    Hey lads.

    I'm on a bit of JRPG binge atm, and I've set my sights on Tales of Vesparia.
    I adored Tales of Symphonia on The Cube, and I guess I must have missed the Pal release of Vesparia...:rolleyes: So I'm really interested in giving it a shot.

    But getting this game locally, and for a decent price even, it may as well be a faberge egg. A cursory glance at amazon even, it's insane. 50 quid...used!? For a game that came out in 09' :mad: A lot of people point towards games on demand, with it's "reasonable" 29.99 price point, but I'm not so sure.

    So, I figure that if any of you guys actually own this game, you must have gone through some hoops to get it and I'd love to have your input. Should I bite the bullet and get it off xbox live, or do you think it's worth holding out for a physical copy?

    after a quick search of the usual places online I use, the games on demand price is actually a good price for once :eek:

    It's likely actually cheaper if you choose the option to buy with ms points, and pick up the needed points from one of the cheap sites used by many on here

    It's a cult JRPG that had a limited print run - always going to command a high price. I have it, got it at launch and paid €50 for it, so I don't think it's an outrageous price, but like you say it's available on Xbox Live so that's probably keeping the prices from going even higher.

    Shamefully enough, I haven't played it. It's at the top of my pile now but Borderlands, FFIV and Battlefield and keeping me away from it.

    Ah feck anyway. I hate not physically owning games, especially stuff like RPGS.
    That's a good idea about topping up with MS points though...I have like 700 lying around.

    Am tempted by it myself it's been on my to get list for ages, with 700 points already a 2100 points card will sort you as the game is 2560, I really hate not having a disc but the way things are going the days of owning a disc are fading :(

    You're about a week late on this I'm afraid as it went through a small re-print it seems recently as Zavvi, Shopto and a few others all had new copies for sale last week but are all showing as sold out again unfortunately
