Good stuff. Digital & physical from day one is awesome. Wonder if US is also getting Xillia on PSN, I know Europe is.
And as I figured, Vita games are still a "no," despite the #jrpgvita
EDIT:
Another contest hint.

I had actually come to this conclusion, but was a little unsure about one of my picks. This just confirms it : D

Here's an English version of that interview.
With this second hint, I complete my list and now I'm confident about my picks. Still I'll wait for more hints to be extra sure.
Uh... by the Soul Calibur team? no thanks. That sounds terrible.
You don't consider Soul Calibur a good series? Or Tekken team. Either one would be fine with me.
I started Tales of Innocence on DS, and, um... Ruca is going to be another one of those protagonists, isn't he...
I thought it was impressive Lloyd fell asleep standing up in class while holding buckets of water above the ground. But, damn. Somehow, within seconds, Ruca falls asleep standing in the middle of a field where a game of 6 on 6 soccer is being played.

Reading this post from the top, I thought you were going to complain about Ruca's complete lack of self confidence.
I was, but then I got distracted by a thought about the Symphonia remake, remembered how that game opened, and for some reason decided to throw in a pointless observation about how they both fall asleep standing up.
I quite like Soul Calibur. It's hard to know if they're a good choice I guess, since SCV was rushed and there's no consensus on the last good SC after 2.
I can't really picture them being the team to make a Tales fighting game. Of course they're not going to just plaster Tales characters onto the Project Soul engines but Tales combat seems so far away from Soul combat that I wonder if Tales Studio should just make it themselves.
Assuming they even bother to make another fighting-Tales again. We'll see what Smash 4 looks like and how Tales, Tekken, and Soul employees handle Smash work.

i think the trauma of tales of legendia is still in most people hearts. ( only go shina and 2 characters saved that game )
Seriously ? i'm not sure , they do make great 2D fighters but i'd rather have a team with experience in the 3D area.
IN all seriousness , Tales of VS wasn't a horrible game ...with more time on another console , it could have been good.

Some folks are saying it was up briefly on the US PSN store and someone said he had an error when trying to get it but some others are saying they were able to download it all and it's working.
No proof yet apart from the screenshots of the store listing for Xillia though

That's most definitely from the Australian store. Retail listing for Xillia is $84 to 88 here so it's not that far out.
Oh okay, I thought it was US and immediately thought "fake" haha.
It could work. Too bad most of the cast will have swords and Demon Fang.
Which is really silly considering that they were clearly working on a genre out of their strengths. They should have made Tales of VS in the first place.
As far as ASW doing it, it would be great but they're busy with the new Guilty Gear, plus I can't see why Namco would outsource it when they have both a Tekken and Soul Calibur team to use.
People should check out the fangames ACS, ACS3D, and Cross Calibur for some ideas of how a good Tales fighting game can work. They have some interesting ideas in how to approach it.

Not Smash 4 lol use the engine for their own Smash tales game =P, at least release on both Wii U and PS3 though else meltdown and betrayals ensued XDThey already said it isn't likely for Smash 4. So I wouldn't hold my breath.

They just shouldn't add every main character from a Tales game or add more than just the main characters.
We did get some 'variety' in Tales of Vs in terms of characters. I mean they managed to turn Mint into a 'fighter'.
I rather have a console Tales of Musou game though. Namco's totally trying to enter the musou business and Tales has a big enough cast for it to work.

Yeah, but you know they'd just throw in the popular ones :/ Yuri, Leon, Zelos, Jude, etc
But Milla does use a sword
as does 1/3 of Ludger. Oh but there's tons of non sword users. Like Norma <3

No bias by you
Of course not!
Tales of Leon and Yuri. Would sell like hotcakes.
Yuri dating sim. Options are Leon and Judas.
Anyway, another hint for the Colors contest.
https://twitter.com/AbyssalC/status/356399753778573313
Tales of x Fire Emblem: Summoner's Lineage. Complete with pair up mechanic and being able to marry Leon and Emil.
(...aside from the weird shipping stuff this would be fun as hell)
My list is still right. Although with easy clues like this and the one before, I'm expecting a lot of people getting 30/30.

Shipping stuff is already wierd, this would make it orders of magnitude wierder!
New Facebook gallery for the Milla figure:

This caught my eye:
I have 3 CE pre-ordered >_> (not because of that, though)

Seventh Chord.
Nope, they were developed by 7th Chord.
Hard to tell when we don't even know how many CEs are put aside for each country and it's available ONLY on their website in Europe.
People are price gouging those CE pretty hard, maybe I should've bought a couple myself!
On another note, I wonder if we'll ever get the Tales of Xillia PS3 edition treatment for the PS4 for a future mothership title (one of the main reasons why I want to hold out on the PS4 but probably won't have the patience to).

Oh duh, I couldn't remember. Who are they? The new Alfa System for the Tales series?
Having a lot of fun in resuming Xillia 2, and just finished Chapter 12. The game's been rather hard lately because I haven't bought/synthesized anything in quite awhile lol. This whole debt thing has been making me pretty stingy on getting new equipment until recently.
A darker story in Tales is rather interesting and I'm liking it quite a bit. Xillia 2 was a nice way for the series to at least experiment things a bit more as far as console Tales go.

I don't know much about 7th Chord. However, they did make Keroro RPG!
Which was a big rehash of Phantasia Narikiri X =p
There's nothing to know about them, before working with Tales related stuff, they were developing some crap Visual Novel out of licensed anime on DS.

Wait. You can already buy Tales of Xillia on the Australian PSN store? Is it still up? They should release it early, if its ready. Wouldn't be surprised if its just sitting in a warehouse waiting for release date.
