The World Ends With You, FFTA2, FF5Advance

[Magus]

Wondering what Square handheld game I should throw away my time and money to next.

I loved War of the Lions and FFTA, I like all I've heard about TWEWY and the style is cool and FF5 still gets heaps of praise for its gameplay. So, thoughts? Which is worth getting?

Or should I stick with Boktai, Days of Ruin and FF6Advance's extra dungeon?

• If you want something completely different, go with TWEWY.
  
• If you want to play a game with the FFT job system, but with a traditional battle system--go with FFV Advance. I've been playing that lately and have been having fun with it.

You just got done playing a FFT game, I'd say it's too soon to play another one. {:3

I just beat FF4Advance last year or so, so, no.

I'm not a FF4 nostalgia hound either.

TWEWY is pretty fun once you build up the required level of ADD to be any good at it, and is a pretty nice change of pace from the standardized rpg.

I haven't played FFTA2 since I hear its pretty much the same thing as FFTA, and I'd rather not deal with some of the stuff in that game again.

The fact FFV is inevitably going to get a DS remake one of these days makes it sort of hard to recommend the gba version, despite my liking it a lot.

I'd go with TWEWY unless you don't mind a shinier version of FFV coming out right after you beat it.

Man. MAN. V. Man.

V is like this shiny diamond in the JRPG rough.

Plus the main character's name is BUTZ.

LULZ.

Don't spend money on any of them if you've got stuff you already have that you should play!

Also, I quite enjoyed TWEWY's OST, Gloomy's NUTS in the BUTZ.

That's kinda what I'm thinking.

But then I won't get any new games for the next three years.

Re: The World Ends With You, FFTA2, FF5Advance

man I have also been on top of FFV Advance. and I have been playing it on top of all of my other games.

you can rename your main character Magus

you can rename him

also all your soldiers that you painstakingly planned out and trained aren't replaced by superheroes 3/4 into the game like in FFT.

In AMERICA, maybe. But not the great father-country of Nippon~ x3

Re: The World Ends With You, FFTA2, FF5Advance

FFV Advance was very fun. I mastered it a while back. FFTA2 is fun at times and annoying at others. I never played TWEWY.

Since I've not played TWEWY, I'd have to recommend FFVA. It doesn't have as many problems as FFTA2 did. (Although FFTA2 was a fun game but it had issues at the same time).

Although it's not on your list, FFVI Advance is better than all of those.

Came across World Ends With You for 25 smackers and jumped at the chance.

I'm kinda of flabbergasted how much information the game throws at you from the start. {:0

I can easily see how Kefka became obsessed with it.

Re: The World Ends With You, FFTA2, FF5Advance

I would say FFV is the best choice but if you liked the first tactics advance and considering you tend to game on the go, FFTA2 seems like it would be easier to pick up and put down than FFV.
