So, Dissidia: Final Fantasy. Or, what I like to call, the best thing ever.
You pick your character, wander around on the gameboard with their game's world map music playing, and go on wacky adventures with the most bizarre pairings of Final Fantasy main character groups ever. Yes, Bartz and Zidane are retarded BFFs who torment Squall with their antics. Yes, the random Onion Knight from FF3 protects Terra despite being 3 feet tall or something. Yes, Tidus is very curious about Firion's wild rose, and they are both supportive of Cecil's borderline obsession with his older brother. And yes, Kefka, the Emperor from FF2, and Kuja all wear more makeup than the girls and gossip about the other evil guys together.
And of course the fights take place in the best locations you could ever think of, with the appropriate battle music playing, naturally. So yes, you can skate up the stairs in Ultimecia's castle and pounce on the enemy with your character-specific attack, or smash the Esper tubes in Kefka's tower to gain an item inside it.
Then, perhaps even the best part, all the tutorial menus have characters from every single FF present. Loli Rydia explains summons, Galuf (with the help of Krile, because he's senile) tells you about abilities, and Yuffie offers her patented explanations for the low-low price of 99,999 gil. Oh, and there's a "Vicks? Who's Vicks? My name's Biggs!" joke. Seriously.
This game is a shameless indulgence and I absolutely love every minute of it. They made a retarded FF crossover game but made it okay to like it, somehow.
