The game is great, though it takes a while to get used to. (At least for me.) Anyway, the presentation is nice, the character's moves are cool and a treat to look at, and best of all, coming from someone who loves to listen to video game music (especially RPGs) no words can describe how awesome the soundtrack is in this game. And great little treat for all Final Fantasy fans that really fits nicely for your PSP system.

It's not a bad game. You got your fighting moves, your favorite characters, great music to battle to. The one thing that I think sucks is the amount of combos. There's I think 3 to choose from if your Cloud and that's the only character I choose since I've only played 1 Final Fantasy. I expected more of the lines of wherever I direction I point my character he/she swings in that direction, that would've added more skill and less restraint to the game's movesets. It could've added more playability and not repetition. But for a portable game to just take on the go and not dedicate your hours to, it's not a bad buy.

Love: It has all tha main bad and good guys from the Final Fantasy Universe (ah Memories). It's very easy to learn (if you played Kingdom Hearts 1 or 2 that is) but difficult to master (this is a game that is like Soul Calinur, where there are different fighting styles that are actually different). Like: I can recongize most of the American voice actors from previous games/other franchises. Tons of replay ability, and online play. Hate: The campaign mode can get tiresome fast, it is very repetitive. I hate 2 American vioce actors for the characters : Zidane and Ultimecia. Zidane is too high pitched and not cocky/heroic/genuine while Ultimecia doesn't have her accent that she had in her game (FF8).bI also hate how the american vioce actors pronounce some of the characters names: Tidus, Ultimecia, and Zidane. The last thing I hate is about Terra. In every game that is/was made with CG animation they haave her with Blonde hair when she's supposed to have Green Hair (check out her first game for the snes FF3 or the GBA remake FF6) I wanted to buy this game because it sounded like fun (and it is) to get to see all the characters that I love'd and hated from years past.Read full review
Dissidia is a boss game! It has all my favorite FF Characters in it and I can choose to be evil or good.

The clash between good and evil has been a rather redundant archetype throughout gaming history. Not much has changed, but with the coming of Dissidia came a deviation from the norm that was the good versus evil archetype. However, it was not just the driving plot that deserves praise, but the amount of artistic superiority that towers over traditional fighting games. Overall Plot Rating: * * * * * Unlike the typical game, Dissidia Final Fantasy included a cast taken from the entire series of Final Fantasy games - Most of which had conflicting personae. As for the villains, the fluctuation amongst them is just as apparent as it is for the protagonists. Some villains embrace the traditional motive of simply returning everything to "the darkness whence it came", while others serve only their own benefit. Many twists and turns take place during the storyline as well - An especially shocking one for the protagonists. Though the storyline does end up returning to the traditional battle between good and evil at this point, the backstory makes up for it. Acting: * * * * While the storyline has drive in itself, it can be quite difficult for one to follow along considering the mediocre voice acting performed in the game. The grammar and sentence structure only serves to make the characters to look and sound incompetent when they're not. However, with such a notable cast ranging from Johnny Yong Bosch (Vash the Stampede; Trigun) to Yuri Lowenthal (Sasuke Uchida; Naruto), fans who have been attentive to their favorite voice actors will not be disappointed. Graphics: * * * * * Dissidia doesn't disappoint when it comes to graphic display. The environments in-game are flawless in an artistic context. Even though some of them aren't completely accurate recreations of the original, it doesn't distract from just how grand they are. The fact that the characters can also interact with the stages serve to eliminate opponents in more creative ways, in comparison to other games such as Mortal Kombat where sometimes the most one can do is throw a person through a breakable wall. Gameplay: * * * * The configuration of the gameplay mechanics is too simplistic for most gamers who are used to entering 6-10 button long sequences in order to unleash a powerful technique. However, because characters develop differently in Dissidia compared to other fighting games, it makes for interesting competition when an opponents movesets are as unpredictable as the potential changes in a single stage. The ad-hoc network gameplay also handles very well in Dissidia. The actions performed between two players are completely in-sync with the other, and prevents any exploitation in lag-time. Soundtrack: * * * * * Though Nobuo Uematsu is no longer working as a main composer for the series, an adequate successor - Takeharu Ishimoto - has taken the helm, and did not fail to deliver for Dissidia. Though many of the songs had been remastered by Ishimoto, fans will be pleased as the tracks had not been butchered too much, and preserves the ambience of many of them. Overall: * * * * * Dissidia Final Fantasy does not disappoint the fans of the series in too many ways. Despite the poor dubbing and repetitive, but flexible gameplay, Dissidia has revolutionized the approach to role-playing games; Not much can be improved otherwise. For fans of the series, Dissidia is a milestone in the series and is a must-have in a collection. --------- Annotated [kensredemption] @ PS.comRead full review
