tales of vesperia

i know this is an old thread and all but i would definitely recommend ToV. It was a much deeper game than I thought it was going to be. I absolutely loved it!

well heres my say (i know im way late but may be helpful for others)

i am a HUGE TOS nut iv 95% the game and i hope 1 day to 100% it but iv beaten it atleast 20 times now just out of pure fun of replaying it because the character design,voice acting,interest in the story was all just a huge guilty pleasure and is still my all time favorite rpg

now i have played every Tales of game made and tho theres a few i want to use as a method of torture (tales of legendia) Tales of Vesperia was a lovely fresh rpg for the series the characters were well crafted and the story wasnt that bad it kept my interest all the way through. tho there are a few flaws in this game and Ragna pointed this out and ill address this a little better

360 version: there were towns,secret spots,scenes,and locations that either didnt make alot of sense or was just completely off limits along with the super weapon system, you beat the game with the devil arms and restart the game and you start with them unlocked..this was not true the game did not give you the weapons

ps3 version: i have not actually played this one out of my hatred of the ps3 console (i do own it) but i have heard it was a little more complete as some of the level issues such as finding spots in the 360 you werent able to get into along with weapons and arena system was far better (forgot to mention 360 arena mode wasnt finished you could only go so high then the game said "come back later" but it was never unlocked to finish)

so over all tho i despise the ps3 i would tell anyone if you are a fan of the Tales of series then go online or find a friend that has this rare game and play it its almost as good as TOS and in my opinion better then TOR (rebirth was good but the characters bored the hell out of me most of the time)....get this game for the ps3 if you can its a complete version as the 360 wasnt fully done
