The title is what Sean said when I first said I'd bought Dissidia.
Even mirrored, it is awesome.
The game allows you to play as any of the main heros/villians from the first 10 games. You start with all the heros, and unlock the villians.
The list as follows:
FFI: Warrior of Light --> Garland FFII: Firion --> "The Emperor" Mateus FFIII: Onion Knight --> Cloud of Darkness FFIV: Cecil --> Golbez FFV: Bartz --> Exdeath FFVI: Terra --> Kefka FFVII: Cloud --> Sephiroth FFVIII: Squall --> Ultimecia FFIX: Zidane --> Kuja FFX: Tidus --> Jecht
You can also unlock two bonus characters later on from the next two games:
FFXI: Shantoto FFXII: Gabranth
The equipment/accessories inventory is all shared; every character can use the same items, without having to buy multiples. Weapons unlock as you buy/find new ones, and accessories can be made, traded, or created through battle. Item effects from old games become accessory effects in this one.
Experience is gained through battle. Every large hit and successful win equals experience, so more battles = more EXP. To gain it outside of story mode, simply engage in quick battles. POUND TIDAS'ANNOYING a** IN OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
Story mode is treated like a game of chess, with your player piece able to move a set amount of times. Each move uses up one Destiny Point (DP). DP can be earned from certain battles by fufilling certain conditions. Chests contain weapons, items and money, and once opened, re-appear in subsiquent playthroughs with Player Points (PP), the currency for buying extra stuff, like characters and costumes.
The battles themselves are much like a real-time beat-down brawl, but can be changed over to the move-select style easily. EX Mode is like the overdrive/Hyper/ect mode from other games, and an EX Burst (final hit in this mode) is usually highly flashy, requires huge amounts of imput, and are usually one-hit KO's. In addition, EX mode offers alternate weapons/armour/forms for it's short duration.
The game is incredibly addictive and solid. The achievements (all 151 of them) are not labled right away, but are always being tallied. Once they hit 50% completion, they become labeled. Some are completely ridiculous. (Such as play for 15 hours, or 7 days straight.)
The music and graphics are 5 star as well. For those that like FF or have a PSP, this is a must-get. ;P

To tack on since I'm farther in it than she is, There are 4, count 4 different story modes...
Destiny Odyssey, Which has 10 different "Chapters" (one per character of Cosmos)
Shade Impulse, Which is the lead up to the final battle against Chaos, you can use any COSMOS character, for this. However, you get a bonus cut-scene if for each character when you go up against their antagonist (See above for that list)
Distant Glory, This has two separate modes, one for FFXI and one for FFXII, each are unlocked under different conditions and one common condition. The common Condition is that you have to have cleared Shade Impulse. The different conditions are that FFXI's story isn't unlocked till you clear 5 Destiny Odyssey Chapters, too which you are graced with a cutscene of Shantotto and Gabranth talking with Cosmos. FFXII's chapter is opened when you've cleared all of Destiny Odyssey.
The Final story mode is Inward Chaos...this is a true test of skill and strength. Why you might ask? the characters are all from level 90-110. Yes, you read that right 110. For the record, the max level is only 100.
You can unlock Chaos to fight in quick battle, who you have to beat 3 times (just like in Story mode).
Another thing that was forgotten, was that each character has a different encounter depending on who they fight. For example, if you fight Squall vs. Squall you'll hear "There can be only one Squall". Some are amusing (namely Kefka's) others are signature for the characters.
In Quick battle you can pick the music you want to fight too. So, for example, you can fight Warrior of Light vs. Gabranth listening to OWA.
EDIT: Trent, who let you out of the closet.
