I'd probably import Xillia if it doesn't get localized, it looks that good.

And why does everyone here live in Florida?
I'll probably pre-order import it, it looks that good to me.

I don't~ I live in Hawaii! : D

Hm, really? Isn't Jude the healer of the game as well? That sounds pretty original for a main character to me.
Really? That'd make sense since he is a medical school student...

I only see two of us from Florida

I would, but there's always that chance that it could get localized, and I don't think I could buy it twice.

Don't forget BinaryPeaches. He lives in Florida too. xD

Yeah, there's always that chance... But the recent Japanese Tales game pre-order bonuses have been really cool, and most localization's.... aren't.

Most of the localization's bonuses are just artbooks of art you can find by a quick Google.

Whereas the Japanese pre-order of Graces F netted me: A big freakin' artbook with a drama CD signed by Inomata, along with pre-order bonuses ingame. Such as alternate costumes, extra artes, and new battle themes.

I heard that Vesperia PS3 got the same treatment, but the ingames were later released and improved over PSN... :/

Wow, maybe if we got bonuses like that the sales wouldn't be so bad in the States.

But Phantasia GBA wasn't even translated by Namco... :/

And seriously? Using Destiny PSX as an example? It was their first localization, and all the recent localizations have had wonderful grammar and next to no mistranslations.

I laughed while reading that, since I know Namco won't.

I have no real quarrel with the rest of the article-- I just find it sad they chose to pick on a game that wasn't even translated by Namco... And the first localization, back in the 90s.

lol, MS Saga? I actually love that game. :laugh: Kinda just skimmed through it, but I would agree with a few of their points.

That screenshot from ToP made me laugh a little. What part was that? I have the GBA version and don't seem to remember that line.

It's when you go to the Elven village for the first time... I think to fix some broken pact rings, or whatever. I just remember the part where Cress begs Brambie to fix Chester's Bow.

Here's some new Xillia info for you all.

Spoiler:

She is Jude's childhood friend, and is known to be kind-hearted. Despite her adorable appearance, she is quite formidable in combat and sports. Apparently, she uses sticks and clubs in battle.

I gotta say I'm a big fan of the Tales of symphonia series. Anyways, does anyone know if there will be a Tales of Symphonia 3.
Doubt they'd stretch it that far. Many people have suggested a prequel to the first ToS, but I think Namco-Bandai has moved on from Symphonia, which is sad since I found Dawn of the New World really disappointing.

That's mostly pointing out the obvious, and it's somewhat ignorant of Bamco's financial issues, but it has some good ideas. I hope we get Xillia too, we just need Graces F to sell well over here.

I'm not too sure yet. I think before we officially say that, we have to wait until the OVA has ended. I mean, it was between the two arcs in which they released DOTNW.

I think I'm going to get Graces solely so Namco-Bandai realizes how many fans there are. I don't have a PS3 to play it on, so unless I have borrow my cousin's, buying it would be the most I could do.

She's cute! Her clothing kinda makes me think of a cross between Yuri and Estelle's with a non-matching hairpiece. XD;

I'd say that's a good thing because otherwise they might give us more stuff like DotNW for ToS and that's a major do not want. I'd rather they leave it alone than mess up the canon anymore. :<

-bump-

So I was looking at Dat Loli, and realized she really reminds me of Alice from Dawn of the New World.

1) Her hairband. The placement is extremely similar to the pink band Alice wore as part of her... hat thing.

2) The color scheme in general. Pinkish whitish, the both of them.

3) The bottom half of their outfit looks extremely similar. I don't even need to explain, I believe.

^lol, Leia Roland is her official name.

I guess she does look a bit similar to Alice, but the Symphonia character designer is one of the character designers for this game as well, so it shouldn't be that big of a surprise to see some similarities within different characters.

...Leia.

Leia.

I will always think of Star Wars when I hear her name. >__<

And Roland will make me think of Luminous Arc. Goshdarnit Namco, be original. First Hisui/Kohak, now we have two cameos in one character! D: [/half kidding on this line]

And... I know, I was just pointing it out. Trying to bring some life to this club... ):

Hisui and Kohak were the brother and sister from Hearts, no? Had their names been used in another game?
Hisui and Kohak(u) were twin maids in a famous Japanese-only Visual Novel called "Tsukihime".
