Final Fantasy VII
Publisher: Eidos Interactive
Developer: SquareSoft
"Final Fantasy VII is more than just a game, it's an interactive experience that mesmerizes and captures the full attention of the player. Instead of creating a traditional RPG in which characters are merely a tool used to drive the plot behind the game, the designers have created characters that evolve throughout the game."
