Pros:
-Cute graphics that suits the game's mood
-Awesome soundtrack(It's a nice blend of Jazz, and has nice chourses in some stages)
-Excellent voice acting
-Rapid fight style gameplay
-Great story(And a ending that might be a bit emotional for some, like me)
-I love the cheerful comedy this game brings(If you just played a horror game, it's never a bad idea to turn to this to cheer you up
-It said 70 hours, and man this was the clostest that any game has close to being right about it's lenght on the back cover(I was only 15 minutes over 70 hours)
-Very nice animated ciniematics(It provides much more than the 2 Tales of Symphonia had)
-Excellent group of characters:
--Senel:The main man who walks around with the strenght of 100 men. He can be a pain sometimes. (Like when he abandoned his party, and felt like a total @$$ later)
--Will:The 28 year old man, who uses a hammer, but uses to much magic.(What is the point of having a hammer that can crush a cinderblock at ease if you're hardly gonna use it)
--Chloe:The knight with a generation of greatness before her, but she has loads of doubt and revenge in her(At one point it will, and I mean WILL piss you off)
--Norma:Where would this game be without the cheerful, bubbleheaded Norma. She brings loads of comedy, keeps the game from being completly boirng, well she's like Ed from Cowboy Bebop.
--Moses:And no he's not the guy who said let my people go. He's kinda like Zelos, and he's a bit of a goofball, and he provides comedy as well.
--Jay:I swear the first time I saw this dude I thought he was a chick. She-male lookin' sunova... Anyway, he's the least likable for me, because he always acts like he's too good for everyone.
--Grune:Ah, other than the fact that she lost her memory, she reminds me of Sheena, super sexy, fights with a weird weapon, has a relationship with summon spirits, the perfect woman, a Goddess(Seriously, and she's generaly rather nice to Moses, unlike Sheena and Zelos' relationship)
--Shirly:Senel's sister, and he cares for her a lot, but yet, she always seems to find a way to be a complete burden for like 2 of the game, but she's usually sweet.
-Gald is hardly a problem(The fact that you usually have more than you can spend from time to time)
-Skits have voice acting(Which is suprising since it wasn't that way in tales of symphonia
-Nice load of extras after the game was completed
-This game is a ton of fun, and is very enjoyable installment of the tales series.
Cons:
-No multiheal items(Only Norma can heal everyone, but it's not always enough)
-No Voice acting through Character quest.(Throughout the final 35 hours the only way you can hear voice acting is through the animated FMVs or skits. I missed the voice acting so much, I almost forgot what the voices for some characters sounded like)
-No summon spirits used(Their names are mentioned but they're never used. What happedned there)
-I hate random battles(The dungeons are wayyy to long and random battles are a bit frequent. I don't know what was wrong with the Tales of Symphonia system)
-The world map sucks! The paths are not far away, but Senel runs way too dang slow!(Not to mention there's nothing of an airship or anything like that)
-Puzzle booths are annoying(The only good thing I found about it, is you don't get into random battles with them.
-During character quest this game suffers from Magna Carta syndrome where you backtrack through previous dungeouns(Dungeouns I thought I'd never have to see again. They could have gave a quick jump like Tales of Symphonia did.)
-I wish you could cook after that battle and eat, and get a limited status raiser like in Tales of Symphonia(But, you gotta wait till after the battle.)
-No alternative endings(That is a real downer, seeing as how it is very common in RPGs today)
Tales of Lengendia is a great fun experience, but in pails in comparision to it's Gamecube predicessor Tales of Symphonia. This game looks like it was the prediseccor, and Tales of Symphonia was the successor. Seriously this game was inferior to it. Yet this game is enjoyable, and PS2 owners that never played the Gamecube success, nor had a international PS2 to play the japanese version(Which was realesed on PS2 there, and had much more extras than the gamecube version, and a casino, which was messed up), should enjoy this Tales experience, altho I played better.
peace
