I only know two things about Tales of Vesperia: one, that most of my friends that played it really, really enjoyed it, and two, that Yuri is freaking hot. Yeah, I'm jizzing over a fictional character again, and if you don't like it, shut up and read this.
At any rate, I really ought to tear the shrinkwrap off that game and give it a go, but for people who loved it this ought to come as thrilling news: the game is getting its own film adaption. Kadokawa pictures will adapt the best selling game into a theatrical film. Kanta Kamei will sit in the directorial chair, while seiyuu Kosuke Toriumi will voice one of the characters. If you played Persona 3, you remember him as the voice of Junpei.
More details will likely be along on this soon (this month's Kinema Junpō magazine will make the announcement official). Whether we'll see an English release of the film is hard to say, but there's always fansubs if we're left hanging.

Definitely play this Colette, It is somewhat generic, but the Tales games are just too good.
Sorry.
Don't give up on your beliefs! There are no women on the internet! BELIEVE AGAIN!
Spam happy nood friendly rofl.... played the same game?
@LarkOhiya: That's funny. I only ever tried playing as one of the other characters once throughout the whole time I played the game. I ALWAYS played as Yuri :)
@SakuChan After school, the flag pole, be there.
Vic Mignogna is Junpei, sister. He is also Zagi in Tales of Vesperia. :)
Seriously, I really want to play that game.
Seriously, what do girls see in such androgynous guys? You don't see guys going after the manly women.
And this is good, I enjoyed Vesperia quite a bit.
No, no he doesn't. He also has a very slender build and face. If he had boobs, but nothing else was changed about him, then there'd be no doubt he was actually female.
On the other hand, maybe big breasted androgynous men are the latest fad in Japan these days.
you guys need to take a level in weeaboo.
Yuri is the first tales character who actually seems, well, clever. That changes the whole experience for me. When you're sitting around going, "I wish someone would just do this obvious thing.", he'll actually do it. Anyway, it's refreshing, even if the other characters I've found so far are stereotypes.
