Ever since the previews last December, Tales of Vesperia looked amazing! Even now at its release, it still continues to excite me. At first, the graphics wowed me. Definitely a great step for the series. The music, done again by Motoi Sakuraba, is amazing. I love the Ring a Bell remixes that were done. Even the opening song, Ring a Bell by BONNIE PINK, is amazing. It's one of my favorite songs. I didn't really have an opinion about the characters until I played the game. My favorite characters are Judith and Raven (how can you not love them?). The cutscenes themselves are amazing. There really isn't anything negative I can say about this game. If you have a 360, then get the game. If you don't, then get out and get one! This is one game you should definitely not miss out on!!!

This is one the best series of Tales SAGA to come for the Xbox360. The game has great graphics and animation with voice overs during dialogs.
The game battle system has been upgraded from the old series and the AI setup has been improved. The battle events are more in-depth than before. The story and environment makes this game very fun and entertaining. The characters have unique story development. I fully recommend this game and you wont be disappointed.

it was kinda delivered a little long but it was worth it! it packaged nicely and the gameplay is great! It had the bonuses with game that included music and some illustrations in the manual. great story and characters also! If you are a tales fan, then u will no doubt enjoy this game.

I bought this game twice awhile back (first time the standard edition and then the premium). I started playing the Tales series games back when ToS was first released dubbed in America and immediately fell in love with the franchise.

Tales of Vesperia is no exception to the outstanding work that Bandai/Namco have invested into the franchise and is in my opinion, the best one yet. I've currently caught up on all of the franchise series with the exception of Phantasia, which I'm in progress of playing. ToV offers the perfect blend of story, action and adventure you would expect from the franchise and is in its self a unique JRPG experience.

I would recommend that anyone who is a JRPG and/or anime (very anime oriented style/cutscenes) fan to take an interest in the franchise, and what perfect game to start with than ToV.

I was never a Tales fan per se prior to Symphonia which was excellent. I'm happy to report Tales of Vesperia is better than Symphonia in every way.

The characters are all pretty deep and well done. Voice acting is great and the animations are solid. Combat is fun and I spent over 150 hours destroying this game. The darker tale of Yuri is much more interesting than your cliche hero in Flynn (Secondary character). Media outlets have really under rated this game. Easily a 9/10 in any JRPG fans eyes.

Overall:
Must buy for ANY JRPG fan.

This is a great and fun game, the history got me from the start and has so many political and social themes that can be compared with the actual world. Is a most have for RPG and tales fans, besides, the premium edition is great because of the metal box and the soundtrack of tales games.

The product arrived just in time, and in perfect condition. You might not like the design or navigation of the hubbagames webpage (me neither) but they're do the job like professional people!

Great Game. Love all the characters in games. Good dubbing on the voices and the battle style. Long Game and worth playing every minute of it. The Animation movies in this games are great and would love to replay it again.

I've always been a huge fan of all the Tales games over the years and it really stinks that the majority of those games have not been brought over to the states. Vesperia technically came out for both the 360 and the PS3, with the PS3 version getting a few extra bonuses over the 360 version. However, looking at it right now, it doesn't seem they are going to bring the PS3 version to the states. If you are an RPG fan, especially a Tales fan, with a 360, you probably already own this game. However if you just bought a 360 or think that the 360 just doesn't do great RPGs, then you need to buy this game. It has been a bit difficult to find a copy of this game around me recently, but I would recommend buying this game if you see it. At the time of this review, Namco has not yet said whether or not they are bringing the new instalment, Tales of Xillia, to the states anytime soon. If they don't release that game here in the states, this would be the latest original Tales game to have come out in the US, not counting the Tales of the Abyss remake coming out for the 3DS. If you haven't figured it out yet, this game is a definite buy for any and all RPG fans, regardless if you like the Tales series or not. But if you are a Tales fan, you owe it yourself to show Namco that there are plenty of fans of their series here in the States and that they should start bringing all the Tales games over here.

I don't really understand why there's different version of TOV, just the price I believe or maybe addition features to it. BTW, this game is a must have. I got mine off BestBuy and it was great. Love the stories. It's comedies, dramas, etc... Everything I guess. I like how this game makes me laugh every movie/talk scenes. Original price of the regular TOV is reasonable and yet overall; this game's rock!!!

the game had a good story, while it could lag in some areas overall it was good. the graphics where excellent for this design. i recommend this for a parent who is looking for a kid friendly game or for a person looking for a non-intense rpg

the one down fall for this game is this:
if you have a ps3 and a xbox360 you should wait and buy the ps3 version because they are going to introducing a new playable character
