That and a Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together remake and I will die a happy woman.

I truly hope SquareEnix have the common sense not to fuck with a legendary game like Final Fantasy Tactics. An updated port for the PSP is incredible news so let us hope they handle this properly and not turn it into a bullshit mockery that ports so often turn out to be. It would be nice if the PSP version offers a bit more flash for the visuals, but if not, use of the original graphics will do just nicely. This is one of the extremely rare cases where even I would say graphics don't mean a damn when you're talking about a game like Tactics.

Fuck yes, this is exactly it. I'm a little worried about the cutscenes though, because (1) It'll give them an excuse to change around some plot details, and (2) The style of the game itself might make things look a little too cartoony. FFT was brilliant in using in game sprites to act out gritty dialogue, and I really want to see that kind of atmosphere kept intact. But I guess I saw this coming, anyhow. Although i'm glad the translations going to be fixed. (I'll miss "l...i...t...t...l...e....m...o...n...e...y" and "Defeat Dycedarg's Elder Brother!" a lot though )

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Sometimes the flash doesn't load up, if that happens, try downloading the japanese flash player or just restart the page.

Anyway, i'm impressed with the trailer now that we have a good quality version of it. I like the 'cross-hatch' effect in the cutscenes as well, but i'm hoping they don't sacrifice vibrant colors for an antique feel. It's also confirmed that they will remaster the entire soundtrack, damn.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well, there is a new piano version of 'Hero's theme' in the Jump Fiesta trailer. I think some of the main tunes will have a complete overhaul whereas others will simply be tweaked as you said.

Dunno if this has been posted or not, but here are all of the current famitsu scans. They renamed the Oracle to "Auger"..anyone know what that means in context to the job class itself?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I really like the vibrancy of the japanese boxart, but it's just...too damn busy. Get rid of some job classes, put maybe one or two antagonists in place (Vormav, Weigraf, etc.) and, uh, put the entire centre focus for Ch.3 and 4 in there as well (Alma) and we have a winner.

Aside from that it's pretty good, sure beats out the old PSX boxart.
