Final Fantasy Tactics Advance anticipation thread.
I am soooooooo psyched about this game. The Game Informer reviewer estimated 150 hours doing around 300 quests (you can send your people to do them while you go on on your quest, but I want to do them all myself). Is this going to be an awesome title or what?!

Yup, awsome story. I have and beat it for the PSX. I hear there was going to be a FFT2 but havent heard anything for a while. You can get Cloud (from FF7) in FFT for the PSX version so hopefully you can get it in the advance version. 150 hours is possible if you do all the side quests and really upgrade your guys to the max but to beat the main part of the game, its probley between 40 to 60 hours.

I loved Tactics on the PSone. I did get Cloud, but you get him so late in the game its tough to get him leveled up. Can't wait for the GBA version and I hope its got some hidden characters from the main series. I bought mine through the Nintendo website bundle so hopefully I won't have to wait too long to get it.

Isn't FFTA going to be different from FFT for PSX? I thought I read somewhere that the storyline is different but the gameplay is similar or something like that. Can someone post some game details or clarify that?

One of my favs on the PSOne. I am going to buy a GBA Player for my GC so I can play this.

This is definitely a completely different game from the PSOne version. So even if you played it on the PSOne, buy it for the GBA! 
As for going on all the side quests yourself GatorDeb...I'm not sure it really works out so that you can do that. A lot of the time it requires certain abilities or job skills that your main character won't possess. But don't worry, sending your subsidiary guys on the side quests will not detract from your enjoyment of the game!

. Before it was a greatest hits title, this game was OOP and would go for $150-$200 on eBay.
