There is also a Tales of Symphonia anime coming in 2007.

ToD2j for the psp? AHhhhhh, If it somehow makes it over with the TOD remake ill be shocked.

But, i dont want to buy a psp for one game.. How come they just couldnt release it for the PS2? *shakes fist at namco*

Wow, the Tales of Destiny remake has some quality sprite artwork. I really hope at least that one makes it stateside after seeing some of those screenshots.

And are the anime scenes something new for ToP, or were they added as part of the PS1 version?

The Playstation pseudo-remake had cutscenes added to it, yes.

Hmmm... Lion now uses two swords, I guess Namco wanna be coherent so people won't question them about Judas' nitouryu in ToD2.

='D

This is such great news. I really liked Tales of Phantasia, but I never got the chance to play the other Tales games. Now I can though! Thanks for the news~~!

I am so going to get the remake. Heck~ That's going to rock. X3 Wonder what Sakuraba and Tamura will be doing with the old, over-pitched and very repetive OST. Just arrange or rewrite anew completely?

Will the Tales games never end? There have to be more Tales of games than FF now right?

No, unless you're counting the Tales' side games and not Final Fantasy's.

yeah no, not as much as final fantasy, but yeah there's a lot

but for me the tales of series is the only thing good coming out of namco...(xenosaga ep1 can be an exception, I'll see about epIII >.>)

Heeeeyyyy, Soul Calibur for the dreamcast was pretty awesome as far as fighting games go. Never did get into Soul Edge, or SC2 or 3, though.

A new video from Namco's press conference:

Basically the new E-LBS is gonna be an aerial combo blast based system, it's gonna be a whole new experience for combating enemies up in the sky... the "CC" circles in the status bar show the number of aerial combos each of your characters performs... and since you can link so many different skills together, I doubt the SP system will make a return here.

wow! just saw the video and god those battle seem so fun!! that was pretty cool!

the first remake to be release will be Tales of Phantasy on PSP for september 7 in Japan and the other's will follow this winter ^^

I hope they will get to North America!

Are they serious?
The Tales- franchise is almost getting worse than the Fifa/NHL/Madden franchise!

Some would say..The franchise ended with Eternia or Symphonia.. other than that.. Appreciate it for the game's music . Its worth alot =].

And many more would say Tales of Abyss is the best Tales game to date.

that's what I heard too, that's why I can't wait for chrismas to come XD

Holy macarena! x_x

O-M-G !!!! this look so fun!!! They must release this remake here! I so want it XD

really this look way better then the original , because I tried to play not so long ago and I gave up XD after playing Tales of Eternia and Tales of Symphonia it's really hard to return to the basis, you can't even do normal attack combo XD and the graphic even if they are nice, they look exactly like Tales of Phantasia on Snes >.< I didn't remember it that way XD still a really good game. I'll really enjoy this remake XD

I can't wait for this remake! Also I wonder if they'll make some extras and maybe use the save from ToD2 to get some extra itens.

Oh damn, I just watched some videos of that ToD remake and it looks sweet. Wish it came out here. I never played the original game. I loved ToS, and I've looking forward to the OAV!

This game will own all the other RPGs that come out in the same month, it's just... too good to describe with words. Those crazy combos you can do is far beyond my expectation, and the detailed 2D backgrounds that can be drawn in win my heart instantly. With full voice acting and the original storyline, this game will sure land a bomb before the end of the PS2 era...

Tales of the World confirmed for US release in late summer for the PSP.

...

Why the hell did they pick this one? I think ToD2 would have been a much better choice if they wanted to do a PSP game, honestly. Come on Namco! We're DYING for that game to be localized and released here!

The game looks and plays like shit. Definitely should've gone with Destiny 2.

Still, I suppose if you like fan service, you'll get a kick out of the game. Plus it'll introduce several characters not seen in any US Tales game (Harold, Eugene and Annie, to be exact).
