An ancient conflict. A clash among royal families. A kidnapped princess. And a brave soldier who may be a country's only chance for lasting peace - but not before blood has been shed in the name of justice. Assemble your army and train them well. Go into battle with your skills at their sharpest and decimate the enemy before they get to you first. Destroy your adversary's troops without remorse or hesitation as you engage in bloody and decisive warfare. Defend Ivalice against the forces that would tear it apart in Final Fantasy Tactics.

1998 January 29- North American Release.
Not quite the classic gameplay that has pushed the Final Fantasy series to the sucess it has now, this game is still one of the best I have ever played. The story is quite gripping, the graphics are very well done, and the gameplay was interesting enough to keep my attention. The game is long, however, and can take quite a while to beat. It brings back the class system seen in Final Fantasy III (NES) and Final Fantasy V (SNES). Among the differences are the battles, which are more of a stragitic campain than a standard RPG 'Attack, use magic, use item...) without thought. It is a fairly difficult game, but good to play. The enemies' levels increase in ratio to yours.

Still one of the best Strategy RPGs out there. If you're a fan of SRPGs... well I'm sure you've played this already. Chances are, this is the game that made you a fan of the genre as it was one of the first great SRPGs to be brought to the US.
