FF7 is a great game, but not the best game ever.

User Rating: 9.3 | Final Fantasy VII PS
Final Fantasy 7 in my opinion, is a fantastic game, but is a very overhyped. Yes, it was a near perfect game for its time, but it doesn't hold up much today. If i offend any fans of the game who think that only an idiot would mark is below a 10, I'm sorry. But you must see that it is very overhyped. By the way, this was written as if I were there when the game was made, not holding it to todays standards. Story You are Cloud Strife, a former SOLDIER, who joins a group of near terrorists who are trying to take down an evil company. But you don't remember anything about yourself. Gameplay 10 / 10 Final Fantasy 7 set the standard for RPG's. You stand on one side and your opponents are on another, you wait until it's your turn and then attack them. Then there are the minigames. You eventually get a chocobo, and are able to breed them, which i think makes the game a little more interesting. And add the Gold Saucer which makes me think for some reason of if aliens invaded Las Vegas (Saucer like Flying Saucer, and all the minigames like you'd expect from Vegas) Graphics 9 / 10 Can you say popeye? Because that's the first thing i thought when i saw the character designs. The men have huge forearms, but that doesn't take away from the game in any way, i think it's a nice quirk that makes it more fun. Compared to today's graphics, FF7's are very bad , but so is every other 3d game from the 90's. Sound 9 / 10 Classic. I love it. This is classic Final Fantasy battle music, and it came from this game. That's what makes me love it. Final Fantasy 7 set the standard for Final Fantasies to come. Value 9 / 10 3 discs of pure goodness. There's tons of extras, summons, chocobos ( and breeding) and side quests to make this game last you a long time. Overall, FF7 is a fantastic addition and set the standard for RPGs of all kinds.
