Final Fantasy XIII's Battle System Exposed
A preview of what you'll be seeing in a few weeks.
The battles in Final Fantasy XIII are basically realtime; you can see enemies on the game map and fall into battle when you come into contact with them. Your party has a time gauge that fills up over...time, and once it reaches a certain level, you can execute commands. This is sort of like the "Active Time Battle" system we saw up until Final Fantasy IX, but unlike before, commands can be executed even if the time gauge isn't completely full.
You see, the gauge is divided into sections; when each one fills up, you are able to execute one command, such as "Fight" or using an item. When the gauge is full, you can input several commands in one go and watch as your party executes them all at once, with the results depending on the sequence of your orders.
Every command, meanwhile, has an associated cost. For example, while "Fight" only consumes one time unit, trickier magic could cost three or more units, draining your time gauge rapidly. While unconfirmed, it seems likely that more time units will be added to the gauge as you levels up, and that'll be important -- given that there's no visible MP display on the battle screen, there's a decent probability that magic works completely off the time gauge and there's no MP concept here at all.
Like in most recent FFs, chaining attacks plays a major role in the battle system. Attacking the enemy multiple times in rapid succession results in a Chain, which gives a bonus to the damage you deal. Linking a chain together fills up a gauge on the top right of the screen; once it reaches a certain level, enemies will start to flash red onscreen. Keep the chain going until you fill the gauge to maximum, and enemies will go into Break mode, letting you deal even more damage until the gauge is fully exhausted. Enemies in Break mode can be thrown into the air with a dedicated command, letting you juggle them around for -- you guessed it -- more damage. (You can't juggle really huge monsters, of course, but there might be some other method of making them vulnerable for a short period of time.)
There's no doubt more to the battle system, of course, but further details will have to wait for the launch of FFXIII's demo, due April 16 in Japan.

Why would anybody think that you can post something like that online and not get called out for it. This is the Internet, people will say and do anything under the vale of anonymity.
@DKqwertyPosted: Mar 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jinoda
Dude, you keep trying to be a douche by pointing out typos, so I will point out a few YOU have done on your own profile:
"Well I remember it as though it were a meal ago," said Tommy the Cat as he reeled back to clear whatever foreign matter may have nestled it's way into his mighty throat. - If it is possessive, it's "its." "It's" means "it is."
"Many a fat ally rat had met it's demise while staring point blank down the cavernous barrel of this awesome prowling machine." - First, it's spelled "alley." An "ally" is like a friend, or the opposite of "enemy." Also, you fucked up that "its vs it's" thing again.
I don't particularly want to go into all of the fragmented sentences and missing prepositions (you leave out "of" a lot; I know colloquially there's nothing wrong with it, but I needed to give you a taste of your own medicine).
I'm sure I made some mistakes as well, but nobody's perfect and a few typos here and there are, in the grand scheme of things, irrelevant.
I've sent this as a message to you as well, just to be sure you see it at some point.
Hmm...Posted: Mar 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by Randy_VKO_One
I have a friend that will most likely be coming over to my house everyday just to play this game. He digs this kind of stuff...
Sweet!Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by CaptainDugglas
Sounds more like Xenogears type battle system than Xenosaga as Kevin previously posted. But this is a very good thing cause Xenogears had one of my favorite battle systems.
break mode huh?Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by GangstaKevin
sounds a little like xenosaga
Hmm.Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by Galactic_Barret
farscape, what you said was unnecessary. At this point, you sound worse than the person you are trying to tell off. Theres no rule against civility, so lets tone it down and be a little more respectful.
Yeah...dkPosted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by farscape_21
How mature and intelligent is it to spend all your time scanning the articles of a video game website for the tiniest of typos? Since most of your comments tend to be "get some fucking editors" and have almost no relation to the article itself, it's no wonder the 1up mods are just deleting your pointless, dumbass posts. Why don't you just go back to masturbating in front of a picture of yourself and leave all us grammatically incorrect people be.
Anal retentive people aside, the new combat system sounds interesting (no MP?! o_0). But what I really want to hear about is an interesting story and more likable characters. To me, that's where the last few FF installments have suffered the most.
Cool?Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by Tsukou
This actually sounds like a good mix between different battle systems. It isn't competely real-time, yet is real-time.. It's not just, run up to the enemy and slash them to death. If they tweak the timing to perfection, it could be great. Because too slow of a fill up would be bad, but too fast would also be bad.
Like some realtimes just become button mashers, and some ATBs are basically turn battles.
The only thing is, I'm wondering if they're gonna bring back gambits from FF12, or if it'll just be an AI for your teammates.. Because controlling multiple characters within a real time battle isn't.. the easiest thing. Personally I wouldn't want to see something like EternalSonata/MagnaCarta where each character has a turn, but it didn't look that way in the trailers, so it's all good..
Hmm.Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by Galactic_Barret
If you've played it before, it sounds exactly like Valkyrie Profile Silmeria. Yes, BlazingAero, you can move while executing commands. Still more excited for FFvXIII, though; It just seems so much cooler and coherent, at least from the trailers.
Sounds like...Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by ghostman2k78
I'm not sure I like this...no MP guage?? I'm sure it'll still rock but right now the idea of having the 'Fight' command using up part of the same gauge that is used for magic doesn't sound so good. I don't think the 'Attack' command should be gauged at all.
The battle system...Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
...sounds nice. I'm just wondering if you'll actually be able to run around in real time during battle.
"The battles in Final Fantasy XIII are basically realtime; you can see enemies on the game map and fall into battle when you come into contact with them."
That sounds like it, but I'm not completely sure. One of the vids I saw looked like there was real time dodging/running. I guess we'll find out soon enough.
@ mrthewhitePosted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
Actually, it can be correct if you understand that "up" is also a verb meaning "to rise" or "ascend". You're still right about the sloppy editing, though. I just read an in-your-face typo here yesterday.
i cant waitPosted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by captain_chody
to play this one, i'm really looking forward to this one. i feel like this one is gona be like the old ones like ff1 through ff8 which is fucking amazing.
EDITPosted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by mrthewhite
'While unconfirmed, it seems likely that more time units will be added to the gauge as your levels up'
Man editing has really gone down hill since 1up axed all those staff memember. I've seen mistakes in almost every article I've read.
Finally some actual description.Posted: Mar 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by nirvash_zero0

We have been published again, this time also on the cover of the recent "Spektrum der Wissenschaft Spezial" about the emergence of cities. Today the deposit copies arrived and we are very proud.
Tag Archives: German Archaeological Institute
As part of the Ancient Near East section at khanacademy.org, you can learn a lot about the Sumerian culture. One article is dedicated to the Anu Zuggurat and the White Temple in Uruk. We provided our reconstructions to illustrate that article and for everybody to understand better the complex architecture of that time. Take a couple minutes and refresh your memory!
The current issue of the French magazine "Les Cahiers Science & Vie: Histoire et Civilisations" features two of our reconstructions of Uruk. On the bottom left you can see the reconstruction of Architectural Layer 8 and on the bottom right you'll see the Eanna ziggurat of the Ur-III period. The issue is dedicated to the rise and the necessity of cities during the emergence of civilisations. You can check out their website here.
Finally, we can release our latest project: The reconstruction of the Great Hall of Karakorum. This medieval Buddhist temple was built upon a complicated terrace, but read for yourselves on our portfolio page. Oh, and there is also a nearly 8 minute long animation explaining the site, terrace, conservation management and reconstruction!
In the current issue of the German magazine "Archäologie Weltweit", one of our reconstructions of the Oxus Temple is featured! The project of the Oxus Temple is not online on our website yet, but we will change that soon. You can have a look at the magazine for free here.

Oak Forest Fire Department
Visits DHH ESY Program
Oak Forest Fire Department was able to come help cool
down the summer heat by visiting Southwest Coop's Deaf
and Hard of Hearing ESY Program. On July 26th, Nick
Smith from the Oak Forest Fire Department came to the
DHH ESY Program to talk about fire safety and
prevention. Students practiced how to check a door
safely, learned how to create an escape plan, and heard
first-hand experiences and stories from a fire
Afterwards, all the students were given a private tour
of one of the Oak Forest fire trucks. Students learned
facts like how many gallons of water a truck holds and
what kind of tools firefighters keep on the truck. They
even had a chance to sit in the cabin! Southwest Coop
would like to thank the Oak Forest Fire Department for a
day of learning and fun. A special thanks goes to Nick
Smith for organizing the event and for his
CD Rocked ESY....Literally!
The CD program hosted Rock Your Speech, a music project
geared to increase language acquisition for students
with ASD. Rock Your Speech was founded by Alison and Tom
Peterson (bass player of the rock group Cheap Trick) and
inspired by their son Liam. It is this group's mission
to help all kids to "find their voice through music."
SWCCCASE hosted this groups' FIRST school assembly
during ESY with the CD Program.
Students made instruments, sang along, and danced! We
had a great time hearing our favorite tracks, like
"Alphabet City" and "Blue," live with Rock Your Speech
artists. It was an engaging event for all attendees.

WASHINGTON (JTA) -- The chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives Latin American subcommittee slammed Venezuela's president for calling Israel a "genocidal" state.
Hugo Chavez, this week hosting Syrian president Bashar Assad, described their countries as having "common enemies": "The Yankee empire, the genocidal state of Israel."
U.S. Rep. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) said Chavez needed to distract attention from his own problems.
"If my country had the one of the highest murder rates in the world, the highest inflation rate in Latin America, and an economy which is expected to shrink by more than 6 percent this year, I, too, would be talking about anything but what's going on at home," Engel said. "I guess that's why Mr. Chavez is attacking the Israelis and why Foreign Policy Magazine just ranked him the 17th worst dictator in the world. And, I guess that's why he's hanging around Bashar Assad … number 12."
B'nai B'rith International also condemned the remarks.
"This meeting was a political move by Venezuela to form an additional partnership with another Middle East state-sponsor of terrorism," B'nai B'rith executive vice president Daniel Mariaschin said, referring to Chavez's closeness to the Iranian regime. "We call on the civilized world to unite together and oppose this language in the strongest of terms."

MELVILLE, N.Y. – Rising to meet the rigorous and evolving demands of professional photographers and videographers, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging, is proud to announce the new EOS-1D X Mark II DSLR camera. With a new 20.2 megapixel 35mm Full Frame Canon CMOS sensor and Dual DIGIC 6+ Image Processors, the EOS-1D X Mark II professional digital camera delivers stunning image quality and speed. Combining the ability to capture high-resolution still images at speeds up to 14 frames per second as well as stunning high-definition video up-to-4K 60P featuring Canon's proprietary Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus (AF) technology, the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II camera becomes the ideal camera for any professional image creator.
The Ultimate EOS Camera: Continuing a Legacy of High Speed and Performance
Building on the success of the Canon EOS-1D X professional digital camera, the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II camera is designed to deliver high-performance, speed, and image quality, with improved comfort for professional photographers. In addition to the new 20.2 megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor and Dual DIGIC 6+ Image Processors, the new EOS-1D X Mark II DSLR camera includes an improved 61-point High-Density Reticular AF II system with all AF points selectable by the user (and up to 41 cross-type points depending on the lens in use). The improved AF system includes expanded coverage that supports AF at maximum apertures up to f/8 with all 61 points for high precision autofocus even when using EF super-telephoto lenses with an EF extender. The camera also boasts excellent dynamic range and reduced color noise compared to its predecessor throughout its standard ISO speed range of 100 - 51,200. Expansion ISO speeds of 50, 102,400, 204,800 and 409,600 are also available. A first for the Canon EOS-1D series, this camera also features a 360,000-pixel RGB+IR metering sensor with enhanced precision and performance compared to its predecessor, improving facial recognition and tracking, as well as nature scenes. Additionally, the advanced AE system can detect and compensate for flickering light sources such as sodium vapor lamps that are often used in gymnasiums and swimming pools. When enabled, this anti-flicker system automatically adjusts shutter release timing to help reduce disparities in exposure and color especially during continuous burst shooting.
For filmmakers and photographers looking to do more than still photography alone with a DSLR camera and EF lenses, the EOS-1D X Mark II camera offers high resolution DCI 4K video at frame rates up-to-60p, with smooth movie recording to an in-camera CFast 2.0 memory card. An additional card slot supports standard CF memory cards up to UDMA 7. The built-in headphone jack supports real-time audio monitoring. Two additional EOS 'firsts' include 4K Frame Grab and 120p Full HD recording. The camera's 4K Frame Grab function allows users to isolate a frame from recorded 4K video and create an 8.8 megapixel still JPEG image in-camera. When combined with the EOS-1D X Mark II's high-sensitivity full-frame CMOS sensor, the new camera's ability to record Full HD video at frame rates up to 120p will allow videographers to produce high quality slow motion video even in extremely low light. To make video shooting even more intuitive, the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II camera's touch-screen LCD allows videographers to select the camera's AF point before and during video recording with Dual Pixel CMOS AF, which provides responsive, accurate and quiet camcorder-like video autofocus to DSLRs.
"The innovations within Canon's new EOS-1D X Mark II DSLR camera clearly set a new standard for professional cameras," said Yuichi Ishizuka, president and COO, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "In developing the EOS-1D X Mark II camera, we looked to incorporate user-requested performance enhancements to bring professional photographers the ultimate EOS camera, a camera that has matured and been developed to meet their evolving needs."
"Having f/8 capability on all 61 AF points is a tremendous benefit to wildlife photographers," noted nature photographer and Canon Explorer of Light Charles Glatzer. "In order to capture tight shots of animals without disturbing them, I frequently have to use very long lenses—sometimes with an extender attached, which further diminishes the aperture. The improved AF allows me to frame the shot exactly the way I envision it, without having to compromise."
"This camera is a huge step forward," remarked acclaimed photographer and Canon Explorer of Light Damian Strohmeyer. "Shooting sports in a gym at 8,000 ISO, it looked as good as 800 ISO from a generation or two ago. The images are tack-sharp, and the autofocus just doesn't miss. I've been amazed by what I've seen so far."
"The autofocus was awesome," agreed Peter Read Miller, sports photographer and Canon Explorer of Light. "The higher frame rate coupled with the speed of the CFast card was a definite advantage. It just never buffered out, even shooting RAW."
The new EOS-1D X Mark II camera also offers a built-in GPS** receiver with compass for precise geo-tagged information of latitude, longitude, elevation and direction. This is especially valuable to wildlife photographers and photojournalists who need to track their locations, as well as providing sports photographers the ability to sync a multiple-camera setup with extreme accuracy and precision. It is also possible to use the camera's built-in GPS to automatically sync the camera's time to the atomic clock, an invaluable feature to professionals. An improved grip also makes the camera easier for photographers to hold and maneuver while shooting. In response to feedback from professional EOS users, the AF points in the EOS-1D X Mark II camera's Intelligent Viewfinder II can be illuminated in red for improved visibility, especially when shooting in dark locations. AF sensitivity in low light has been doubled from EV -2 to EV -3 at the center AF point when the camera is set to One-Shot AF, enabling the camera to autofocus in extremely dark shooting conditions such as a moonlit nightscape. Viewfinder AF coverage has also been increased for greater compositional flexibility.
As with all EOS-1D series cameras, the EOS-1D X Mark II's rugged construction and magnesium alloy body is weather resistant. The camera also features improved controls and more in-camera image quality enhancements than ever before, including a Digital Lens Optimizer function offering high quality aberration correction which can now be achieved without an external computer. This feature makes it easier for professional photographers to deliver finished files to their clients, especially in situations when access to a personal computer is impractical or inconvenient.
The estimated retail price for the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II is $5999 (MSRP) for the body or $6299 for the Premium Kit which includes a 64 GB CFast memory card and card reader. The new camera is scheduled to begin shipping to authorized Canon USA dealers in April 2016***.

What are those, depth charges? Have to set the fuzes no? This would be a colourful chase, if they are both using tracers and next the explosions.
Depth charges would be useless as an explosive in the river. They require deeper to set off the pressure fuse. They might damage the following boat if it collides with it.
Theoretically, he might be able to ignite them by firing into them with the machine gun. But since this is a comic strip, I don't think they really care with the technical aspects of things.
So. We throw trash at them? Well, I guess….if insults didn't work.
We'll jam their props with a sea of plastic water bottles. Hopefully we can jam their rudders with these used disposable baby diapers.
Here's a scenario. Somehow they reach Nairobi again. Tarzan & Don take care of the pointed beards, and Jane punches Delilah (first, that is. Tarzan is second).
So, did Delilah take Tarzan's advice (yesterday) to get down, or did something else happen to stop her from interfering?
This story is tied up in nautical knots!
Depends on which type of depth charge they have. As I understand it, WW2 depth charge fuses were set for pressure (depth). In the early 1950s they changed to a contact fuses. I know because I came back off leave and my ship wasn't at Norfolk where it was when I left. I met her the next day when she returned the next day from Philadelphia to off-load and re-load cans. I missed that work party!!
Tarzan would be better off throwing GeorgeinAZ at them, explosive toxic pollution gas bag that he is. :)> BlowYourEvilWindElsewhereAGowa!!
Tarzan must have "clocked" Delilah into submission…smart move….now if I could only clock GeorgeinAz all would be well in the world. :)> BlackEyesForYouGeorgeAGowa!!
Did someone ARM the depth charges?
And why didn't Delilah pull Tarzan's pants down around his ankles? Looked like she was trying.
Haha. You just reminded me of the joke about the old sailor that was doing three knots. (nots)
Even if the depth charges were set with a pressure fuse rather than a contact fuse, if the second PT boat is close enough they might represent a hazard to navigation that they'll have to avoid hitting. Not that they'd necessarily explode if they're hit, but they're bound to at least make a dent in a boat traveling as fast as a PT at top speed.
A lot depends on how deep the river is. The minimum setting on a Mark 6 US depth charge was 30 feet, so if the river was deep enough it would go boom. The concussion could do a lot of damage to one of those wooden hulled boats. (I once read the story of Canadian Navy ship that was sunk by a U-Boat. The crew were unable to disarm the depth charges before the ship went down. When the stern reached the depth they were set for, they blew. The concussion from the explosions killed a lot of the guys who had survived the sinking but were in the water.)

Tamas Korchmaros purchased this apartment in 2010
The Andrassy 2 Apartment has one of the best locations in town. Very central, close to most tourist attractions, with the underground stoping in front of the building, yet the apartment is very quiet. It has recently been refurbished, so everythings looks like brand new. The fireplace is a real treat and free WiFi is a great plus.
modern, central location, quiet, spacious, fireplace, fee WiFi
The apartment was wonderful! Everything was very clean, the appliances were new, the elevator was modern, and we enjoyed sitting by the fire and watching movies from the large selection of DVDs. Of course we loved the location and being near so many sites and restaurants. We were so happy with the apartment manager and her attentiveness. I will strongly recommend this to anyone I know going to Budapest. Thank you! You made our visit to Budapest exceptionally good.
We were 3 friends visiting Budapest for the first time, the city is beautiful and so easy to walk around. The apartment suited our needs and was in a lovely area and so close to everything we wanted to see and do. The apartment is comfortable and well appointed and Tamas kept good contact with us before and during our stay. We arranged a car to pick us up and return us to the airport which Tamas arranged and everything was well managed and on time. The apartment overlooks the central courtyard and was very quiet and peaceful. We felt totally safe both in the apartment and the city. We would have no hesitation in recommending this apartment as a great place to stay and would thoroughly recommend Budapest for a city break
Central location - easy walk to all the major sites. Clean, Well equipped, beautiful apartment with modern amenities (including a nespresso machine). Had a splendid time in Budapest with our teenage kids. Tamas was on vacation but his assistant met us on arrival, settled us in the apartment efficiently. The building has a lot of character and even though we were there for 3 days - we had a feel of living like locals.The whole process of booking the apartment was seamless and Tamas was always staying in touch periodically with us prior to our arrival. Highly recommend this apartment.
I hate writing negative reviews and will usually avoid doing so. On this one I just felt I should.
First the positive: The location is wonderful. It is centrally located to most everything. We like to walk and felt most everything was within a very manageable distance. Carmen, the young lady that works with Tamas was delightful. She really tried to accommodate us as much as possible. The unit has had some renovations and the living area and bathroom were quite nice. It was nice and quite.
The location in the building was a bit of an effort to get to, but we felt very secure. You take an elevator to the top floor, walk around an interior walkway to the back of the building, then walk up 2 flights of stairs to the unit. People in good shape should have no problems what so ever. If you have issues with stairs, you may want to think twice.
Now the negative. We checked in the first day and the HVAC in the master was not working well. I figured the coil had frozen over from being run at the lowest setting for a while. When we left the next day I turned it up to 23C to give the coil a chance to defrost. When we returned, the bed was covered in black mold that had been clogging the AC unit. I reached in and everything inside was covered in mold. We closed off the master bedroom and called Tamas. He was very unconcerned. I had to call back later and ask to at least get another set of sheets so we could sleep the third person in our party on a single bed in the living area. The other two had to sleep in the second bedroom which did not have an operating window and felt a bit like a dungeon. He did have one of his assistants send over some sheets after we asked. He never bothered to even stop by and take a look.
I guess I was just taken aback by the lack of concern on the managers part. We basically paid for an apartment and only got to use 2/3 of it due to the poor maintenance. Now I didn't ask for any financial consideration, but I felt something should have been offered. He never even bothered to apologize for any inconvenience on our part. It is a real pity because you can tell an owner really tried to make it nice. Not a unit I can recommend. Sorry!
We stayed (family with two teenagers) for three nights in July. We stayed at eight different apts this trip and this was my wife's favorite and we all agreed it was a fantastic apt and I think may have been the least expensive - so quite a bargain. The apt is in the ideal location with easy walking access to parliament and other key sites and non-touristy restaurants. St. Stephens church and the metro is located across the street. We were met by a representative as Tamas was checking in guests (we arrived earlier than we had told him) at another apt but he came afterward. Turns out that Tamas owns this apt so as you can imagine, it is well maintained and clean. The apt is the only apt on the 6th floor in an iconic building and faces into the courtyard so it is extremely quiet despite being in a busy area of the city. There is an old lift (slow and not for anyone with claustrophobia) that takes you to the fifth floor but you need to walk up a private staircase for the last floor - not an issue for us but could be an issue for anyone with mobility issues. The children had single beds in a separate bedroom and the master bedroom area is separated from the living room with a sliding door so everyone has their space. All beds were comfortable. Extra fold-out beds are in the living room and the apt can sleep at least 7 but it would be tight to have more than five guests. The apt is well equipped in terms of cooking (we didn't cook), umbrellas (which we needed one morning), maps, city info, DVDs (for younger kids), etc. The air conditioning, washing machine, and wifi work great. Tamas brought us the correct soap for the washing machine and was kind enough to arrange a taxi to the airport when we left. He also recommended Menza restaurant which was great and he suggested we go to the miniature museum (just up Andrassy Ave) which we did one rainy morning - we all enjoyed the museum. Overall, we highly recommend this apt and we would stay here again but longer.
Great central location, quiet peaceful top 5th floor in the midst of a busy bustling city center. Compact apartment is modern and stocked with all basic necessities, appliances. Has air condition in living room, each bedroom, which is a welcomed relief for our summer stay. The washer for clothes is a big plus (air dry on clothes rack provided). Tamas K. is a fine host, owner. For our 5+ days stay, we could restock basics easily at nearby convenience store or market.
AND lovely Budapest shopping (this part of Andrassy street is haute couture shopping), dining (many!), and tourist areas are really just outside on the sidewalk the moment one steps out of the building. The Basilica is a block away around the corner; the Opera house is a few blocks away; the pedestrian shopping Vaci street (Gerbeaud for coffee, desserts a must), quaint small farmers markets, and the Danube are all within walking distance. Couldn't ask for more.
What a wonderful apartment in such a great location in such an amazing city. The apartment was very clean and had everything that you need for a short stay holiday. The metro station just outside but most sights were within easy walking distance. Tamas was wonderful - always answered my many questions promptly. Would not only recommend Budapest to our friends but certainly Tamas as well.
The Andrassy 2 apartments is located on the prestigious Andrassy Avenue. You will find many of the top brands like Gucci, Louis Vuitton and Burberry represented on this street. There are numerous restaurants and cafes just walking distance from the apartments, in fact a Costa café is located in our building. The underground number 1 (Metro 1) stops right in front of our building that takes you to the Opera House (1 stop), Oktogon (2 stops), Heroes' Square and Museum of Fine Arts (6 stops) and Szechenyi Bath & Spa (7 stops.) Deak Square, where all 3 undergrounds meet is just one stop away on the Metro, or 5 minutes walking.
