Quite a departure from the traditional series. It offered a totally different combat system, a new style of characters, a strategy based story, and has spawned some sequels, Final Fantasy XII, FFXII: Revenant Wings, and FF Tactics: A2.

I think the series is okay, but it's not may favorite.

What do you think?

It's okay.

They should have left it at the first. The first was good but advance got boring after awhile and the PSP one is just another shameless squarenix overmilking a game, Kinda like with seven.

Tactics is too boring, and battles take too long.

The battles take too long, because just getting close enough to strike your opponent takes about +13 turns!

When they took Cloud out of Tactics, the series lost me.

I don't want to sound rude, but did you think of using a gunner?
Their min range with their weapon is like eight panels.
And yes, I love FFTA. AND I CANT WAIT UNTIL I GET FFTA2!

I LOVE Balthier, but to me adding him in the latest games was just pointless fanservice meant to play on XII's popularity.

XII is undeniably awesome, but there's just... no way I can love the whole series.
