    Love this game. An old classic revisited again. Stellar story and characters, plus the updated battle system is really fun.

    This Game was already the best PSP Game of all Time. Here on Console it is even better. That is how you do a Remaster. Not to forget that amazing Story. Btw. It shows what the Switch can still do while Pokémon looks like Trash on it.

    I love this game. I also love Genesis. I hope to see him in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

    A must play for any FFVII fan! The battle system is fun, Materia fusion is great, voice acting brilliant. The best part of the game is the protagonist Zack Fair!

    Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII. Uno de los mejores juegos de PSP con la historia más hermosa. Zack siempre será uno de mis personajes favoritos y este remaster lo trae en su mejor versión. No importa en que plataforma lo juegues es excelente este titulo en Nintendo switch se ve y se mueve fenomenal, le hubiera dado un 10 si Square Enix no hubiera hecho publicidad falsa diciendo que enCrisis Core Final Fantasy VII.

    The new combat made it 10000x better than the original crisis core where you literally can't move the camera and when the DMW is always in your face.

    For a game on the PSP tiltle, there was so much pleasure and activity! Excellent improvements have been made to the aesthetics, fighting, and quality of life. Grab this gem and enjoy it if you love Final Fantasy 7 and want to understand more about Zack and Cloud.

    One of the best PSP remasters I've ever played; it's obvious from the other reviews that they are unaware of this fact.

    Looks great, battle system is pretty fun, controls are a bit strange, and gameplay is sightly repetitive. Overall a good remake but not the best game overall.

    Although the game has been well-remastered, it is still a 2007 PlayStation Portable game, so bear that in mind. Due to the fact that they haven't really updated that, dialogue is what it is. You get that with a Remaster; some of it still functions, some of it's a touch old. However, what makes this one special is that it features all of the voice actors from the FF7 Remake.

    Despite being a superb remaster, especially for the PC, the game is still a 2007 PSP title. But that's what a Remaster gives you. But what's cool about this one is that it features all of the voice actors from the FF7 Remake. If you enjoy the FF7 Remake, I would definitely recommend it.

    Looking at the entire game, Crisis Core is an extremely important title for the Final Fantasy series, but a lot of its luster was lost in time or simply better realized in games that came after it. The main crucifix of Reunion is making a great remaster on top of a flawed gem of a title. For fans of the original, Reunion is the perfect remaster, while other Final Fantasy and action fans would probably be better with a full remake to realize the premise potential.

    While Crisis Core‘s shorter length is surprising, given the depth of the story it tells, the hooks it digs in are well worth unearthing. The trio tale of Angeal, Sephiroth, and Genesis is a relatively hidden side chapter of the FF7 Compilation, but it provides a deep, emotional core that will likely resonate in Rebirth and beyond.

    We found in Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII Reunion a title that surpasses what we can consider a remaster, offering a deluxe visual revamp with engaging chapter-based gameplay that is ideal for the Nintendo Switch. Its structure may be a little repetitive at times, but it's still a very enjoyable ride for the fans.
