Watching Anachronox is the name of a new Anachronox preview over at GameSpot. The preview has a bunch of new images (after a couple of old ones...trust me, they're there) and a description of the battle sequences. Here's the dirt on those:

The battle sequences appear similar in style to Square's Final Fantasy VII and Chrono Trigger, but instead of transporting the characters into another setting, the fight stays in the normal environment. The attack menu is currently icon based and rotates around the character when called up.
