Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII is the fourth entry in the critically acclaimed compilation of Final Fantasy VII, which spans multiple platforms and delves into the intricate world players first experienced in FFVII.
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII for the PSP™ is an action-RPG revolving around the story of Zack, who had already passed on to the Lifestream in FFVII. The mysteries left behind from FFVII will finally be revealed in this exciting chapter.
Crisis Core has action- and menu-based elements. The new battle system is known as Digital Mind Wave, or "DMW", and revolves around a series of reels at the upper left corner of the screen which spin continuously as long as there is SP left to consume. Each rotate independently and upon lining up the three reels of the same character and value, a power-up or a "Power Surge!" will be rewarded to Zack.
The player will have full control over Zack when moving around, and can rotate the camera with the left and right triggers. Every now and then, a random encounter battle will occur. The battle takes place on the same screen as regular movement, with no transition or loading.
one of the greatest Final Fantasy is an awesome game, it's one of the game that popularize RPG system, I had FF since FF VI and continuing still. This is a game that a gamers shall not missed
Just Great I had never played any FF game before this one. So I was concerned if I don't understend the gamepley or the general story of the game. But since this game is about the beginning of all FF VII series, I decided to give it a shot.
I'll try to cut it short. This game's most definitely deserves to played at least once. Gameplay, story, graphics are all perfect. I am not that much of PSP player, but according to my latest save data I've spent 69 hours playing Crisis Core :)
I wish game had both English and Japanese language options (I got the US verison). But like most of other Japanese games it doesn't. This is the only thing I can say as a minus about the game.
A gem in the PSP library Crisis Core is a compelling look back at a very minor character in the cast of Final Fantasy VII. This was a smart move by Square Enix I believe, as it's let them have a whole lot of creative control and potential to craft a memorable and nostalgic story as they have here.
Zack is a fascinating character and a rare breed in the JRPG; he's not an angst ridden, confused teenager. The spectator find themselves instantly liking Zack and his gun-ho attitude and like I said above, is a refreshing change to the normal character types you find in JRPG's nowadays.
The combat is an interesting blend of real time and turn based mechanics, allowing you to cue up attacks from a list and watch them play out instantly. Whilst you initially feel out of control at first, you quickly come to grips with it and the combat shines out as a very enjoyable part of the game; a good thing considering how much there is of it!
There is plenty of content here, the story is engaging and memorable and the presentation is fantastic. The only real drawback is the difficulty; it's simply too easy once the player is accustomed to the combat system.
No title a very well made game.takes full advantage of psp console power. and makes you understand certain events which happened in between advent children movie and final fantasy 7 orignal game.tells you the link between jenova and sephiroth.
