Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus
Platform: PlayStation 2
Publisher: Square Enix
Review Type: Touchy
Version: E3 Demo
It's kinda cruel the way Square-Enix prick teases their fans. All they really want is a straight up sequel to their favorite game. They want Final Fantasy VII-2. But Square-Enix isn't giving up the goods.
Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus is a clunky third person shooter. It's a slower, uglier Gungrave. And it stars a side character that was only playable in the original game by undertaking a huge side quest. The game, like most Final Fantasy spin-off games, was panned in Japan. Word has it that the game has been re-tooled for American audiences, who are more familiar with trigger-happy action. I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the concept that there's a version of Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus that feels more sluggish and joyless than the demo I played at E3.
Here's hoping there isn't much game to get in the way of the awesome cut scenes.
