Editorial Review
Long recognized as role-playing games par excellence, the Final Fantasy series gets a technological makeover in this installment (and series debut on the PlayStation). Shedding the two-dimensional graphics and limited sound capabilities of its predecessors, Final Fantasy VII features lush 3-D graphics, beautifully animated "movie" sequences, and soundtrack-quality music. Coupled with the game's intricate storyline, endearing characters, and immense yet highly imaginative world, these new advancements make for a quite an engrossing experience. The story of Final Fantasy VII centers around a solider named Cloud Strife, who joins forces with Avalanche, a group of resistance fighters, to take down an evil mega-corporation known as Shinra. (The fate of the world hangs in the balance, of course.) Truly epic in scope, this four-disc game requires a considerable amount of time to complete---this reviewer gladly gave up over 80 hours of his life to finish it. But it's definitely a rewarding adventure that every PlayStation owner should consider undertaking, especially since it's now one of the low-priced "Greatest Hits" titles. --Joe Hon Pros:
- Intricate and absorbing storyline with endearing characters
- Immense and highly imaginative game world
- Special battle system
- Beautifully animated movie sequences
Cons:
- Your friends and family may feel neglected

Final Fantasy VII, still beats FFVIII July 2, 2000
Actually, I am writing this review as a way to reminisce. I bought Final Fantasy VII the day that it was released, you got it, 1997. It was the first RpG I had ever played and I could not stop playing it. Being the first RpG I had played I thought I was getting close to the end of disc one (hehe, stupid me) the first time that you visit the Chocobo Ranch! The story is great, period. Better than Final Fantasy VIII's, that's for dang sure. The graphics were good for their time and still hold up pretty well. The limit gauge idea was a goood addition that they should have stuck to in FF8 and the characters actually had backgrounds and... well... character! The only character I found to be bland and lackluster was Tifa but that's only because she never really played a huge role in the story or any of it's sidequests (the two secret characters are more developed). The key to a good RpG is story. NOT graphics. FFVII could have looked like FFV and I would have still benn impressed with the story/game overall. I've played through FF7 three times, getting all of the sidequests and all of the secrets and the game still apeals to me. I'm working on my fourth. Buy it.

This Game Is What An RPG Should Be! June 28, 2000

All in all, this is the best RPG that I have ever played. This game has it all! First off, this game has some the best graphics featured in a Playstation roleplaying game. Most importantly, FF7 has an excellant and very deep storyline that will keep you busy playing your playstation for weeks. Also, the gameplay is excellant with a nicely set up item menu, which has been one of the back bones of the Final Fantasy series. Most importantly, this game is long enough and deep enough to give you weeks of entertainment. No wonder this game is a Playstation classic.
Wow. Period. June 19, 2000

This game may be 3 years old, but that doesn't mean it can't be a QUINTILLION times better than Final Fantasy 8 (yuk). The storyline, the playability, it all adds up to be the best game ever. Final Fantasy 8 had cinimatics a half-notch better, but only by a hair. The movie in FFVII will utterly amaze you. The storyline is much more endeepening and complex than the Final Fantasy 8 story, and revives some of the old features in previous games, such as the near infinite combinations of materia (orbs that enable you to use magic) accessories, weapons, and armour. The people @ Squaresoft can beat FF8 in 10 hours, because it is so SHORT (don't let the 4 discs fool you, they go by QUICK). I haven't met a bigger villain than Sephiroth, the king of all videogame villains. He looks indestructable at a glance, but you will push him over in the 3rd disk. Materia=Strategy. This game=strategy. The two exclusive American-Version monsters, Diamond WEAPON and Ruby WEAPON are definitely the game's toughest challenge. You will grow to know and love the characters, and understand them like family and friends. Another thing, be sure to have some tissues handy. It gets a little sad somewhere in the game In closing, you'll love this game. The storyline is deep enough for hardcore gamers to get saturated into it, and understandable enough for someone like ME to get it (I'm not even 13 yet! ) Anyway, this game MORE than deserves 5 stars. Too bad I can't give it six...If this game isn't great, why did I write such a long review. And this review is not far-fetched at all. The game is 3 cds, is cheap ($20.00), and took me 60 hours to beat the game (kill Sephiroth and save the world), and 90 hours to get all the bonuses and everything else.
THIS GAME ROCKS June 17, 2000
this is the coolest final fantasy game you will be absorbed the strange and twisting plot trust me it gets REALLY weird in the 2nd and 3rd discs
