Tales of Phantasia was the first in a long series of games from Namco (now Namco Bandai), and many fans that have followed the series from day one still cling to the original as the best. Of course, Americans were deprived of this original title for over a decade.

That all changed when Nintendo published the Game Boy Advance port of the game in the US. This, the third (but not final) incarnation of Tales of Phantasia, was released in March of 2006. We took our sweet time with it, but thanks to the mighty work of Neal Chandran, we've produced a review. You may be surprised by what he has to say.
