Namco Bandai's summer Tales surprise is a big one indeed!

PS3 owners will get some of this later this year!
The Tales series looks like it will be making PlayStation 3 its new home for the next batch of major releases. Based off leaked info from this week's issue of Jump, PS3 will be getting two Tales games. And not to be left out, PSP will be getting a new Tales game of its own.
(Gaming blog Hachimaki reports that this information has been confirmed by some in-the-know Tales fans.)
One of the PS3 games isn't actually new. Namco Bandai will be bringing Wii's Tales of Graces to PS3. The game will carry the name Tales of Graces F when it arrives this Winter.
PS3 players can expect a number of improvements, including added special attacks for battle, a new outfit for pigtailed heroine Sophie, and the expected visual improvements .
The other PS3 Tales game is currently nameless. The magazine describes it simply as "New Tales." While not sharing any details, the magazine did post a first image illustration.
For PSP, Namco Bandai is readying Tales of the World Radiant Mythology 3. This latest Tales offshoot will feature appearances by over 80 Tales series characters, most notably Tales of Graces hero Aspel. The PSP game is scheduled for release in 2011.
If Aspel is your thing, you can also look forward to an upcoming password that makes Aspel appear in Tales of Phantasia X, complete with voice.

I had to wonder why Namco Bandai release enhanced versions for the PS3 of Graces and previously Vesperia months after then were released for the Wii and Xbox 360.

Because ps3 is namco's favourite. Look at the past, we should know they release more on ps2.

It's not like this is the first time they do that. This is the 4th time if you count Phantasia.

@Exelx then why did they defect by releasing games that should have come out on the PlayStation 3 on other consoles first?

I think Nintendo paid for Tales of Graces (or maybe politely asked), along with Tatsunoko Vs Capcom, and maybe Monster Hunter 3.
I can't be certain if Microsoft paid, but I think they bought Vesperia as a temporary exclusive.

@xeno
i think nintendo act as first party here. Well, if they released on ps3 first, then no new content right?
i'm start to feel that is their habit, probably
