Final Fantasy Tactics Advance GBA

Strengths: Fun and Challenging.

Weakness: N/A

Fun and challenging. This game is a little hard to understand. It is complex but fun. I suggest this game to any who like thinking games.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (GBA)

Strengths: Good graphics and sound, good turn-based action

Weakness: Not easy to get into

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance is a port of the PS1 game to the GBA. It's a turn-based action RPG, with good graphics and sound. The gameplay is challenging, though takes a bit to get into. RPG fans should take a look at this game.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance GBA

Strengths: Great combat system and job system

Weakness: Somewhat weak storyline

This is one of my favorite turn-based strategy games. The graphics and sound are pretty (on-par for any Final Fantasy game). Unleash your inner powergamer with the job system and min/max to your heart's delight, and pay attention to the laws you must obey during each game day. The story is kind of weak, but you are playing this game to whip your enemy to shame, not for story, right? There are...

Not that great

Strengths: Not too many. It's a great waste of time

Weakness: Horrible menus, boring law system, job aren't compelling

This game was a complete letdown after Final Fantasy Tactics. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance has a terrible menu system, lame characters, boring classes, a weird law system that puts your characters in prison and it's simply not a fun game. I haven't been able to get past 10 hours before becoming bored with the game. The map design is pretty awful too. I wouldn't recommend it, there are many other...

Great Strategy RPG

Strengths: Great battle system, variety of choices in combat. Sounds great for a GBA game.

Weakness: Storyline is a little wear compared to the original Final Fantasy Tactics.

This is one of the best strategy RPG's out there. Each battle is different from the last and there are endless different tactics you can use in combat. The sprite-like graphics look pretty good for this type of game. Sound effects and music are also good for a Gameboy Advance game. The storyline is fairly interesting, if a little childish. The system of giving characters different jobs with...

Awesome strategy game

Strengths: Truly great strategy gameplay

Weakness: Kind of easy

This is a great handheld game--it'll take you hours and hours to beat, there is a pile of sidequests, and it's also great preperation for Final Fantasy XII, considering it takes place in the same world. However, the game is not quite on the same level as the original Final Fantasy Tactics on the PS1, as the GBA version is quite a bit easier, and the graphics aren't quite as special (though very...

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance GBA

Strengths: Awesome Battles

Weakness: Ehh, none that I can think of

This game was pretty cool. It was one of my first games for the GBA. The battles were very well done, some took a looong time to do. I personally like long tactical battles, if you don't you may want to steer away from this one. You'll miss a great game though.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance GBA

Strengths: Interesting strategy game, storyline, controls, graphics

Weakness: None

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance is an interesting take on the strategy game genre. It plays similar to the original Final Fantasy Tactics for the original Playstation. You control a group of team members that is set on a battlefield and must accomplish a task set at the beginning of the match. Most of the time, these tasks involve rescuing somebody on the map, destroying another group’s leader,...

Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced

Well, if there’s one thing that can’t be denied, it’s the fact that Final Fantasy has been one of the top selling titles of the decade. With well over 25 titles ranging from systems going back to the NES and dating all the way to the PS2, it is obvious that the adventure and fantasy is anything but “final”. One game that came out for the Playstation console a while back was Final...

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

The original Final Fantasy Tactics was one of the finest games for the PlayStation and one of my personal favorites of all time. The gameplay, graphics, sound, and replayability formed a sublime blend that appealed to me more than any other tactical-role-playing game. As you can imagine, I had tremendous expectations for Final Fantasy Tactics Advance for the Game Boy Advance. To my surprise and...
