A power struggle begins in a civilization dependant on an ancient technology, the blastia, and the Empire that controls it. The fates of two friends traveling separate paths intertwine in an epic adventure that threatens the existence of all. Tales of Vesperia marks the first Tales RPG release in high-def with detail and graphics never before seen in the series. Now, real-time battles are more exciting than ever with over limits, the ability to unleash fatal strikes, combinations and burst artes. The next evolution of the revered role-playing series comes to the Xbox 360.
My only previous experience with the Tales series was Tales of Symphonia, but I bought this on a whim when I saw it in a store. I was not disappointed. The gameplay is better, it's just as long, the characters are very memorable, and the graphics are quite nice, if simplistic. The size of the game might make it a better purchase than a rental, though.
I played Tales of Symphonia in the past but this outdid it in every way. The characters are memorable, the gameplay is well-polished, the art is unique, and the storyline is epic.
This is the best JRPG I've played since Final Fantasy VII. If you're a fan of the genre then definitely give Tales of Vesperia a shot.
Tales of Vesperia is one of the best RPGs to come out last year, if you are a fan of the series, or new to the franchise -- this game will still deliver. Buy it.
I loved this game. I've never played the other Tales games before, but my friends told me about them.
I played this game because I am a fan of JRPGs and Microsoft picked a fantastic one to throw on the sweet console.
Not only did this game take my attention for 4 days straight, but the storyline and hilarious characters made it worthwhile and the action style RPG fights made the game actually fun to play.
Awesome game. I'll be playing through again later on.
I loved this game. Reminded me of the old RPGs like Chrono Trigger or Breath of Fire in its quality and style.
It's very well made, deep, and fun. A keeper.
