    Like many of you I've been anticipating this game for years. Had it pre-ordered since 2015 I'm lucky enough to get it a week early. Initially disappointed with the game being broken down into multiple parts. And there is definitely a large amount of filler. Extended corridors and pointless side quests. But I still absolutely enjoyed this game and it was fun. The music is absolutelyLike many of you I've been anticipating this game for years.

Extended corridors and pointless side quests. But I still absolutely enjoyed this game and it was fun. The music is absolutely fantastic the composers to a amazing job. The combat system is much improved and enjoyable to play. That my favourite thing was the characters in this game are done perfectly. I find with jrpgs the dialogue normally is horrendous and takes you right out the game. But there's some genuine great voice acting and dialogue making you feel attached to the characters. In a strange way I feel a lot of throwbacks to Final Fantasy XIII game play. But in a good way. I'm still disappointed at that I think they could have fits all into one game without the pointless filler and extended corridors. With games as large as the Witcher can do it I'm sure this could have done. I've not been a fan of the recent Final Fantasy stuff. Kingdom Hearts III and Final Fantasy XV were mediocre games in my opinion but this is so much improvement let's hope we're not waiting years for the next parts.… Expand

    If you wanted a faithful adaptation this is it. First off the orginal staff is back and you can tell they put there heart and soul in this game. The graphics are amazing, the voice actors are phenomenal and walking around midgar and seeing the whole city come to life was just fantastic.

    And the battling system was surprisingly easy to get into... this is definitely not the same as FFXV,    If you wanted a faithful adaptation this is it.

    My only real complaint I had was that there wasn't much of a dialogue decision making that I was told would be apart of the game, but still I give it a 10.    … Expand

    A masterpiece... FF7 is the greatest game of all time, whuch I first time played 22 years ago and the way they managed to recreate everything is perfection. I loved the voice actors, gameplay and those beautiful graphics. Ohh and the music is incredible, they even surpassed some of the songs!

    The ending was quite different from the original, but damn epic one and I thought it was great.    A masterpiece...

    16 hours in and all I can say is that it was worth waiting so many years for this they actually pulled it off. I laughed I cried and felt every emotion in between playing this and it took me back all those years playing this on my PS One in 1998.

    People without a soul and nostalgia can complain of some linearity and some silly side quests, but what makes FFVII Remake an epic game is its respect for the source material and the story of the characters. Also, the gameplay is almost perfect in every aspect. This is the best JRPG in years, speacilly in Final Fantasy universe.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Solo necesitabamos crear la misma historia con la tecnologia actual, FF7 Remake es un gran juego que durante 35 horas te hace sentirte igual que hace 23 años, plasmando la misma magia a cada paso que damos. Hasta que lo terminas y ves que toda esa magia acumulada se desvanece en la ultima hora de juego, rompiendo completamente la historia que todos recordamos y creando algo nuevo que para lo unico que sirve es para insultar nuestros recuerdos. gracias Nomura… Expand

    Final Fantasy VII Remake is the game we've been waiting for from Square Enix for so long. Atmospheric, interesting and exciting all your attention modern jRPG with an interesting story and spectacular battles. To achieve the ideal, the project only needs more even graphics and all the content from the original release. If you were waiting for a turn-based classic with new graphics you will most likely be disappointed, since the game has changed a lot. Everyone else is happy with the release of the first really powerful single-player release from the internal Square Enix studio for many years. Especially after the failure of Final Fantasy XV.

    A good remake of the introductory part of the cult-favorite Final Fantasy VII. It improves on the original game in almost all aspects, yet lacks in scale and drops the ball at the very end.

    What matters is still intact, and that’s the heart and soul of one of the greatest stories in video game history. It’s a return to form that has felt a long time in coming, and what’s even better is that there’s still at least two more games of this quality to come...They can’t mess this up, can they?
