Great anime game
Playing Tales of Vesperia is participating in an anime. You don't get too engrossed into a single character as opposed to the progression of the group. The characters have different personalities that ocassionally clash for humorous moments. The story is very light-hearted and entertaining; it is the group's overall development that'll keep you playing/watching.
The game play is fairly smooth with a very interactive combat system that completely breaks the monotonous Menu-Select combat traditional RPGs deploy. I highly recommend this game if you find anime entertaining.
Great Game, Good Buy
This game is very fun to play it may take a while to get used to the gameplay but once you do this game is a great addition to your collection. Much better than infinite undiscovery
A classic RPG gem in your Xbox 360?
Better believe it.
This game reminds me of the great Grandia series from the Saturn and Dreamcast days. Real-time combat, great storyline and characters, pretty decent voice-acting.
You won't be able to put this one down. If you enjoy RPG's at all, you deserve to play through this game at least once.
Great Game!
I haven't played a game this good in awhile.. seems easy at the beginning but the bosses get hard! There's battle formations and weapon synthesizing. I haven't got that far yet but I can tell it's gonna get even harder.
Namco does it again
I've been Tales of Series games for a long time, This is my fifth Tales of game I've played.
This game got what all the other games has, an anime styled story that makes you feel like you're watching and involved in an anime styled movie. You play as Yuri Lowell who is a former knight of the Empire. Yuri not one of these lawful heroes either he plays the antihero that doesn't mind breaking the law for the greater good.
I love how you learn your skills on this game, You learn them by equiping your weapons, your weapons will have usually three skills that can be learned by using the weapon for an x amount of battles.
I also love they have an archer again. Last few Tales of games have not had an Archer class character. So I love having one on this one.
The game's humor is where it always is with Tales of games. You have the hothead Rita who will punch you in the face if you make her mad, you have the super sweet and naive Estelle, you have the perverted Raven the Great who always getting rejected it. The scary cat Karol who probably scared of his own shadow.
This is one of the best rpgs on the 360. If you're a fan of Tales of you'll love it but, if you never played one this would be a great Tales of Game to get know what Tales of is all about.
