Tales of Vesperia - XBOX 360

Tales of Vesperia

I get all kinds of excited whenever I hear about a JRPG for the 360. I think, “Oh! My 360 will have purpose!” The official Japanese website has a trailer for download. There are two options. The first is an actual download (r-click save as…) and the second is streaming. Honestly, I tried the streaming first. Took too long. So I downloaded the 1280 x 720 and wow, it’s pretty. Crystal clear animation made my mouth water. I love the Tales of… series. Most Tales of… games seem to come out eventually in the US, so I’m crossing my fingers for this one. Nothing like playing stuff like this in HD…

Bully XBOX 360 Is Completely Broken

Apparently the game crashes like crazy at random times.

I think I’ve seen enough reports of the game freezing up where I’m pretty sure it’s not just an isolated issue.

At first I was thinking it my 360 was about to red ring when my game froze 3 times in a row, but then MaizeRage25 started saying in the official thread that he was having the same problems.. so I looked on GameFAQs… and some more people said their game freezed. I’m sure I could’ve found more if I looked harder.

Others are complaining about the shoddy framerate on a PS2 PORT, audio glitches and brief lockups.

So obviously this isn’t a problem with the console… but did Rockstar really let the game through QA in this state?
