    geez what can I say about this game...AMAZING. Best game I have played all year. Love the add ons they did (if you played the original). Fighting can be a little tough at first but once you get used to it it can be a lot of fun

    It’s alright. Party member AI is brainless, dungeons are 1hr long slogs, and there is little to no exploration. The story, characters, boss fights, and graphics are great. So overall an average game. I would say $30 is a good price for it. If you want something better buy Final Fantasy XV Royal Edition instead, it’s a fantastic game.

    Excellent remake to the beginning of a classic game. The battle system is great and the fleshing out of the main characters was awesome. I am really looking forward to what they continue to do with this story arc.

    One of the best RPGs I have ever played. This one stood out amongst the rest because of its nice graphics and great gameplay. If only the PS5 could boost the FPS I get in it right now, I would definitely buy it.

    This game is awesome. Enough nostalgia for people that loved the original but definitely a unique experience. Definitely recommend this game for any fans of the original or even a newcomer to the series. Can't wait for part 2.

    As a fan of the original, I was a little skeptical but after playing the first few hours I was hooked. Nostalgia set in and I couldn't put the controller down. For new comers, I think it's a great action rpg to start with.

    This impressive update to the classic RPG is a beautiful journey through the world of Gaia. Even tho the story only covers up to the party’s departure from Midgar it has been fleshed out and feels complete.

    Highly recommended game for Final Fantasy fans and newcomers alike. Great combat system & storytelling. My one gripe would be the camera options. It gets a little confusing at times. You will not regret buying this game.

    Although its not perfect, this is definitely the most ambitious remake ever made. A must buy for RPG fans. Only issue Im really seeing is some terrible low resolution textures in the 3rd chapter. Hoping it gets patched soon.

    I’ve played some other ff games like crisis core and 13, and I really enjoy this one. Not as open as some of the other ones, it’s more like kingdom hearts. I don’t play games much any more, but got sucked into this one.

    As a fan of the original game, this is the remake that I've been waiting for. It's not exactly like the original, but it was so much fun that I welcomed it with open arms. If you're into JRPG's, buy it and complete it

    Awesome remake of the best Final Fantasy game to date. Just annoyed that it is only a part of the original, complete game. It was over and finished all too soon. Square, we need the second one real soon!

    If you’re reading this review, just buy the game, you’re gonna love it! I loved the original, even replayed it ahead of the remake, such a good take on Midgar, Cloud, Tifa, Barrett, Aerith/Aeris and all the rest!

    Square did an excellent job on this remake of Final Fantasy VII. I highly recommend it. The game play is a bit awkward at first but you will quickly become used to it. The game is beautiful on 4K UHD tv!

    A remake indeed. A lot of aspect really made this game the best one I have in my small PS4 games collection. The redesign, the retelling and the new combat system makes it feel nostalgic and fresh at the same time
