I havent heard of Tales of Rebirth, whats it like? Just finished modding my ps2 Im looking for good games to put on the HDD lol

 

[retronerdgamer]

Oh nice, though is there any news on PSP? I'd probably play that more.

 

[owari_da]

Awesome, Life Bottle is the best! Now I am wondering what'll be next.

It's wild how many tales games are still untranslated and them's bandai namco don't want to touch any of them still. Still good news on new translation, cheers!

I don't know, I haven't played it lol. But I have heard that it's pretty good, and the story is especially good for a Tales game.

No news that I know of for the PSP version, that one is being handled by a different team.

I agree, cheers! But it's actually really cool how few are untranslated nowadays. At this point it's just Rebirth and Destiny 2 that don't have a released translation, for the bigger Tales games. There is of course random spin-off games like the Naikiri Dungeon games, and the billionth remake of Phantasia for PSP

It's just crazy that so many of them have released or are releasing soon. I remember when they were just complete pipe-dreams to be able to play in English.

this is a very exciting time to be a tales fan, and especially since Vita emulation actually works

and namco just wanna remaster tales of graces... i like it but it doesn't NEED A REMASTER, i would've like them to get an english tales of destiny 2 or whatever else hasn't been english released.
and i love how the only official english release of phantasia is on gameboy advance (and vastly inferior to the SNES version anyways), i'd love to play the newest phantasia version in full english someday...

I somewhat disagree, Tales of Graces F being locked to the PS3 was very annoying. I'm moderately happy that they're finally releasing it to other platforms, especially PC. Now give us Xillia 1 and 2.

What I'm really annoyed about is that it took them freaking five years to port another Tales game after Vesperia, after all Bamco's talk about how well that remaster did and how they plan to remaster more.

No, Symphonia doesn't count, that was a train wreck.

Thanks for the reminder! I remember being excited for it a couple years back and I totally forgot about it. This has been a great year for fan translations

 

[Fred Card]

Just great! ☺

So happy Graces F is getting on Switch, now do Xillia 1/2, cowards. Maybe something we haven't gotten in English.

Also what makes Symphonia a train wreck with the new release? Had a blast, it's such a good game.

 

[kaharg]

dammit another to add to the backlog. also thanks guys for the great work

Well, outside of the usual complaints about any Post-PS3 version of Symphonia, primarily no 60 FPS like the original GCN version, the most recent port, especially Switch, was pretty poorly handled on release.

Tons of graphical issues, the upscaling they did for the remaster was extremely lazy with tons of the textures now looking like garbled messes, a blindingly white screen pop-up before each battle instead of the old iconic glass break effect, and even some crashes. I have heard that the majority of these port specific issues have been mostly fixed in updates.

It was very second-hand embarrassing to see, especially when the PC version was fine, which the modern port is based on.

Kuuuuuuuureeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

 

[marxcore]

I'm so stoked for the launch of this translation

 

[RageBurner]

Not only that, they are tackling Nakiriri X and Phantasia X eventually. Can't wait.

 

[ScottKMgmt]

Its halfway through the month. Any update on release date?

 

[RageBurner]

Not yet as far as I know. If I had to guess, it will come on or near the 25th.

 

[retroiretronfo3]

[RageBurner]

where is the game ?

It's not out yet.

 

[CoolCatBad]

I guess it's supposed to come out today? Literally any time now. Idk tho, I just saw that on some comments in a youtube video Life Bottle Productions was on.
