Tales series love

[Xicrog]

And now, I talk about the most underrated video game series of all time. I love Tales so much right now. I love it so much I mutilated my PS2 so it would play JP-only releases so I could play Tales of Rebirth in a language I barely understand.
I mean, what other series do you get the chance to play as an androgynous ninja raised by talking river otters, or a mild-mannered priestess who fights with explosives and a talking sword? They pick the most random occupations for the playable characters, too. Like factory worker, natural historian, fugitive/CEO, fortune teller, marine, schoolteacher...the list goes on and on. And what other game would random townspeople burst out into song and dance at the slightest provocation? So random. And so awesome.
...have I converted anyone to Tales-ism yet?

ha ha i agree with that, though i didn't mutilate my ps2.. i use magic swap ;D

ha ha random singing like in the ToD remake! stahn randomly burst out into song after hearing johhny sing. that made the whole room go silent then everyone cracked up xD

what everyone fav tales game? (for those that play them anyway >.>)

mine ToP.. then ToR.... yeah...

[Xicrog]

Well, the random singing I was talking about was actually in TOL.

Thoooossseee who break the rules
Get to feeeeeelll
The iron-hammer-of-justice
And hear its thunderous peal

Now, I want to play TOD remake so bad...singing Stahn FTW. I'm infatuated with TOR right now, but I really liked Legendia. Though Abyss is awesome, too. OMG, too many good games!

[wind21]

ToL was okay, but ToR is waay better, as is ToP: FVE(full voice edition)

but i remeber those singing poeple in ToR, they were singing/ yelling at senel weren't they?

the ToD remake looks awesome but sadley i havn;t played it yet, my sis won't let anyone touch it.. >.>

[Xicrog]

Yes~ The Bantam Bouncers. Whose names make no sense whatsoever. It was even funnier the second time around when the Oresoren joined in. I was laughing my head off. And the main reason why I like Legendia is not the gameplay but the characters.

I think my next Tales purchase is going to be the TOD2 port. I'm hoping to get a PSP for my birthday, which means I can also get the Eternia port too. *hope*

[wind21]

yeah.. at the next anime convention i got (anime boston 07 whoot!) I plan on getting ToT, or ToD2, or possibly ToE for the psp since ToE is so awesome, and i can't play it currently since I let my friends borrow it..

and more sadness.. i can;t find my copy of ToA!!! *wonders if i let someone borrow it*

[Xicrog]

I used to have Tales of Eternia for PS, it got me into the Tales series. But I lost it a while ago. Which is why I want it on PSP. Ooh, get TOD2, TOT is supposed to be not all that good. And TOD2 has Judas XD. I sound like Gyppy.

[wind21]

ah ok then i'll think twice about getting ToT

and who cares if you sound like Gyppy! Judas is one of the best characters, he's just so cool, it's not like you should be ashamed for thinking he's cool.

[Xicrog]

Yes, Judas is teh rawk. He tends to get a bad rap from fanboys who are jealous of his popularity among female fans, IMO.

NOTE: Gyppy is a member of the Tales of forum who is infamous for her love of the character Judas, who I believe I have referenced in the past here.

[wind21]

xD thats funny


yeah i know who Gyppy is. she's fun to talk to =3

[Xicrog]

Yeah, I know. But Zylaa, Katanal, and Kit don't.

[wind21]

ahh ok, srry bout that.

[Xicrog]

No worries. And so this post isn't totally pointless, Tytree is so cool. I love his fighting style and personality.

[wind21]

yeah and his voice actor is the best. yay for kappei!! his voice is so unique and funny.

[Xicrog]

I remember getting a win-quote once where he started mimicing Annie's voice. I had no idea what he was saying because my Japanese is terrible, but the way he said it was hilarious.

Tytree could read the phone book and still make it sound funny.
