Rated - 5 starsThe Final Fantasy VII Trilogy Is Now Complete

leviiathan from Telford [Highly rated reviewer] , 27/05/2008

With the release of Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core, the prequel to the original Final Fantasy VII released on PS1, the epic tale continues, or rather - begins - with the key events and original story that leads up to where FFVII begins.

Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core focuses on the life of Zack Fair, an elite member of Shinra's SOLDIER, and his relationships with characters such as Sephiroth, Aeris (Aerith) and others previously met when you play as Cloud in the original FFVII on the PS1.

I consider Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core to be a combination of FFXII and the original FFVII as combat is no longer turn based as it was in the original FFVII game. Combat is similar to Final Fantasy XII and introduces a unique 'Digital Mind Wave' system which is not unlike a fruit machine with a rolling display that gives bonuses when pictures match up. This is also how limit breaks are performed and you gain a level when the Digital Mind Wave displays 7 7 7.

The in-game graphics, cut-scenes and music is all perfectly executed and the game is highly recommended to fans of the Final Fantasy series in general (more specifically Final Fantasy VII) and those who have enjoined any game published by Square Enix. Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core is simply a beautiful game.

To get the most out of the Final Fantasy VII story you can play the games in two different sequences. If you are yet to play the original Final Fantasy VII game for the PS1, you can start there like the rest of the world did and then play Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core. Alternatively you can play through the story in order starting with FFVII: Crisis Core and then FFVII for the PS1. Lastly - you should watch Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children to complete the epic trilogy.

Warning: Once you start to play you will not want to stop!
