New FMV cutscenes with voice acting was added alongside an expanded aspect ratio, a couple new job classes, and a smattering of new game content. In 2007, ten years after its debut on the PlayStation in 1997, Final Fantasy Tactics was remade for the PSP as FF T: War of the Lions. Here’s why I won’t be firing up my PSP version of FF Tactics ever again. And then, thirty hours in, I walked away to play another-and so far much better-PSP remake of a classic TRPG, Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together. And last year, I finally picked up the PSP update of the cult classic tactical RPG Final Fantasy: War of the Lions. Here at The Old School Game Vault, I’ve gone back and played and reviewed Final Fantasy IV and Final Fantasy VI.

I’ve had conversations with friends about what the Final Fantasy musical RPG that never was would have looked like (I would totally play that-good or bad, it would be hilarious). I came into the series with VII and have played everything since besides the MMOs and the two sequels to the lackluster XIII.
