what's so special about tales of vesperia
---

1) the internet has been complaining about Tales of Vesperia's 360 exclusivity for a decade
2) it's probably the most notable game stuck in 360 limbo
---

Vesperia is the best Tales game.
---

What other games of actual significance are still trapped in 360 limbo? Only other one I could think of until recently was Dead Rising 1 but that's on PC now. My 360 RROD'd immediately after I finished Vesperia and I basically felt nothing.
---

I think Vesperia is the last major 360 exclusive without a rerelease. It may have been surpassed by Berseria this year, but it's still an excellent entry into the franchise.

I really hope it gets added to the BC list.
---

N+, Culdcept Saga and Beautiful Katamari are the only other games I can think of, and they're part of highly iterative series that reuse assets, ideas, or entire levels in later games.
---

What are must have 360 games for someone who doesn't have Xbone?

I'll probably won't get this anyways, but it'd nice to know.

Tales of Vesperia and Culdcept Saga are the only 360 games I've ever played

(still worth it)

Halo 3, Reach & 4, Gears of War 1-3.

Lost Odyssey's there too, but eh. Dead Rising 2 DLC is still exclusive I think. Original Saints Row. Crackdown's kinda fun. Earth Defense Force 2017, but you might as well just play the new one.

Might actually jump on this deal. Mines been overheating lately and might just be am easier solution
---

Might do this since mine is shitting the bed. For instance, I have to plug the internet adapter in mine (yeah, that old) into the controller port so it works. Would be nice to not do that.
---

Hmm, I'll grab one if I can to use as a TV box.
---

What are the differences between the different 360 versions? Is this one worth getting?

The main character is incredible and was so popular he was retired from the official Tales of popularity polls I think. The gameplay is really fun and the cast is great. It's basically the best RPG of the last generation that hasn't been rereleased

already played vesperia when I borrowed a friends 360

now I have the japanese PS3 version if I ever want to play it again
