website and patch it with the English translation patch from AbsoluteZero. Good stuff there. I have it on my PSP. Bonus points if you played Symphonia.

I agree with VC, that was an epic opening for Radiant Mythology 2, especially with all the cross-character interaction. Sucks that the awesome japanese singing will probably be replaced with a not-as-satisfying lead guitar instead, as per Jap-to-US Tales standard..  :(

Another Tales of the World video

TotW: RM2 Guede
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSOhMdPqC3k&feature=channel_page

A video of the game's (supposed?) villain. He has a cool voice and his personality seems very interesting and it looks like his has a grudge/hatred against the Descender for some reason, judging by his speech and reaction.
