Ok, here it is non-insiders! Someone has posted a downloadable version of the opening movie...though...it is kind of weird how they did it...
First, go here.
http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.consoles-games.com/forum/viewtopic.php%3Ft%3D3074 &prev=/search%3Fq%3DTales%2Bof%2BSymphonia%2Bopening%2Bmovie%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26safe%3Dactive
(it's long cause it's translated)
Then, download BOTH "videos". They aren't actually both videos. Video1 is a program in which you need Video2 to run, which will extract the movie to your computer. To, extract it, just run program that comes in Video1(when you have downloaded Video2, of course) and click the bottom left button. I told you it was weird. After it is extracted.....WATCH IT!!!
Also, I found another place to get the opening from. Though, this place has a suprisingly larger file, so I have yet to download it to see if it has anything the one above doesn't. You can find this one here:
http://ruliweb.intizen.com/data/rulinews/read.htm?num=11159
(click the link above the menu pic; it should have "mpg" beside it).
However, be warned, this file is 53MB! This site also has "game footage"....but it's 134MB!!!! So, I didn't even attempt downloading that. But, if you want to try.....
http://ruliweb.intizen.com/data/rulinews/read.htm?num=11160
go ahead.
And for these two files you have this person to thank.
http://majoria-news.tripod.com/
Well, that's it, get downloading and get watching the opening to one of the greatest RPGS EVER!!!!!!!(not to mention get listening to a pretty catchy song....and this is coming from a dude who listens to Disturbed and the like regularly....do you think that's weird? eh?)

Man, I'm super hyped about ToS. I could get the game while I was stying in HK, but that would take the whole experience away. Chances are for us Europeans, we have to wait like 12 months or worst case scenario would be not coming out at all.
I pray to God that won't happen. I trust you Namco!

Its like playing a very action packed yet emotional movie. Also I love the Tales series for the fact that they have very beautiful anime cutscenes that bring you into the game. I've seen realistic FMV so many times that I'm simply not impressed with it anymore, and it also takes me out of the game completely.

BAD-ASS! The song plays so well with what's going on...I hope they put it in the U.S. version as an extra...
(I also hope they find good VAs for the English version. The last thing I want is crappy voice-acting in my most anticipated game >_< )
one last edit: I hope there will be a ToS anime...They have a Tales of Eternia series, so it's very possible

In my opinion, the Grandia series has the best battle system in an RPG to date and any RPG that emulates that is worth a shot for me.
I think you have it all wrong... If this one plays anything like the other Tales games, it's NOTHING like Grandia. All the other Tales games have a battle system which is more like a 2D fighting game. That's not a bad thing at all; I think it's one of the most entertaining battle systems ever.
Guys, if you're hyped about this and haven't played the others, go get them! Tales of Destiny 1 and 2 on the Playstation! I also own Tales of Phantasia on the PS, but it was only in Japanese...

Most of the time the voice acting in american games/shows, are better than its japanese counterpart. The first example I could think of is Dragonball Z, goku and vegeta sound alot better than their japanese versions. I'm not saying there aren't exceptions, becuase there are, just from what I've experience, american voice acting is just a little better.
If there taking this long to translate and record voice overs, then they better get it right. No crappy FFX or RE voiceacting....I want Eternal Darkness good.

"The game is just as pleasing to the ears as to the eyes. It opens with a sweeping orchestral piece created specifically for the U.S. version of the game, and features a soundtrack that elevates the play experience without being overly obtrusive. Additionally, all of the 10,000 plus lines of spoken dialogue have been rerecorded in English by professional voice actors..."
" Giving voice to heroes (and villains)
Namco invited us to sit in on a couple of voice-over sessions for Tales of Symphonia to give us a glimpse at what goes into localizing a 700-page script. Among the actors contributing to the project are Tara Strong and Jennifer Hale, both of whom may be familiar to gamers."
Yes, you heard that right, guys. Tara Strong and Jennifer Hale. Tara Strong is noted for being the voice of Rikku in FFX and FFX-2.(as well as the voice of Bubbles on the Powerpuff Girls) And Jennifer Hale, if you didn't know, was Dr. Naomi Hunter and Alexandra Roivos.
And those are just two of the revealed voice actors! I have no doubts about the quality of the translation we're going to receive, now! By the way, nothing is being cut out of the game. None of the optional cutscenes, none of the FMV, none of the dialogue, nothing!
I can't wait! ^_^
Post by: Uncle Rich AiAi on April 25, 2004, 06:07:45 PM
I had my doubts about the translation and VA (still do, but not as much), but having Jennifer Hale on the VA cast makes me one happy boy! ^_^

it's good to know that we will have our ToS uncut and uncensored ( it better be )
I hope it's advertised the hell out of, it needs all the publicy it can get.

Its true. His got a point.

Post by: MysticGohan24 on May 06, 2004, 08:35:24 PM
Also Today was one of the worst for me, My GameCube Reset button and Eject button were jammed. They would not pop in place as they should, and by that I mean the lid would not close and latch as it should.
The reset button just stayed down. I don't understand how'd that happen, "or either for that case" So I end up calling a Nintendo rep. Fixing it would cost $42.54 and that was with a $15 discount, I wasn't really thrilled with that option, the other was to give me a refurbished cube for $75.55 with the LOZ. Bonus disc, the one that came with the WW Pre-order, Which I already have.
Anyway, My dad decided to try using a non-oil lube, to see if it will get the joints and springs to popp like they should. Thus surely enough.... they did. : ) imagine my joy, lol I would rather not pay to fix it at that amount, for something so simple. Let alone buying another cube, I had this one since Launch.... so it's lucky.. Yeah! : )
Now the reset button is working like it should, and so is the eject button/ lid opener.
But I did managed to quiz him abit, He had no idea that Squarenix was working on a Kingdom Hearts for GBA. Let alone anything else coming from them.....yet.
But I did mention Silicon Knights, He says that web sites ( IGN ) jump the gun and like to speculate. There's nothing wrong with Nintendo or Silicon Knights, SK
will be allowed to develop for any system they wished for, I did ask him if the relationship will be kinda like that of Camelot. He said yeah, they do have projects in the works.
So we do have something to expect, what that is..... I don't know.
But I do know this....... I like the Super Mario Bros. Music they play over the phone, it's very nice : )

So how long is the FMV? And how close is it to Grandia II's Battle system?
As I love Grandia II, Still have it for DC.
I have to replay it soon, it's been awhile since I played it. But I do love the lead character and that Devilish Vixen

Takashi Nagasako (Ganondorf OoT and Tww) does Cervantes
Also did you know that the voice for the Skull Kid in Majora's Mask plays Link in the Wind waker (Sachi Matsumuto)
Well thats my pointless information for the day
Oh and I think Nightmare (Japanese) is way better much more emotion in him
And to bring it back on topic Tales of Symphonia will be class, it fixes everything thats can be annoying in RPG's control of your character in battles, no random battles and other stuff which I cant think of

Anything with an anime look and feel should have Japanese voices, though, because there's never been a good anime dub in history (I don't care what anyone says, the Cowboy Bebop dub was atrocious, especially compared to the amazing Japanese cast).
Frankly, the prospect of having to put up with English voices is really killing my desire to buy both ToS and Baten Kaitos...if they'd leave the Japanese voices alone I'd most definetly buy them both, no brainer.

Post by: couchmonkey on June 09, 2004, 06:03:50 AM
Edit: I actually had a constructive comment to add here. I read the new impressions of the English version of the game, and I totally agree with Jonathan Metts' complaint that RPGs are becoming too angsty lately. I don't mind covering serious issues or characters having a bad day, but a lot of people seem to mistake depressing, melodramatic seriousness for good writing.

QuoteThanks! Much glad to hear the voices are optional. Ooh. I hope the Japanese VA really is an unlockable. That would be great. I love it when players are given options since everyones preferences regarding VA can be different.

As for ToS having an option to turn the voices off, I'm glad about that, and if it does in fact have an option for the *real* voices, even better.

Actually I've heard some VA in Baten Kaitos in a couple of trailers and they sound pretty good. I don't know if the voices were originally English or originally Japanese but whatever the case I'm most likely going to keep the game voices in English for that game.

Not enough is known yet to answer that properly, the camera is ussualy far from the faces to pick up on facial expressions.

Baten Kaitos' E3 teaser trailer should be up soon publically, and may answer some voice acting questions.

Dunno about that. It''ll be 2 discs right, just like the Japanese version? I'm not sure if you can fit both English and Japanese onto 2 discs...
EDIT: Opps........just realised I said the same thing a few pages back....lol

Aha, so true...*shakes fist* You have yet to fight the elementals I think, which are really cool because Fighting of the Spirit plays during those battles...
(which imo is one of the best videogame pieces ever concocted)...You still have quite a ways, but fight on!

On an interesting note, I earned Gnome as my 2nd spirit (low low level characters at this time) after a wrong turn... during that fight, my party was pretty much dead except for "Klarth" who was miraculously still standing and for the most part INVINCIBLE all thanks to the Protect Ring he wore. If I revived a party member, they'd die after 2 attacks. He whooped Gnome all by himself.

Also TOS is expected to be a 80+ game, that is including all the little extras.
I know people who have beat just the main story in about 40 to 73 hours. Its a long game and all the people I know who have it are very pleased with thier purchase.

You did import right? I mean, the game's not in America yet is it? Cause if somehow I missed out on its release, I'ma be REGALLY pissed. 
Post by: akdaman1 on June 17, 2004, 03:10:33 PM
Actually TOS is coming out in the US on the 13th of July. Just a little question though for those who have imported off lik-sang.com. How long does it take for the game to get to Australia? Do you have any good/bad relations with them?
I know its a little off-topic but seeing how alot of you are gonna import TOS it seems like a reasonable question.

Noone would be suprised. I also doubt that BK and Donkey Konga will be released in the land down under.

As you all know I have been thinking of importing the game, but recently it came to my mind that school starts on the 13th of July (how tight) and my time with the game would be limited.
Now I want this game more then anything in the world but if my experience will be hindered due to school then should I not import it?
Im thinking import it on the 5-6th week of school, it will arrive on the 7th-8th week where my school work is limited.
What would you all do?

Heh I'm the type of person who if they play the game too much will get tired of it very fast and need to take a break from the game sometimes if I don't want to lose my interest in it completely. It's kinda sad...
Post by: akdaman1 on June 24, 2004, 09:36:28 PM
It sucks bad.
For me the longer I stay away from a game the less intrest I have in it.

Cept here where there is a grammar mistake in the first sentance.
EDIT ATTACK: Looks like I got pwnd. Sorry, I honestly thought that I was being helpful. But as we all know, trying to be helpful always ends in a horrible burning failure of DOOM.

What's the mistake? Genis is singular, if that's what you mean...I end possessives with an apostrophe only when the word is both plural and ends in "s". It is a strict implementation of a grammar rule whose enforcement has become very lax in recent years.
And Bill, that picture is VERY disturbing. Congrats.
