Got Tales this morning. Coldest game I've ever got (erm.... yeah).

But it seems good. At first the combat seemed a bit crappy, just a shallow PSO-type system, but now it's starting to get good. Only played it for half an hour, but I can see it getting very good in a few hours (of play, not just time).

Oh, and It's published by Nintendo. Something I didn't know. And it's got two discs.

Now, how in gods name am I going to get the time to play this, Metroid Prime 2, Paper Mario 2, Halo 2 and still leave my social life intact?

Sheet.

Got it today.

Tis good, I love games like this, but the intro has been a little slow.

And for some reason, I hanker for turn-based rather than this excellent combat system.

Otherwise, it's everything a great Jap RPG should be.

There is a place that you can go and fight a particular creature over and over again for 10,000 gold a time, but I'm not sure you can go there or are ready to yet.

yeah i think that is the only way to get all of them, but trust me you will have to be level 85 or so to finish ALL of the main subquests, mwhahahahhahaha!
Yeah I got to level 87 by the end of my second game as I too used an FAQ for side quests and man there are some tough battles ahead. Have you gotten all of the summons? Like Maxwell?

6th form is being a right pain for me. Some one needs to tell my Maths and History teachers they need to leave us time for some social every now and then, rather than loadsa homework!

I have an idea on what you can't do to get that Statue, when you go to the volcano there is a cutscene, but i suppose you might not get that to come up until after the ranch. Anyway I haven't played it in a long while but i still rmember the plots and most of the story that happens, but i have forgotten most of the city names as there are a lot of them.
