Tales of Symphonia for GameCube

Pros: Excellent Combat System, Story, Graphics
Cons: Overworld Graphics

The Gamecube is a console that has had a big problem concerning a lack of RPGs in it's past, though it was never as bad as the Xbox, it was still in dire need of an epic tale. Namco had just what the doctor ordered, as they began developing not one, but ...

Pros: Fun Unique Battles, Being Able To Avoid Battles, Graphics, Story, Music, Dungeon Variety
Cons: The First Disk Takes a Long Time To Beat But That's Actually Another Pro

It was a little over a year ago when three of my friends and I decided to host a HALO tournament at our local arcade. I paid $10 to enter for both the HALO and HALO 2 tournaments, and out of the two, my team won the HALO tournament. The prize ended up ...

Pros: Unique battle system, story, humor, dungeons are never the same, lengthy
Cons: Due to my laziness the battles can get a bit repitive

Being as big on rpgs as I am, I wanted more of them for my Gamecube then just Skies of arcadia. Now off the top of my head I cant think of many rpgs for the cube. I had seen this game often for awhile and I always had interest in it until one day I had ...

Pros: Great game systems, multiplayer(!!!), well polished, decent voice acting
Cons: overworld graphics, depth can get confusing, kinda lame story

Overall: 8 Gameplay: 9 Graphics: 6 Sound: 8 Concept: 8 Replay Value: 8 When gamers hear Namco they think of great fighting games like the Tekken and Soul Calibur series or, if they're a little older, arcade classics like Pac-Man. What they ...

Pros: fun gameplay,fun gameplay,
Cons: graphics aren't great

When I first heard of Tales of Symphonia I didn't know what it was about but I wanted to try it. It was one of those times when I got bored of all the other games I had for GameCube and wanted a new game. Since I didn't know how good it was I had asked ...

Pros: Unique battle system, multiplayer
Cons: Awful pacing in both story and battles, ugly presentation

I wasn't going to write a review for this game. Shoot, I hardly write any reviews any more. I've realized how pointless it is since 99% of the gaming population bases their purchases entirely on hype now.However, the completely undue praise this game ...

Pros: gameplay, battle system, strategic elements, graphics
Cons: voice acting, predictable plot, most characters are 'hollow'

Ahhh, the “Tales of…” series! Actually, you’re probably blinking and asking yourself, “Series? What? There’s more?” This isn’t surprising. (and also means the title of the review is lost on you) The Tales series never ...

Pros: Good plot twists. Nice graphics. Real entertaining battle system.
Cons: Music is nothing special and voice acting can be stale.

What else can be said about this game other than,WOW! Even at first I thought that maybe this game with all this hype would be another disappointment. But it definitely was not. Tales of Symphonia is easily the best RPG on the gamecube right now. The ...

Pros: Battle system
Multiplayer
Story and character development
Cons: Camera for multiplayer needs tweaked

I have had a great deal of trouble finding today’s role-playing games to be as charming and soulful as the older classics. Sure, many are visually impressive but the battle systems remain dull and unrefined, and the stories are not requiring the ...

Pros: The first original GC turn based RPG is almost flawless
Cons: nature of dialog can be a bet stiff

Name: Tales of Symphonia System: Game Cube Release and development: Namco US release date: 7-13-2004 Development and/or staff origin: Japan Supported devices: Memory Card Genre: Traditional RPG (turn based) Background: The Game Cube has had ...

Pros: Fun and addicting, many similarities to Final Fantasy 7 (that's a good thing!)
Cons: Limited voice acting, Sheer amount of features can be overwhelming at first.

Here it is, Tales of Symphonia for Gamecube. I understand there are Japanese versions of this series to be played, but this is the first US release in the series. I have not played any of the prior games but WOW, if you like a console Role Playing Game ...

Pros: Graphics, audio, replay value, gameplay, humour, character availability, plot twists.
Cons: Sometimes the action phrases can be REALLY cheesy

Tales Of Symphonia™ is a "T" rated game that takes place in no exact time line, it just takes away from the world and goes into its own place. As the STORY goes, it is a small world, the world of Sylvarant, as you try to regenerate the world of its ...

Pros: Battle System, Story, Charicters, Graphics, just overall great!
Cons: The whole item delay system is ridicolous, have to play through beggining for the goods

When I first heared of this game in a magazine before it came out, I knew I had to get it. Well come Christmas, it came to me but now the question is how good was it? Story: It dosen't start out as much. Basicly you're a fairly dumb kid named Lloyd. ...

Pros: Voice acting is decent
Cons: Plot doesn't draw you in enough The initial plot is tedium

If this is one of the best the GameCube has to offer as far as RPGs go, then I'll stick with my PS2 thank you very much. I personally feel this game is overhyped and not nearly as good as people make it out to be. While it may be a decent enough ...

Pros: -Characters and story

Cons: -Battle system (okay, but could be better)
-Music

Tales of Symphonia created a pretty big hype among Gamecube owners in America. It was basically the first good RPG the system had seen here.Symphonia is definently a great game to have. It has its share of plot twists, comical moments, serious ...
