Final Fantasy Tactics

The Good
Well-thought battle system and nuanced characters personality. The game's job system allows for a wide array of characters' advancement options which are mostly cool and fun to play. Fascinating plot that slowly unravels through many twists. Nicely drawn Super-Deformed graphics.

The Bad
Long, tedious, sometimes stilted and badly translated dialogue that really drag down the atmosphere and very interesting plot. Cryptic characters' "levelling" system and skills selection make for a steep learning curve, some of the skills are crap and some classes feel overpowered. The battles can sometime last very long and be very difficult, this leads to repeating key battles and backtracking a lot. Repetitive music score.

The Bottom Line
Addictive Strategy-Rpg Hybrid, hard to master but even harder to put down.
