Not Bad |
| David Brockwell from UK - Isle of Wight says (24/Feb/2001): |
The game is good i must say but i think there is too much fighting you get to a point where you can't get past them, somtimes i feel like putting this in the bin. I have not played the new ones but i have seen them and they look better don't know about the fighting. You have to be quite good at this game to get past all the fighting there are no cheats as such for this game too so i don't stand a chance with this game i love the story line thats one thing i like, its like your there in the game.

A great beginning to a great saga!!! |
| Dekar from Charlotte, USA says (2/Mar/2001): |
This game has a great list of qualities. Magic in total has great detail. Fantastic plot, extensive list of characters, lots of FMV sequences. Best sound/music of its kind. The boss battle is by far the best. The music fits into the occasion, and it is nicely selected. Final Fantasy 7 has excellent gameplay, it is very interactive filled with lots of different emotions such as (spoiler) when Aeris, or Aerith dies, and also when at the end of the whole game. Final Fantasy 7 is by far one of the longest games on Playstation. FF7 will keep you entertained for hours with Chobobo racing/raising, Battle Arena, and snowboard and motorcycle mini-games. Final Fantasy 7 is the most original of all the FF games. During the beginning of the game, Cloud (the main character) gets to cross-dress, has the most original music in its series so far. I would like to say that I reccommend this game to anyone who is buying their first Playstation game. This deserves a 10.

Who is Spear-a-moth?Read on to find out. |
| Chris and Adam from Donegal, Ireland says (3/Mar/2001): |
Were back!!! Funny enough we reveiwed FF8 first because we had nothing better to do.Now we have finished FF7 again(in 2 weeks) we are well equiped to write this review.People who dis the graphics of FF7 really have no standard of gaming.It enhances the fantasy aspect of the game.People who complain about the post-modern punk graphics of the game can't see the game for what it is...or they are idiots(like our girlfriends,don't tell them we said that)The plot is breathtaking,better than a Hollywood production.It revolves around a group of eco-terorists,the mega evil company Shinra,and the worlds greatest soilder,now presumed dead Sephiroth (or spear-a-moth as C.Q once called him.) For a few hours at the start of the game,the game is limited to the city of Midgar,but latter expands to a massive world-map.As the game progresses,you get an insight into the characters past.At the end off disk 1 a major charecter dies,but we won't spoil it for you.(aeris R.I.P.)whoops sorry.If you didn't want to find that out you shouldn't have read the last line (no more spoilers...hopefully) It also has entertainment aspects such as chocobo-breeding,raceing and betting.Many of these aspects can be found in the Gold Saucer e.g snow-boarding,submarine challange,and the greatest game ever,Mog House(ha ha ha hardly) Finally the FMV of sephiroth walking through the flames of the burning Nibelheim village left us wide-eyed and amazed.

Great game. Better than FF8 |
| Witchywoman from Jackson Michigan, USA says (7/Mar/2001): |
This game rocks!! I loved the story line and every thing else about it. I loved the cute Chocobos. I loved the Characters and EVERYTHING!!! FF8 was good, but it just wasn't the best. Too many movie sequences and the Gfs take too long. FF7 IS the best game out there by far!!!!

Nothing compares to FFVII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| SJ Cecil from Archdale, NC (USA) says (10/May/2001): |
I beat this game, along with every weapon, back in late 97. It is the sole reason that I purchased a playstation and why I cast my NES to the wolves!! There is not another rpg, FF or otherwise, that compares to Final Fantasy VII. It has all the elements of a great rpg... graphics, music and storyline. The game is massive, the Gold Saucer amusement park is a game within a game where you can snow board, shoot baskets and bet on yourself at the Chocobo race track! You can even fight one on one against various monsters and bosses from the game at the battle arena. There are so many side quests, so much leveling up and the Emerald Weapon..... talk about insane level of difficulty! If you can beat this guy, you'll beat the final boss in 6 turns or less!!!!! To fully appreciate this game, complete all the quests and beat Emerald and Ruby Weapon, you will spend 80 to 100hrs playing it! This game is on greatest hits now, so you can enjoy the greatest FF of all for $19.99!!!! Buy it, buy it, buy it!!!!!!! Check out the hundreds of ratings this game has gotten, you will not be dissapointed!

The best game EVER to hit the PlayStation!!!!!!!!! |
| James Jolliff from Tucson, Arizona USA says (4/Jun/2001): |
I have beat the game over and over again. I am working on beating Emerald weapon right now. This game has all the qualities of the best game. A good fighting system, graphics, ans the sstory line is great and easy to follow. There are a lot of Items to pick up on and the secrets seem to never come to an end. To whom is ever reading this, i suggest that you buy this game a.s.a.p.!!!!!!! Trust me, you won't regreat it!!!!
|
No other game will ever beat this! |
| Joe.S.W from England, Birmingham, Warwickshire says (4/Jul/2001): |
Well what can I say? Absolutely brilliant! I have been playing this game since it came out and still enjoy playing it now. The music is fantastic, the story line is great and the graphics are pretty good to considering how old it is. Everything about it is superb i would give it a infinity/infinity. Such a great game if you ain't got it yet get your fat ass up and buy it on platinum it is avalable for only £15.00 WOW!

Greatest Game of all Time! |
| A gamer from Juneau, Alaska, United States says (26/Aug/2001): |
This game completely changed my veiw of gaming! You start out as Cloud, a mercenary in a team of rebels against an evil corporation, the Shinra. Other figures include: Barret, leader of AVALANCHE (the rebels), a huge black man With a gun arm; Tifa, a cute martial arts master & Clouds childhood 'freind'; Aeris, a flower lady with blood of the ancients (you'll figure it out); Red XIII, a cat with a flaming tail, scarred by war & lab tests, Native American styled;
Yuffie, a theif and ninja and BRAT; Cait Sith, a Shinra spy in a R/C stuffed body; Vincent, an awesome vampire-like dude with a tragic past, and Cid, a former Shinra pilot. Bad guys include Sephiroth, the most powerful human on the planet with a samurai sword called Masamune; Rufus, leader of Shinra; 4 shinra Executives(Scarlet, Hiedegger,
Reeve(Cait Sith), and Palmer), and Hojo, a mad scientist and Sephiroth's father. Best in graphics, storyline, and challenge. You gotta get this game!!!

final fantasty 7 all time classic |
| A gamer from Waynesburg , PA ,USA says (23/Oct/2001): |
I know final fantasy seven is a old game. And compared to some of the fancy new playstation 2 games is left in the dust.Go into any store that sells it and you will see a green strip on the edge. It says Greatest hits. And with being the most innovative final fantasy to date.And also selling the most copys of any final fantasy game on the market. I think its safe to say that it is a classic. From it's awsome materia system to its cool FVM cut scenes it's very innovative.I also think the americans who have bought the game should thank square. I mean they put extra FMVs and even gave us the Ruby and Emerald weapon fights. I thought it was cool that the U.S audience got extra stuff. Also all the final fantasys i've played have had a enthralling story. So in a sense the final fantasy games cover all medias movies,books,video games.I also love the chocobo breeding/racing(although chocobo racing was dissipointing). Square does need to work on the difficulty levels of there games I wisked right thru the game the first time. Other than that one element the sound,gameplay,replayability,and graphics all get a ten in my book.It is one of the best games i've ever played and that is what makes final fantasy seven a all time classic game.

so-so game |
| Darryl from EastStroudsberg says (14/Dec/2001): |
is game was great the only real problems was with the sound a storyline the story lines got confusing first u start off as a mersonary helping the AVLELANCH than u start to go aftr Pres Shinra than all of a sudden out of no where sepheroith comes and kills him. as for the graphics thay were kinda good except on the world map cloud looked like a child even thou his 21and they dident even have a mouth . the sound was freaking cool but after a while it got annoying when ur on the 3rd disk all u hear is that same music over and over and over again its gonna piss u off .the fun facter in this game was great no matter how much the music got on my nerve and the graphics pissed me off i dident wont to put the controller down becouse i wonted to see what was gonna happen nextto the charteters and the thing that i loved about this game was the limits like the omislash and the kick < remove me > at $$ villian in sepheroith i remember thinking how cool it would be to cotroll him

THIS GAME IS THE BEST! |
| John K from USA says (19/Feb/2002): |
Ya so the graphics may be bad, but hey the story line is so Sweet! this game is by far the best one ever! at the beginning I thought I just had to blow the place up! but when I got the the part where ruffus died, I got the picture. this was not what I expected. I can guess most FF games. but not this one. I can't belive I almost killed Airies :( amazing game, but know the most recent one came out. it makes the FFVII graphics look like a child did it :( to bad, cause this is the Coolest game on the face of the planet!!

The Game of the Century Just Brill!! |
| Jamie Mcknight from Birkenhead, England says (23/Mar/2002): |
This game is a must for all you action and adventure people out there. The graphics, the weapons, the battles find out all of the secrets to this game. This is the best game in the world, it will take time to complete but in the end its worth it
|
Best damn RPG out to date! |
| Paul from Elmira, New York says (23/Apr/2002): |
I've got to admit, I didn't understand this game the first time I played it. I never played an RPG before FFVII but once I started I was hooked. I stated playing FF7 in the winter time in 1998. The graphics amazed me, and the story line was astounding! I still play FF7 to this day! You can never grow tired of this game because there is so much to discover, such as the 24 different enemy skills, or master materias. The battles are awesome as you play through the story line, but get rather simple when you get to level 99! I give this game a ten. Being as old as it is, the graphics are great! No comparisons by any margin! This game is a must have for any video game enthusiast!

A Revolutionary Game |
| Chrono Serge from Warner Robins, GA USA says (7/May/2002): |
Final Fantasy VII, the first on the PS one console, revolutionized the series and made the PS one the leader in video game consoles. Okay, it had some help from other games, but FF VII still had a hand in doing it. With FF VII’s stunning graphics, unforgettable characters, and amazing FMVs and cutscenes, it made everyone who played it fall in love with the Final Fantasy series. The new and amazing materia system was a new approach to the franchise, and it is, in my opinion, the best way that Squaresoft has represented magic in the series.
The storyline starts off with a rebel group called AVALANCHE hiring a mercenary named Cloud to help them blow up Mako reactors, which suck out the planet’s life force, Mako. The story grows deeper and more conflicts arise the further along you get into the story. Many new characters are met, better magic and limit breaks are acquired, and unanswered questions are answered, even if the answer isn’t exactly what you were looking for. Unpredictability and the emotions that the characters pour out make it one of the favorites among fans of the series.
If you don’t own this masterpiece, it is imperative that you get it into your collection. And with it costing less than $20, there is absolutely no reason to pass this game up. Go out to your nearest gaming store (Wal-Mart is the most reliable place) and pick this one up! You’ll be glad you did.
Games are rated on a 5-point scale. Each point is associated with a separate category, which are: G: graphics; L: load times; R: replay value; P: playability; and G: gameplay. Each category can receive either a full point (1.0), one half of a point (0.5), or no points (0). Get the picture?

FF7 will be hard to beat |
| A gamer from Australia, Victoria says (6/Jul/2002): |
i couldn't put this game down. i have been playing it for three years strait. though it can get boring trying to get to places and do things but the story line is so good that you just have to keep going to see what happens next, another great thing about FF7 is all the smaller story lines and games you can play inside the game and how hard it is to find them. This game really took RPG to another level with the way you have to find a lot of the secrets so you can go forward in the game. (like have to find all the summon metiria and get you limit braks) without this i think i woulnd of played it again because i wouldn't have to look for anyting. this game would be near to imposible to clock because you will always forget something so i you have to play it again.

great game |
| mohammed hassan from U.A.E says (14/Jul/2002): |
i can understand that FF7 is one of the best RPG's ever but what i can not under stand how alot of peoble say that FF8 or FF9 are the wors in the series. i am a huge fan for FF8 but i think also that FF7 is a great game, and am not talking her about graphics only also the story linse.

the best RPG yet and possibilly ever |
| me from Rochester, NY says (21/Jul/2002): |
FFVll is the best ever. plain and simple even with all the new stuff FFX doesn't even tuch the quality of this game. the story is soo interesting I've beat it 5 or more times and still can't get enough. the materia is great because you can make a person do only one thing or be all around. The gold saucer is the best place in eny FF ever. Midgar is one of the coolest cities. Ican not say enything bad about this game
