No illusions, from the outset this is a review of a superb game.
Final Fantasy Tactics was superb ten years ago on the PlayStation, and it's still superb today in its long-awaited PSP remake. Yes, sorry - I don't really feel like I can keep you in suspense over this one, posing the 'ah ha, but is Final Fantasy Tactics really any good?' question and dragging it out for the next thousand words. Last, and certainly not least of the three, I would choose Final Fantasy Tactics - arguably the finest spin-off game to a major franchise the industry has ever produced.
I'd choose the oddly paced but nonetheless magnificant Xenogears. I'd choose Chrono Cross, stunning follow-up to the SNES classic Chrono Trigger.
Wearing my JRPG Nerd Hat (yes, I own a JRPG Nerd Hat - I wove it myself from the hair of the denizens of Eurogamers' JRPG Otaku group, in fact), I'd probably pick out three games as being the Holy Trinity of titles which have been, thus far, denied to us miserable Europeans.
