FInal Fantasy 13 time/turned based. Final fantasy versus 13 realtime/ no turned based but open fighting.

Sounds like it'll be like Dragon Quest then... where you can see the enemies you're going to be fighting but then have a turn-based (or ATB, perhaps) battle. This is the best compromise possible, IMO. If I wanted real-time, I'd get a shooter or a hack-n-slash. But random battles are sooo 1989.

Give me FF8's battle system in next-gen graphics, and I'll cry tears of joy for 3 days.

Nice! Although, I personally can't wait for the battle system in Versus XIII. Can't beat the Kingdom Hearts, DMC, and Ninija Gaiden battle systems, lol.

True enough, but I'm just talking about the action style as opposed to turn-based (don't get me wrong though, I love turn-based too, especially Strategic RPG's like FFT)

hmm...well...IMO the best ff's seem to follow the trend of being the first on new platforms (ff7 for ps and ffx for ps2) so if this follows the trend...it will be one of the best yet. I cant wait to see what they do with it...

grrr, ditching the turn based battle system was the best step for the ff franchise imo, why would they go back? ffxii was almost universally praised for its new battle system. looks like ill be sticking with ffVS.xiii

kingdom hearts? sorry, i love the franchise (own KH2: Final Mix+), but the battle system is one of the weakest parts of the game imo, just rapidly mash X and its a guarenteed win almost every time (actually its O in FM+ since its a japanese game, but my point remains valid).

Turn-based is still kick-ass, but i wished they were both free roaming like FF XII but with a little innovation added into it.

It's going to have elements of both turnbased and real time from what i've read and heard. For me personally, the idea of turn based is boring and unrealistic. From the trailers suggest that the game moves far to fast to have turn based mechanics, it seems more like combinations of real time attacks strung together. However, 13 seems like it will have the cinematic elements of older turnbased systems to really show off the combat. Like turnbased games it will enter into a battle mode that will feel different than the mmo style of 12. Square said that they are aiming for Advent Children style of action which seems impossible in a turnbased system.

Atleast that's the impression I got after seeing the trailer, reading an interview over at ffxii.net (or something like that), and seeing some other news (the advent children comment by square). This will be my first FFgame in the main series so I'm hype. I've never played a FF game before but Crisis Core for psp will likely be my first bc it looks cool.

X-2 was actually my favorite battle system, but thats great to hear its won't be active time, a turn based battle system is just alot more epic. FFXII always felt kind of muted as far as epic battles go, great to hear it. FFXIII will kick 455!

I actually have to agree with you that X-2 is one of the better battle systems. I liked how fast it was, but that was about the only thing they got right with the game, back massage anyone?(that has to be themost disturbing partof any video game i've played)

I'll give you that, but I'm just talking about the more Action style as opposed to Turn-Based (although Turn-Based is also AWESOME! Which is why I'll get both, lol)
