I like the skits sicne they add more character interaction.
Like most people, Symphonia was my first Tales game but since it was one of the few first RPGs I played I didn't think it was too cliche >_>
I played Phantasia for the GBA, though while it was OK the battle system was too slow. I liked the dubbed OVA!
Legendia had a good story and decent music but the battle system was a bit underwhelming
Abyss is my favorite of the series and one omy favorite games ever. I liked the battle system, characters, music, story, etc. Jade Curtiss is awesome =)
I also imported Destiny PS2 Remake, Destiny 2 (JP), and Rebirth from Japan.
I loved Destinry Remake since it had an awesome battle system and I liked kicking a** with Lilith. Destiny 2 and Rebirth were cool as well.
And I can't wait for Dawn of the New World and Vesperia!

Anywho, Tales of Symphonia's my favorite, but Tales of the Abyss comes close. Jade Curtiss, you're awesome...and Dist. I love Dist! <3 Now if only they could do Squeenix-grade graphics...That'd be so hawt.

I really wish Namco Bandai would release the PSP ports of the games that never made it to the US though... (Destiny 2 & Rebirth)
-----------------------------------------
All the inappropriate scenes from DeJap were hilarious:
Voice inside: Put your pants back on! I think my husband's home!
Cless: *sweatdrop*
BTW, has anyone seen the Apple/Lemon Gumi videos? They're these DVDs that came with preorders of certain games and it's in skit format but they're funny.
Jade: Well, Tales of the Abyss hadn't been released yet so this poll isn't as accurate as it could be.
Zelos: Hey! Luke's here as 12th! (Implied: ...so where are you?)
Jade: ....
EDIT: My collection of Tales stuff =P

I've only played Symphonia, Abyss, and World. I really wanna play the others. I really, really, REALLY do. D':
It's okay. I liked how some of the characters interacted with each other, but I wished more Abyss characters were included.

I don't have a 360, so Vesperia, as hyped up about it I am, is out of my reach at the moment.
I really want Innocence. Too bad they haven't said anything about bringing that over. I'm intrigued by ... er, something, but it's a spoiler xD
I have a Wii, though, so Knight of Ratatosk/Dawn of the New World should be within my grasp.
I think Legendia has its own charms. The backwardness of the battle system probably wouldn't bother me at all.

Jade, hands down. Yet a tie for second is still going on for Luke and Asch. But Guy is close behind in third.
Ugh, whenever I pressed that button, I felt like hitting Mieu. So annoying...

Now that ToS2 is actually out I'm waaaay too tempted to go look up spoilers. So far, I've only watched the full opening animation, but it's really hard to ignore... ._.
Speaking of ToS... is it just me, or did the ToS OVA pull a Star Ocean EX? (in other words, did it stop right at the halfway point of the game's plot and decide to end right there?)

ToS OVA: No, they are still making them... I think. There was supposed to be a total of eight episodes.

They skipped alot of parts to continue the plot in a few episodes. They didn't even include Marble, who kinda helped with the idea of what the Exspheres did to people...
There are rumors that there will be four more episodes after the first four were released.
...Damnit! I want more Zelos!!

Well, Tales of Phantasia was my first game in the Tales of series. The story was really interesting but I didn't really become a fan until I played Tales of Destiny. Destiny was really, really amusing. Lighthearted and fun and yet near the end, the plot becomes surprisingly serious. After a while, I wasn't aware that any other sequels were out so I missed Symphonia. That's pretty much why I don't get why people treat it with so much regard. The next game of the series I played was Legendia, and it pretty much made me cry about 4 times in total. After that game, my standards for any other Tales of games were set pretty high. I expected the next game to be able to carry that kind of story and emotion but then Abyss came and er-- It didn't meet my standards. It felt like a "bishie" fest. I mean, honestly D:

Abyss has a good storyline. And just because there was a 'lack' of females, they still did well.
It also had some really amusing skits.

I think Symphonia attracted a lot of fans to the series. I've seen a lot of people who had Symphonia as their first Tales of game and just decided to play the others afterwards. Maybe that's one more thing as to why it's seemingly the most popular Tales of game.
It also had some really amusing skits.
Haha, all the Tales of skits are amusing. I think the skits are one of the most interesting features in the game.
Well, Abyss was filled with too much drama for me. I mean, all the other Tales of games before and after knew how to be funny and light-hearted, becoming serious only at the appropriate times. But Abyss started off with a very angsty main character. Even his leading lady was full of angst. It just felt like everyone was too angry. I think Abyss is the type of game that shines later on, at about mid-story to end, but seeing as how I lost interest early on, I couldn't bring myself to play up to that point. I guess it wouldn't hurt to try and start the game again.

Wow, I applaud you for one of the few people who actually LIKES Legendia! A lot of people seem to hate it because the battle system was a little backwards when compared to Symphonia, and even Eternia. XD
Like you, Phantasia was my first XD;;

Besides Symphonia, I own every other Tales of... game released in the US thus far but I haven't finished any of the games. =( I haven't really played Tales of the Abyss yet and I would be done with Tales of Legendia if my data would have never gotten deleted. Since then I haven't really been arsed to replay it.

---------------------
It's funny - I practically worship Phantasia (since about '03), but I didn't realize that Tales of Destiny('98) and Destiny II('01) were part of the series until a year after Symphonia came out('04). I had seen them when they first came out, but Fujishima's art scared me back then (I was about eight. It didn't take a lot) so I didn't pay much attention to them back then.
----------------------------
Aaaah... I want the PAL Tales of Eternia.... but it's $50. I can't afford it. T-T
Stupid international shipping prices.
(Yeah, I could buy the Tales of Destiny II game for the PSX for the same price with cheaper shipping, but I'm a handheld junkie.)

Yep. I own the PSP version of Tales of Eternia because it is much cheaper than buying the PS1 version. The funny thing is that I have been wanting to buy Tales of Destiny ever since it originally came out but the funny thing is that I never ended up buying.
