Japan gets PS3 demo for Tales of Vesperia on July 13th photo

Perhaps you've heard about the new changes to the PS3 version of Tales of Vesperia and wanted to check them out for yourself. If you can wait a week and read a bit of Japanese, you're in luck.

PS3 owners will finally get a taste of last year's Xbox 360 RPG Tales of Vesperia, as a demo is set to go live in Japan on July 13th, says AndriaSang. As for what to expect in the demo, we can only guess from some screenshots from Dengeki. It looks like our cute pirate Patty will get some play time, though. 

Tales of Vesperia will be released on September 17th, so this will serve as a nice early preview. Get a taste next week by logging onto the Japanese PlayStation Store and grabbing this demo.

[thanks, Ronald]

I'll get it, play the hell out of it, then cry over the lack of a US release date.

I gotta say she looks pretty damn stupid, unless by some magical chance she's not a terrible character I'm pretty happy I got the version without her.

what I'm wondering, is if they were adding a new playable teammate..why not use some of the underused characters already in the story? Like Gauche and Droite?
