A few months back, I would have thrashed anyone who said FFVII was the best.8)
And now, just a mere months later, I have already started regarding FFVII as the best game ever. It amazes me when I come to think that how easily my opinion changed. How easily I came to regard a game I hated as the best game ever?:shock:
It is a wonder that people's minds can change so very quickly. I turned a deaf ear to those tons of FF fans calling FFVII the best. Though I haven't played any of the post-FFVII games (except FFXI),and can't say for sure, but I will really respect the game that can beat FFVII. I think that FFVIII,FFX,FFXII might be the games that might be able to.
I started wondering recently, that none of the games I have reviewed got a perfect 10. FFVI Advance got 9.7 and that was the highest I could give. FFVII I just think deserves a perfect 10 but I can't say that too clearly.:? ;)
Those who have played FFVII will know that how the story can get so muddled up and confusing, that you might lose track of what's what. I have fortunately, maintained a good track, even during the crucial flashback sequence in the Lifestream in Disc 2.:)
I must say that of all the FF's hell even from all the games, no game has got a bigger twist than FFVII.Cloud's true identity was a shocking one, but it suited the story really well.:)
I was also amazed by the amount of minigames packed into this decade old game. Snow-boarding, Motorbike and Rollercoaster shooting, Battle arena, Chocobo race, Dunking are a few to name of.
There were many emotional scenes in FFVII, but they are normally marred by the constant need to press the OK button to continue the dialogue. Aeris's death might have been emotional to many but I felt rather happy. She was firstly a low level, when I played and I also felt that she was a nuisance:evil:
The characters are superb.Their identities are perfect.
Gameplay wise the materia system is a great idea and suits the game.
I better stop here or else it will sound like a review.
I would like to tell one thing: If you wanna play FFVII, follow a guide.
HELL! I never knew that Ruby Weapon (or is it Emerald) lurks in the underwater. I was enjoying in my newly gained submarine, when I saw a dark shadow. Thinking it to be some underwater cavern I went, and bumped into Ruby Weapon (or is it Emerald)
two turns and I got wiped out. The same thing happened in the Highwind. I bumped into that @&%$#!^ Ultimate Weapon...
Whatever, I am currently working on another editorial. THANKS TO ALL YOU GUYS WHO ENCOURAGED me by appreciating the previous article.
Right ahem..so watch out for my next blog(in a few days)... cause it will contain the editorial:
