    A fantastic RPG, not just a remake

    Final Fantasy VII is one of the most influential video game and pop culture icons of all time. It was revolutionary in its day in storytelling, graphics, and scope. I never got around to playing the original PS1 game. W... Read Full Review

    Genrally great remake but disappointing combat

    The graphics are extraordinary faithful to the original and truly pampers the senses. This is "what I had imagined it would look like"´-kind of a feel, throughout the game.With the one, minor exception of the blood... Read Full Review

    Forces you to overlook the shortcomings and appreciate greatness.

    The common narrative behind this game has been that it is the remake of an old classic and one of the best RPGs ever made, possibly the most popular entry in the most popular JRPG franchise of them all. The next thing t... Read Full Review

    One of the best game I've played

    This is one of the first Final Fantasy story I played. I always heard about the fuss of this game, being one of the best RPG of history. I think it is right, I really liked the story, the pace, the music, everything. The... Read Full Review

    "You've made me more happy than you know. And I'll always cherish what you've given me."

    I don't think I even need to begin to talk about the wild anticipation for this game once it was announced. "Final Fantasy VII," polarizing as it may be today, was a watershed moment not just for the RPG genre, but for g... Read Full Review

    FF7 is overall a great game, but it doesn't carry the complete package as well as the original and is annoying at times

    As a person who loves JRPGs and has managed to finish the whole FF collection from the first Nintendo installment up to the later ones (FF online and derivates not included). I would like to say that FF7 Remake is a bea... Read Full Review

    Meh. Mostly filler, forgettable

    The good: The battle system does a good job of blending live action with turn based. Could have used the Gambit system from 12.The rest: If it weren't a spin on FF7, it would be a mediocre game. As it is, the game is mos... Read Full Review

    Fluff that filler

    The original FF7 was as flawed as it was fun. I played through no less than three times, and never felt as exhausted as I did following the first few hours of the Remake. While I eventually managed to trudge on through t... Read Full Review
