Fun title, but I prefer my RPG's to have a lot more darkness about them. Could 360 world actually get someone who likes JRPGs and not just Final bloody Fantasy to review them.
I'm gonna instantly add 2 points to the score because i've never played a bad tales of game and these guys are unnecessarily harsh.
The review they did of Star Ocean says it all really the games a master piece but because its fantasyesque in a sci fi setting. its obviously shit becasue the guy can't get his feeble little mind around it.
I'm guessing vesperia got a better rating because he didn't have tothink so much during battles.
Go back to running and gunning you retards. Is somebody going to actually release a decent JRPG this gen? A bit harsh Monkey! Can't speak for the latest one but Star Ocean: Till the end of time on PS2 was an absolute bore fest! As was infinite Undsicovery... as was Last Remnant... oh dear. Why do I keep buying these JRPG's? Maybe I'm hunting for the next FF7 or Skies of Arcadia.
Never played these Tales of games- they look horrendously cute for my tastes- but I'm willing to try this one in my never ending quest.
@Mark: Lost Odeyssey (spelling- again), easily the besy JRPG this gen... but it isn't perfect. Get's a good 7.5/10 from me though. Persona 4.
Ok, it's on last gen console, but came out this gen :lol: I enjoy playing a JRPG over the summer game drought. Ive finished Eternal Sonata and Lost Odyssey and liked them both. I normally wait til you can pick them up cheap.
Since I hate Namco will probably do the same with this, Il share my opinion with you guys some time next year probably. i'd probably have to say the review was not bad at all but the final score contradicted all the praise it got. Now i am sure most people wont even read the review and just look at the score which is a shame.
and dated is seriously a downer? would they give tht to a halo game????????? Well that really depends on personal preference on what you think makes a decent JRPG. Personally I have enjoyed some of the JRPG's this gen although there have been a couple of stinkers too. i like star ocean 4 on xbox360. will this be a good game for me? battle seem to be smiliar. Depends on your definition of 'decent' of course, but i really enjoyed Lost Odyssey. It had in my opinion, one of the most rounded collection of characters since the Gamecube's Tales Of Symphonia - i'd defo recommend it.
I've been looking forward to Vesparia since it was announced, and it's review, despite the writer seemingly getting the score mixed up with a PS3 shooter sans multiplayer, doesn't dampen my enthusiasm. :lol: |
