Well, only thing we can do is wait till game is released so we can see how good the battle system is.

Im not convinced by a magazine's opinion that a battle system is good or not, the same happened with the Gambit system.

After reading the scan it sounds interesting, however, I very much doubt that we'll know anything else about FFXIII's battle system (and possibly anything in general) until after and during the E3 conference.

personally, i think random battles were pretty annoying. they were literally, random. some battles would come exactly one step after a really long and tedious battle. there are some times when you just don't want to fight too much. like if you're in a rush or something. you just wanna get there and get out. i liked the fact that you could duck and hide from monsters in FFXII. and now that it's being reinvented in FFXIII, i think i'll be even happier

they better not throw in those damn gambits.. cause once i buy it and find out gabmits have returned i'm running back to the gaming store and sell it back

i really cba to waste my time playing a boring game like FFXII again

it would be nice if they could implement the turn-based feel into this battle system, that would definitely be amazing

That scared me when I read that

That game is destined to haunt me forever

I stopped reading after that

Blurry print was blurry. I'm assuming there will be a gambit system again

I honestly can't see myself buying this game...never thought I'd hear myself say that

Me too, I can't imagine playing an FF that has the gameplay of kingdom hearts. For sure, many will changes happen to the game. There will definitely be char gambits if it happens. Also, we'll all have less spells since there wont be enough time to srcoll down the menu, the summons will most likely be on gambits, and your controller buttons are gonna get beaten up. It's sad, as an FF fan, I'll be forced to buy a PS3, the game, and then see for myself.

From what people have gathered from the trailer, magazines, and the limited amount of information about the game, the battle system sounds quite awesome. Yes, it will have XII's style of non-random encounters, but is so much more than that. Battles are now extremely fast pace and fluid, though keeping with a large set of commands and character management without a poor gambit system. The ATB gauge is back, and all commands are based off of it. Though battles take place in real time, it seems that you have to wait to gather enough ATB to use commands - blocking, attacking, magic, etc... The real innovation here is that, with enough ATB stored up, you can string several commands together and unleash them onto your opponents. Selecting Attack + Attack + Firaga, for example. We see a very quick glimpse of this in the trailer.

If the battle system is anything like all the information, and sneak peek of the trailer, suggests, then this is going to be an awesome game.
