Although I really dont think it will be great I can see it getting an 8 in the reviews.

I can see 5/10, 55/100, that area. I voted for 6/10, though.

they seem to be milking FF7 quite a bit. the cinematics look quite good. has anybody seen any AMVs or cutscenes of it yet? it seems quite good. and there seems to be a hint of continuation after this one due to... a scene after the credits.

From what I've seen of the cutscenes, they will closely resemble FFAC in clarity and detail. The biggest gripe right now with the game is that the controls are inverted and the camera is too close to Vincent, making it hard to see past him.

if those are the only problems, that's not too bad. usually games with first person/third person POV has the opt of inverting the controls and several angles for the POV.. maybe that may be something to add on/fix later.

I think it'll do alright, it's allready gotten pretty good reviews in japan. Then again, who actually wants a FF VII action-shooter game?

Japanese Version Reviews. I've seen alot of 7.5/10 and 7/10. I even saw a 38%


By the way, in case someone didn't hear, they are fixing all their mistakes from the Japanese Version. For once i'm happy to not get it first

Are you talking about the Japanese FF IV with Cecil and Kain and Rosa, or the American FF IV? I thought FF IV (Japanese w/ Cecil and Kain and Rosa) was one of the best.

american 4 and jap 4 are teh same. to me it's the worst game i've EVER played.

Why? Because it lacks eye-candy? Or bouncing gargantuan breasts to oogle at?

Trigunzero
06-28-2006, 05:07 AM
no because the characters were lame and the story didn't appeal to me. i'd rather play a barbie game than FF4.

Prak

Characters and story again? Geez, you have retarded criteria for deciding a game's quality. Does gameplay mean nothing in your world? Most of us with a grain of sense look at that as a massively important factor. We also understand that games had not reached the same level at that time as they have now.

By your logic, you must also think Super Mario World was a bad game. Same with Super Metroid. After all, neither of those had much of a story at all and they were from the same era as FFIV. Of course, everyone else can see that you would be entirely wrong.

PontiusPilate

I agree with Prak, games like Mario and Metroid had good enough gameplay to not need a good storyline. I actually consider FF to be the total opposites of those games since they rely on story/sound/characters/graphics to make their games good because lets face it turn battle was cool... 7 years ago. Now it's just boring

I also see where Trigun is coming from since i wouldn't call 32bit turnbased battles anything special.

i gave it a 6/10 cause I honestly think a FF shooter is pretty dumb and I still don't get why vincent has is own game and other really good characters don't have their own game, like freya 4 instace

Watching some of the gameplay it reminded me of a more cartoonish Devil May Cry type game.

Which sounds good to me, but there is too much with FFVII.
SE didn't really have to do this.

I voted 6/10

Here's a feed on The Magicbox about it's online play...


- Square Enix announced they will shut down the online server for the PS2 third person shooter Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII in Japan on September 29, 2006. Online multiplayer match will no longer be accessible after this time, but the game can still be played offline.

I vote 2/10... because I actually played it. :(

What the fuck? :o Are they seriously gonna shut it down for good?

Desert Wolf

Damn someone vote for 8/10 quick!

That is absolutely hilarious. I don't think I've ever heard of a company cutting off support for a game that quickly before.

maybe they thought it'd be stupid to see a dozen vincent's duelling each other.

Valerie Valens

If that's the case then it's incredibly stupid. Haven't they heard of custom skins and models?

As far as i know you play as Deep Ground soldiers against some kind of civilian resistance.

Still, sounds shit.

ATB is what made final fantasy and I'll be damned to have it any other way. FF online is usally dull to begin with good thing they shut it down.

No, ATB definately didnt "make" final fantasy. I'd go into a rant about why ATB sucks, but i've already explained it in previous forums

Innovation made Final Fantasy, and that's what they're attempting to progress with the more recent games. Sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn't, and I think we'll be seeing a lot more of the "doesn't work" now that Sakaguchi is no longer in the picture. I know that he wouldn't approve of DoC.

I expect we'll all take an interest in Mistwalker RPG's, especially Blue Dragon, and Final Fantasy will just become another one of "those" titles.

All I can say is it will be pretty good. I voted 8/10.

The aiming system is a pain to control due to bad n doggy camera.The only good thing about vthe game,like most recent FF games,is its cut-scenes.Oh boys oh boys.............................................. ............2/10
