Final Fantasy XII

 

Well here we are again. Number 12.  Same old same old: Androgynous brat fights to save the world by traveling deep into some dungeons, monsters approach only to stand around as we hack them to death, talking rabbits perform magic and giant chickens run around.  It must be Final Fantasy because in what other franchise is that considered same old same old.  This version is actually the first game to use gambits which has finally programming fun.   

This iteration should be pretty good.  I was looking at the box and it is rated T for Teen because of the following “alcohol reference, partial nudity, and suggestive themes” which means we will probably get to see some pixilated boobs attached to someone who is drunk.  Read this guide and I will be sure to point it out when it happens.

Final Fantasy 12 is a bit of a departure from the other 11.5 (or however the frick you calculate FFX-2) in that it is actually a political revolution simulator.
