Product Description

In a nutshell:
Revisit the world of Final Fantasy VII three years on from the end of the original classic game. Take control of the mysterious ex-Turk Vincent Valentine in this wholly original third person action adventure.

The lowdown:
Part of the ¿¿¿Compilation of Final Fantasy VII¿¿¿, that already includes Advent Children and a mobile game, this is the first official follow-up to the series¿¿¿ most popular entry on a home console. You may have heard though, that it didn¿¿¿t go down so well when it was released in Japan earlier in the year. To Square Enix¿¿¿s credit though the game¿¿¿s being given a thorough revamp for its Western release so that it¿¿¿s faster and much easier to control, with a lot more combos and aerial moves and a slicker first person view. The game was originally intended to be a role-playing version of Half-Life, so hopefully the new Western version will properly realise this goal.

Most exciting moment:
Shoot ¿¿¿em-ups like this are unpopular in Japan so just seeing a developer of Square Enix¿¿¿s standing attempting a game like this is exciting. It even includes an option to use a mouse and keyboard as a controller, just like a PC shooter (although the Japanese game¿¿¿s online mode is being removed).

Since you ask:
Apparently Square Enix see Final Fantasy VII (and XIII) as twenty year long projects so even after the Crisis Core game on PSP this may not be the last time you see Cloud Strife and co. in action.

The bottom line:
One of Final Fantasy VII¿¿¿s most obscure characters stars in the most unlikely spin-off ever.
HARRISON DENT
