I like the new FF1 & 2 title logos for the PSP and the FF4 title logo for DS.
As for the FF12 International Zodiac Job System, I wonder what that game will be like.
They’ve also announced a new "cross over" FF game for the PSP. YAY!
Dissidia – Final Fantasy teaser site (http://www.square-enix.co.jp/dissidia/). So far there is little detail on this title. I still want it!
Dissidia Articals…

Dissidia looks interesting.
I’m still holding my judgments on FFXIII and his babies…
And it’s a shame we’ll probably never get Zodiac Job System over here.
– English voices, with possible English text. The English text thing has only been written about by Game Watch, without further confirmation.
– 16:9 mode.
– The big one, the addition of the job system. The jobs are: White mage, black mage, red mage, time mage, knight, monk, breaker, shikaree, uhlan, samurai, engineer and archer.
— Shikaree uses light armor and daggers, uhlan uses spears, samurai uses katanas, breaker uses hammers, time mage can apparently use crossbows, and monk has the barehanded augments in addition to licenses for wooden poles.
– It was impossible to change jobs once they were chosen in the demo. It remains to be seen whether there will be a method to change jobs in the final version or not. UPDATE: More sources are saying that you cannot change your job once it is chosen.
– The game can be sped up by pressing L1. Supposedly, this works like the fast forward mode in Chrono Cross. Comments have said that it can be too fast for normal play, but it’s wonderful for some of the longer sequences like summoning or performing mist knacks.
– Guests and summons can now be controlled manually, and you are also able to modify summons’ gambits.
– Treasures on the field have been moved around, and rare items are now easier to obtain.
– Cure is now AoE, like Cura and Curada. This change is likely due to the fact that you will only have one person who is capable of using white magic. Curaga is probably going to be changed, too.
– There’s a new water magic spell called Aqua.
– "Trial" mode has been added, in which you can fight against mobs, summons, rare monsters, etc.
— You can load your own save data.
— There are 100 maps.
— Each map has various enemies and treasures on it, though they are supposedly pretty small in size.
— Every 10 levels, you may receive items/gil and have the ability to save.
– Some new gambits were added, such as "enemy has item" and "facing two or more enemies" (there are also three and four enemy variations of this gambit)
–New stuff from 5/16 magazines–
– Magic has been powered up. Like cure, fire is AoE, too. From this, we can probably assume that all first-level single-target magic will become AoE.
– No new mob hunts, story or bosses. Still waiting for further confirmation on this.
– Strongest Halberd/Zodiac Spear will be easier to obtain
– New game plus has been added
Release date is August 9.
Dissidia would be cool too. Shame I don’t have a PSP. xD
