FFTA2 FTW:
If you like Tactics for ps1, and Tactics advanced for GBA, then you'll love this game. Its a perfect continuation. I've only had it a couple weeks and i've already logged 90+ hours playing. There is more jobs and 2 more races. There is over 300 missions. There is a Normal and Hard mode to choose from as well. Much more updates, very worth playing. Can't wait for more to come out!
Great gameplay and amazing depth:
Every time Square Enix release a game, I'm amazed by the quality. The first FFTA was one of my favourite GBA apps. It was an engrossing, deep strategy game, but what I loved was that it lived to the handheld's greatest strength; it was deep, but you could still pick it up and play for a few minutes at a time. FFTA2 has kept everything I loved about FFTA, and eliminated all of the features I found annoying; The graphics are essentially the same, but they were always charming to begin with; The music is still... more info
Good game overall:
PROS:
- Better graphics (particularly dialogue pictures and spell effects)
- more jobs/weapons
- more challenging (fighting king blue for the first time will shock you)
- option to dispatch a person or go on quest yourself (for a lot of quests you use to could only dispatch someone in FFTA)
- dealing more damage from enemies behind/sides than from the front
- more play time (as if the one on the GBA didn't have enough) CONS:
- storyline is not even close to... more info
Starts a little slow but takes off:
I had difficulty starting up, it takes quite a bit of effort to get through the early missions with almost no equipment and no skills. But at a certain point, you've crossed a power threshold, and the game just takes off and it's a lot more fun.
