Previously we've only gotten a couple of glimpses of the battle system courtesy of various magazines, and thanks to the latest trailer of Final Fantasy XIII, we've gotten a bit more insight into the battle system, and ars technica's members have taken it upon themselves to expose the battle system as much as they can.

Few games of this entire console generation are has highly-anticipated as Final Fantasy XIII. As one of the biggest entries in the series and the first multi-platform one (not counting the online-only Final Fantasy XI), Final Fantasy XIII has an almost incalculable amount of hype to live up to. While the game still remains largely shrouded in mystery, Square-Enix has released some clear gameplay footage from the game which showcases the new battle system.

    Lul @ them thinking the bar above enemies is ATB. It's a health bar, Square Enix said so. Way to keep up with the news, guys.

    Nice to know that Tactics Ogre and FFT were MMORPGs.

    The battle details also screams Mana. It's one thing if you have someone's limit as Dial-A-Combo, but I don't want to see an RPG where you "build meter" to spam uber Death Move #34347839 against the boss.
