Tales of Symphonia Chronicles Collectors Edition

So it has come to my attention that there is an HD remake of "Tales of Symphonia" and "Tales of Symphonia 2: Dawn of a New World" coming out on the 28th of February. This is because Tales of Symphonia is 10 years old this year. There is a collectors edition that has been announced which comes with the game, 2 CD soundtrack, artwork, novel and 5 mini figurines.

It seems to be retailing for £70. Anyone played the games before, or looking to pick up the HD collection?

I've played both games, so this interests me. However, I don't have a PS3, so that's a wasted use of money if I end up buying this. xD Both are great games, with Tales of Symphonia more so than the sequel. I wouldn't mind getting it for the figurines, though! :D

I've not played the second one yet. Shauna and I recently played through the first game, which I played to death as a teenager. Despite loving the game, I pointed out how much I was annoyed by "This level" or "that character". I think I complained about every single area we went into and then we finished the game. Dunno why I loved the game so much as a kid if everything about it was annoying xD

Edit - If you are a fan of the figurines, maybe you should check out the "Tales of" Nenrdoriod Figureshttp://gallery.abyssalchronicles.com...a70d9a_(1).jpg. I bought this set on ebay yesterday because I planned to get the Collectors edition of Tales of Symphonia. I have far too many mini figures to fit on my shelf as it is, no idea where these are all going to fit xD

HOLY trout.

DAY ONE PURCHASE. I did everything in this game and enjoyed every single second. I wonder if they fixed the spell canceling / insta-cast proc you could exploit in the GCN version. Raine is the dust-broom wielding immortal.

When I played it recently Shauna played as Lloyd, and I played as zelos. When it turns out that camera focused on her and not the field it was impossible to play anything but mages. So I opted to play as Raine.

I haven't even heard of the series until I found out about this game through the wiki for games coming out this year. Sounds interesting, but I probably won't be picking it up for a while, if at all. Too busy with the games from my request list.

The "tales of" series of one of the larger RPG series in Japan. 14 total games have been released, 9 of which have been localized in the west. My favorite in the series is Tales of Vesperia for the Xbox 360, but tales of symphonia was the first one I played. Got me some nostalgia associated to this game.

I will totally get this. Been waiting for it for some time now.

I am pre-ordering that collector's edition at the end of the month. (like 2 days before it's released xD)

I loved ToS but never got around to buying Dawn of a New World, so I'll definitely be using this opportunity.

I bought Dawn of a New World like the week is was released. I saw it in the stores and had to pick it up knowing how rare it was. I still haven't played it. I am amazing at playing games I own clearly. xD

Saw this advertised on the PSN a couple of weeks back and pre-ordered it immediately. Never did play the second one so I'm looking forward to it.

There was a small moment of panic there as 5/6 retailers either did not have the stock for the collectors edition. Amazon and game don't even appear to be taking orders which is weird so I assume they are out of stock too. One retailer I'd never heard of before still had them in stock (365 games), so I've ordered it from there. Had I waited until Wednesday like I had planned to I might not have been able to get the order in.

Standard edition is still everywhere though.

I'm in love with the Tales series.

I wanted to get the NA collector's edition. But I've been looking around and it seems to be sold out everywhere! I just...I...

I'll pick it up at some point, I'm a huge fan of the Tales of Symphonia original and never found a copy of the sequel so yes plz

It's out now and I've got mine downloading on the old PS3. So let's talk about the classic title and its sequel I never played because it was on the Wii until now.
