I'm just glad it's not Vaan, personally I found him to be the most annoying character in FFXII.

The way you say that, it's as if Shantotto is paired with Gabranth. *sigh* I Vaan were included, I'dn't mind the FFTA2 version, based on the wallpaper; looks rather cool there (plus maybe an allusion to the Luso-back-to-back-with-a-judge thing).

This is cool (as judges strike me cool even though I haven't played through the FFTA-based games), but even if other cool things are nerfed, the available-as-a-pure-download thing could open up DLCharacters (which should be done for SSBB, if only for Mewtwo (and mayhap Dr.(/"Doc") Mario).

At least it's not Vann. I was hoping for Balthier, but oh well.

Well, Gabranth would count as the villain here, so we may yet see a hero from FFXII. I'm thinking it will probably be either Basch do to his connection with him, or perhaps Balthier since he's cool like that.

Forgive me for not being all that familiar with FF (I played Crisis Core and that's it), but what is the big appeal with this game? I've watched the videos and watched everyone talk about how great it looks, but all I see is characters jumping around slashing at each other. Is that all there is to this game, fighting? Is this so anticipated simply because it brings together a bunch of FF characters from different games? It looks pretty, but the mechanics looks like frantic button-mashing. Is there more to it?

well Zippon,the reason this game is so EPIC,AWESOME! I CANT WAIT AAAAH!OMG! *slaps himself* ahem, its bcause we are FF fans,theres been starting games of FF since the 80s till now FF12 (FF13 coming),every game with always a different new story and world, this things are things we love so much, now it seems Square-Enix is making this game. to understand how epic great this game is gonna be you have to play some more of FF. otherwise you will see it like a simple fighting game wich its natural if you only played CC.this game was specially made for the fans.

You'd have to play Kingdom Hearts to have an appreciation for how the combat works in an RPG sense.

Yes, it is only fighting. That is the gameplay.

But you have to think of it in terms of an entire game made up of boss battles in a battle system akin to KH.

Two words: Nostalgia overload!

For any longtime FF fanboy/fangirl, this game is a must buy. Period.

Well, it is pretty cool having Gabranth in Dissidia. But I'm still ticked off about Shantotto and Gabranth not being paired with there enemies. What the hell, Square-Enix?!

Gabranth is the villain... So maybe there's still a chance for a XII hero. Balthier! \m/

Basch or Ashe. Hell, ANYBODY but Vaan. Please no Vaan.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Basch take Gabranth's armor and post as Judge as per his request at the end of the game? Maybe that's Basch, just in Gabranth's armor. I mean, Cosmos and Shantotto don't seem too concerned up there. Maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part, I'm holding out for Dr. Cid or Vayne to be the villain.

k so we all know that they are haveing at least one guy from FF XI-XII, but would it be possible for Square-enix to have put in more secret characters from all the side games like Tactics, Crisis Core, or the Kingdom Hearts series.

I mean i know its right on the release date and all but do you think its possible theyd keep them secret concerning those games poularity??

Im Voteing for Prince Noctis from FF-XIII :P
