I was wondering about the specifics of the changes implemented in the PS3 version. Below is the Wikipedia list.
Can people who have imported the PS3 version AND own the XBOX version contribute their knowledge of the changes? I will update this post as I get more information.
An example is where it says town layouts have been "remodeled". Which towns? And in what ways? Thanks, I hope this helps anybody curious.

-Tie-ins with Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike
-New playable character (Patty Fleur)
