First of all I've never played FFVII, at least not yet...

Does Crisis Core's story compare to the other 3D Final Fantasy's and/or any other console RPG (name them please)? Just to set a recent reference, how would you compare the story based on something like Lost Odyssey? Please explain your answers a little, thanks...

I have the game now, and i've watch all the cutscenes on youtube w/ eng sub(It's 140 minutes long). Crisis core have an beautiful story, it's emotionally gripping, sometimes it will touched your emotion, makes you happy, or sad. The story will also show you how cloud becomes a man(well sort of). The story is mainly about bond, friendship, pride. genesis is the villain in the game, but he isn't evil, he just have that I do i want attitude. IMO, Story is much better than lost odyssey. The story gets to the main point, Crisis core can rival mainstream final fantasy game(story-wise). It's the best jrpg for Q1 2008

Anyway, sorry that it wasnt helpful. Thats just my opinion. If you want, i can give you a link to watch all the cutscenes w/ eng sub.

Depends on what you consider "good". It blends rather nicely with the story from FF VII, but if you are not very familiar with it, you might not appreciate every little detail. Gameplay-wise, it's more of a Kingdom Hearts-type thing rather than FFVII.

I think from the reviews, it has the Final Fantasy quirks, but still, it looks like it's one of the better stories for FF in a long time. I think it's mostly due to its character driven nature with Zack.
