Hmmm... I saw the gaffe on Bamco's forums where they listed ToHR. This coupled with that and #jrpgvita, plus Namco's recent generosity makes me wonder...
As far as the game itself goes, I've played the import multiple times and it's nowhere near as terrible as it's made out to be (at least in my opinion). Yes, it's hideous. Yes, the animation is garbage. Yes, it's outsourced. Yes, they gave the music to the Tales of Innocence composer for him to ruin. But the game itself succeeds on its own terms. Honestly, my only major complaint with it is that enemies will recover in the air during aerial combos instead of falling to the ground like in other Tales games. It removed a wrinkle of strategy from aerial combat in other Tales games.
I was initially against the direction they took the remake in, but I was pleasantly surprised with the final product.
I'd be happy to answer anyone else's questions about the game or elaborate on what I said above.
Hearts supposedly has one of the best tales stories with Baba saying it's his favourite.
Should be good.
The story in Tales of Hearts is one of the best in the series in my opinion. Easily my second favorite behind Symphonia, if not tied with it.
