It hasn’t dropped yet in Japan but the latest (and last?) Final Fantasy for PlayStation2 just joined the ranks of 5 other games to ever earn a perfect 40 in Famitsu. The other games in this cadre are Ocarina (N64), Soul Caliber (DC), Vagrant Story (PS1), Zelda: Windwaker (GC), Nintendogs (DS). I own all of these but Vagrant Story. I really enjoyed the demo disk of FFXII that came with DragonQuest VIII, playing it through multiple times. It reminds me of a cross between FF: XI Online and KOTOR.

Just don’t forget to drink your potion.
