Transcript of Featured Review

Hi. Today I'm going to be reviewing the game Final Fantasy VII for PlayStation 1. Even though it is designed for the PS1, it can be played on a PS2 if you have a PS1 memory card still. This game came out in 1997, surprisingly still holds up as one of the greatest games of all time. The graphics and the sound quality definitely do look and sound dated; but what we tried this game for was the game play itself and the storyline. It's an RPG game that features surprisingly in depth and complex story and ties actually directly into a recently released film, Final Fantasy VII Advent Children. The game play itself is very in depth as well. Even though I spent countless hours playing it; there's a lot more mini-games and secrets I haven't unlocked yet. It can be played - this game - for years and years. For it's time, it was a really revolutionary type game because it features a real-time term base fighting system. So even though it's a term base RPG like traditional RPGs, it's in real time, so there's a countdown timer, so it feels almost like an action game hybrid. If you can get passed the graphical limitations in the game and the sound quality, you're really in store for a great game; one of the greatest of all time.

Summary

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 Pros: Intricate and absorbing storyline with endearing characters Immense and highly imaginative game world Special battle system Beautifully animated movie sequences Cons: Your friends and family may feel neglected
