I'm up for a game to play, a shooter even. First though, I want to know if it's any good from those who've played it. Oh and any post that has "becuz its got vincent in it" will be ignored, shot and fed to a pack of wild dogs.

i have the game and have been through it all. It is alot of fun. As a matter of fact on the vincent part, it was better to have vincent as the main anyway. he looks cooler and uses guns, my fav weapon. Worth playing! Rating 10 of 10!

I would tell you to get it, but it is nowhere near a 10/10. It is more like a seven or eight. The gameplay brings it down but the story and FMV bring it up. It is also a challenge in extra-hard and the extra levels are intering. I've played it and find it agreeable if you're looking for a fun game then you will probably like it. Is it worth the fifty bucks? That can be debated, but is still a great game. If you are unsure then rent it and see if you like it then buy it, or just buy it.

Thanks, a good opinion is all that I ever hoped for. Oh and it's £40 here, me'thinks.

When I 1st put it on I knew it was gonna be good. I like how Vincent is the main character and the storyline is very interesting. I also like the battle system, cuz it's something different from the normal Final Fantasy battle system.

After I started playing Dirge Of Cerberus for a few minutes, it reminded me a lot of a combination of Devil May Cry and 007: Nightfire.

I REALLY like it!!! You should TOTALLY get it!!!

But other than that, the gameplay is solid (improved from the JP version of course), and a wild backstory with everyone's favorite mystery man. Sure, it isn't perfect, but it isn't horrible. (Not every game is perfect, after all.)

It's very fun, IMO, but what it lacks is length. The game is a little too short. You can beat it in 3-4 days; less if you play a lot.

You can go back and play in Hard and Extra Hard mode though, which would make the game last more.

I paid 40USD for it(not sure how, I think the clerk messed up) and I feel like it was well worth it. It's no 10/10 because it does have some obvious flaws, but it's entertaining enough, and the story relates well to events from the original FF7.

I still wish they'd done a 'Stealth shooter' or an action RPG with mild shooter aspects, but SE put a legitimate effort into this and came out with a decent product. If I had to rate it, I'd say it's somewhere between a 7 or 8 out of 10.

You might be able to get away with a rental just to get the main story arc, however I'm personally glad that I bought it, and would recommend it to you if you appreciate FF7.
