 Pretty Cool March 26, 2008

I just picked up this game today and have only played for about an hour. If you are like me and have been put off by the "so-so" spin-offs that many games seem to be emulating these days, this one seems to regain some notoriety.
First, the cutscene graphics are simply amazing. If you liked Advent Children, this game emulates the same standard that that film had set. The gameplay graphics are similar to that of Dirge of Cerberus. For the PSP, they are stunning (imo).
The only qualm with the game that I have after an hour of gameplay, is the gameplay. The cutscenes are where this game shines. You basically run around hitting the X button killing guys and monsters and little numbers shoot out all over the place, which by all accounts are basically meaningless in this type of game. To put it bluntly, it is as if Square took the crappiness of Dirge of Cerberus with the awesomeness of God of War; the end result of this combination is mediocrity personified in a game that is derived from a classic.
I think that if you liked FFVII, then you will like the story aspect of this game. To me, it is worth the mediocre gameplay to see the amazing scenes that follow.
All in all, it is not that bad.
The REAL-DEAL Final Fantasy Game on PSP... March 26, 2008

This game is simply awesome and yes, finally something that cures the long wait for Final Fantasy 13 to be released on PS3.
Forget those cartoonish looking FF series released on the DS - and medicore FF on PSP, or the sad sequel X-2 - This is the closest to a real FF game since FF12. Top notch graphics, FF-worthy storyline, familiar characters and old acquitances from FF VII... and thank goodness a real FF battle system - ONLY BETTER - with real-time actions!
The action portion (attacks, dodge, block) are real-time actions where you go up to a person and attack, or press square or triangle to dodge or block - while some magic and healing are minor menu flipping in the lower corner. I do have one minor complain if anything - sometime in the heat of battle it gets too hectic look at the menu to see exactly which menu you are on, the result is you might have pressed "Potion" a couple times when you meant to press "attack". Well, wasting 100 gil, but no biggie.
Besides the usual FF storyline, yet another action-based side-quest "Misson" system! (love action based side-quest such as hunts and missions, hate card-playing) You can perform many missions right from the beginning to gather materia and other rare items, and if you can fight through the game, yes you can fight through the missions! Completing one mission usually unclocks serveral others, talk about motivation!
Overall, about 7 hours into play and not yet bored one minute. Just an awesome game, and yes Cloud, nice to see you too. Overall, a real big FF game on the smaller PSP screen. Now I am definitely looking forward to FF XIII on PS3.

It was a little shakey at first getting used to the different control aspects of this game vs the other past games but after you play it for a while you not only get used to it but for me the game has become super addicting; is defiently one of the greatest PSP games out there to date and I would recommend it to anyone thats looking for a good one and you don't have to be a fan of the series to really enjoy the game.
Awesome Introduction March 30, 2008

Well i have never played a Final Fantasy game until this one. My boyfriend who is a Final Fantasy fan got this for me to try and i have to say i love it. The leveling up things sometimes does get annoying but i have gotten use to it.I love the graphics on the game and i have to say that this has gotten me into the Final Fantasy Series. I know the basics of the other games but this one makes me want to go play the others so i can see the story after this one.
