148apps - The storyline is excellent, and the voice-acting spot-on, but Tales of Phantasia is unbelievably let down by its free-to-play model and terrible controls.
Toby @ FG: The Tales Of series is 25 this year, but are all the retrospectives building up to something?
I would love some collections of older titles. A PC/Console port of Tales of Innocence would also be very nice.
Tekken 8 please without any of the over the top crazy guest characters. Tekken doesn't need the Walking Dead tv show characters. And it doesn't need Robocop or Terminator lol
The Tales games may be less recognizable than the Dragon Quest or Final Fantasy games, but that doesn't mean that they aren't worth playing!
“Tales series is considered one of the top three Japanese RPG series next to RPG giants like Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy.”
How you gonna talk about the top three JRPG franchises and not mention Pokémon, the top selling series in the genre?

But, Namco actually has more than just one famous name under it's belt and more specifically it has one of the greatest Role Playing Game (RPG) series under its belt! Starting from Tales of Phantasia in 1995 down to Tales of Berseria in 2016, Namco has taken the series from humble beginnings to current success. But, recently a new title is making it's debut around the the Western Hemisphere, and it promises to provide all players love from the Tales series right into your phone! Enter Tales of the Rays a spin-off from the main series, but a none-the-less great title within its own rights! Featuring characters from all of the previous Tales games, Tales from the Rays is the bite sized portable RPG you didn't want, but definitely need!"
