Is It Really Fair To Keep Calling It Final Fantasy 7?Isn’t it really its own series once it has four games, a movie and an anime? We’re looking at the original game, Before Crisis, an upcoming PSP game called Crisis Core, and the subject of this article, Dirge of Cerberus. Plus Dirge of Cerberus has a mobile phone version, but we won’t count that. » Read More

Also, the game is fully translated, despite the Japanese in the supplied screenshots. Ignore that.

They could have traded any number of features that never really come in useful for this (jumping, for instance) Blasphemy! Where's that rating system everyone was talking about a while back anyhow? I'd like to see how Llava's review measures up with those on Game Rankings (Overall score there is 59%). |

Well if 59% is an F, I give it a B+.
I'm liking it more as I continue to play it, though, so my initial score probably would've been a C.
And I would agree that removing jumping is blasphemy, but it really never comes in usefully. Most of the things you'd think you could jump over are artificially taller than they really are. So, for instance, you can't jump off a ledge if it has a railing, even if the railing is only really about two feet off the ground. So if I can't jump over hardly anything, do I really need to jump?

My opinion: I give it a C-. It has no heart whatsoever.

Wait. Why is this in the wrong forum?

Man, those are some blocky-ass, low-res textures on the walls and crates in that screenshot.  |

Game needs more meat, less jumping. Jumping just makes Vincent's cape flap, near as I can tell. I have not dodged shit so far. It's perfect for my Final Faggy friend Killjoy, who got giggles anticipating Advent Children. But for someone like me, no. If I was a cutscene slut, yeah. The customization is nice, but the run-and-gun is just bleh. Kinda reminds me of The Bouncer for some reason.
The game looks totally awesome, though. Well, most of it does, fire and occasional lowres textures don't.
Memory capsules, jeez. Thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster for gamefaqs.com and the jobless teens that fill it up with information.
Feel free to use my new term "Final Faggy". I didn't get much traction with "angrify" but I feel good about this one.

My bad, I forgot you don't have access to that other place. I made a copy to place you can see. |

The memory capsules are just for unlocking cutscenes, though.
I felt I'd seen enough cutscenes, I don't need to have them at my fingertips at any given moment.

Since cutscenes are about 75% of the game, I'd feel cheated if I didn't unlock them. We are probably in agreement on a basic level, however I carry a great deal of spite and bile in my belly and will get them all. |

I've been thinking about this one, and I just don't think it flows well. However, a slight edit to "Final Fagotry" could save it. |

Just need to determine the adjective form now so I can use it as a personal insult. Hey, I started playing FFVII again last night! |
