Genre(s) Action role-playing

Similar to many fighting games, the aim is for the player to reduce their opponent’s HP to zero. A character's offensive (and, to a lesser extent, defensive) power is shown in numerical form called BP or "Brave Points". Both characters start out with a set amount of BP, and each must steal BP from their opponent by attacking them with the basic "BP attack" to add it to their own total and gain the upper hand. Players can then use the "HP attack" to cause direct damage to their opponent; HP damage is equal to the player's current amount of Brave. However, once an HP attack is used, the character's own BP is reduced to 0 and then slowly recovers to its starting amount. A character whose BP total has been depleted (past 0 BP and into the negatives) is forced into "Break mode", where, aside from not being able to cause HP or BP damage, all attacks made against them cause critical damage, and the opponent gets all of the BP in the "Brave Pool" (a number that can be seen at the bottom of the screen) massively boosting their BP amount.

One main feature of the combat system is the "EX Gauge", which can be filled in a variety of ways, such as inflicting damage on opponents, taking damage from opponents, and obtaining items scattered around the field of play. Once the EX Gauge is filled, the character can enter their "EX Mode", significantly increasing their power and enabling new attacks, including the "EX Burst", an unavoidable special attack similar to the Limit Break mechanic seen in many games in the series.

I'm quite excited, even though I'm familiar with very few of these characters.

What a sausage fest. Just Terra? What about Yuffie?

i think you can pretend Kuja is a girl and get away with it. :3

Tidus is basically a chick. Oh, and fuck Tidus.

O! I've always been a huge FF fan. :)
Excitement!

No one from FFT? This is the worst game since Final Fantasy Mystic Quest.

Although FFT was the best game in the series, Mystic Quest was fucking awesome.

Final Fantasy Dissdia is on PSP, so they probably did'nt have that much space to simulate all of there movements and attacks.

That's like saying that this is the most depressing thing since euphoric joy.
Every game is the worst game since FFMQ.

Ultimecia is such a babe.

Wish I had a PSP for this. Oh well.
