Forums - Gaming Discussion - Question: Which Tales games are worth getting?

Tagged games:

So of the Tales series, I've only played Tales of Symphonia on GC and Symphonia2 on Wii (Barf..)

Really wanted to try the other entrys in the series but after the horrors of Symphonia 2, I'm a bit cautious.

So in your personal experience, which Tales games are the ones to get?

Vesperia is a must have.

Graces ƒ has a good combat system, but the story and characters aren't that good. 

Abyss starts off badly, but improves upon time.



I loved Tales Of Symphonia

I played Tales Of The Abyss but i think i'm the only person on this planet who didn't like it

I played Vesperia and i can tell that i would love it just as much as i loved Symphonia

Graces was cool

so right now i would tell you to go after Vesperia if you can find it



Tales of Vesperia is the only one I have played extensively (close to beating it) so its the only one I can really recommend you can get it on amazon new for $24.99 at the moment which is a pretty good price a bit more then what I paid for it over two years ago (amazon also) but still a very good deal.



I think Abyss was great. I almost enjoyed it as much as Vesperia.

I played both Symphonia games, don't care for them. I hated Legendia.

I own Graces on PS3, played some, seems okay... have to play more before I can really judge it.

So glad you made this thread because earlier today in fact I decided i'd like to try the series, but I didn't know where to begin :P



i have so far only play two tales games which are graces f on the PS3 and vesperia on the 360 they are both great games but if you have to go with one i say graces f mainly because i think it has the better combat and characters but i have some great things about abyss for the PS2 and 3DS



Why didn't you like TOS2 I personally thought it was an awesome game lol.



Xillia 2 > Vesperia > Xillia > Graces (f) > Symphonia > Abyss > Hearts

If you want to go old school Phantasia and Destiny.
