Namco's 'Tales' Poll...
...Shows Symphonia to be Very Popular!

Namco has been running a special poll on its website recently in order to find out who is the most popular character in its immensely successful Tales series that includes Tales of Phantasia on the SNES and GBA as well as the newly released Tales of Symphonia on the GameCube. The list contained characters from the three original PlayStation titles, the GameCube offering - Symphonia, the PSone port of Phantasia and the original SNES version as well. Overall, even though the PSone's Tales of Destiny took the top slot, the Nintendo versions managed to fill up twelve out of the Top 20 positions. What is quite surprising is that the characters from Tales of Symphonia, despite only being around for a limited amount of time, have already become hugely popular amongst loyal fans of the franchise.
