Editorial Reviews :
Long recognized as role-playing games par excellence, the Final Fantasy series gets a technological makeover in this installment (and series debut on the PlayStation). Shedding the two-dimensional graphics and limited sound capabilities of its predecessors, Final Fantasy VII features lush 3-D graphics, beautifully animated 'movie' sequences, and soundtrack-quality music. Coupled with the game's intricate storyline, endearing characters, and immense yet highly imaginative world, these new advancements make for a quite an engrossing experience.
The story of Final Fantasy VII centers around a solider named Cloud Strife, who joins forces with Avalanche, a group of resistance fighters, to take down an evil mega-corporation known as Shinra. (The fate of the world hangs in the balance, of course.) Truly epic in scope, this four-disc game requires a considerable amount of time to complete---this reviewer gladly gave up over 80 hours of his life to finish it. But it's definitely a rewarding adventure that every PlayStation owner should consider undertaking, especially since it's now one of the low-priced 'Greatest Hits' titles. --Joe Hon
Buyer Reviews :
'There must be something incredible about this game,' you're probably saying to yourself after looking at one 5 star review to another 5 star review. I'm telling you, if you want to 'experience' a game, Final Fantasy VII is as close as they come.
So, what on Earth distinguishes this game from any other? Easy answer...everything, but in particular the story. I'm not going to go into lengthy detail but from the moment you begin playing the game, it draws you in and for the next couple of weeks (maybe longer) you will be glued. It's a very captivating story that makes you feel for the characters, people, and environment in the game.
The music, movie scenes, battle screen play, they all contribute enormously into making this game complete (there are also mini games included, which are additional bonuses). You will see that everything provided to you in this game was carefully planned out and very time consuming. The originality of the game set standards as to what an RPG should be, which is why many feel this game is a breakthrough.
Honestly, I am the type of person who likes to play videogames and I have played many in the past. After a while it becomes easy to separate games that are thought-provoking and attractive from those that are a complete miss. This game is on the top of my list for RPG games for the reason that all RPGs that are being currently made view FFVII as a Citizen Kane for videogames. Though it would be hard to declare this game the best game ever made, frankly because there are many genres of video games, it deserves a place among the elite game titles made. I hope my review inspired you to take a stab at this game; but believe me and the many people who have previously written the review to this game, when you look back at the many hours spent playing, meeting all the characters, visiting all the places, struggling through all the emotions, you will discover why gamers like us....are Final Fantasy Fanatics. ENJOY!
