The editors didn't like
Cutesy anime style is not for everyone
Same-y plot resembles ancients like Final Fantasy VII.

Complex battle system is unnecessary since button mashing works so well
Abstract: On today's Gaming with Killatia we take a look at our next tales games Tales Of Veserpia and see if its a must have game for the Xbox 360.A friend of mine, Cam's Eye View, also did a review of Tales of Vesperia so if you want a second opinion check it out...
Tales of Vesperia doesn’t offer a whole lot that hasn’t been seen before. It’s not exactly ground-breaking, it’s not revolutionary, and it won’t seem like anything radically different than a standard JRPG. But funnily enough, it is. Where the game shi...

Tales of Vesperia is without a doubt my favorite Tales title to date. It has a great story, memorable characters and more stuff to do that I can shake a sword at. 10 years is a long time for a series to survive in this ever changing industry, but someh...
Abstract: If the Xbox 360 wasn’t already firmly established as the RPG system of this generation, it definitely should be now. Tales of Vesperia is yet another great JRPG that is only available on the 360. It looks good, sounds phenomenal, tells a decent story, ...
Abstract: The Japanese RPG never ceases to astound me. It is a nearly untouched genre, steeped firmly in tradition. It beckons players to grind for experience senselessly for hours on end with an overly simplified battle system. It entertains with the same arch...
Abstract: If anything, Tales of Vesperia is one deep and enchanting role-playing game that manages to weave a good story and keep you hooked from start to finish. It certainly isn’t a revolutionary RPG but with a wonderful cast of characters and a good story, it...
