This remake is what should have been in the first version of FF12. You can control the summons and the guest characters as well. There’s a Trial Mode where you can obtain better equipment, and a few secret bosses. Also, when you press “L2″ (IIRC), you can “fast forward” or “speed up” the game play ^_^. I did a written review of it, here’s the link: http://www.thebitbag.com/2007/08/16/review-final-fantasy-xii-international-zodiac-job-system/
