Which do you think is going to be better, the CG version of the new tales game or the anime version?
I personally think that the anime cut-scenes are going to be better, but that is because I usually wouldn't associate CG with a tales game. I actually wouldn't care which version U.S. gets as long as we get a version. After what happened with both Tales of the Tempest, and Tales of Innocence I am a little worried.
If the GC version looks as good on the pictures as they do in motion, they will atleast be something to consider.
I'll probably stick with the anime cut-scenes, because that's how the tales games just looks likes.
The CG looks pretty good. I'll have to decide when I see them in motion. (though Tales games tend to look better in anime, and it sticks out less from the actual gameplay which uses anime sprites)
Hmmm...didn't expect a completely different OP and some of cut scenes look a lot darker on the CG version.
Damn, might have to play through both versions for the cutscenes.
From where I stand, higher 2nd hand sales can mean many things:
*Lower satisfaction from the animated version from players
*More new copies sold for animated overall (which is probably the case)
*Japanese likes their anime/japanese hate CG
*Animated version is superior to the CG one
Nah,I think the anime-cut scenes for Tales games are still better. I can't imagine Luke or Stan in 3d....Though some might see this as a good change of pace, but I think it's better if Namco sticks with 2d for the Tales of series
If that's what CG characters look like in that game, I prefer the anime one. CG characters look too asiany in that game. However it doesnt mean i despite asian characters, I have played dynasty warriors ALOT. But, i just don like the look of those two characters in the cg picture provided in this thread.
