Tales of Xillia 2 is a love letter to fans of the original, mixing up old characters and systems with some new ideas.

  • +Returning to a familiar world
  • +Great cast
  • +Fun, deep combat
  • +New side quest systems

  • –Tons of reused assets

Yet another game to add to your PS3 backlog. Still have to beat the first one.

Anyways I said as much as I love the Tales series, I just can't see spending $60 on a PS3 game not named Persona 5. I know the price will drop fast enough to wait a bit.

Still playing the first one, but making good progress. Since Xillia 2 is apparently so similar I might play something else before tackling it. I'm also wasting my money and getting the limited edition. Yeehaw.

Symphonia was a fantastic game. I think if I had to make a top 3 Tales of list it would go Abyss, Symphonia, and then Graces.

Yea its a great game. Though i feel its sequel gets way to much hate. While its not better then part 1 I still found it fun experience. On topic I have the LE for xillia 2. I really enjoyed the first so cant wait for the second one.

Never played Dawn of the New World, i heard is pretty average and nowhere near as good as Symphonia, but this might be a good chance to find out.

Just looked at a video of the battle system... AI controlled hack and slash looks not fun.

@edwardecl: I'm playing the original now and it's not bad. You control your character and then you can program your partners to follow a certain strategy
