I need to catch up on some tales.

Have Abyss 3DS ( my first tales of game), and then Hearts R is heading over for Vita.

I don't have a PS3 though, so I'm hoping I can eventually play all these on PS4.

Inception3649d ago

It will be a very very long time if you want to play this on PS4. I don't know if Namco interested to put all their Tales games on PS Now either.

So i'll suggest you buy a PS3 (it's cheap anyway) and buy a copy of Graces f, Xillia, Symphonia Chronicles, and later Xillia 2 and Zestiria before they became very rare and expensive like Tales of Destiny / Eternia on PS1.

3-4-53649d ago

I know I've considered it, but I could pay a bit more money and get a PS4 & I'd rather do that.

If these were like 5-6 Dragon Quest games then maybe I'd do it.

Inception3649d ago

Well if you want it that way than more power to you.

But to give you some picture of how long you must wait, i'll give you some example:

- Tales of Destiny for PS1 released in 1997. Nine years later Namco decided to remake the game for PS2.

- Tales of Symphonia for GC/PS2 released eleven years ago before Namco decided to remaster Symphonia & the sequel (Dawn of the new world) for PS3.

So, if you want to play some last gen Tales on PS4, than i think you need to wait for four-five years (minimal) to ten-eleven years (max).

3-4-53649d ago

It's not really a choice of IF I want to get a PS3.

I'd love to have one.

I just bought a Vita & Wii U & games + upcoming games I'm going to purchase.

I just don't have the money right now.

Cool, liked the first one (even tho I didnt like the ending)

DivineAssault 3649d ago

Ill try it out.. xillia 1 was boring in the begining but got better towards the end... I enjoyed it overall but the voice acting threw me off with the chick having a lisp... Very much enjoyed the combat but i didnt care for the party members as i did with vesperia.. we will see how this turns out.. I will support all tales games that release in the west

dcj05243649d ago

She had a lisp? Didn't even know.

DivineAssault 3645d ago

u must've not listened to the whole story then.. She had a lisp the entire game. Still great game overall though.. I really enjoyed every tales game ive ever played.. I just didnt like the liniar world in xilllia with no ship to fly across the entire world revisiting areas to collect new items.. Vesperia was my favorite so far but we wo;; see when this one comes out as well as tales of hearts r for vita.. That there is a day 1 buy for me

DemonChicken3649d ago (Edited 3649d ago )

Yes!!!

Hopefully the EU doesn't get shafted with a inferior collectors edition like tales of symphonia chronicles

The Tales Of series are some of the best RPGs I've ever played, and the characters are a big reason for that. I don't think I played a single game in the series that I didn't enjoy. Rest in peace.

Snookies1231d ago (Edited 31d ago )

Damn, that sucks to hear... His designs were always wonderful.

H931d ago

RIP, sheade some great designs, man it's one after the other this year

FinalFantasyFanatic30d ago

We're 3 months into the year and I feel like we're taking nothing but L's.

autobotdan31d ago

Wow she was the character designer for Tales of Destiny one of my favorites of all time =(

scorpio_204931d ago

I love the Tales games. Phantasia will always be my favorite. Ironically I felt like as the series progressed the character design became too “anime cliche.”

I’ve been hooked on the series ever since playing Tales of Xillia

jznrpg1719d ago

I hope they remaster or port a lot of the older games of the series to PS4/PS5

Immagaiden1719d ago

“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?

This is how the top JRPG series stack up

1. Pokémon - 340M
2. Final Fantasy - 144M
3. Dragon Quest - 78M
4. Monster Hunter - 52M
5. Kingdom Hearts - 30M
6. Souls - 25M
7. Tales of - 20M

How to get into Japanese rock and pop by listening to Tales series music

Lots of great Japanese games have major Japanese rock and pop singers providing the theme songs for them. The Final Fantasy series had Gackt providing "Redemption" for Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus and Hikaru Utada always provides the theme song for each Kingdom Hearts game. But if there is one series that reliably brings out the best singers and songs, it is Bandai Namco's Tales series. It routinely brings the bangers.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has one of the best soundtracks ever and the first Xenoblade Chronicles soundtrack is even better.
