As most of us have heard so far, Square is porting Playstation greatest hit Final Fantasy Tactics to the GBA, but more games are scheduled to follow.  Along with FFT, Square is scheduling a release of a Secret of Mana game, whether it be an entirely new game or a port of the original, a Chocobo game, and a new Final Fantasy game called Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicle.  The Secret of Mana game and the Final Fantasy game are both due in Spring 2003 while the FFT Port is scheduled to be released this winter.

Plans are now in the works for a new RPG Maker for Game Boy Advance.  Details are kinda sketchy, but it sounds like the version may be inferior to current versions, but the ability to play it whenever would make quite a bonus for us RPG makin' geeks.  A playstation 2 version (set to be released in December) is also set to be shipped to the states, and is to be USB-Keyboard compatible for easy scripting.  This is definitely a big leap forward for people who make their own RPGs, and hopefully it brings more into the mix.  I know I might have to try that PS2 version...

Some spells (Cokatrice, Bomb, Mage) were missing descriptions, so I fixed them. Carry on.

The PS2 port of Skies of Arcadia has been cancelled. The game, however, will still be ported to the GameCube.
