Reviews: Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core

Final Fantasy fans know that the English version of Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core for the PSP was released recently. Does it give justice to the original or does it disappoint? Destructoid has a review:

Crisis Core is a truly new adventure, and deserves to be treated as such. As much as it will likely be enjoyed by fans of FFVII, I can also imagine gamers who missed that game playing this could become genuinely curious about going back in time to meet those old characters and learn about how their histories are connected. That's the best thing a game can do -- touch a player so effectively that their curiousity is piqued and leave them craving more. Crisis Core does a masterful job of that, and not even its technical flaws can pull it down.

The article makes it clear that Crisis Core should be treated as its own game and not be compared too much with Final Fantasy VII. This is an important point to stress because when it comes to reviews, setting expectations are vital. With Crisis Core, expect a good game and not a clone of its source material. Destructoid gave it an 8 out of 10.
