Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion is a perfect example of a remaster done right, as the game brings Zack's story to a new generation of consoles in a way that both preserves the original's experience and improves upon it in every way, thanks to the addition of a few new mechanics and features, as well it's stunning overall presentation.
Crisis Core Reunion is the prequel that if you haven't played, then you absolutely have to recover and this operation is just for this, to aesthetically insert this chapter in line with the modernization work of the remake of Final Fantasy VII and add a piece for the future of the relative remake. The defects it carries with it are those of a game that - on balance - was released in 2007 on a portable console.
Crisis Core: Reunion is much better than expected. it provided authentic content for players with great graphics and combat system. It's still a must-play masterpiece for "FF7" fans. It can be said that "Reunion" provides an almost perfect version for old players who want to replay "Crisis Core". For new players starting from "FF7 Remake" and wanting to know more about the story, now is the best time to experience it.
Crisis Core Final Fantasy 7 Reunion is one hell of a remaster. It's so effective at masking the age of the game and refreshing the visuals that at times it's hard not to be in awe. You don't have to wait any longer to check out this PSP classic - Reunion is the best possible way to experience Zack's adventures.
Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII Reunion is one of Square Enix’s better remaster offerings and is generally a pleasure to play. The responsiveness and tight controls, along with the new quality-of-life additions, make combat a thrill to take part in. The visuals breathe extra life into an already interesting world, and I never got sick of watching the redone summon attacks. The story of Zack, while tragic, is still filled with moments of some brevity and intrigue, thanks in new small part to Zack simply being a wonderful character. My gripes aside, I am thrilled that whole new generations of players can once again enjoy this prequel and see Zack’s story again after such a long time. Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII Reunion is a must-play for anyone that loves Final Fantasy VII.
Those who were less impressed with the original game are unlikely to have their minds changed by the update, especially as the console experience makes the awkward pacing even more of a problem. But for its intended obvious, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion is the perfect game to tide them over until Final Fantasy VII Rebirth next year.
The one of the best remasters. Graphics and controllers was updated. OST is good but isn't on Square level. The storyline is good too, but some characters and things is over expendable. In short, is a good game for FFVII fans.
Coming from a person who did not play the original game, this game is at the high end of the OK spectrum. it is good but nothing special. it is way inferior to FFVII remake. I don't see why Zack is a beloved character as he is way to corny. the game is too easy even on higher difficulties. actually, the difficulties of the missions from 9 stars and above only comes from the fact that the enemy will often one-shot you with a death spell or attack. you can trivialize all fights once you acquire Jump or High Jump Materia. the story was a bit rushed as I could not engage emotionally with any character. the trophies challenges are so lame and boring.
I don't understand how this game can have such high rating. It's by far one of the worst FF games I've played.
1. The gameplay is extremely dated. Unless you played the original and want to play this for nostalgia, stay away.
2. The missions is a joke. Most bland and repetitive thing I've seen in a game.
3. The writing is laughably bad.
4. Story is mainly a back-story of Zack, Angeal and Genesis and is mostly forgetable. It would be more suited for a DLC than an entire game.
5. The game can easily be completed in 10 hours making it basically the shortest FF game out there.
This game is definitely not worth $60. If you played the original you might find some nostalgia here, but otherwise do yourself a favour and spend your money on something else.
