1 word...Amazing
This game is a reason for people to buy Gamecube(Well RE:4 is the best reason :] )
I put so many hours into this game and finished 3 times.
Anyone who hasn't played it, borrow it or buy it or something. |

Tales of Destiny is better than that.
Tales of Symphonia is great. My 4th favorite Tales game : o.

The improved battle system in ToE is better though.  |

Eternia's battle system is very much improved from what Phantasia/Destiny used, and the battle system is the most important thing to me :P

I know, but I like the feel of Destiny and Phantasia's battle systems more. It could be because I played Phantasia a lot more, though =\.
If you guys like Eternia's battle system, you would love Rebirth. Same style, but on 3 different plains. Second best Tales game, in my opinion.

I love that game. Currently on the second playthrough, just beat Celcius yesterday and got 24311 EXP for it. I LOVE the Combos upgrade, and it only costs 50 EXP. :D
If you don't have it already, I highly recommend you buy it. I estimate I'll put in well over 150 hours before I'm done with it. (I'd also recommend Super Monkey Ball, but be warned that it's just as addicting and you'll wear out three controllers playing it. XD) | EXE. wrote: | | I have been playing it for nearly 70 hours and have not yet completed it!!! |
Well, my first playthrough took me well over 60 hours, and I've logged a total of nearly 100 hours on it. 70 hours isn't half bad.

I'd like to try it eventually, but I probably never will considering that currently I have no way of playing PS2 imports, and probably can't afford to buy a Japanese PS2. :/

You can buy a slide card and CD. They are relatively cheap and easy to find and use =P. Mine is called "Swap Magic". It's really worth it =).
Has anyone seen the Tales of Eternia anime?
My first Tales of Symphonia playthrough took 45-55 hours. It only took 3 days. Then I spend 30 more hours doing random crap, cause I felt like it >.>;. I loved the Farah, Meredy, and Woodrow(Garr) cameos =P. Farah and Woodrow are among my favorite Tales Characters ^^.

I watched all of it a few weeks ago.
By the way, shouldn't this topic be renamed to 'Tales games' or something? |

That would be much better, wouldn't it?
What did you think of the anime? I rather liked it. It had some game music in it and it was animated pretty well =).

I like the fact that they showed Farah and Marone naked. 
Okay, jokes aside, I really liked it. Somewhat disappointing that it was only 13 episodes long, and the ending was sort of bad. I also like the anime Rid more than the game one. I think it's his hair that bothers me in the game.
The episode with Coreena and Meredy trying to find jobs was pretty funny. >.> |

So sexah ; o. It was funny when Rid "popped in", though =P.

I agree. The anime Rid was drawn and designed a lot better than the game's Rid. I wish they put more of Rid's cooler attacks in =\. That's the thing Eternia has over the other game, the attacks are freaking awesome.
The ending was bad, but it was cool when they were destroying the ship =P. The only thing I hated about the anime was Coreena. Hearing "-desu" after literally everything got really old, really fast =\.

Yeah XD. And of course they had to stick some perverted old men in there >.>;. Silly Japanese =).

I rented Tales of Symphonia since a friend had it, and I loved it to death. Now my only problem is that nobody sales it ><.
Now that I've played ToS, along with several other real-time RPG's, turn-based ones seem rather, "bland". Then again, they never had that great of a battle system (except Pokémon, that's still fun for some reason).
Now that theres a Tales of Phantasia anime, I may torrent it. I saw some clips of it and it was pretty neat (what with the Maxwell and all)
I also played a bit of Tales of Phantasia (Not all of it though.) The best part is renaming characters to people you know in real life =P.

Download it! It's great!! It's very well animated and very cool =P. Too bad it is only 4 episodes long =(.
