"Rather than trying to adapt the Final Fantasy characters into some existing fighting game formula, the designers of Dissidia seem to have attempted to create an original fighting engine around the Final Fantasy characters -- at least the characters as they'd probably combat one-another in a Tetsuya Nomura movie." Yes, your characters will perform all the acrobatic moves that you'd find in Advent Children ... or the upcoming FFXIII games.
"Dissidia also manages to push the PSP to new visual heights. The game is a visual feast, with detailed combatant models, and plenty of lighting effects. Definitely a step above Crisis Core, which already had some thinking that the PSP really was a portable PS2." Really, it looks better than Crisis Core? That game was already pushing the boundaries of the PSP!

At last I can say - I think the PSP has fully come into its own in terms of graphical potential. Took three years, but hey. It's cool, nevertheless.

oh okay, so it IS a fighter/brawler game. graphics look outstanding, the gameplay sounds promising and engaging..i just wonder if the level designs will be up to par, and be varied enough for the retail version

I need to see the game in motion to actually be able to judge the graphics myself. The trailer didn't show enough except for CG scenes.
So I will reserve judgment...especially since they're saying it's as pretty as Crisis Core. I'm VERY skeptical of that being true...
Then again it IS Square-Enix.

A console version of this would be nice, or Reverse Remote Play so PSP UMB games in the PSP could be played on the PS3,.

wow, one of the most positive view in a long time!
How do you go ABOVE Crisis Core's graphic? Honestly, I own the Japanese version and it's the most beautiful looking game on PSP at this point.
Now I need to invest on a PSP slim!
