Okay, first off, for Tales of Rebirth PSP, a preorder bonus has been confirmed, called Dramatic DVD: Peach Pie Edition (lol), which will be containing footage of Jump Festa 2008, interview with the voice actors, and the usual skits. Also, character pages for the remaining characters have been put up, plus information on the arena system, and the new skills of your enemies, complete with their new Hi-Ougi cut ins~ Screenshots can be found here.
For ToS-R, they have updated with character info on the characters we talked about in the last post, Aqua and Tenebrae (info on them will be up soon on this site, please wait a couple of days), info on the skit system, and animation and in-game screenshots. Screenshots can be found in the site's gallery, here. It seems that Aqua and Tenebrae are both centurions of Ratatosk. Tenebrae is of the dark element, while Aqua, obviously, is of water. They've also updated with the character info on Regal, Sheena, and Presea. And since the old ToS characters now have different roles than in the original ToS, we will be putting up character pages for them separately in the ToS-R section.
As for ToDDC, they've updated the Special section with a commentary of Pierre de Chaltier's voice actor. Speaking of the Special section, we've uploaded the commentaries to the Tales of Destiny Audio section.
And we'd like to greet Wings of an Angel a belated Happy 1st Anniversary~! You've done well! Visit their site for their first anniversary mass release!
We have a total of four scans today. First off, the two new Tales of Symphonia: Knight of Ratatosk scans, courtesy of Kouli once again, feature two new characters. The first one is a blue cat girl named Aqua, and the second one is that black cat creature shown in the trailer, who's name is Tenebrae. From what we can make out from the scans, Aqua seems to be a follower of Richter's, while Tenebrae follows Marta more. We'll have more info once the Tales Channel gets their info on them up.
As for the Tales of Rebirth PSP scans, the first one, courtesy of happip, features the same info we had before, but the only interesting thing is that the enemies will now have their own hi-ougi cut-ins (Hell yes Saleh XD!)!! As for the second one, courtesy of GonXFreeces, is more of an advertisment scan. Just click on the thumbnails above to view them.
We have two new VJump scans (the last one has been cropped into two more, so there are three files) courtesy of Kouli from the Official Tales Forum. Nothing new to be noted except some new opening screenshots which can be found on the second scan. It also has some info on the upcoming PSP port for Tales of Rebirth. (Sorry for the lateness, I already got these yesterday, but I forgot to post them up >.>)
As for the new affiliate, we're now affiliated with Game Valor, a recently opened gaming site with info, guides, and a lively forum. We still don't have their button though (if the owner of GV is reading this, please comment with an 88x31 button so that we can put it up on the affiliates list. Thank you.)
As for that, ahem, shameless advertising, I recommend everyone who has nothing else to do when online to join the TCG_Exchange Livejournal community~. It's basically a pixel card collection game, which you earn from contributing to various LiveJournal community banner/icon contests. And yes they have Tales cards XD.
>> Tales of Destiny Director's Cut: Website Update
SyphonVectorman
The Official Tales of Destiny Director's Cut website has been updated with new content. Content includes the addition of a page detailing the game's various systems and an update to the Special page with special commentary by Rutee Katrea's voice actor (Yuka Imai).
A new trailer for Tales of Destiny Director's Cut has just been put up over at the Official ToDDC site. It's been uploaded to the site and YouTube. Although YouTube hasn't finished processing it yet (it's been half an hour damn it) (To the mods, once you're online and it STILL isn't up, please reupload to our YouTube channel. Account details are somewhere in the Mod Forum)
In addition, they have also put up the same commercial Nore139 posted before. It's also been uploaded to AC's YouTube channel and the site. This one, miraculously, has already been processed by YouTube.
And yes, I'm aware that I haven't finished a single one of those things I'm supposed to be doing down there...
It's a bit late, but this old December 2007 article from Famitsu.com reveals that a new Tales of Mobile game will be released sometime this year. The name for it is still unannounced, but the protagonists character art have been revealed. Similar to ToM's Tales of Breaker, Commons, and Wahrheit, it will be featuring its own unique storyline. Explorations will be done in dungeons, and if you look closely at the character art, they somewhat seem to be related (lol hairstyle).
Aside from that, Namco has again trademarked the following Tales of names for their future use (MEANING, they won't necessarily do all of the games here, maybe just one, like they did with Vesperia's batch). Source is from this thread from the NeoGAF forums.
#2007-115292 Tales of the Genesis (video game, toy, streaming contents) #2007-115291 Tales of the Nexus (video game, toy, streaming contents) #2007-115290 Tales of Hearts (video game, toy, streaming contents)
As for the site, we've just affiliated with FF12 Sector, one of the biggest Final Fantasy 12 fansites out there, with a lot of info, guides, and media~. Don't forget to drop by!
And now, pending site updates ('cause I fail at balancing internet and school ._.): Tales of Destiny Director's Cut page Tales of Vesperia page Tales of Innocence and Symphonia Knight of Ratatosk page updates Individual Story Line, Battle System, and Ratings and Reviews pages for each Tales game New "The People Behind..." Pages New Tales Lyrics (there's a lot, mind you ._.) Updates for Tales comics (sorry for my epic slowness ._.) Massive amount of avatars, signatures, and fanarts (actually, they're up in the gallery, but the list hasn't been updated) ToS OVA screenshots (I fail, I know ._.) Other Official Art we haven't added yet New Music Tracks for Download and the JukeBox
This'll be like my personal list. If you see something striked through, then it's done .
