Well, I know there's a few Vesperia fans here, so I thought I'd post this.

Tales of Vesperia has sold so well in Japan, that they've begun the production of a movie. It will be a prequel, taking place when Yuri and Flynn worked together as knights. All the characters from the game will make an appearance.

This shot made my day.
Yuri and Flynn
Why doesn't she look any younger?
Yuri
Raven...has no beard?! GASP!
Flynn
Flynn again

Not much is known about it yet, except that it will be released Fall of this year.

Now for the PS3 release.

As many know, a young pirate girl, exclusively for the PS3 will be able to join the party. Patty Fruel, who was apparently referenced too a few times in the original release. Also, Flynn, who was not playable in the XBOX360 release, will join your party for the final dungeon. There is also a new Mystic arte for Flynn and Yuri. Neat. It has been announced that the script will also be extended slightly, and more side quests added. Also, most parts of the game that were not voiced will be voiced in the PS3 release. (However, due to it being released on the PS3, many Tales fans who bought a 360 for Vesperia are enraged, and have begun burning their products. They need some serious anger management. ) This is also set for a Fall '09 release in JP, and will most likely come to the US as well.

Also, a quick bonus.
Yuri Lowel (Along with Luke (ToA) Ritcher (ToS2) and the main character in Tales of Hearts) has been confirmed for the first Tales fighting game Tales of VS, which is planned for unknown release.

Anyways, that's just some Tales nerd giving you some juicy info. Discuss.

That kind of hurts to think about a movie of that. That also really irks me about the ps3 release, mainly because I don't own one and I don't plan on buying one. Why does the ps3 always get the good stuff when it comes to good games?

Well, I think it was originally just supposed to be a remake for the PS3, but then they decided to add more content and such.

From what I heard, Vesperia is coming to PS3 in Japan Only. They're probably going to do the same thing they did with Symphonia and keep the American Versions exclusive to anything other than Playstation. I saw the Japanese cover for Vesperia. It DOES NOT have "Only on Xbox 360" on it.

Don't really care if Vesperia is coming to PS3. Namco is probably using Trial and Error on Vesperia just as they did with Eternal Sonata. At least Wii owners have Tales of Graces to enjoy with.

Oh, I'm not mad about the release, I just want more to do in that game because the final boss is hard and I need to train more. I hope whatever is added to the PS3 will be available for download on the 360.

It would be nice for Namco to release a "special edition" of Vesperia that will feature all of PS3's content. It' probably going to be multiple discs.
