Finally, a respectable RPG...well, action/RPG...for the Gamecube. Tales of Symphonia is one of the best games I have had the fortune of playing.

You can always tell what's considered a good game that when you play it so much, you decide to go look for the rest of the series.
Most RPGs these days last about one play-through and then it spends the rest of its days collecting dust. ...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

wow. Finished this today after 42 hours. And what a great adventure it was.

There's so many things that Namco could have screwed up when making this game, but somehow, they managed to get it all right. This was a pleasure to play....    [ Read The Full Review... ]

I won't say this isn't a great game.  I won't say it's not enjoyable. 
The only weak points in this game are the plot and the soundtrack.  It's so childish, you can tell everything that will happen before the character will even know they're...    [ Read The Full Review... ]
