His game log tells us details about the S-E title:
December 16th
– All of the Member’s storylines advance in Story Mode.
– There is a move scene everytime you clear the game with one person.
– Most techniques can be done with the push of a button, though it depends on timing.
– Cutscenes can be skipped, and the choice to do so comes up when you start the game.
– It takes about a hour and a half to beat Cloud’s Story
– Terra’s story takes about two hours to complete.
– Terra’s Storymode difficulty is rather high.
– Each character requires a different Strategy when using them.
– The game uses the PSP’s Latest Firmwire Update (Sorry not 1.50, my mistake it’s 5.01)
– The Evasion Technique (Using the Right button with X, and a direction button) is kind of hard to get used to but it’s a major point in the game.
– The Limited Edition’s Calendar is kind of small, however interestingly enough on some sites the Calendar has been moved elsewhere it still comes with the bundle though.
– Leveling up isn’t as hard as it is in other Final Fantasy games, Firion takes about a couple of hours to get to level 14…nevermind it is pretty long.
– There’s one scene with Squall and Garland that’s pretty interesting, and gameplay wise Squall is pretty brutal with combos.

– Bahamut from FFX, and the Magus Sisters are Summons
– (Uploading a Dissidia video right now)

I have to ask though, how is it an "Exclusive" when somewhere else has reported it first? The whole point of an exclusive is that you get it first, and not just copy it from the original source… Oh well, a few nice details in there, despite having already read them on a few other blogs before reading it here.
