The guy who makes the Ultimaniax combo videos did one for Xillia... uh, it's chock full of spoilers, so if you don't want to know, don't watch it.

I didn't find it as impressive as the Vesperia Ultimaniax. For one thing, Xillia uses the Hearts/Graces-like system where you can combo anything into anything as long as you have CC, so it's much less impressive than the Vesperia-style games where you had to follow specific rules in your combos. And because of the game's link system a lot of the combos are multi-person combos - getting infinite combos with two characters in a Tales game is childs play.

Then again maybe I'm just being too harsh on it because I was disappointed with the game itself. There aren't any joke/neta combos like in Vesperia Ultimaniax, but the game doesn't have any cameo costumes or fun stuff like that in the first place (well, unless you count DLC). And it's funny seeing all the comments on the video, half are asking when the Director's Cut is coming out (seemingly a foregone conclusion by most of the fandom's estimate) and the other half is talking about how bad the story was (it seems most of the fandom thinks the gameplay was great but the story sucked, and I'd have to agree).
