TALES OF VS (or Scamco's take on Dissidia)
 

Seems like not a Retarded Lie Day joke to me:


Tales of VS - PSP - 2009

• A Dissidia style 3D versus action fighter.
• Up to four players supported.
• It seems like it uses a modified Radiant Mythology engine.

Playable Characters

Tales of Destiny

• Stahn Aileron
• Mighty Kongman

Tales of Symphonia

• Kratos Aurion

Tales of the Abyss

• Jerkface Luke Fon Fabre
• Anise Tatlin

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World

• Richter Abend

Tales of Vesperia

• Yuri Lowell

Tales of Hearts

• Shing Meteoryte

Other info today consists of a PS3 port of Tales of Vesperia, a movie about Tales of Vesperia, and the official title for the Wii game (it's Tales of Graces).

By the way, fuck this "cool guys" only schtick, I want some old-school representation. GIMME ARCHE

You just have made my day. I thank you good sir.

Hell yeah. Gimme some Cless and Arche. Hell, any of the Destiny characters while you're at it.

But looks fun. I will pick this up if I can. Being the massive Tales fan I am. And Tales of Grace huh. I gotta look into that. I know someone who will throughly enjoy another game to her collection.

Just because I love you:


Tales of Graces - Wii - 2009

• Character designs are by Inomata.
• Disco Swordsman dude's name is Aspen Lant or some shit.
• The theme of the game is protecting people, and the main character doesn't want to lose anyone ever again.

Vesperia PS3 has a new character -a loli pirate. I guess that justifies paying full price for a year-old port. Somehow.

I actually never thought i would feel this way about it... but i really hope Emil (Dawn of the New World) makes it there! I totally want to dash some Ain Soph Aur!!

Loli pirate? SIGN ME UP!

...I know that this may not be the place for me to editorialize, but FUCK THAT.

TALES OF VESPERIA SPOILER ALERT!

Tales of Vesperia was a great game -- one of my favorites last year -- which managed to plow through an incredible number of RPG cliches while introducing surprisingly mature thematic elements in a story that managed to be fresh, old, and sophisticated at the same time.

To say nothing of the voice acting, which is undoubtedly the best I've ever heard in a JRPG. Which is to say, I hate all children in every video game ever because their voices are attuned to the KILL center of my brain, but everyone else was great.

I am going to try my best to reserve judgment, but right now I feel as though my belief that Yuri Lowell is a badass was a huge lie. Dude hangs out with loli pirates, am I right?

I hate the soft-color cartoonish style that just about every single JRPG these days just absolutely has to have, but Vesperia managed to convince me that you could make a game where everyone looks like a Precious Moments figurine and then have them not suck to an astonishing degree.

...And it looks like I was mistaken...

I thought "Seto Kaiba" before "Disco Swordsman".

Also, "Scamco"?

You've not heard of their DLC scams with Soul Calibur IV and Ace Combat? The term comes from those.

I'm mainly voicing my disapproval at the lack of Tales of Hearts and Tales of Innocence localisations.

I agree with the lack of many Tales game localizations. That issue must be rectified. I demand the localization of the Destiny remake and Destiny 2. Appease your fans Namco!

Thanks for the Graces info. Much appreciated. That dude looks like he belongs in the Disco era. Also, is it its own story or a sequal. I always heard rumors of an Abyss sequal, which is my favorite of the series, bar Luke Von Deuschbag at the beggining.

I just love the fact that Vesperia is getting the PS3 port. I always thought that the Playstation (1,2,3) was the true console for the series. But that's what I think.

And lawl to Scamco

Like Dissidia I think Tales of VS would be much better suited to a console release. Also I hope they don't make Dissidia's serious mistake and make you grind levels just to learn an entire moveset.

Oh mudah, you ever the optimist. :p

They will never surrender to your demands.
