    In the wake of Final Fantasy XII's success, Square Enix has ported its first Ivalice game, Final Fantasy Tactics, to the PSP with a new translation, additional gameplay features, and a slew of bonus characters and quests. In the role of a noble family's exiled son, you must conquer the corrupt and, at times, demonically-possessed aristocracy with only a small band of fellow warriors and the conviction to do what's right.
