When one thinks of Final Fantasy, the mind usually conjures up epic battles and solid RPG gameplay, or even tactical warfare. Does one ever think of tower defense-styled gameplay? Probably not. Square has ventured toward creating something a bit different with the first-ever Xbox Live Arcade release for the franchise with Final Fantasy: Crystal Defenders. Though it isn’t as strategically diverse as a glut of the other, more popularized tower defense titles, it offers a decent challenge and satisfying throwback to the days of gorgeous sprites and thinking before you make your next move. Kupo-po!
