Summary

The Interactive movie no one understands

The Good

This game had a epic long story that featured film-like CGI scenes with vibrant color and realism. This game/movie would have made the Final Fantasy Movie #1 in the box office, if they would have used the story (taking out all of the game-like resemblances such as battles and the long waits when you travel to other places) In place with some plot twist and some cuts, this movie would dominate the box office, except it lies besides Final Fantasy VII in the video game world.

The Bad

The game has a long drawn out plot that didn't suit a video game. Sometimes after defeating it once, it will begin to collect dust. Boredom will overwhelm you. As always it will leave a mark in the beginning for better games to come.

The Bottom Line

If you are a Hardcore Final Fantasy fan or love a good romantic story this is a game for you. Forget going to the movies looking for a better love/ action story. this is the one you'd want.
