This is hands down the best Tales game to have come out. The combat is fantastic and I love the anime style graphics. The story was good and I really like all of the characters. I hope the future Tales games keep this new and improved battle system. Buy this game now.

Friendship is a fairly common theme across games in the Japanese role-playing genre. You might call it cliche to center a game's story around the bonds that form between an ensemble cast of misfits on a grand adventure, and you would not be wrong.

Deepest combat of the series; Story breaks free of cliche; Titles offer high customization

Unbalanced difficulty; Weak prologue lasts too long

A good JRPG that needs more to make it great in the West.

Nostalgic to JRPG standard; Fluid; immersive combat; Title system: phenomenally addictive

Slow; slow plot; Old style graphics; Some zones become nunecessary labyrinths

This is my second review for this game and, to me, this game really let me down after completing the entire thing, Main story and epilogue all the way through. Fans of Vesperia will be vastly disappointed with the TERRIBLE storyline. I swear, if I hear about friendship one more time, I'll go crazy.

In addition to always flying business class, dining on fine caviar and cavorting with celebrities, there are several good reasons why it's good to be a game reviewer. For starters, you might very well possess a vivid enough imagination to conjure up said slew of imaginary perks.

The few; the proud; the PS3 J-PRG; Captivating storyline; Engaging all-around experience

Modest learning curve; A bit strange at times via translation; S-l-o-w progression

Despite rarely gaining as much attention as other JRPG classics like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, Namco's Tales series is actually quite prolific. The series' claim to fame has always been exciting combat coupled with a colorful cast and strong character interaction, rather than deep stories or...

Final Verdict: Side quests and extras add even more time onto the already fifty-hour long campaign. All the wonderful parts of the game overcome the few flaws, making it a must buy for true RPG fans.

The story in Tales of Graces f follows the protagonist Asbel Lhant throughout his quest to gain the power to protect his friends. It's a pretty cliché story but the varied cast of loveable characters more than makes up for it. It's actually told in three different time periods.

In a world where three colossal nations vie for power, brothers Asbel and Hubert Lhant are more interested in their childhood adventures. But, on finding an amnesiac girl in a field of flowers, a series of events is triggered that will haunt the youngsters into adulthood and beyond.

is the HD remake of the Nintendo Wii role-playing game released back in 2009.
