Final Fantasy VII (PlayStation, 1997)

"Quite possibly the greatest game ever made" -GameFan Magazine

I think this quote sums it right up, taken directly from the reverse side of the Final Fantasy VII CD case. This game has almost been out for ten years now, so if you somehow haven't played it yet now would be a great time to begin.

In my opinion, Final Fantasy VII's story line is worlds and worlds beyond any other RPG. Secondly, the soundtrack composed by Nobuo Uematsu is hands down the best OST created for any video game. This was the game that sparked 3-D rpg gaming for years to come.

I specifically remember walking into Frys Electronics here in Arizona right when this game was released. I had no idea what this game was but it had a neat looking cover. This is not an exaggeration; the store had a 30 foot upper shelf of all assorted PS1 games, and the entire bottom shelf was ALL ENITRELY FINAL FANTASY VII GAMES. Yes, the story actually had as many copies of Final Fantasy VII to amount for every other video game in the store combined, in the PS1 category. That's when I knew this game was something special, so I instantly purchased it and have no regrets.

If you click my me page you will see it as #1 on my favorites list.

Though I can't imagine how in the world it could be possible for someone to be into RPG console gaming and NEVER experiencing Final Fantasy VII yet, but if this is the case buy the game immediately.

I vote this game 5/5, excellent, and out of my whole game collection consisting of thousands of titles, this is the greatest game I have ever played and I highly doubt that it will ever be topped in my lifetime.

Yes, it's that good.
