Methinks it's just another Tales game, 'cept a lot less special than the Gamecube's Tales of Symphonia. I'ma buy it regardless, as I quite enjoyed ToS: Dawn of the New World, despite mass opinion. I didn't play the GC version by the way, so that probably has something to do with it.

I was planning on getting this game when it came out on the PS2 (as I love Symphonia), but never did. I might get it on the 3DS.  ;D

I loved the ToS series but I never finished the second one.  Just got bored of it.

Cannot wait. Sold my PS2 and never got around to buying this. I heard load times were a huge issue with the original and this version is supposed to improve them.

This was actually announced on my birthday, so it made my day even better. Abyss is one of my favorite Tales games and I would love to have the excuse to sink another hundred hours into it.
