Avatar of Justice Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 http://www.destructoid.com/elephant//ul/4370-noscale-tactics_psp_03.jpg That's a hot picture. The retranslation of FFT I've always wanted. Too bad it's on PSP. Well the PSP will eventually be cheap, and I'll still be alive. Although I'd rather play the game on something that isn't a portable.

Oddllama Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 ah ahhhh lame. I want this. Versus play? aaaahhhhh... It's the only thing on the PSP I care about. Why? Come on Square... you have games on DS... aaaahhhh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkwing Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 So is this a new game or another port with added features. So I guess you didn't read the first post, huh? i thought i laid out the information pretty bluntly.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar of Justice Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 It's the only thing on the PSP I care about. Why? Probably because the PSP uses a processor similar to the original Playstation, thus saving them the trouble of completely recoding FF Tactics. Although in order for my answer to make sense, Square would have to be coding in a lot of assembly instead of something sane like mostly C and C++. Does anyone know anymore about this?

Alpine Flame Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 That's true. Coding for the DS is ALOT harder than programming for the PSP. The PSP language (I forget the specific name) is really really close to that which was used with the original playstation, of course tweaked a bit for more flashy stuff and whatnot.

The Pezman Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 According to teh RPGamer, it's not yet slated to make an appearance stateside. So.... just thought you all oughta know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordBreaker Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Well...the original Final Fantasy Tactics introduced me to the world of Stratagy RPGs, so I'm sure I'm going to get this one once it gets released in English. Hopefully, the somewhat questionable localization of the original gets improved in the PSP port. I remember getting REALLY confused with the dialogue at times. I'm all for new characters and stuff, but in the same time I fear that Balthier and that FFTA dude will screw up the original storyline and the Ivalice timeline continuity. I hear that Balthier has a major role in FFT's story so I'm kind of curious of how Square-Enix is approaching his addition. I mean...Cloud's addition was pretty cool and it didn't screw up anything whatsoever since his backstory was explained via time travel. But as for Balthier, we all know that he's actually from Ivalice of a different time or dimension. Same thing with the FFTA guy. The FFTA series takes place in a difference universe according to the creators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamoh Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Farlem. Expect Mustadio to be nixed for Balthier methinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSU Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Farlem.Expect Mustadio to be nixed for Balthier methinks. Mustadio's on the box art, so he's probably in. I really don't know how Balthier will work with this though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkwing Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 Farlem.Expect Mustadio to be nixed for Balthier methinks. I'm pretty sure they didnt REMOVE anything. And having two special characters with guns will make the game even easier methinks. No matter how much i loved this game i always thought it was way too easy.

Probably just a secret character, right? Much like Cloud's appearance? Probably not a serious storyline addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
