A game made for Final Fantasy fans, not so much for new comers. A interesting back story non the less.

User Rating: 7 | Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII PS2
A game that fools you by the brand name of Final Fantasy 7

It doesn't live up to the expectations of a FF game at all.
It lures you in with the picture of Vincent Valentine on the cover with a false hope of a great game and awesome graphics to a popular character.

What it comes down to is a Polished cinematic that FF players have come to expect, as soon as the game play starts it looks like Vincent was hit by a truck, the games looks go down the drain of video game visuals.

To add to the games misfortune, all the game play was, was a bunch of slow shooting to what seemed to be a rushed cast of characters, With a horrible amount of customization.The only thing that kept me slightly interested was the fact that I was hoping Cloud would come in and steal the show or the next cinematic would actually keep me entertained... Well Cloud never stole the show (with only a few seconds of camera time) but the cinematic and the back story to Vincent kept me going.

The Game also tries to keep you playing with secret targets that give you unlockables... which I still have to figure out. One tends to be so engulfed in just getting to the next cinematic that they forget they even exist.

6.0 is probably just right for this game. Even though it feels like a last minute and not truly plotted out game, the story for a major FF fan will keep you playing. If your new to FF read up and play a few games before you decide to invest in it.
