You seem to have stumbled across my Tales Updates, whether you meant to or not. Here, I give info on Namco-Bandai's Tales of RPG series, known for its real time battle system (the LMBS) and its animated cut scenes made by Production I.G. It all started on December 15, 1995 when Wolf Team's Tales of Phantasia was released for the Super Famicom in Japan. (Members of Wolf Team later broke off and made Star Ocean, but that's another story for another time.) With the development of the series' fifth game, Tales of Symphonia, Tales gained its own studio dedicated solely to making new games in the series.

ToG Dramatic DVD and Special Pack Art

The art for the box of the Tales of Graces Special Pack has been revealed. (I'd still rather have a different color Wii than white for it but...whatever.)

The art for the Dramatic DVD, "Tales of Graces Dramatic DVD ~Otona ni naritai? Hen~" has also been revealed.

Oh, and on another subject, the Tales of Vesperia PS3 site updated its System page with the school costume DLC. You might notice they're 300 yen apiece (totaling 2,700 yen altogether if you get all of them...that's almost $30 USD for some costumes!).

ToG Site Update-Character Videos, ToV and To-VS slight update

The Tales of Graces site updated its Character section with three videos. One for Asbel, one for Richard, and one for Malik. It says there are more coming soon, so I'll be on the lookout for those.

Oh, and in other news, the Tales of Vesperia PS3 site finally put up its Story section which I must've missed. There are four tabs: World (talks about Terca Lumireis), Story (basic background story), Screen Shots (self explanatory), and Animation Movie (three anime screens that include Patty).

Also, the Movie section of the Tales of VS. site has updated with a Hamidashi section with all the videos from the Hamidashi Corner, including a new omake video of Leon and Farah.

ToV PS3 Special Update-Another New Wallpaper

The Tales of Vesperia PlayStation 3 version site updated its Special section with another wallpaper (it also made a late update to its System page with downloads up through October 1...the Story page still isn't up for who knows what reason). So anyway, the new wallpaper is basically made up of the pictures from the reverse side of the game cover (as seen in this post in my other world).

ToV PS3 Special Update-New Wallpaper

And yet the Story section is still unopened. *coughs* Seriously, the site has the same layout as the 360 version's site. Just put the same thing you did for the 360 version and you're done.
So the Special section of the Tales of Vesperia PS3 version site has a new Patty wallpaper up. The background of it is different from the character wallpapers on the 360 version's site, but that's not really important.

ToV Site Update-Special Section

So tempted to type SPECAL thanks to the misspelling on the Tales of VS. site, but yeah...the PS3 version of Tales of Vesperia's site now has its Special section open. It has four subsections in it: Theme Song (which has a bit of info on Bonnie Pink and Kane wo Narashite, nothing new since it's the same song from the first version of the game and the upcoming movie), the Developers' Blog which has been around since before the 360 version, a Download section with a wallpaper which I put direct links to below, and a link to the movie site.
