  • Some great ideas; drifters are welcome; deep class and job system.
  • That job system is completely wasted on puzzle-style mission designs; story is awful; vitality points are a poor design choice.
  • Wild ARMs XF has potential, but poor mission design and some odd design choices make it mediocre at best.

  • Abstract:  The PlayStation Portable has become quite the role-playing gamer's system as of late. Square Enix's Crisis Core is making big waves right now, but the string of good quality strategy RPGs have been the real highlight. Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of...

  • Thrilling musical score; excellent character customization options; fun combat.
  • Town sequences arent too exciting; vitality system takes some getting used to.
  • The Wild ARMs series hasnt ever given Final Fantasy much to worry about, but has still carved out a niche for itself thanks to its blend of fantasy and western aesthetics. Think something along the lines of the "Trigun" anime with more of an emphasis ...
