No one mentioned this? dude, wtf? The PSP's second biggest game this year? Well it's weird but so far (about 4 hours in... all played last night) I really like it. It might even beat out GoW:CoO for the best looking PSP gane, has the Kingdom Hearts look to it but the full FFVII world in 3D. Voice acting is generally good, Zack is a little whiny but then he looks like a pretty boy so you can't expect too much I guess. The music is pretty good, FFVII vs. Metal-esc music. The remixed victory theme is awesome.
The realtime/RPG combat takes a bit of getting used, and sucks for the first while since basically all you do is mash the X button and occasionally hit the Square button to dodge. Now that I'm getting more spells and abilities it's starting to become a bit more fun. Lots of little encounters though, thank god it doesn't need to load up another battle screen every time or else...
I'm not huge on the whole DMW, slot machine thing in battle... sure it's nice getting all my HP refilled or getting some kick ass attack but since it's random and I have no control over it at all... it's kinda of weird.
Basically, this is a big SE ****tease for an FFVII remake and the way it looks, even a PSP remake would look pretty awesome.
