• EoFF Giveaway: Final Fantasy Tactics for the iOS

    So, it appears that the generous Square-Enix have given the EoFF Staff another prize to give away, and I have been given the opportunity to set up this competition for them. This time, the prize up for grabs being Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions for iOS!


    There have been a number of additions and improvements made in this update of the game. So whether this will be your first time playing the Tactics spin-offs, or if you’re a veteran of the games – this is the version to get, as it is the best way to experience Final Fantasy Tactics yet! These improvements include:

    • Refined Graphics - All of the game's unit graphics have been redrawn in high-resolution. Don't miss this chance to play the sharpest, most beautiful FINAL FANTASY TACTICS yet!
    • Improved Draw Speeds - The graphic drawing processes have been optimized for mobile devices. Say goodbye to choppy motion and crash bugs, and play with the quickest, smoothest abilities effects and animations to date!
    • iCloud Support - A save slot which allows game data to be saved to iCloud has been added. It is now possible to migrate game data across multiple devices.


    Now that you’re all undoubtedly excited for the chance to play Final Fantasy Tactics on your iPhone or iPad, you’ll want to know the details of how to enter with a chance to win.

    You have two weeks to submit a paragraph or two telling us what your favourite class from Final Fantasy Tactics is, and why? If you haven’t played any of the Tactics games before, which class would you most like to play, and why? It’s as simple as posting that in this thread to enter!

    There will be further tasks posted in the thread over the two weeks for you to complete to increase your chances of winning. Make sure you check back in with the thread so you don’t miss out.

    Remember, this is for an iOS copy of the game. Do make sure you have a device you're able to redeem this prize on before you enter!

    Good luck to you all!

      I don't have an iphone so no game for me. I really want to play this game however. I could by the PS1 version, but War of the Lions is superior and I'd rather play the superior than the inferior.

      Okay guys! Time for Optional Task #1 to increase your chances to win! If you complete this task you will get your name put in the draw one more time.

      Draw a picture of the class (race is yours to decide!) you described in your post. MS Paint, hand-drawn; Poorly drawn, masterpiece... you decide! Just get your art on and submit a picture.

      Since archers are such a worthless class, and I got to decide the race, I made it a big doofy elephant. I believe this is a canon race in FFT.

      Boy is my face red. I should have seen this coming.

      I'd prefer if the races were ones that existed in Ivalice, but I suppose I can't impose that rule now. xD

      Seamlessly converted to a big doofy Nu Mou, since they're also slow and grey and technically exist in Ivalice.

      I haven't actually played this game for a significant amount of time, but I am pretty sure that the class that I would like to try out the most would be ninja, because well, ninjas. Do I really need to say more?

      Picture coming soon

      -edit- and here it is
      A ninja sneaking around. She is a bit hard to see, but that's to be expected. She is a ninja, after all. She is probably a human, but no one really knows because ninjas are mysterious.

      I love Archers, because I love how pitiful they are. I like watching them fire their little worthless bows as they take up a slot that could and should be long to a much more powerful and more effective class. They can't really take hits, and actually can't really do anything.

      Plus, you can put them at really high elevations where they can do their awful, nearly scandalously bad damage from great distances, if you happen to be fighting in the one level of the game that actually allows you to do that.

      (SPOILER)Actually, I enjoy playing the Mime class. They add a unique spin to battle strategies when you can copy the flow of battle.

      Nothing wrong with the PS1 version.

      @Mullet Nice try.

      Personally I take the White Mage.

      Being able to help others when needed and having the power to do so in a world where there are bad people makes me feel quite unique and special. Its something to give and I would really like to have that role...

      Monk.

      Pounding monsters to bits with my bare hands? Not only yes, but HELL yes!

      Did you know that if you give a Monk the "Dual Wield" ability, they'll strike twice? Now that's some catastrophic beatdowns, that is. If you dig around the Deep Dungeon long enough, you can find some serious Monk-usable duds, and a Bracer is my accessory of choice.

      BACK ON THE STREETS
      HAD THE GUTS, GOT THE GLORY
      WENT THE DISTANCE,

      JUST A MAN WITH THE WILL TO SURVIVE!

      My favourite class is the Gladiator (Advance, I give no smurfs) because not only do I enjoy seeing Bangaa in little leather shorts and a gimpy mask, but also because Strikeback and Ultima Sword is basically death destroyer of worlds imho.

      I'm actually surprised Paul is implying he has an IOS device. Does this mean he finally has a phone from the 21st century?

      Another extra task for yet another chance to win! :3

      Make a new thread and five new posts in the Final Fantasy Tactics subforum. Post links back in this thread.
