one of my fav games of all time

wondering if they're making one for PS2

or if there's a game that can live up to its glory

i know FFTA is out but ive heard it's kinda kiddish

Tactic Ogre is the battle system of FF:T on steroids, however the graphics are rather ugly since it was orginally a SNES game. It is a really good game if you liked FF:T.

i heard a long time ago that they are making one for the ps2 but i wouldnt hold my breath. ffta is great though. but nothing can beat the original fft. its one of my favorite games ever.

I would LOVE a FF:T on ps2. I guess we'll have to settle for FF:TA for now.

there's a tactics Advanced on PS2?

Mr.Deflok

Nope, just for the GBA, and it's fantastic. Penny Arcade dubbed it the best "Just one more game" and then ".... shit it's 4 am!" game of 2003.

I played FFT for the PSX... it was too hard for me and I didn't understand it at all at the time.

Kinda makes me sad I gave away my PSX and all the games now that I hear how great of a game it was. Would like to go back and play it now with all the knowledge I now have of gaming.

ok, misunderstanding on my part

Oh, no doubt that there's no beating the original FFT, but FFTA is definately a good game. The graphics are kiddish and stuff, but you'll get over it really fast I promise. Oh, and the 4 a.m. thing is SOOOOO true.

I know nothing about one for PS2, but in my circle of friends, I'm sure I would have heard something if there was a reliable rumor out there. So, I doubt there'll be one any time soon, :'(.

if you like fft


you will likely like orge battle march of the black queen


good luck finding it in the us there were a very small number of copies made

Disgaea: Hour of Darkness for the PS2 is supposed to be a very good game in the same realm.

If you just like Tactics games and don't care about the setting, Front Mission 3 for PSX is Awesome, and Front Mission 4 for the PS2 is coming out this year. You should check them out if you like Mechs, and tactics games.

Tactics Advanced is a fanastic game, there is somthing missing, and its not as good as the original, but its worthy of the tactics name.

I played the FFT on PSX and god its slow
Every battle takes around 20 min, add in the random enounters, it will take hours to get through a couple of missions.
Also I find the monsters to be to difficult. And my chemists are pretty useless.

Is the game getting better after the first few missions? Coz my patience is running out.

The first 5 some-odd battles suck really hard because you only have squires, knights and chemists. As soon as you get monks, archers with bows and black mages the game becomes quite fun.

FRONT MISSION OWNZ YOU!!

charlesesl

thanx, guess i ll take to it then.

Btw, to all of the Front Mission fans out there. I really dont find alot of tactics in that game. Its basically move in range and hit your enemy until they drop dead. Shotgun and machine gun to damage to all part while rifle, missle and melee do damage to a single part. Mortar thing is pretty useless. And that s about all there is to that game.

I'm a massive fan of the first Front Mission, I played through it without a translation, it is that good. The third Front Mission was a lot of fun but it kept locking up a 1/3 of the way through the game. *stupid video card not displaying right* I also loved Zenogears and Armored Core... okay I have a massive Mech fetish; I can admit it and move on

Ironic, I just loaded up tactics yesterday and played the first 2 missions, I would play but I really dont have the patience anymore Im not sure why I guess I cant sit in the same place for 60 hours like I did before. Most of the time when I get a game I play and want to beat it in 4 days or dont play it at all. All I do rememeber is summoners in tactics haha loved them.

[Spoiler maybe]



















Haha, my favorite thing about that game that I remember was when I was fighting the final boss and his minions on the airship (I didnt have a book or anything) And im using the 5 knight/darkknight characters on the airship and then I attack him for a while and 3 of my guys are dead only 2 I have are the guy in black armor and the girl knight and the girl knights charmed. Well im thinking Im susposed to run to the edge of the airship after hes nearly dead so then the gay thing charms my girl knight and she stands there and then my dark knight runs to the plank on the airship thinking im susposed to run away haha. Well then my girl knight attacks the boss while charmed and kills him im like wtf? and then like haha.

Also I never figured out, how do the deep dungeons item find work? I spent forever trying to figure it out but all I ever got was potions ^^
