PSP Critic Reviews

It feels much more fun and fresh than its predecessor. [Aug 2007, p.83]

Great blast from the past, although the experience mechanics could be a bit better. Overall, 2D has never looked so sweet

These complaints aside, Final Fantasy II is yet another great addition to the PSP's slowly improving library and really shows off the care and attention that Square Enix puts into its remakes. [Aug 2007, p.88]

Exciting turn-based battles that grow tiring from time to time. The strategic elements are the most interesting.

Final Fantasy II is an interesting blast from the past for those die hard FF fanatics. Others may not enjoy the fantasy so much thanks to a very odd leveling system.

A wonderful little game that is a must buy for any Final Fantasy fanatic. The revamped graphics, sounds, story, and additional content make the game a valuable addition to your PSP.

Final Fantasy II is a game that sports a refreshed look and feel, but a noticeable lack of added features and content puts a damper on this celebration.

For those who are interested in some slightly-skewed nostalgia and the freedom to manipulate their characters' skills on a microscopic level, Final Fantasy II is a perfect time sink of RPG pleasure.

The battle system wears thin quicker than expected and the story comes across as a little flimsy, especially when compared to more current Final Fantasy games. Nevertheless, it offers hours of enjoyment.

You'll most likely find that your level of interest in this game will be based more on your love for the Final Fantasy franchise than the quality of the product.
