"But at the same time, there's a little bit more personal elements in there, and some of the themes in the game with loss, retribution and the sadness of war, I think they're coming through a lot more in this game."

First and foremost wowzers at teh hotness that is Maria Ozawa.

Secondly I only played Tales of Vesperia over the weekend. Currently at around the 20 hour mark and man is this game ever great. Really good story and cast of characters and none of them have been annoying. I'm really enjoying the battle system which seems tighter then usual and some new additions such as Fatal Strikes and Fatal Strike Chains are quite cool. I have yet to take control of other party members to try out all their moves and stuff as I'm still really just playing around with the main character's setlist and controls. The AI seems to be doing a good job controling my teammates. Setting up various different skills in conjunction with performing different artes to learn new moves is quite deep and really offers a lot to play with. Also the soundtrack is excellent and makes me wish I had picked up the Collector's Edition that came packed with a soundtrack cd which was only $10 more. The game simply looks gorgeous to boot.

Does the game have a world map? What's it like? How does it work?

Yeah there is a world map to explore and you're free to wander around like in the classic RPG sense. You have a map you can look at to see where all the towns and other locations are but the whole world isn't immediately visible. The map fills in as you explore. You can see enemies so you can avoid them if you want to so no random encounters. A neat aspect is that if you encounter an enemy and there other enemies in the immediate vicinity those other enemies will join the fight in what is called a Linked Encounter and you'll have to fight them all at once. They have to be very, very close by though so you won't get into big tough battles too often by accident.

Didn't Cliff do some commentary or something in the Metal Gear Solid 4 Collector's Edition? Perhaps a little of Kojima rubbed off on him. Why does that sentence sound a little nasty. LOL

I liked this part:

"There's still a fair amount of jock, fratboy, macho bullshit in the game. I'm not going to lie."

He just described the first game. Nyaa

How easy is it to avoid enemies and is there a harsh penatly if you do? i.e not levelled up enough to beat dungeons or bosses?

It's not really too difficult to avoid enemies but they're fairly competent too so they can catch you at times. I usually fight a good number of times while I'm exploring or travelling from location to location but I have yet needed to hang around any area to level grind for any bosses but the bosses do put up a good challenge without totally wiping the floor with me. I would say that while you don't want to charge through areas without battling any enemies there doesn't seem to be a necessity to hang around and level-grind for long periods of time so the game keeps moving at a really nice pace. There are difficulty levels and it looks like you can change it anytime during the game. Right now I've kept it at the default normal level.

Oh yeah it's better then Symphonia. I've played a few Tales games and ToS was the last one I played. Right now so far I would say this is the best in the series. Every aspect of the game is well done and run together quite smoothly together without any one thing that sticks out in a bad way.

Once we have a forum we can finish this discussion about standarization. Punk you better come with a good opening explaining your vision.

Fragile looks awesome, man I liked this game since the day it was announced.

Archie is visiting us more frequently, good. Come to the lightside!

And Yoda working on the new site.

All is well at Insert Coin.

First and foremost wowzers at teh hotness that is Maria Ozawa.

Secondly I only played Tales of Vesperia over the weekend. Currently at around the 20 hour mark and man is this game ever great. Really good story and cast of characters and none of them have been annoying. I'm really enjoying the battle system which seems tighter then usual and some new additions such as Fatal Strikes and Fatal Strike Chains are quite cool. I have yet to take control of other party members to try out all their moves and stuff as I'm still really just playing around with the main character's setlist and controls. The AI seems to be doing a good job controling my teammates. Setting up various different skills in conjunction with performing different artes to learn new moves is quite deep and really offers a lot to play with. Also the soundtrack is excellent and makes me wish I had picked up the Collector's Edition that came packed with a soundtrack cd which was only $10 more. The game simply looks gorgeous to boot.

Does the game have a world map? What's it like? How does it work?

Is it better than Symphonia?

Oh yeah it's better then Symphonia. I've played a few Tales games and ToS was the last one I played. Right now so far I would say this is the best in the series. Every aspect of the game is well done and run together quite smoothly together without any one thing that sticks out in a bad way.

Its in my Gamefly Q, so I'll be checking it out in the next few weeks. Sounds good.

Waiting for my new sig....

LOL What the fuck? I'm really sorry, man, I've been neck deep in work, and I still have to reinstall Photoshop. I promise i'll get to work on it as soon as possible. If I don't deliver, you'll get a FREE blowjob from GG. How does that sound?

Holy SHIT those fragile screens look wonderful. Artstyle reminds me of Eternal Sonata. Hey, maybe now I can pick up Eternal Sonata, it must be cheaper. At any rate, thanks, man. I'm definitely picking this one up.

Iga, your updates are so dreamy! Thank you thank you thank you! *heart*

I missed the last part of the past week, so I dunno if anyone noticed my Baten Kaitos issue. I've been working my ass off these past few days, but tomorrow night I'll jump back into it. Any advice that can make the card based battle system less alien for me?

Is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles any good? Saw it a couple days ago. I'm getting more GameCube games lately than Wii360 ones.

Not unless you have 3 friend each with a GBA and a time to play with you through the whole adventure. Do you have Paper Mario: Thousand Years Door?

Crap. Waitaminute, GBA?

No. Is it good? Will it make me stop saying: "Fuck platformers"?
