As I recall some members are familiar with the Tales of series. So for once i felt like trying it out. I pre-ordered a copy of Tales of Graces f but I'm not quite sure what the f part of the name stands for.
Regardless I love JRPGs in general. I'me actually quite excited about this. Hope it lives up to the niche hype, would be nice to see a good advertisement but I know thats not gonna happen. Go niche games! GO!!!

Tales of Grace was released on the Wii, time passed and Namco released it on the PS3 with the f on it and some extra content. I hope we get atleast half the DLC japan has, they've got Code Geass costumes for the characters.
I personally love the Tales series, to me it's a system seller. When it came out on the PSP here I bought one just for it(it's a damn shame we didn't get the 2 seqauls) and same goes for the 360 and ps3.

So like... I heard you were picking up this game... What is your preferred retailer? Truthfully if it wasn't for the extra $20 giftcard and the DLC bonus I would have gotten Tales of Graces f from somewhere else.

I normally buy my games months in advance from gamestop. I like to walk in and walk out with game in hand. Where are you getting it from?
I missed the part where you said that. I was not informed about the 20 giftcard.

Ah, the walmart I work at isn't even selling the game. I would have been pissed if I planned on picking it up here.

I hope we get atleast half the DLC japan has, they've got Code Geass costumes for the characters. "Some extra content"? Psshhh. Wii users literally got shafted. As far as I'm aware, Graces F has not only extra content in the form of MOAR DUNGEONS, but actually has plot that goes on after the main story of the original. And it seems to be 2/3 as long, at the very least, not to mention fixing NUMEROUS bugs the original had(hell, you couldn't even play New Game+ in the Wii version because it'd bug out at some point and wouldn't let you go on with the story). That aside, Graces(and therefore Graces F) seems to have one of the best battle systems in the series(which is saying something), being at the top right alongside Tales of Destiny remake(PS2). Looking forward to playing it, really.

I would be very disapointed in a tales game if 10 extra hours of content is a 2/3rds of the game. But at any rate they always port a tales of game to another system and throw in more content. Hell a large part of the tales fanbays is still whining for the vesperia ps3 port to come to the US. I'm just happy getting a new tales game(still wish radiant mytholdgys 2 and 3 were localized)
I don't like the opening, which is a first for me and a tales game.

Remember this, you're not putting it in a 360. There's always the chance it freesbee your game...
