Wow, it wasn't a troll by Scamco USA.  Color me surprised.

Game is going to bomb regardless, but hope the localization is good and they don't cut shit like most Tales games.

How is this game

You don't like Abyss, so however Tales fans rank it doesn't apply to you :boo

Generally Tales community consensus is that Abyss >= Graces > ToDr > Rebirth > ToD2 > Symphonia = Vesperia > rest of them.

I'll more than likely pick up Graces F on launch day.

As part of the weeklong "event" that the Graces F announcement came from, Namco teased the Vesperia logo yesterday, I wonder if they're bringing over the PS3 version?

I actually just played the japanese demo (downloaded when I signed on to get the catherine demo--where did the RoF demo go? I thought there was one) and the combat was fun and the characters seemed alright.  I hope the main guy is as (relatively) manly as Yuri, and at least one of the characters is as good as Rita "Turbo Lesbo" Mordio was.

No shit. The original rumor had tales of graces wii pegged as coming over with the extra content of f.  Oh the butthurt will be glorious.  But not really, as I've said I'm fairly certain this is their ps3 market test.

I don't play games in hd because the wii isn't hd.  It's not enough a selling point for me to buy another console.  Achievements are in many wii games and ios games.  I have never not bought a game because it had them, but they're still dumb.  If anything I'm cheap and wary of buying another device to play games because I already have an ipod and a Wii.  I'm covered ~ BELIEVE IT OR NOT ~

Post by: EmCeeGrammar on February 02, 2011, 10:00:41 PM
You misunderstand.  It doesn't put their panties in a bunch, it evokes a feeling of sadness and sympathy.  Like those commercials with the little starving kids in Africa with the distended stomachs.

Well, like you mentioned, there are many pockets of despair throughout out world that are far more deserving of pity than someone perceiving your electronic joy toy as outdated.
Title: Re: Tales of Graces F coming soon to NA

I think feeling sorry for someone over their gadgets, belongings, or whatnot is kinda inappropriate.  Feel bad for starving children, addicts, people with no social awareness, refugees, homeless dudes, north koreans, etc.  I am in no way suffering or miserable because I play games on my wii and ipod and am 'missing out on the best of ehch dee gaming'.  Some may think me crazy and I delude myself on a constant basis and that this is pitiful.  Is there really a polite way to tell them to go fuck themselves?

I guess, if you don't mind some of the most embarrassingly poor story-telling this side of an 8th grade girl's diary.

as opposed to other Jrpgs? The story in FFXIII was so bad that they literly cant sink any lower.

  Yeah, Tales is the worst.  The stories are ham-fisted, awkward, reaching for complexity well beyond their ability, and uguu as fuck. 

Actually I think you just described FFXIII. Anyway, how it doesn't matter how bad the story is in the Tales series, atleast it cant sink any lower to the girlpower j-pop in FFX-II  :lol :yuck

Santa C seems to only keep tabs on 3 or 4 game franchises give or take and endlessly berates them during the lull between releases.

Castlevania, Zelda, Final Fantasy, tales, something else maybe.

nope, I am legitimately interested in any rpg that has good gameplay.

I wouldn't know about FFXIII, haven't played it.  Looked like it was going to be a turd and I've been done with FF for a while now.  No idea why you keep wanting to divert the conversation to FF.

Maybe because you said Tales is the worst serie of them all and I am trying to prove you wrong? But hey, you havent even played the latest FF. I doubt you touched a single Tales game for that matter.
