"Honestly? Disappointing..."
2 stars"

While I am usually an epic fan of all things “Final Fantasy,” “Dirge of Cerebus” left a lot to desire.

I enjoyed the clean, and tidy story line, which answered a lot of questions, as well as creating new questions, leaving a lot of room for a sequel. Although, it didn't make up for the games' shortcomings.

The experience points goals were far too out of reach for the length of the game, which played almost like a train simulator. I felt like I was stuck on a rail way line. The rare times that you do get some freedom, it's more like you are stuck in the area untill you figure out a puzzle, and get the hell out of the room. Once you have killed everything in a room, there's nothing else to do. No boxes to open, and no NPC's to talk to.

The equipment seems like it was an afterthought, not making any real difference to the game, at all.

As a shooter fan? Yeah, you should borrow it off a friend, or hire it from a DVD store. As a “Final Fantasy” fan? Give it a complete miss.

"Good fun"

I am enjoying this game. It is not as complex as other Final Fantasy games I have played.There is a lot more fighting and you can't control the way the game plays out but it is still fun.

"Great game"
4 stars"

Well I've played everything from the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII and this one may not be the best, but it certainly is worth your money as a collectors item. The gameplay is much different to Crisis Core or FF7 but it is different and the storyline does reveal a lot of answers about the Pre-FF7 era.

I loved the story, years after Final Fantasy VII, you get to play Vincent Valentine one of the characters you had to find in Final Fantasy VII, not the longest game, the gameplay was fun but felt to much like it was trying to copy Devil May Cry. With familar faces some great battles still worth a buy in my books

"Truly epic!"
5 stars"

Really great game!rpg at its best must have for final fantasy lovers and true gamers a++++
