It was 1998, I was a sophomore in high school, and I was enjoying the hell out of my PSOne. One day, some kid on the back of the school bus sold me a game that I'll never forget, and arguably one of the best games of all time. It was Final Fantasy VII. Now, at this point, I was relatively new to RPG's. I'd played around with Zelda, some of the early Final Fantasy games, and a few of the no name titles...but man something about this one got me hooked. For its time, the graphics were amazing, the gameplay could either be super easy, or you could break down and analyze every detail in order to maximize your experience. And the story? One of the best. Hands down. I recently re-purchased this game on the PSN for my PSPGo, and you know what? They sure don’t make em' like this anymore. I mean, to beat it and do I'd guess, I dunno half of the stuff in it, it'd take about 60 hours. IF you are bored, want to give an old school RPG game a try, or wanna see what all the hype is about, give it a shot. It's a breath of fresh air in this market that is clogged with cookie cutter FPS's and Music Hero Guitar Overlord 3000's You'll thank me later. (Disclousure: I had to repeat my Junior year of high school because of this game. I'd beat it quickly the first time through, and wanted to go for a perfect game...still haven't done it lol) Below is video showing some of the battle summons...and how Square Enix pushed the PS ones graphics to it's limits.
