I’ll admit.. at one point in my life, during the Saturn and Dreamcast days, I was an uber Sega fanboy. I owned close to 80 different Dreamcast games before the PlayStation 2 came along and wiped it out. Make no mistake though, fanboy or not, there’s a reason why Sega no longer makes manufactures consoles. They’ve made some very, VERY unwise decisions in their past. The Sega Saturn’s sudden release, anyone? Although Sega turned a nice profit during their first quarter this year, the PlayStation 3 (or any console for that matter) might not be a major factor in their future as they shift to a new identity for the once proud and mighty company.

With THREE brand new entries in the ‘Tales Of’ series recently being announced (In Japan), the PlayStation brand is receiving plenty of ‘Tales Of’ Love (In Japan). If a comment recently by made Namco Bandai holds any truth though, it seems fans of the series could be in luck.
