Its a wierd hybrid of a game. A 3rd person shooter with more cut scenes than MGsolid.

I loved FFVII and anyone who did will love this also, not for the gameplay but for nostalgia.

Heart stopping moment for me was Shinra HQ in 3D, as I remembered it!!!

I loved it. As a Non FFVII fan 6/10 as a FFVII fan 9/10.

I am a very big fan of Final Fantasy. I'm an even bigger fan of Final Fantasy 7. So if anything having to do with FF7 comes out for any system (PSX, PSP, PS2, PC, DVD, VCR, CD, TAPE, 8-TRACK, KITCHEN SINK) I'm gonna buy it regardless of critisizm. But that's just me, I'm really into the whole FF7 story.

I haven't played it yet...and though it isn't on my to die for list, I'd like to get it because it's at least worth trying because I won't know if it's good or bad till I do. It looks interesting to me, though shooters aren't really my forte XD Still, I love FFVII so I think it'd be worth buying just for that. To me at least.

I got it literally becuase its part of the collection, and I was a bit let down. I found it more of a chore to play through this game, I really didn't like it. But definately get it just for the extra areas to the story.

its great if your a vincent fan and/or you are really into the FFVII story but otherwise... it proberbly is really too easy a game. It is a good game if its your first time playing a shooter game, to ease into the genre but other wise rent it.

It's worth it if you liked Final Fantasy VII, a fan of Vincent Valentine and if you like shooting games. In my opinion, it was definitely worth the £30 I bought it for.

I don't get why this game is getting all the bad press when games like Devil May Cry will get alot of praise. I thought this was a great game with a great story and game play.

Devil May Cry was a game with no expectency. This game is carrying the Final Fantasy 7 banner, and so is carrying a lot of expectations.

Don't get me wrong, I liked the game. But it was a bit of a let down with it being the next game in the FF7 world. The thing that got me through this was the reminder that Cloud's and Vincents stories are different. Vincent has a other types of demons to deal with than Cloud.
