Tales Series
Throwback Bit Thursday: Tales of Legendia
The Tales series, against all odds, remains one of the few long running J-RPG series still standing tall on home consoles. With 17 main entries, some titles will receive more of a spotlight than others. One title that is not often talked about when discussing the series is the PS2’s Tales of Legendia. Personally, Legendia… Continue reading Throwback Bit Thursday: Tales of Legendia
Tales of Arise Finally Comes September 2021

Throwback Bit Thursday: Tales of Symphonia
Tales of Symphonia, was a much a needed gift from the RPG gods on Nintendo’s Gamecube back in 2003. Nintendo’s console was somewhat devoid of traditional Japanese RPGs, as Sony’s PlayStation 2 had inherited the genre’s top titles from its forbearer. Namco’s fantastic fifth entry in the series would quench the JRPG thirst for Gamecube… Continue reading Throwback Bit Thursday: Tales of Symphonia
Tales of Vesperia (XBOX360) Review
MAYBE THE GREATEST J-RPG TODAY! I have played the Tales Series for about three entries, Symphonia, Legendia and now the 10th installment (in Japan) 2008’s Vesperia.

Tales of Symphonia (GC) Review
Namco’s 2003 Tales of Symphonia is along with Sega’s Skies of Arcadia, the only J-RPG star in the dry RPG dessert that it is the Game Cube’s landscape. The long running Tales series carries a lot of prestige with it, so it is my pleasure to say that Tales of Symphonia does not disappoint and… Continue reading Tales of Symphonia (GC) Review
Tales of Legendia (PS2) Review
As readers of this website know, I am a firm believer that the Golden Era of Traditional RPGs occurred during the 32-bit epoch, a time that saw the release of many good titles that even today two generations later, can be enjoyed and appreciated by faithful hardcore RPG maniacs and new comers to the genre… Continue reading Tales of Legendia (PS2) Review
Tales of Graces F (PS3) Review
Absence makes the heart grow fonder…a wise saying if anything, that saying can explain the joy I felt throughout the long journey that I undertook as I played through 2009’s Tales of Graces F. Console J-RPGs have been a rare breed in the late ps3 to ps4 transition, rising costs and the rise of high… Continue reading Tales of Graces F (PS3) Review
