quote TenshiI managed to find Vesperia (2008) in Summer / Fall of 2010. But I had to call 3 different Gamestops. It wasn't THAT hard, but thankfully I didn't have to resort to online like Amazon.
In those cases, you get crap like, $40 Used, $8,740 New.
I don't remember when I got Vesperia,it was Christmas I know that...I think it was like 2008 or 2009. When I opened it up Christmas morning,I found that the disc wasn't in the case,it was the last copy that gamestop had,so they took the disc out of the box so the box could be on display. The idiot working there at the time didn't put the disc in when my parents bought it,and that wasn't even the only time it had happened as I found out. The guy had even left the store unlocked one time when he was supposed to lock up! Not a very good employee,huh? Vesperia was one of only like 2 things I had gotten for Christmas that year even....
quote VermillionThere's also one glitch that can't be done solely because it's on the 3DS. The world map glitch that required you to remove the disc and close the PS2,allowing you to move anywhere on the world map,which even allows you to finish the game with Asch instead of Luke. Although finishing the game with Asch screws things up if you start New game+ with him,it causes the game to crash when you get to the battle tutorial or something.Bad thing about the 3DS Version is that they patched a couple of interesting glitches you could exploit.

Wolverine527 Yeah that's the cheat I had in mind when I said that haha. Didn't know it crashed your game though.
There were also some changes, like you can't abuse Jade when you get him the first time. In the PS2 version it was a nice chance to level up some characters since your characters are in like level 10 and Jade is like 34 at that time.

It only crashes when you start New game+,everything works fine until NG+,though it might feel a little odd still having Luke appear in the cutscenes even though he's not in the party.
But of course,Asch is technically inferior to Luke,since every time he joins your party his Capacity Core bonuses reset.

Haha, I like the Tales of Friends keychains at the top The Pursuit. I actually have a Lloyd one (ToS) and Milla (ToX) They just kinda sit here on my desk and look cute.
I hate how you can't find the Tales games easily after awhile. I payed 54 for Eternia and 56 for Destiny last year. I also payed 104.00 for Vesperia Special Edition. Those three are the most expensive localized ones.
Are you sure you're seeing localized copies of Tales of Fandom? Because that was never localized. Vol. 1 or 2. I'm positive about that.

Tenshi Not really that I don't like handhelds, I just never really have the chance to play them as much as consoles (yeah, hearing that, it doesn't really make much sense...) I don't own a 3DS either, so I just thought it'd be easier to get it on the PS2. If the 3DS version is better, though, I guess I'll have to give it a go instead when I get some money.
The Masterman Aww darnit, I thought I found something cool there...
Thanks for the update, though, just kept me from buying something I couldn't even use!

Abyss Raider yeah but buying things you can't use is fun! xD Like my awesome 40 dollar purchase of Tales of Innocence lol.

I've been trying to find a copy of Eternia and Destiny for a few years...I know I could get them online,but there are a couple of local stores that would probably sell them for less than they'd go for online...They just haven't come by a copy of either game

I think I did really well on my big EOC. At most, I missed one question.
I'm 100% positive of that. I'm really excited to see how it goes when we get our results. I may be able to get exempt from exams if we get this test back quickly enough...which I'm sure we won't, but it's worth dreaming about!

Say, how's the FPS for Abyss 3DS? I think I heard somewhere that it was lower than the original, but I'm not sure. That's pretty much the main thing keeping me from getting it right now, since my PS2/game isn't exactly on hand right now.[/div]

Yeah, I heard it was a bit lower. It's nothing to scoff at for a handheld game, I'm sure, but it's not like the PS2 version. It just loads quicker.

So have you guys been? The forum seems to have been relatively dead for the past few days. Compared to before at least. You guys out of school yet? I've still got a month and a ton of projects and essays to write this weekend. All thanks to the 4th quarter I suppose.
Oh yeah, and I bought Tales of Rebirth PS2 so I have that too now!

The Masterman Yeah I've noticed that, too, not as many people posting. I've been hanging out around the Xenoblade forums trying to help get the wiki up and running, but I try to jump over here and check when I can.

Well, I've already been on Summer Break for the last 5 days. I think I mentioned it, already.
I've played about 20 or more hours of Tales since then. But I think there's just not much left to talk about. Most of us here have beaten the game, or simply don't really have questions about it. So all the general Q&A threads are useless / never get created to begin with. Otherwise, the only thing to do is talk in the GD or post in Hangman.
