Tales of Graces ƒ confirmed for NA

[dalucifer0]

Not buying a localized version. No way am I paying $60 for a game I already own.

And ToGF's battle system rocks. Been too busy lately to play it, but it's awesome. Story...typical Tales. If you already enjoy Tales games, you'll like ToGF. This isn't a game to change your mind on the series or anything.

Honestly?

If Namco brings over a Tales, ANY Tales, and it does not sell, causing them to refuse to localize any more after that, then Tales fans (especially on Namco's FB page.... Ugh), better NOT complain. This is their chance to support the series they want here so bad.

That seems unfair since Bamco has such awful marketing.

[kyuusei]

Which is even more of a reason for Tales fans to spread the word so it at least has a chance of selling. It's one thing to spam Namco with 'I WANT TALES' tweets, another to put their money where the mouth is. In this case 60-70 bucks.

Haha - looks like they changed to splash image - it's more distorted and unidentifiable, and it's on a separate layer as a png file called "blueberry".

Anyways, I like that Filthy Rich fella they have at NBG; he sure knows how to be cool with people who tweet him - especially some of the retarded Facebook lunatics (lit.) shouting "fuck you's" every which way.

Yeah filthie rich seems like a pretty cool dude. They hired him as a community manager, mostly because of his involvement with the Tekken scene. I'm sure he's used to really retarded shit since he has been around the fighting game community for a long time, so tales fans won't phase him much.

Oh and they added a date to the pic.  2/2/11

The Pac Man characters in the new pick disturb me.

Trolling much?

This is some GOOD news......that is if the teaser is actually Tales of Graces.

Sounds like Vesperia probably won't make it to the PS3 outside Japan after all.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - you're not missing much.
One of the biggest gyps is a lot of the new dialogue in story-cutscenes is the new characters' one or two lines, then it resumes the script of the X360 version.  

[Kevadu]

You seem to be ignoring people who have a PS3 and not a 360, Dice.

[Ashtrot]

MS paid for part of localization and marketing of Vesperia. It's a given the PS3 port won't come over.

Only one thing concerns me now....

In Japanese, it works.  They say "A-su-be-ru"....
But I can't help but giggle when I think of the name in English.
I drew a picture to display this...

Okay, that's basically the greatest thing ever.

If you just soften the s and call him "Azbel" it shouldn't be a problem.

Speaking of Graces. This is probably the Team Destiny's 2nd game to ever be localized (does Tales of Eternia count? If so, then 3rd).

Neither count, Kazuya Ishizuka started doing game design with Destiny 2. This will be the first Team Destiny game we'll be getting since Hometek/Sony hated 2D last gen.

Finally looking forward to seeing what the their take on the battle system is like.
