Hmmm...could get Sly + Soul Sacrifice for ~$15, but SS seemed kinda meh to me and I could got Sly PS3 for about that price with crossbuy.

Why did you feel it was Meh? It's actually free on PS+ right now, no reason to buy it really.

If you want Sly, just buy it from Amazon - you apparently get the cross-buy even with the digital version.

Sly Cooper PS3 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0050SXU3Q/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0050SXU3Q&linkCode=as2&tag=thbo09f-20)

I dunno, I was expecting more of an RPG, but you just fight in arenas. I didn't really play it enough to figure out all the systems though, so maybe I'll give it another chance.

I haven't played it but I would totally buy it for that price. Artsy puzzle platformers are usually fun.

This is just the PSP version of Peace Walker, so no.

No, but you can map buttons to the right analog stick.  I tried it and found it too sensitive.

It's ok, I've played like 18 Tales games and it's one of the only 2 or 3 I bailed on and never finished because the gameplay was so bland (think FFXIII but better).  I've heard the story is good, so eventually I'd like to get back to it and see the tale through (no pun intended).

If you're gonna play 1 modern Tales I'd either go with Vesperia (great story for first half, lol Tales story for 2nd half, decent battle system, gorgeous graphics, 50-60 hour meaty full content rpg) or Graces F (weak story but it moves at a decent pace, awesome battle system, 30 hour smaller world/adventure rpg + 5-10 hour epilogue expansion).

Or you can wait for Zestria and see if it combines Xillia's good story-telling with Graces good combat.

What Bebpo means to say is - for $10 it's a good buy.

I would say that Graces F is longer than Vesperia in terms of content.
