Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII (PS2)

Rating: 15+ Contains strong violence Theme song: Gackt - Redemption Square Enix are trying really hard to get more money out of VII it seems, although I'm not dissapointed with this game. Three years have gone by since Sephiroth tried to attack the planet with Meteor and the planet is slowly going back to normal, until Deepground a group of mako enhanced Soldiers attack the villages and cities, taking people and locking them up in containers. ...
...the help of the WRO(world regenisis organization) they manage to save some of Kalm's inhabitants. It seems that the strongest members of Deepground (the Tsviets) want something that they believe Vincent has and Vincent is slowly losing control of the demon Chaos that is inside of him. FFVII: Three years ago the planet was being sucked of her life force (mako) by a large company (Shinra). A group of terroists called AVALANCHE tried to stop them, ...

Review of Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII (PS2)

Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII was one of several new PS2 games I received for Christmas. I have been a fan of the FF, (Final Fantasy), games for a few years and have played several of the titles that have been released.

Review of Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII (PS2)

Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus is a completely different take to the game series so far. It takes place three years after the events of Final Fantasy VII and a new protagonist steps forward to take on the role of hero: Vincent Valentine who was, in the original game, a secret character. The reason why this game is unique to the Final Fantasy Series is that it is the first of its kind: a third person shooter with the elements of an RPG. It doesn't ...
...fact that it follows on from one of the best Final Fantasy stories to date. Battles occur in real-time which is naturally beneficial to this style of play as, in this case, Vincent can evade enemy fire and the controls even allow him to crouch behind objects that might hinder his opponents attacks. Vincent's MP, HP and the item panel are always up on display , even when fights aren't active and Vincent can only store a small quantity of each item. ...

Review of Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII (PS2)

This is a direct sequel to Square's flagship title Final Fantasy VII. Fans of the original will either love it or hate it - and which depends on if you liked 'Advent Children' or not. For those who don't know, 'Advent Children' was the animated film based on FFVII; it picks up about a year or so after the final events of the game and follows the main characters - Cloud and Tifa. Basically, if you liked 'Advent', then you'll probably like this, because ...
...the characters they love, rendered in really, really nice graphics. Lovers of the original game may be disappointed though, as this is not an RPG - it's a first-person-shooter, and as a rule, RPG fans tend to find FPS kinda boring. There is an extensive training sequence at the beginning, which lets you play as the young Vincent, still in his Shinra uniform, taking part in a Shinra training excercise. This is a neat introduction and great fun and ...

Review of Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII (PS2)

This game is good as an add-on to Final Fantasy 7 but no where near as good, doesnt really explain how new things come about and the aiming system needs work. Propably would make more sense if you play this after playing Final Fantasy 7 and Advent Child. ...

Review of Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII (PS2)

I a faithful fan of FF7 have recently bought a copy of this game. I first expected it to be a crappy game seeing as i had been told that the gameplay was rubbish and all of the kind of stuff people say to put you off buying it, though when I had started playing I soon realised that this was a fresh new take on the story of the FF7 saga. What makes this game worth while buy is: The focus on a lesser known character from FF7 The controls unlike ...
...admit where very good for a ps2 game The music accomponied the cutscenes well giving a fully imersive experience. *What I mean by this is that out of all of the Rpg's I have played this game was the only one that added the elements of a shoot'em'up to an RPG, to form an amazing new addition to the FF7 saga. All in all if you are a fan of Final Fantasy 7 or just a fan of Final Fantasy and your looking to buy a new game this would be the one i would ...

Review of Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII (PS2)

now this game i thought had pretty cool story line to it, it goes into depth on vincent valentines past, an also gives you abit of knowledge into his limit transformation tho it only shows two in total out of the four its good none the less, you get to see vincents first transformation on the finalfantasy 7 game an can use it wen u want so long as u have the limit item, and on the very last chapter you become chaos, vincents final limit transformation, ...
...things quicker and easier .you follow vincent through seval different missons, its not like the original final fantasys that give you the freedom to go where you want when you want. you do get lil side mission/quests to do but not as much as on the original finalfantasy's which is bit of a let down for me but i still enjoyed this game anyway. True gamers will know that the game play on this game is a mix between MetalGear and DevilMayCry. the bosses ...
