First off I must say the "300 Maps" touted in the description is total bologna. You have 12 maps with 30 waves of enemies you have to defend off which gives you the illustrious "300 Maps". Believe me though 12 maps is more than enough because to perfect each map expect to spend 2 hours + to get just that right combination of defenders.
This game is a Tower Defense game with characters from the Final Fantasy Tactics series. Each character or upgrade item costs a certain amount of Gil and with each enemy you defeat you get a number of Gil back. Saving money is the key as you get a bonus after clearing the wave depending on the number of crystals you saved from the enemies. Pretty simple. Set up your defenders and defeat the oncoming waves. Simple yet addicting..."

Game Tangents | What Are You Playing? is a new Game Tangents original series designed to show you the games we are playing during the week that we merely talk about in our weekly podcasts. In Episode 2, we cover some of the games we talked about in Game Tangents Podcast Episode 82. (Sonic Adventure, Suikoden)
Thanks for the comments! Those look like some good titles. Never heard of Tentacles, but I looked it up and it looks unique. I'm anxious to play Wolfenstein: The New Order in the future. Last night I played a Xbox 360 indie title called Light's End and Dark Souls to help me sleep.
Fallout: New Vegas on PS3 right now. I actually got it at launch but only did one playthrough. Should've been more given the millions of hours put into Fallout 3.
My co-host Mark on our weekly podcast has been playing New Vegas, and we were talking about it on the show a few weeks back. Brings back some good memories.
I've been playing Fallout new vegas for the past few weeks too, although I installed a couple of mods to change it up a bit (project nevada, nevada skies,etc).
NHL 14 (PS3) and Watchdogs , Killzone SF and Strider for PS4 atm.. but i always switch when it comes to my PS4. :)
