Beautiful animations, entrancing storyline, and unique battle system makes this one of the best games for the PSP.
The battle system is really something else. It's different from all the other turn based battle systems out there. You get to run around, like in Kingdom Hearts and attack when you wish. You can't really control your party members, but you can configure them into defending, or attacking head on. And of course, you can run from battles when you're just sick of fighting the same monsters over and over again.
The storyline isn't the same old story that you find in all the other RPGS out there. It's worth spending your 30 hours of life following.
This game is the perfect RPG for the PSP. Whether you're new to the Tales series or even if you played all the other ones, check this one out. You won't regret it.
