Fans of the beta version of Tales of Vesperia have been howling with rage at the release of the PS3 final version, which now seems to border on a remake.
The changes between the two are even more substantial than previously thought, making this an essential title for RPG fans:
Loli pirate Patty Fleur has been added, and integrated into the story, movies and event scenes.
Flynn can be added to the party more frequently, and take the top slot and change skills.
The entire scenario is now fully voiced.
A large number of new skits have been added, apparently bringing the total to twice what was in the beta version.
With two new characters added the story has been adjusted.
Event camera work has been adjusted.
Event scenes can now be skipped.
Three new dungeons have been added along with an additional above ground area.
New bosses and giant monsters have been added.
New missions, events, secret missions and submissions are confirmed.
Party AI has been enhanced.
New ougi for each character have been added.
OVL gauge can now extend to 5 with unknown effects.
New skills have been added.
A total of 26 new attacks for the various characters have been added.
Arena party battles have been added.
Attack sounds are enhanced.
New items have been added.
Namco Island has more features.
Smaller gameplay changes too numerous to mention are also added.
New, sexier costumes have been added:
There is only one month remaining until the game’s PS3 debut; whether this will sell PS3s as the beta sold Xboxes remains to be seen, but with the new PS3 models in the wings it seems possible.
The only possible detraction is the issue of the game’s resolution…

This seems worth buying our own PS3s for, or at least a backwards compatible PS4 when it comes out.
Gotta love Rita’s face at the end. -w-
The only reason the 360 has more sales is simply because the console was rushed to get it released a full year before the ps3 in america and 2 years before ps3 in europe. The PS3 has proven to be selling a lot more consoles monthly than the 360, the only place 360 gets more is in america but that is only a small portion of the world, so it’s only a matter of time untill the PS3 overtakes the 360 in total sales.
I would buy the PS3 version but ive already bought the 360 version when it launched, I want the new content but I dont want to buy thier game for 70 bucks all over again. Maybe I should wait till its bargain binned or used? I mean why should I continue to actively support a company that is willing to screw me over like this.
Lol you weaboos need to stop loving the PS3 just because its japanese. I bet atleast some of your grandads died in ww2 fighting the japs.
