If you listened to the soundtrack you would have heard one instrument in each song that didn’t come through in the game. First, in the original Tales of Symphonia, one of the audio tracks didn’t come through. Tales of Symphonia Chronicles has a handful of improvements in that department. Where there is a graphical discussion, audio comes with it. A couple places in the game also have some gorgeous new animation sequences. On the other hand, a couple of things, like the explosions from blowing up certain enemy bases, don’t look like they got much attention (and, arguably, those needed it the most in the first place). The text and other 2D objects look perfectly HD-sharp, and 3D models have greater detail and smoothness. Spells and other special effects, particularly, often have a brand-new and greatly improved look. Everything definitely looks a step or two sharper and nicer, but some things received a much more detailed treatment in that regard. The first, and most obvious, aspect of this PlayStation 3 remaster is the updated, HD graphics. While I can’t fully review Chronicles without mentioning the value of its two root games, I want to focus mainly on what it alone has to offer. That’s because I absolutely love Tales of Symphonia–but this is not a review of that game (which I’ve already done), or a review of its sequel, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, which is the other half of this package. When Tales of Symphonia Chronicles came out, I jumped on it and pre-ordered the Collector’s Edition right away. It’s no secret–I’ve always been a fan of the Talesseries, and Tales of Symphonia, in particular.
