Caltrops - Rants





	[quote name="Entropy Stew"][quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"]Final Fantasy Tactics, right? No. Here's my tactical squad gaming experience: X-COM: Probably the best game ever made. X-COM II: If I wanted to play as Black Manta, I'd go get the new Aquaman game. X-COM: Apocalypse: I know this game got shit on, but I liked it. Breach II: Loved it. Can recommend it without hesitation, regardless of how old it is. Breach III: Fucking terrible. Still bitter about this one. Was to the Breach franchise as Clooney was to Batman's. Jagged Alliance: Liked it. Jagged Alliance II: Liked it, inexplicably stopped playing it and haven't yet been back. Will someday. Fallout Tactics: Got it recently. It's sitting on my hard drive, installed and everything, just been too busy to start it. Freedom Force: HGLUAHGLUA And while technically RPGs, they had some squad-based tactics to 'em: BG1, BG2, Icewind Dale, Icewind Dale II: BG2 more than the others, but liked them all. Fallout, Fallout II: Solid. Shadows Over Riva: Loved it. So anyway, I like having complete control over my guys, like in X-COM 1 & 2. Names, abilities, qualifications, etc. I appreciate JA's funny, but wish I had an option to make people from scratch alongside Mike and Tex and everyone. While I prefer that, it's not required. I just did a search for FFT. The first thing I'm wondering is whether or not <a href="http://www.squaresoft.com/web/games/fft/larg-char.html">this clown</a> has a chip on his shoulder regarding Hal Jordan and not himself, being the first Green Lantern on Earth. If I ignored FFT, it's probably because there's no place I trust for console reviews, except for this forum. Do you give it a thumbs-up? the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey![/quote] When I have money, I will buy the the GB Advance specifically because it has a FFT sequel that will eventually get ported to America. Maybe. If it isn't, <i>I'll import the Japanese version</i>. -/ES/-[/quote]
