May 11, 2012Tales of Vesperia is a diamond in the barren wasteland that is the 360 JRPG library. It has a lovely look, great voice acting and extremly fun gameplay. It's a long grind to complete but well worth it. I'd recommend this game to anyone looking for a challenge without sacrificing quality.

Nov 30, 2011This was the last Great JRPG on the HD generation of consoles, too bad critics were blind at the time and liked to hate on JRPGS...now they all are saying they wanted them back...well their faulkt for neatpicking
Tales of Vesperia is a great RPG whit nice characters and storyteling, fast paced battle system, a huge world to explore....man I wish there was more games like those!! -
Oct 29, 2013It was a true pleasure to experience this one, story and battle system are a amazing. The Characters are likable, but the main character stands out. This is an instant classic and it is deserving of a sequel. The side-quests were not really a strength and I felt they were scarce, but this really is another masterpiece and should not be missed by true RPG gamers.

Nov 30, 2010A wonderful game. Great soundtrack, captivating story and characters well developed. The gameplay is quite engaging. I would like to see Tales of Grace on the Xbox too, or maybe a continuation of Tales of Vesperia.

CollinL.Sep 19, 2008This is the best tale game in the series with a perfected game mechanic and a exciting story filled with conspiracies and plot twists. Fun from the start to finish but with exception of a few frustrating boss fights.

NohmadTSep 23, 2009Obviously this game is not for everyone, no game is. If you're a fan of RPG's, I'd suggest giving this a go. I enjoyed this game even more than I did FFVII. So the score I'm giving is based on my experience of enjoyability. 130 Hours in and it still keeps me hooked.

Aug 6, 2013Not bad.Story is standart, graphics looks good. But combat and character development is little boring. And totally horrible thing is, if you want see all things in game, you cant play without guide. 50% game is missable. I know, lot a JRPG have missable things, but here, hmm..crazy.I hate use guides, and dont want play same game 4 or 6 times for see everything..NO!
