On this episode, the guys and Jordan gush over Final Fantasy Tactics. This retro tactical rpg for the PS1 started a spin off series that never quite held up to its first installment. The game follows Ramza, half brother to the patriarch of the noble Beoulve family and his adopted lowborn brother, Delita.


The adventure is a morally ambiguous Shakespearean tale wrapped in deep layers of gameplay. The character customization is addictive and makes each playthrough of this PS1 title a unique experience. Jordan has started over 30 serious playthroughs of this game and this probably wasn't his last!


We even considered making this a 2-part episode because there is just too much content in this RPG to cover in a single episode. It's a must play and lives in the upper echelons of Final Fantasy games, Playstation 1 titles, and tactical RPGs alike.


Come see where it lands in the league and follow along to see where it ends up!
