As visually captivating as this game looks, I'm a little worried on how the battle system will be executed.

I've been watching the few trailers that have been released, and have noticed what looks like a "slot machine" function in the top-left corner of the screen. Any ideas?

Here's a link to one of the trailers: Jump Festa 2007 - Trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9AVyawaMYc)

Well, what I get from the videos so far is that it'll be mostly free roaming. Also, I believe the "slot machine" is Crisis Cores version of the limit break in FFVII. Line them up in the right order and a certain limit break is executed.

Kindom hearts style gameplay i think

As long as the Cait Sith "style" of limit break isn't implemented into the gameplay, I'll be happy. I like having control over what I can do.
