Wired's Hands-On With Dissidia Final Fantasy

Square Enix has definitely taken big steps forward from their disappointing PSone fighting game Ergheiz in their next stab at a Final Fantasy-flavored fighting game, Dissidia Final Fantasy.

Directed by Yosuke Shiokawa of the Kingdom Hearts series, Dissidia is one of PSP's most visually impressive games yet. The game features a cast of stylized Square characters compiled by Tetsuya Nomura, semi-destructible environments, decently sized and varied battle arenas, and a surprisingly good camera. Add in fast-paced free roaming 3D combat, the ability to scale walls and other areas of the map, all in a very smooth frame-rate, and you have what looks to be a fairly promising title.

I'm curious but is it possible to legally play these games without buying a psp?

luckytrouble1807d ago

You can play some of them on the Vita via PSN purchasing, but a PSP with a functional UMD drive is the only completely legal way to play games like FF7: Crisis Core.

WeAreLegion1807d ago

Some of them, yes. But most PSP games are locked to that system or digitally on Vita. The Vita's second analog stick is amazing for FPS games. I use an emulator to play many PSP games. I know that's illegal, but I wouldn't call it unethical. There's no way to give developers money for these games anymore. Unless you buy their new games. :)

Highly recommend Infected, if you get the chance.

Magic_Spatula1807d ago

Emulators aren't illegal. Unethical? Maybe. The issue companies have are how you obtained the games. If you got them through legal matters (such as making your own backups of games you own and not distributing them), they're mostly okay with that. If you got the through less..... ethical means, then yeah, it's a no-no in their eyes.

Fluke_Skywalker1807d ago

@Magic_Spatula Like he said, there is no legal way to buy most psp games anymore in a way that gives the developers any money. So yes emulators are normally illegal and unethical, but in this case its actually the only way to play some of these games, if you didn't buy the games many years ago.

Fluke_Skywalker1807d ago

Yeah they really need to give us a remake of that for PS4/5 I absolutely loved that game. Still the saddest ending to a video game ever.

SDuck1807d ago

The fact this has vanilla Dissidia instead of Duodecim tells me not to take the list serious. Duodecim is obviously the superior since it has the same content (story included) from the first game and (much) more

Magic_Spatula1807d ago

Yeah. Duodecim was basically an enhanced version of the original game.
