Thumbs up Tales of Symphonia

New pics!


Damn! This looks exactly like Star Ocean 3 with a brighter world and cel-shaded!!!!

And this time, the battle is in 3D instead of 2D (not that 2D was bad).









Main character

Wow, sorry for the hype but if you guys haven't played a Tales game before, then you're missing out on a fun RPG. Battle is in real time and I am a hardcore fan of the series. Here's the Gamecube sequel.... more will be shown at E3 this year!

RPG gamers galore!

Your thoughts?

Why does that picture feature a character with such stylish hair? Everyone knows in real life your hair can't look that cool nor could it remain that way through the day.

here be some info on the story:

The story is about Lloyd's journey to save the world from the verge of extinction, without sacrificing his best friend Collet, and they discovered the existence of a reverse-world named Teseara. Lloyd Irving is a 17 years old fencer; Collet is the descendent of of an angel from another world, she is also a childhood friend of Lloyd; and Genius is the chum of Lloyd, and excellent wizard.

Correction:

Tales of Phantasia = SNES game that wasn't released in the United States

On another note, the main character seems to wear his long sword on his right hip meaning that he will draw it with his left hand. What is it with the Japanese and left-handed main characters?

And on yet another note, Tales of Phantasia had some pretty mature language. I mean really mature. Like cursewords. And at one point, one of the girls apparently has a vivid dream of sleeping with the main character. Her sleeptalking is actually kind of disturbing...
