A few bugs but otherwise really good
This is a pretty solid port from the PSP "War of the Lions" version of Final Fantasy Tactics. The graphics look nice, the cutscenes are beautiful, and the sound is as good as ever. Maybe Im just lucky, but I havent experienced any of the slow-downs or glitches that the other reviewers on here have mentioned. I dont have an iPhone 5, so Im not plagued by the screen size issues either. Ive put probably 12 hours into the game so far and its crashed only once in the middle of a battle, but even that wasnt an issue because the game quicksaves any time youre on a menu screen. Just boot the app back up, say "yes" to the prompt, and youre right back to where you left off.
I will say the controls are a little fiddly; it took a little bit of time to get used to the touchscreen. There were at least a couple times where I inadvertantly moved to the wrong space or ended a turn facing the wrong direction. But really, unless you have the coordination of a drunken toddler, youll probably be good to go after a few battles.
I only paid $8 for this because I bought it during Square Enix Christmas sale, but honestly? I probably would have bought it at the full price as well. You could do a lot worse with $15 on the iTunes store.
