A brief look at one of the best JRPG franchises ever

While I haven’t spent nearly as much time withTales of Xilliaas I’ve wanted (I’ll blame the phenomenalDragon’s Crownand my newfound obsession withSaltybet) I’m still nonetheless impressed with the latest installment of the beloved Tales franchise. As always the battle engine is quite superb and, if not for the Grandia series, easily the best in the business.

All that aside, the fine folks over at Sony’s PS Access channel have put together a lovely video highlighting some of the fabled franchise’s greatest entries in celebration of the release ofTales of Xillia. While the video is aimed at the series’ UK releases, each title in the video has made an appearance stateside in one form or another. Either way, it’s a lovely trip down memory lane.
