[edit] hahahaa vandalism?

"If this game does indeed release for the Xbox 360 it would result in utter failure as the primary fanbase for this series exists in Japan. The Xbox 360 has a japanese install base close to 500,000 and only two of its titles have sold over 100,000 copies in Japan. Thus it can be safely said that the people who decided to place this game on the Xbox 360 are retarded." Sounds very encyclopedic, probably worthy of uncyclopedia. Worth a daily laugh

P.S. I haven't removed it yet. . . . .Sylvanelite (talk) 08:42, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

-- Well, I have removed it, because it's totally opinion based. You can tell by the use of the terms "utter failure" and "retarded". No citations (lawlz), and complete conjecture of a fanboy. ModernTenshi04, 8:56AM 10 January 2008 —Preceding comment was added at 13:58, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Motoi Sakuraba's page

Did sakuraba actually list the site as a 360 game? I checked the page through archive.org and failed to find anything convincing. 68.147.223.143 (talk) 07:38, 13 January 2008 (UTC)


thats why it says until it was removed later, I could hunt down another screencap of it, but I am lazy, and they removed the other screencap I had up PseudoKirby (talk) 01:51, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

here, I cant cite for crap http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/News-96114.aspx

there is your proof, that should be enough PseudoKirby (talk) 01:54, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] North America??

Is there any proof that this is coming out in North America at all? I mean sure the XBOX is way more popular in NA than Japan but that doesn't really cut it as proof, does it. I'll change it so North America isn't mentioned in the release dates. LuGiADude (talk) 10:58, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Interviews have stated that there will be a North American release. Cutepresea (talk) 01:08, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
The references used in the article (such as 1UP Tales of Vesperia News: Bonnie Pink Sings Tales of Vesperia Themes) do explicitly state information regarding North American releases. Additionally, there are full English trailers for the game (Vesperia Trailer). -HeavenlyEire (talk) 06:02, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
As with HeavenlyEire. There were indeed several game online news sites, detailing the U.S version. And yes, for the first time. We'll be receiving the japanese song, instead of a traditional orchestrated japanese song we've been receiving of late. But with english lyrics (see Youtube). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zeta Nova (talk • contribs) 16:02, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Citation Needed

Uh where did Namco Bandai ever say that ToV was going to be released in Japan and the United States on the same day? I can't find anything about it, if there is some Japanese page then fine, but please cite it. This calling it a "fact" without providing a source isn't going to cut it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.223.40.250 (talk) 16:12, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

IGN and Gamespy interviewed an employee and has it on their site. If you go to GameSpy and type in "Tales of Vesperia" it says up front JUNE 24. (Kokayi5)

[edit] Release date

There's seem to be a large amount of confusion and conflicting reports over the release date. Some places list it as TBA, others say September, and others say June. I think if this were an officially made statement reports of the date wouldn't be so varied.

Until there's an actual press release or the site's distinctly mention the release date in an interview or something, and don't just have a date up without it being mentioned in those articles or interviews, I feel the game should be TBA 2008 and stay that way until more reliable info comes.Rpgmonkey (talk) 23:32, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

I think the most accurate label (for the North American version, at least) would be "TBA 2008," as the most recent trailer for the game states "Coming 2008." -HeavenlyEire (talk) 05:40, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
I have an issue with the release date, because it is in Gamespot and i added it, but knowing that this game is an exclussive for the Xbox 360 (an american console) i don't really know what to put at the japan release date. I suppose the game will come first to America and then to Japan, because of the system it is for. For now i left it as it was, TBA 2008 for JP. Andrescapo (talk) 23:58, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Just a note, it's not a very good idea to base when you think it'll be released in relation to other countries' releases based on who made the console, because other Japanese made games for the Xbox 360 such as Blue Dragon or Eternal Sonata (the latter was made by the same company as this game) were released in Japan first. Cutepresea (talk) 22:38, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
I think it best just to leave the dates as TBA until an official release date from Namco, Tales Stuio or Production I.G. comes out. Gamespot, IGN and the others probably got their releases dates from different PR companies, so there is a decent chance that one of those release dates are real, but we have no idea of knowing which one is until we hear an official announcement. --98.223.40.250 (talk) 19:06, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
I added an invisi-line asking that no one edit the date without the date(s) being confirmed from a viable source. These dates from IGN and Gamespot and others need to stop being added when they are not necessarily true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.223.40.250 (talk) 21:41, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Adding U.S Voice Actors

Please do not add the english voice actors (there was a listing for Yuri for a english actor). As we don't have much info on who will be voicing who at this moment. (Zeta Nova) 19:46, 05 June 2008 (UTC).

Yes, please, and if anybody does have proof of any English voice actors besides "it sounds like them," then put it up as a source with the addition. Cutepresea (talk) 00:49, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Seriously? (disregard this...)

Ummmmmm, never mind that, I made a mistake there (about it already being corrected, that is.)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.41.202.126 (talk) 04:03, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
