Tales of Graces f

The Tales series is one that I've always wanted to admire... but no, I had to be born, raised and living in the wrong country to actually experience these games. I'm not sure if Namco has no faith in the Tales series selling well in Australia or in general, because in Australia, we only have Tales Of Symphonia and Tales Of Vesperia available. In fact, had it not been for the fact that the PS3 is region free, I would never experience Tales Of Graces F, and although I would definitely say that Symphonia and Vesperia are better games, Graces F is still a good game that is well worth your time.

It starts off with Asbel, heir to the lord of the city Lhant, his brother Hubert, and their sickly friend Cheria finding an amnesiac girl by the name of Sophie. They also meet up with prince Richard, despite Asbel's father telling him not to go anywhere near him, which has him basically tell Asbel that he's a reckless little terror who doesn't think about the consequences. Naturally shrugging it o...

THE GOOD:

• Strong Cast of Characters
• Improved Skit System from the rest of the series
• Well-Rounded Battle System
  • Title System and two battle styles for each character
• Beautiful Art Style
  • Features anime videos and CG-style cutscenes
• Incredibly expansive in terms of material
• Great customization for characters and equipment

THE BAD:
None. This game really is perfect! It's very well-rounded in terms of battle system, content and gameplay. Any RPG or Action-Adventure fan will enjoy this game.

SUMMARY:
Tales of Graces F is the first installment in the Tales series to be released on the PS3 outside of Japan. As such, many people are a little unsure of what to do - buy the game or skip over it. I can honestly say that you won't regret buying the game, and here are some reasons why:


A new feature in this game is something called the Dynamic Skit System. While the skits in the Tales series have always been fun to listen to, they really haven't been that entertaining visually. However, with the inc...

THE GOOD:
- Great storyline.
- Great character development.
- Great graphics.
- Great music.
- Great and improved gameplay, in and out of battles.
- Lots of surprises and easter eggs.

THE BAD:
- Despite the great graphics, the game doesn't run at a full 1080p resolution.
- Sidequests are essential to get a better understanding of the characters. They are not needed, but it's not ideal for the casual gamer looking for a great storyline without having to play much.

SUMMARY:
Another GREAT Tales game! Namco-Bandai return to deliver us a great game with a different yet touching storyline and deep characters. After Vesperia's poor effort in delivering a beautiful storyline, Tales of Graces F has saved the Tales Of series with it's epic storyline. Although the theme of the game is simplistic, don't expect any less! The creators did a great job to ensure the topic in hand is something that affects us in many ways, so don't expect to be disappointed after playing it.

The story of the game is beautiful. ...

SUMMARY:
I have been a Tales fan ever since I put my hands on Tales of Symphonia. The majestic story, character, and battle system are passed by none in this genre besides Final Fantasy. But it has been a long time since I have been able to get my hands on one, until now.
