Most people think symphonia is better when they've never played the OLD OLD tales games (legendia is more like eternia. and supposedly Abyss for the ps2 is similar to symphonia)
Anyways, i've been going through loads of stuff lately:
Ibara (JP PS2) - Cave's newest shmup. Nothing that special
Disgaea 2 (JP PS2) - I can't wait for the US release!!!! And NIS's upgraded graphic engine is much nicer
Grandia 3 (PS2) - BY FAR the best rpg i've played for the ps2 this year, and one of the better ones i've played in quite some time. All of peoples bitches towards it are unwarranted, the game is FANTASTIC!
Tales of Legendia (PS2) - I beat it a few days before getting Grandia 3. But only the main quest. If you're a fan of Tales of Eternia/Destiny 2 on the ps1. Then you'll probably enjoy this game as well. Not to mention it has LOADS to do in it! After beating the game, you unlock the 'character quests', which is pretty much a whole other game in itself
Jade Empire (XBOX) - Picked it up for $9.99 yesterday evening, and i've already put like 3 hours into it. Being a huge fan of KOTOR, i really enjoy this game a lot as well. I'm curious as to why it never got a PC version though.
Dead or Alive 3 (XBOX) - This is my 'filler' game. Whenever i don't have much time to play anything, i'll usually pop this in and play a few rounds.
