I am a HUGE Final Fantasy VII fan. I was glad when i heard that another game of FFVII was coming out. I was completely satisfied with the entire gameplay and story. Zach Fair was always hinted at in FFVII and i was wanting to know the background character and why he was so important to Cloud's person. In this game you meet a lot of the people of FFVII and find out some of the reasons why the Turks are after him and how those "brothers" in Advent Children came around. Genesis, Angeal, and Zack Fair are very memorable characters. If you just play the game you'll love the story and where it ends. The gameplay is a lot like Kingdom Hearts and at first is a little difficult to get used to but you end up loving it after a while. A great feature is the DMW Reel. I never knew what DMW stood for but, it worked pretty nicely in my experience with it. The limit breaks are great and range from levels 1-5. All of them are very useful. Make sure you take your time with all the different missions. always look for chests during the missions because they sometimes hold important items. Side quests are also important in getting you summons and character change limit breaks on the DMW. Materia fusion is another great addition as it lets you explore new materia like darkness. and you can create some pretty cool materia. The level up system can be a little challenging because it is based on wether or not you get three 7's (777) on the DMW reel while you fight. It happens a lot more often then you think, but at times it can be frustrating. You'll get use to it. Just play the game for yourself. It's great, a lot of fun, and fills in some questions about a few things, but also leaves a few. Play it soon! This is a must get if you are a HUGE FFVII fan like myself!
