                                                                      A year has passed since the fifty-year-war. The old king has died, and the Prince, who was much too young, was going to be taking the throne. All of the soldiers who served in the war later aligned themselves with Duke Goltanna. Duke Goltanna was in a war against Duke Larg, and they are both under a banner of a lion. Goltanna under the black lion, Larg under the white. The stage is set for what is going to be forever remembered as the War of the Lions.

The first thing you notice when you pop in the UMD is the beautiful CG scenes. Everything is so detailed and the characters, although they look like sprites, look fantastic. Everything looks wonderful in the game. The music in the game, like the other Final Fantasy games, is fantastic. Everywhere you go there is a different melody, whether you are fighting or just simply purchasing equipment, everything looks wonderful. And let’s not forget the voice acting. Unlike the PS version, this time, we get great voice acting for the new Final Fantasy game.

The battle system is identical to Fire Emblem’s. You have a group of characters fighting a group of characters on a grid map. You move a couple of squares and attack when you are near an enemy. You receive experience points (EXP) and Job Points (JP) for every successful action. And no, moving does not count. When receive 100 EXP, your character is bumped up one level. Job Points allow you to “purchase” abilities for your Job, and your party members get a small portion for that same class, while you get the whole thing.

So what are “jobs” exactly? Well they are like classes. If you’ve played Final Fantasy before, you’ll know exactly what they are. They are things like Black Mage, White Mage, Monk, Warrior, etc. The list goes on and on. There are endless possibilities to tweak your party and make the best party you can make.

The downside to battling is the dying part. Sure you can revive your allies, but you have a certain amount of time before they turn into crystals. And when they do, they are gone forever. Then you have to get a new character on the team from the Warrior’s Guild, and that person will start at level 1. So you really don’t want to have a level 1 character when everyone else is in the high 70’s. And when the main character, Ramza, dies then it is game over.

The downside to jobs is that it takes almost forever just to learn one ability. And if you have a chemist on your party, you cannot use any other items until you learn them. So you’ll be stuck using potions for a long time before you can start using elixirs and more.

 You use the analog stick to control the camera and there are only four different view points.  There also is no zoom in option or anything.

In multiplayer mode, you can either battle your friends, or finish a quest. There is no infrastructure so don’t expect to be playing online. You need a friend with a PSP and another copy of FF Tactics: War of the Lions to play.

The learning curve is about an hour long. The game thinks that you have played the original PS version and makes it difficult from start to finish. Although there are tutorials, you’ll still die a couple times on your first battle.

Overall the game is great. There are a few noticeable problems but the game is still incredibly fun to play. The game offers up to 60+ hours of gameplay so this will stay in your PSP for a while to play it daily. If you are looking for a great game to play, or just something to pass the time, I highly recommend you pick up a free download of Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions.
