411mania: The Release List for the Week of August 3, 2009 (Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World)

4/08/2009

411mania talks about this week's game releases. Highlights include MagnaCarta II, Tales of VS., SingStar Queen, and Hearts of Iron III.

On Magna Carta II, 411mania writes: "Even though the title indicates that this is the second MagnaCarta game, it is actually the third in the series, the first being for the PC and the second for the PS2. Unfortunately, Atlus' release of the PS2 sequel a few years ago wasn't very well received - some were impressed with the visuals and a lot of people liked the story, but many found the combat system off and most agreed that the voicework was bad. Luckily, MagnaCarta II features a whole new cast of characters, a new storyline, and a different fighting system, so knowledge of the previous games are not necessary."

While no specific date has been announced for North America, Namco Bandai plans to release the Tales on the Wii sometime this year.

Since Tales of Symphonia: Dawn on the New World will be in stores in just a few months, information about the motion controlled special move shortcuts should be coming.
