Birth Of A Revised Kingdom Hearts Battle System (Siliconera Preview)

Siliconera: "Visually, Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep looks like the PlayStation 2 games with less textures. The combat system isn't the same though, it's better. I played a demo with Terra, the keyblade bearing hero who sort of resembles Zack Fair. Terra is quickly thrown into combat with blue unbirths. You can start swinging the keyblade by mashing the circle button, essentially repeatedly selecting fight from the familiar menu. As you land hits a combo counter tells you how you're doing and a meter above the menu fills up. When it's full Terra switches to Fatal Mode and gets a new set of slow, but more damaging keyblade strikes. Keep attacking and the meter fills up again which gives Terra access to a one use devastating aerial attack."
