Final Fantasy

The appearance of Final Fantasy on the iPad could potentially offer gamers the best way to experience the classic RPG title. Guiding your party on their perilous adventure is currently a fiddly experience on the iPhone thanks to some spotty touch-screen controls. You have to manually move your four heroes across the land via the on-screen d-pad, and also delve into conversations/dungeons via contextual buttons. There's something frustratingly static about it all, as the title begins to lose its grace and flow due to the inefficiency of the control scheme. The iPad's greater scale will pay dividends here, especially if you utilize a stylus to aid your quest. This will offer greater precision, and should begin to eliminate the aspects of the current app that have gotten fans riled up. If all else fails, a simple tweak to the controls could further make this an attractive iPad prospect.
