"Comic, fun, and definately worth a go!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game has been a great role-playing game. It keeps you attracted to the story and characters and makes you want to keep on playing. With a lot of simple-comedy Tales of Vesperia also keeps you laughing at random parts through the game.

The combat system I've found is very well structured. There are a few mini-games further into the game. One of which is poker (addictive).

The costume change-feature based on titles and certain equipment is also a pretty nice element to the game!

I recommend you get the free downloadable content, but leave the ones you pay for until your second play-through.

Overall, Tales of Vesperia is definately a game worth trying while you wait for any other titles, or just in general!!

Great graphics, great story, great casting and best of all a great game!

"best jrpg on the system yet"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game has all the right hooks to draw you in, and all the eye candy in the world to make this the sweetest JPRG game I have tasted in a long time. There is a reason that this game made the xbox360 consoles sell out in Japan. While the “Tales” series of games havnt traditionally got the attention that the “Final fantasy” series has gotten, it has still over the years held its own in a niche kind of way. This if it is a sign of things to come will change that and put it as a series in the same ring with the heavyweight “final fantasy”. As a JRPG it has the right ammount of depth and customisation to be interestingwithout being cumbersome. The story telling is engaging making you feel like you are actually getting to know real people, and the witty non essential banter between characters adds to the charm of it all, all served up with an ample serving of top notch anime.

Looking forward to seeing “Tales” in an another incarnation being released on the Nintendo wii in the hopefully not to distant future.

Dont wait for Final Fantasy 13 this is a delcious entree.

"Fun game with entertaining characters"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I'm really enjoying this game. The characters are great, and the look/design is very good. Some aspects of the battle system are a bit fiddly, but as each new battle option is introduced gradually throughout the course of the game you don't get overwhelmed with trying to remember what everything does, plus you don't need to use all of them to get through the game.

Classic RPG action with a lot of humour added in, definitely a fun game.

"Great Game good value for money"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is a must have game for gamers new to the action/rpg genre or for veteran players looking for a challenge – lots of fun to be had single or multiplayer co-op. Hours of playability, downside there is no online co-op and no individual account achievements when playing together. Great art style and the free flowing battle system is a great addition

"Great fun and multiplayer!"
5 stars"

I bought this the other day and am having heaps of fun with it, Its a game with that ‘epic’ feel to it.

The combat system could still use a bit of tweaking but there's nothing that really detracts from the overall game.

I highly recommend buying this if you like anime or enjoyed games like final fantasy 7 or lost odyssey or even if you just want something with a ‘new’ feel to it.

Tales have been a very nice series, unique combat mechanics and heavily story driven.
