A Final Fantasy spin-off with real merit. [Mar 2009, p.126]
Dissidia certainly isn't without its faults. The rate of descent once airborne is too slow, and the combat fundamentals occasionally feel jerky compared to more traditional and refined fighters. But these minor criticisms aside, it's a very accomplished fighter that's worth your time - whether you're a fighter nut or Final Fantasy fan.
One of the best Psp exclusives. Fresh, deep, suitable for quick play or intense game sessions. Beat'em up mechanics works well, and the rpg aspect add variety and strategical issues. Almost perfect, artistically and technically speaking too.

I liked all the references to all the other final fantasy **** combat is enjoyable but the stages are awful characters are always floating because of this you are always doing air moves even when you want to do a ground move it gets really annoying especially for some **** stages with cellings and walls were so **** annoying ,it was awful to play in them some times you won't see anything because of the cellings in a stage. Alot of the items and weapons are so time consuming to get. You need to get lucky to get alot of them. The story mode was fun at first but all the characters go through the same scenarios with showing the power of friendship which makes the cut scenes boring to watch. The storymode should have had more action and less talking the game takes itself too seriously and goes on for far too long. I got bored and frustrated at the end so i didn't finish it. It was fun for sometime but it gets boring after a while.

Dissidia: Final Fantasy manages to marry at least two completely disparate genres into one of the best games of the year. Not only is it exciting and full of fast-paced action, but it's also deep and full of replay value.

All in all, Dissidia: Final Fantasy is a highly enjoyable experience whether you're a fan of the franchise or not.

Whoa! I've never played a fighting arcade game like this before! Of course, because it is not an arcade game. It follows the story of all heroes of Final Fantasies from the first to 12th to fight with the villains of their series. The gameplay is amazing as it combines comboes, techniques, different style of superskills like Limit Breaks and also 360 degree dimensional fight that you can dash to and follow up your opponents' way to defeat them. To me, Dissidia is one of the core of Playstation Portable (PSP) gaming. :)

Even though the combat has some minor issues, there is still a lot of depth and engaging gameplay to be experienced in DISSIDIA.

Overall A challenging fighter that shows off the PSP's power. Slightly intimidating for non-fans, though.

This is Final Fantasy like you've never played it before.

Despite an unhealthy amount of fan service this is an innovative, if inaccessible, one-on-one fighter.

It seems that any time Square Enix tries to prove to the world that they can make more than super awesome RPGs, they underwhelm.

The game is very very good, I love the graphics, the attacks are just flawlessly made, character models are great. Opponents are as strong as crap. (It's hard to beat in my case...) Weapons are really great, and the fact that the characters are the characters from the past really kicks up my love for this game. GG Square Enix, make sure to quickly finish the Final Fantasy XV 'cus I wanna play it!!!

It’s an OK game. The gameplay is repetitive, even for a fighting game and the game is filled with unnecessary RPG mechanics to feel more like Final Fantasy I guess. If you’re just gonna play through the game in single player, it’s simply not gonna be that fun. I recommend the game for anyone who has a friend to play with, but I would say skip it if you’re just gonna play the campaign. The gameplay is a fully 3D fighter (pretty good-looking, I have to admit) using a unique style of fighting. The amount of damage you give is entirely decided by your ”bravery”. That means that all HP attacks are the same strength. So the usefulness of your attacks are completely decided by their range and speed. To get more bravery you have to use bravery attacks to drain their bravery. When their bravery is gone they ”break” giving you a LOT of bravery. This also leaves the broken enemy with a very weak defense. This is when you’re supposed to OBLITERATE them with your HP attacks. It’s a good idea that works well, but it’s not enough to make the fights varied in my opinion. So give it a try if it sounds interesting, but don’t expect it to be a very good fighting game.

Despues de jugar un tiempo a este juego debo decir que es decepcionante y no lo recomiendo. Pasamos del clasico FF de lucha por turnos donde se requeria estrategia y hacer algo fuera de lugar en mal momento nos costaba tener que cargar partida a un juego donde basicamente gana el que mas rapido machaque los botones. Cuando juego un RPG busco mejorar mi personaje, darle una historia y en definitiva hacer de un escualido personaje inicial un guerrero fuerte en un avance progresivo del juego, es decir, que los enemigos se vuelvan mas duros conforme yo lo haga manteniendo siempre asi un equilibrio y batallas intensas. Cuando jugue FF: Dissidia por primera vez me tentaba la idea de un FF distinto y lo de los combates que esta vez no son por turnos y no **** en darme cuenta de mi error. El juego se convierte en repetitivo hasta decir basta y no ofrece mecanicas nuevas mas halla de machacar los botones en el mismo combo una y otra y otra vez haciendolo aburrido al largo tiempo. Ademas el juego no te presenta una historia clara simplemente coloca a todos los personajes de los anteriores FF y ale maravillas todos en un mundo de un sueño para luchar contra el "mal" y punto sin ningun tipo de explicacion y te dan subtramas que son igual de aburridas que el juego en si. Como he dicho antes busco un avance progresivo cosa que este juego se pasa por sus partes nobles, simplemente pasamos de luchar contra un enemigo insultantemente facil a otro que nos da una soberana paliza una y otra y otra vez pero lo peor es que cuando consigues de casualidad vencer a estos enemigos omnipotentes la recompensa no esta acorde con lo que a costado matarlo, te dan una cosa que es incluso peor que lo que actualmente llevas y te decepciona asi que terminas optando por evitar los combates con estos enemigos pues no te reportan beneficio mas halla de una poca experiencia extra. Otros fallos que e encontrado es la camara la cual en mapas como pandemoniun te deja vendido al intentar esquivar un ataque de persecuccion enfocando una pared dejandote una vision total de 0. Ademas la poca historia que tiene el juego es tan irrelevante que puedes ir directamente a por el boss final despues de hacer la primera odisea. En definitiva este juego deja mucho que desear y no lo recomiendo, saldria mucho mas rentable adquirir cualquier otro juego de la saga.
