Unlike Star Ocean 3 – which tests the boundaries of hardcore, because of its complex battle and item making systems -Tales of Symphonia keeps things simple. One of those reasons is the easy to pick up gameplay. Not only that, but I would say that it is even money with Star Ocean 3 in terms of quality and depending on how long you have been playing RPGs, you might actually see Symphonia as the superior game of the two for a few reasons. However, used Gamecubes are a dime a dozen these days, and Tales of Symphonia is a far better (and bigger) game than Radiata Stories. Unfortunately, the game plays too much like Radiata Stories and Star Ocean 3 for PS2 owners to venture into GameCube waters. While this might sound bad for a system that only has two or three good traditional RPGs, in close inspection you will see that the reason this game is not the best in the system is because it has the misfortune of competing with Skies of Arcadia.
Tales of symphonia colette video game series#
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 lives up to the reputation of quality that the series has been known for.īut is it the best RPG on the ‘Cube? Is it worth buying a ‘Cube if only to play this game? The answers to those questions are no, and not necessarily. 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.
