Final Fantasy Tactics PSP Remake Available On PSN
See Full ImageOf course, you should already own the UMD game for the PSP but if you don't, you can rectify that grave error right now.
Square Enix has announced that Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions has arrived on the PlayStation Network for the PSP. So yeah, one of the best portable titles ever is now downloadable. Featuring the old-school turn-based strategy combat we fondly remember, 22 jobs, over 400 different abilities, and a fulfilling, politically charged storyline, this remake of the original classic is an absolute gem. And as that classic is my favorite game of all time, I should probably admit I'm heavily biased towards it, and would recommend it to any human alive, despite personal preference. ;) And I think the game held up very well over time; feel free to check out my review of the PSP remake.
Now, about Final Fantasy Tactics 2... If there's one game I want more than a FFVII remake it's FFT2. A true sequel, too. You can make it downloadable if you want; just do it, Square Enix.

at first i thought it was becuase i just did not like strategy rpgs, but i later went on to absolutely love disgaea: hour of darkness. that game had a ton crazy japanese humour and personality. i loved that song by tusami rocks. i think it was called invasion from within. it starts out that eerie organ music then turns into some rock/punk song. absolutely perfect fit for that game.

Just watched a trailer for Atelier Totori. I guess it's releasing this September. Looks good to me. You guys heard of it? o.O

That said, if anyone wants to play FFT on PSP only, buy this version over the PS1 classic now that it's $10.

Gameplay-wise, you have a point, aside from the few added missions and story fillers.

Now, FINALLY, the six PSP Go owners still around can play this game with their friends. Now maybe Square can get around to making Final Fantasy Tactics 2 on the PS3 where everything looks like the animated cutscenes from this game. *sigh*
Hopeless dreams are the worst kind.

Hell, my dream isn't even that crazy and it still hasn't happened.
I would be happy with a HD version of Jet Grind on the PSN.
And would flip if they made a new version.
The same goes for Power Stone 2. I absolutely love that game.

SO much better.
EDIT:
@Ben
I noticed in your review you linked, you talked about the iffy translation. But in the PSP version, as I mentioned earlier in this post, the dialogue was -completely- overhauled -and for the better, I might add. There's new CG added as well with tremendous voice acting!
Honestly, if FFXIII has dialogue written as well as this, it would have been a million times better.

FFT is a brilliant game, but only get this version if PSP is your only option and you care a lot about the story (it has a proper translation). The original is a lot better in terms of gameplay, but not in content. If you want the best version, wait until they release the iPhone and iPad version later this month. It has all the PSP additions and no slowdown.

I loved RPGs and the FF series back then, but just didn't think this was for me. Wonder if I should check it out.
