I trust a Squaresoft game like a true FFVII fan would agree. And this one doesn't disappoint as much as most people say.
I forgot about most of what the game is about but I remember sleek CG cinematics and a cool protagonist heroine. If you love RPGs and wanna step into the world of horror survivals safely, then check this out as it does q... Read Full Review

Good Game at the Start, But goes downhill from there.
Parasite Eve is a "cinematic" rpg. It's a survival horror and rpg hybrid that has solid gameplay. Take out survival, since this game doesn't allow you to have a hard time. The only hard parts in this game are the last 2 ... Read Full Review

The storyline, although a little cheesy at times, will suck you in.
The storyline in Parasite Eve is definitely unique. I won't even get into it here. Because to be honest, just hearing about it kind of makes it sound boring. But it's not, it's actually addicting. The gameplay is dec... Read Full Review

While not a real technical achievement in most regards, the game still has a great feel and better writing.
Many RPGs have tried to provide a cinematic experience, especially ones made by Square. The vast majority of them rely too heavily on FMV cut scenes, pretty graphics and absurdly cheesy storylines and writing. This crimi... Read Full Review

Parasite Eve is a survival-horror title released by Sony giant Squaresoft (now Square Enix) in 1998. It received acclaim on its meshing of RPG and Survival Horror elements, sold over a million units, and attracted a fier... Read Full Review

A truly great cinematic RPG from Squaresoft
Back when Square-Enix was still Squaresoft, and turning out major hits like Final Fantasy VII and Xenogears, they also released a game quite different from these titles that slipped under the radar. That game is Parasite... Read Full Review
