Planning to buy this game.

But before buying it, I'm wondering, is it really worth it to buy and play the game? Is there anything in the game that could explain more information about the aspects of FF7? Like how stuff in the old days happened, where and why, etc.

Is the game really fun? Is this game more of a playable game with less talking, information and flashblacks, etc?

Oh and no spoilers please

The game isn't bad. It does have good cut scenes, and the in-game cuts are meh. The game play is basic, so don't expect anything really action terrific from a mostly RPG based developer. Plus with limited motion, melee is always a set combo, and 3 different types of gun play, it's not over the edge. It was an ok game. And there are a lot of movie parts. Flashbacks, current events, ect.

No. Treat the game as if it were a giant pile of burning hot coal, or Final Fantasy X-2, and keep your hands off it. If you're worried about missing out on story, it doesn't even really tie into any events in Seven to begin with. It centers on a totally original, and not all that interesting, story about Vincent. If anything it'll tie into a future installment of their milking compilation, along with Crisis Core.

It does have CG Irish Dancing girls during it's intro though, and that's about all I'll give the piece of turd credit for.

having finished the game i would say stay away if you like FF games but if your into Medal of honor n stuff like that play it.It doent really conect up to VII that much so if your after a follow up you wont get one.

I bought it and I've finished it just the one time. I'd probably give it a 6.5 out of 10.

As the FFVII and AC sequel, it doesn't do very much to join the dots. It seems a lot more like a spin-off game than anything else with all the new locations and characters. It's a decent enough play, but don't expect any big FFVII story-revelations. Except for the pronunciation of "Lucrecia".

As a action-shooter, it's not very well designed either. 3 guns? Not very groundbreaking stuff. Compare it to Devil May Cry and the only thing you've got going for DoC is that it IS a lot easier. xD

Actually, if you're into any decently designed shooter/action game, you're more likely to hate this than like it. The gameplay is pathetic compared to a lot of what's out there in the genre.
