Character designs were done by Kosuke Fujishima, more known for his work on Ah! My Godess!. ToP was considered great back then, having a real-time linear motion battle system. It was then remade for the PSX, and is considered the best version out of all its platforms. A remake for the GBA was done, but was a bit unfavorable due to some problems with the battle system. A PSP version of it has recently been released, featuring the game in full-voice. Aside from this, Geneon Entertainment also made a 4-episode OVA of the game entitled, "Tales of Phantasia: The Animation". This particular Tales has gone through the most number of remakes in the history of Tales, and yet not one of them actually stood out so much. The game, however, does feature a lovable cast of characters, who are, up until now, part of most Tales Series fans' top favorites. For those interested, Absolute Zero has released an English patch for the PSX version, and take it from us, it's working great :D. >> Storyline   >>Long before the present storyline of the game, the Demon Lord Dhaos wreaked havoc in the land of Aselia.

The PSX version however, features the Progressive LMBS (P-LMBS), which basically makes use of Tales of Destiny's system...

The graphics were not that good, but of course, this is understandable because I was playing the SFC version. One thing I didn't like about this game was the annoyingly high encounter rate...
