I recently got both and am loving them both. :-) Probably Paper Mario moreso right now, but maybe ToS later when I get into unison attacks n stuff.

When I bought those games, I bought them on the same day.. that's kinda funny...

I liked Tales alot more though, Paper Mario had a few slow moments (Train level suucked)..

That's EASY. Paper Mario is by far the better game, probably the best RPG on the cube by far, and among the best of it's generation/ Actually, I'd go as far as saying it is the BEST RPG from the last gen (yeah, it's way better then FFX)

Paper Mario is better. The Thousand Year Door is one of the best games ever made, Tales of Symphonia isn't.

Paper Mario, definitely.

Though Skies of Arcadia Legends is slightly better.

I enjoyed ToS a lot more, it just had something about it that made me love the game. Paper Mario is good but definetly not the best RPG on the cube.

I haven't played The Thousand Year Door, only the first Paper Mario, and I definitely enjoyed Tales of Symphonia far more than that.

I enjoyed Paper Mario more, despite how it could drag on in spots. Iliked Tales of Symphonia a lot, but there was something about it that I didn't like. I don't really know the word to describe it is, maybe sloppy sort of in the presentation. I can't exactly put my finger on it.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is much better than Tales of Symphonia.

Although the first Paper Mario is far superior to the both of them. :P

I do not play Paper Mario yet. Tales of Symphonia is really best game for Gamecube.

The heaviness of Paper Mario's drop from playability after the main storyline and the pit of 100 trials makes it suck.

Tales of Symphonia is a game easily playable for perhaps 1000 hours before the presentation starts to age.

I love both for different reasons, so I can't really choose between them...

You could actually say the same thing about Symphonia, though it also had many serious moments.

I personally prefer Symphonia because I really enjoy the combat system and the replay value is insane with the grade system.

yeah, I'm starting to like ToS better. I liked Paper Mario better at first becuz it was simpler and easier to get into, while I was trying to figure out the story and combat in ToS. But yeah, any type of action combat like in ToS, beats any turn-based stuff, even as creative as it is in Paper Mario, IMHO anyway.

Paper Mario. It's crazzy to see so many people liked ToS. Especialy since it blatantly ripped off plot points of a few Final Fantasy games, the voice acting wasn't all that great and the battle system was pure hack n' slash.
