Square Enix sent over some new Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn screenshots showing the PlayStation 3 version. Final Fantasy XIV has a different interface on PS3 with 16 total command slots. The d-pad and face buttons (circle, cross, triangle, and square) are for eight slots. The other eight can be accessed when you hold down the L2 or R2 buttons. Players can set eight action bars and cycle through these using L2 and R2. The main menu, as explained last night, has a XMB-like interface.
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will have more cameos from previous Final Fantasy games like Amon, an optional boss from Final Fantasy III. Summon monsters Leviathan and Odin are also confirmed to be in Final Fantasy XIV.
Chocobos in Final Fantasy XIV can learn skills. You can make a chocobo that specializes in healing and wears a white mage hood (left) or an attack-obo.
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will also have advanced dungeons like this one desgined for players level 40 or higher.

I'm quite excited for the new interface that's going to be implemented into the PS3 version! After playing FFXIV for the PC, I felt that the GUI could've used some work. It was pretty annoying for me to access the menu quickly and efficiently, and let's face it - when you're playing an MMO, you want to be able to quickly navigate through the menu options. Plus, the new design looks pretty modern and sleek, y'know? ^^
EDIT: Also, I loooove the idea that chocobos can learn skills! && just look how cute they look with their robes on! hehe x3
