I couldnt find a thread on this so I thought I would post one :)

Info on game is as below

Plot

In Dissidia, there are two gods - Cosmos, the Goddess of Harmony, and Chaos, the God of Destruction. For eons, the two gods raged war against one another, until the balance of power tipped in favor of Chaos. As the forces of evil grow stronger and the war seems to near its end, the few surviving heroes have banded together to strike back at Chaos' minions and restore harmony.

Each of the ten heroes has a storyline, named as a "Destiny Odyssey," following their journey to recover their respective Crystal. Each Destiny Odyssey also parallels, to a certain extent, the events, or at least the spirit, of the storyline in the hero's original game - Terra's story for example, deals with her amnesia and her waning control over her powers, while Cloud's story concerns his indecisiveness and questioning his reason for fighting. The stories also overlap a great deal, with several heroes playing major roles in other heroes' Destiny Odysseys - for example, Cloud assists Terra in her storyline. One by one, the heroes each retrieve their Crystal and defeat their respective villain in battle.

After defeating their enemies, the heroes return to Cosmos, but Chaos appears and incinerates the goddess, and departs back to his realm. With Cosmos gone, her power over the heroes fades and they begin to fade back to their own worlds. However, with the last of her strength inside them, the Crystals are able to keep the heroes from fading and keep them safe, giving them one final chance to strike back at Chaos and restore order.

So obviously its been out for a while in Japan. But its set for release in the USA tomorrow and EU not long after that. I have played the Jap version abit. Although that was more to just play the game rather than enjoy the story.

I am really looking forward to getting my copy through the mail. It also seems that you will be able to play matches online too :)

What are your thoughts ? You looking forward to this as much as I am ?

i played abit of the USA version its pretty good its more like a fighting game with rpg elements to it, from what i played so far the story is not that great maybe it will pick up later in the game
 
Yea I prob should have mentioned that in the OP :p

I still think it will be fun. I used to love playing Ehrgeiz. This is gunna be a lot better since it is just FF characters.
 
I hate international staggered releases. I love my M33 PSP...

I'll definitely be getting this when it comes out, looks pretty awesome.

First thing I'll have gotten for my PSP since FF7: CC...
 
Nice updated graphics. I had a bash on the US ver today really good fun.

I will update the OP with some pictures

Click to expand...

yes it is, saw it in the shop, havent played as cloud yet though.

Been leveling cecil and squall quite a bit, ceceil at lvl37 and squall at lvl28 only got the equipment you get from playing story mode at the moment, nothing special yet.
 
Those screens really show how they butchered FFVII's character designs for Advent Children (which despite what anyone says, was NOT a good movie in any way shape or form).
 
Yeah everyone entitled to their opinion I quite enjoyed it. The character designs werent changed that much either. Primarily cloud but he couldnt exactly wear his soldier uniform forever could he :D.
 
you know on the back of the dissidia manual, it says win a SE goodie bag for entering the code... any idea what the goodie bag contains? :P

managed to get cecil and squall to lvl40s and just completed clouds story once. Not really understanding what the chocobo does either :D
