Tales of Xillia is the most awaited game of the year for me. I've been waiting years, since 2011, and finally 3 days before my birthday, it will be released. I've pre-ordered this amazing Collector's edition every Tales fan, and even if you're not particularly a Tales fan, will ABSOLUTELY LOVE! This is definitely going to be a great game, I hope many people are encouraged to buy this game, it will ultimately lead to more Tales of titles being released in North America. If you're thinking about getting this game you should also get the latest Tales title, Tales of Graces f, which was released last year for the PS3 as well.
Shouldn't you wait before the game comes out before you give it a 9 rating? I'm sure that this game will be amazing and get well over a 9 rating by fans but rating it before it comes out makes no sense at all.
