Hard to get excited when we haven't even gotten it on the Wii in the US...
<optimism>Maybe after the Vesperia project, they decided to wait until the final version is done before localising it.</optimism>

What does the "f" stands for?
"Final", probably.
 
Apparently the F stands for "Future", according to the Narikiri Dungeon X blog.

The new part of the game takes place half a year after the ending, and it seems to be three script books worth of content. And there's new artes and stuff, as expected.
 
Huh. That sounds like a lot of content. I didn't really find myself wondering what happened after the ending when I beat it, but now I'm intrigued. Maybe I'll get it.
 
I feel like its still possible that this or even the Wii version will be released here. I would like to try Graces as Vesperia kind of left a bad taste in my mouth.

great music on the site... and the famitsu link doesn't work for me :(
Copy and Paste famitsu links.

Looks like they're pulling a Fire Emblem 3 on Graces.

Yeah, it is just up-scaled right?

Looks more like Eternal Sonata. I do prefer the Vesperia look because it's like a playable anime.
 
Still don't understand what namco was thinking putting tales of graces on the wii. But namco has been on a roll with numerous questionable publishing and marketing decisions which I think has much more to do with incompetence. I don't expect them to bring tales series with a cheap translation because that is also too complicated.
 
SoPhie's new outfit is pretty cool. *sigh* Still hurts that we are not getting any edition. I think is time to give in and import the one for Wii :/

Should I bother getting my hopes up for an English release?
Not really. But I can't help to hope myself. But I know I'm gonna get dissapointed.
So I guess its time to try and learn Japanese and import the games.

Chara-design is awful. It's not the same artist as it was for Vesperia ?
Vesperia's character designer is Kousuke Fujishima, and Graces' is Mutsumi Inomata.

Is playing with a translation guide out of the question? Since PS3 is region-free, this is a very viable alternative to an official localization, I think.

They look very clean, doubt they are video captures, not to mention I don't think these scenes were in the trailer, I have to watch it again, don't remember exactly.

Yeah, that's an option I guess. I'm just not sure I care enough to bother.

Not yet, anyway.
 
I see either jaggies or jpg compression. I hope it's the latter. The clean image quality is really the only thing going for the visuals over the Wii version.

They're sword blades attached to her arm. Well it makes more sense than her holding normal swords :P

f stands for FUCK YOU WEST U AINT GETTING ANYTHING HUAHAHA

I hear the fan translation is going well...even if it's not this version.

:lol

It looks rather nice.
It took Namco long enough to realise that the PlayStation format was the one to get more sales though...

Ah well they know now!
 
Battles don't look anything special...

...but outside battles non-cutscenes it looks pretty clean:

Very nice of that taiwanese website sharing them.

On the ToPNDX blog it was stated that it stands for Future, makes sense since the whole addition to this port seems to take part after the original game's story.
