gamrReview: Seven years after its release, the PSP is definitely showing the signs of a platform in the twilight of its lifecycle. With PlayStation Vita just around the corner, attention has shifted away from Sony’s first foray into handheld gaming. Nevertheless, 2011 brought a number of great PSP titles that deserve recognition, including classic remakes, improved sequels, and long-awaited resurrections.
Final Fantasy XVI demonstrates how the franchise has matured since the release of its first M-rated installment, Final Fantasy Type-0.
DS: “I hate that Type-0 is forgotten among the Final Fantasy games. While not the strongest entry, its mature story makes it stand out from the others. And even though Final Fantasy now has three rated M games — including Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin and Final Fantasy XVI, — Type-0 will always have the crown of being the first, and arguably the darkest.”
i agree that it is indeed dark, but it has its issues.
and i feel like the ending is what makes it really a dark final fantasy game.
the rest is more or less war where teenagers fight.
This game was the epitome of the FF dark age pretty much, was hella boring and the gameplay was tedious. I'm glad SE got the series back on track
well, it was more of a spin off rly.
especially after they dropped the fabula nova crystalis stuff
I actually really love this game, the main problem however was that the entire story and personality of the characters, was in the lore that you need to dig very deep to find and external materials outside of the game, honestly it has my favorite lore in the franchise, I wish they had made the game more story focused, god it would have been a masterpiece
When it comes to the best PlayStation 1 RPGs, we’ve all heard Final Fantasy this, Chrono Chross that. Two problems that emerge when a steady stream of blockbusters are released on a system is is that some of the very good RPGs are crowded out and some games are less great in the eyes of players who experienced the best games on the system.
Some cool games right there.. I will add threads of fate it was an excellent action RPG
That's a good list, I would add Koudelka, such a great Horror Jrpg and the precursor to the shadow hearts games
Agreed. I'd love another Matsuno directed Square-Enix game especially if it took place in Ivalice.
If they made a Parasite Eve set in NYC that was kinda open world-ish, I'd play every second of it
They need to stop waisting money on their yearly bombs(quiet man, left alive,balan wonderland) and just remake the first Parasite Eve. Just use the FF7R gameplay(pretty much the next generation PE combat if you think about it) and engine and you're good to go.
Most anticipated game: Final Fantasy Type 0... DAMN right! lol, i just hope Square Enix brings it over :(
