A Game That Could Have Been So Much Better....

Date of Review:  Feb 16, 2009
The Bottom Line: The plot is erratic, the writing is poor, the combat is horribly convoluted, and the alleged love story exists only tenuously in Final Fantasy 8.
Review: So many fans of Square demand a remake of Final Fantasy VII for the Playstation 3. I, however, feel that that Square would do well at giving Final Fantasy 8 another shot on Sony's new console, and this time they could:

Futuristic role-playing thriller

Date of Review:  Mar 30, 2001
The Bottom Line: I give Final Fantasy VII my highest recommendation for fans of the role-playing genre.
Review: Final Fantasy VII was the game that got me hooked on the role-playing genre. It was released in 1997 by Squaresoft for play on the Sony Playstation game console and eventually made it to PC. I own both the Playstation and PC version, and the...

Limit Break!

Date of Review:  Mar 5, 2000
Review: This RPG ain't too shabby!

This has a great storyline following 6 games before it.

The graphics ain't too bad either and the characters are ok cool.

If you you had a choice in buying this or another RPG, then you'd be...

Looking back on FF7: its impact and Final Thoughts

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: Through and through, it succeeds as great art.
Review: There's only one test that determines what is great art: time. Six years after the release of Final Fantasy 7, my mind still lingers on it. I can still hear the orchestrations. I still recall specific scenes.

And it is the only game to...

Pick your favourite RPG. Then think where it came from...

Date of Review:  Dec 10, 2002
The Bottom Line: Put bluntly, this is the Sh*t. The Daddy. The Nuts. The...you get the idea.
Review: OK, think back. Before PS2, XBox, GameCube et al, before Metal Gear Solid, GTA Vice City and Army Men: Green Rogue, before all that. Think back to 1997, where the PlayStation, now a grandfather in gaming terms, was still a fresh-faced infant on the...

Final Fantasy 7

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2002
The Bottom Line: If you're a Quake player you wouldn't like this game so get back to your 3D shooters,if you're not then you will LOVE it!
Review: To make up with a really good review I will probably have to use 10 hole pages and nobody will read it so I ll try to write the things that impressed me about this game and not a real review with marks and other crap. Just things I considered were...

Better Story than FF8!

Date of Review:  Dec 12, 1999
Review: When FF8 came out, I said to myself, "If this does better than FF7, it'll be because it's better." News flash! This game is better than 8 and in some cases, 6! There is an ACTUAL STORYLINE in this game. You're not only saving the world, you're...

I still think this game is cool!

Date of Review:  Nov 20, 2000
Review: Well, many people complain about FF7 and FF8 a lot. Really I think that FF8 is the only one that people should be rippin' to shreads. I like FF7 because of the characters. Sephiroth is one bad a$$. Cloud is really cool too. Yeah the game is a little...

Date of Review:  Dec 12, 1999
Review: Final fantasy 7 is one of the best games I have played in a long time. The game has some great video clips that really draw you into the game. The graphics in the normal play mode leave a lot to be desired, but the game play and depth more than make...
