    The story of FINAL FANTASY XII takes place in a world called "Ivalice," in an age when magic was commonplace and airships plied the skies, crowding out the heavens. A world of many races, the humes, bangaa, viera and, of course, moogles, all call Ivalice home. War was on the horizon.

    To sum up, I think FFXII is the game that's been needed in the series for a while now. Something that mixes up the gameplay, without removing anything that you would expect from a Final Fantasy game. I've put in a good fifty or so hours into the game before writing this review, and I feel like I've only scratched the surface. For the Final Fantasy fan this is a game not to be missed. Read more

Whether or not the series needed reinventing is a matter for debate. Some may prefer the more storyline-driven approach, or a more character driven approach, or turn-based random battles, etc. It cannot be denied though, that this is very much a quality game, and is an early contender for game of the year 2007, at least in Europe ...

    When the occupying Archadian forces established a new consul in Dalmasca's Royal City of Rabanastre, it caught the attention of Vaan, an urchin living on the streets. To Vaan, the Empire was a hated enemy who had taken the life of his brother-his last surviving family member. Vaan hatched a plan to sneak into the castle housing the new consul and pay him a surprise visit of sorts. Once inside, he thought to unburden the consul of one or two of his treasures. But befor...
