Reader Cheun Ngen Chong found the control scheme for Square Enix's upcoming Final Fantasy Dissidia and translated it into English for us. (The original file can be found at levelup.cn.) The left shoulder button is used for locking on, while the right shoulder button is used for defense. There are two kinds of attacks, one attacking HP and one attacking BP. This is an interesting change for the genre, and we can't wait to see how well it works when actually in our hands.

Yeah this seems pretty complex...I'm a little afraid. Why don't they just have a simple control layout like Tekken?

I don't it would be more like a fighter, but I guess if your targeting the FF fanbase an FF fighting would be blasphemous. Which is very annoying for people who like fighters and RPGs. It's starting to not look like a must buy in my eyes, maybe if they have online of some kind.

While I'm on the subject why the hell do people not include online in fighters on the PSP. It's a damn fighter, it won't tax a server, yo cheap a$$ companies.

Brawler =/= fighting game

This is what we have to know . Not even SSMB is a real fighter ... or The Warriors ... its a brawler .

Its still one of my must-haves , but I see that some people are really discouraged by the control scheme ...
