    • The graphics aren't that bad, the storyline is great, the gameplay is great, and it offers hours of fun
    • With these said, it's a good game, with good storyline and fairly good graphics and gameplay, and I would recommend this game to any RPG or FF fan, even though to master takes a bit of practice
    • Very advanced and keeps true to the FF Series with a great genuine storyline and gameplay.
    • Final Fantasy VII has the absolute BEST storyline in an RPG.

    • The storyline is very creative and it holds your attention for the whole game
    • THe materia system is great, and the storyline is just awesome
    • This is a really fun game, with a great storyline, and a great music soundtrack, with stunning CGI cutscenes.
    • All we ever here from those that 'hate' the game is, "bad graphics, bad storyline, bad gameplay".
    • The storyline is awesome, graphics were amazing for its time, and there's much to do aside from the main storyline
    • the BEST game ( I've played a LOAD of games so competition for my favorites can be fierce ) but nonetheless is very good after all how can you not love the characters even if the graphics aren't amazing anymore plus nice storyline I wouldn't recommend giving it to
    • Personally I play rpgs for the virtual soap opera experience, and I think FFVII offers the best storyline and characters
    • Final Fantasy VII has a brilliant storyline and awesome graphics to match
    • The intricate storyline begins around Cloud Strife a mercenary who was formerly in the SHINRA army called SOLDIER
    • The graphics aren't great, but you should mostly enjoy the storyline, not how it looks.
    • The story of the game is the best storyline I have ever experienced; in a game, book, movie, etc.
    • It has an intricate storyline, believable characters, a challenging battle system, and plenty of mini-games to keep you from becoming bored
    • The excellent storyline, huge world, hard bosses (yet beatable), are a few of the things that the developers did so perfectly
    • The storyline is just incredible and so deep it can touch the hearts of true RPG fans.
    • Gone were the traditional top-down viewpoints, the 1-dimensional characters, and the boring spell effects, and we watched in amazement at hitherto-unparalleled graphics and a completely revolutionary storyline showed us exactly how good a RPG could be
    • FFVII has probably the greatest storyline ever put into written words
    • The storyline completely blew me away, so complex and filled with real emotion that i sometimes forgot i was sitting at home in a room playing a game
    • The combination of adult themes, superb deep characters, a riveting storyline, and <at that time> simply unparalleled graphics made it the highest grossing RPG for the 1990s
    • The storyline is immense, the characters are varied, there is a piloe, a dog type lion beast, a cat on a mog and an Ancient, unlike the sequel where everyone is a human
    • With impressive graphics, unforgettable characters, and a simply amazing storyline, Final Fantasy VII is definately a game that shouldn't be underestimated
    • But it really has a wonderful storyline and I fell in love with the characters right away
    • The storyline is wonderful and the backgrounds are amazing.
    • , it's just that the storyline was bad and predictible.
    • If you are looking for a game to invest 60+ hours into, with a great storyline and excellent gameplay, this is the game for you
    • A twisted, multi-layered storyline unfolds as you chase down and try to kill the manical Sephiroth
    • With the best storyline, graphics, gameplay, ect
    • It's 3D graphics, badass music, and intense, deep storyline, make it a classic to all FF fans out there
    • classic storyline, good music, sweet battle system.
    • This game has it all: the best combat system ever conceived by mortal (or immortal :p) minds, an intricate and interesting storyline, and characters that make other games seem shallow
    • But it really has a wonderful storyline and I fell in love with the characters right away
    • oh it must have a rubbish storyline" or a boring game with puzzles impossible to solve, but this is far from the truth, Square is known for their enthralling plots, and has made one of the most shockingly emotional plots, with you trying to find the truth about of the past and who the real enemy is, while the player is presented with several minigames to keep you hooked, you can head to the Gold Saucer and play on the arcade or go on a rollercoaster ride, snowboard or even breed chocobos
    • Just as all its predceeding installments, Final Fantasy VII delivers a simply amazing storyline, making the game worthy enough to play several times over.
    • This game is a three disc rpg turn based game with the best storyline of it's time
    • Yes, PS2 and XBox might have better graphics, but on the whole, the storyline, the weapons you can get, and the cinematic sequences, make this just too good to miss
    • its a challenge, has a great storyline, awesome characters(especially Sephiroth), and is a great experience
    • It combines an excellent storyline, a superb soundtrack that you will most likely remember for ages, fun game play, excellent graphics (granted, it was the first PSOne FF game and PSOne graphics back in the day ruled!), and much more!
    • Plus, the storyline isn terrific
    • A more mature storyline
    • I found the storyline a little difficult to follow at times, but simply because there were several story lines going on at once that don't connect up until later
    • Its got a great storyline full of twists and turns
    • The storyline is deep and memorable too, which is DEFINITELY a plus!
    • First off, I like the comment on the amazing storyline in this.
    • yes, this game is omg old, now with this price it "god"it has strong storyline, great effects and deep meanuing in the story.it is square's best work in FF series
    • The intricate storyline begins around Cloud Strife a mercenary who was formerly in the SHINRA army called SOLDIER
    • Gameplay-This definetly deserves 5 stars because of its great storyline which makes you feel like part of the action.....
    • SUCH AN AMAZING GAME, GREAT STORYLINE AND SO MANY SIDE AREAS YOU'LL
    • the storyline was like no other, even waaay better than ff8 or 10.i definetly recommend if you like rpgs, you should buy this game
    • The storyline was dumb and uninspired, the characters were laughable (and not in a good way), and the main boss could be killed with one hit.
    • , I have never cared so much about the characters, I have never loved a storyline so much, as I do for Final Fantasy VII
    • An immensely complex but not at all complicated storyline reveals itself over the course of 3 discs, with villains, friends, sidekicks and lovers.
    • But what stands out most to me, is the captivating storyline
    • I am a veteran of the Final Fantasy series beating every single game ever made, yet the shock at which I first observed Final Fantasy 7's immense wondrous storyline is yet to be repeated in any other game.
    • If youre anything like me, when youre not playing this game you'll be THINKING of it all day mostly due to the incredibly awesome storyline
    • the storyline is incredible(much better than ff8's, which i think is the worst ff)you will find yourself connected
    • It features an excellent storyline, an excellent battle system, AWESOME MUSIC (people by the soundtrack
    • I can agree that this is indeed a superb game with a great storyline, it's just that some things in the game drag it down, which is why i gave it four stars
    • any way, now to the big cheese.as far as gameplay goes, this game gets the gold medal for numerous reasons: 1.its storyline engulfs you into a world so intrigueing that you almost lose contact with the real world
    • best characters and storyline iv ever played
    • please this beats all the other ff series which had extreme bad storyline and gameplay
    • The storyline is better than any movie, book, or game ever created
    • It has challenge, depth, and the best storyline
    • the graphics are cool and it has an understandable storyline.
    • it's complex storyline which decreases the great fun you can get out of FF7
    • Final Fantasy games alone have a reputation of having an excellent storyline, game play, high replay, and excellent graphics (despite the first FF games).
    • The storyline rivals that of Albert Odyssey, which I regarded as being the greatest RPG before I played this.
    • The WEAPONS are grueling and the storyline is amazing
    • There's been a lot of talk about how terrible the storyline is
    • The storyline is brilliant
    • This game has a really great storyline, and when it ended
    • The storyline was great, little bit cliche, but great
    • This game has an awesome storyline and keeps you wanting more
    • The storyline is fantastic, the character development is wonderful, and the gameplay itself is really good
    • With lame movie graphics, lamer gameplay and a super lame storyline all about one little porcupine, this game is should be free .
    • The storyline is fresh and the music is just amazing
    • To begin with it has the best storyline
    • The storyline is epic and archetypal but not cliched, the combat is fast paced and engaging, the music is beautiful and the characters are quirky, complex and lovable in a way that you so rarely find in today's games
    • It features over 60 hours of gameplay, with an amazing storyline
    • Even though 8 and 9 were a good follow up to 7, they didn't quite have the fast paced intense storyline that 7 had
    • THE STORYLINE IS BEAUTIFUL, and even though ive played it over 10 times, i never get tired of it
    • Dark, disloyal and murky,the storyline of FFVII never fails to amaze
    • The graphics were beautiful when this game came out, the storyline is immense (although this is true of every FF past the fifth), and there are enough sidequests, minigames to satisfy even a picky gamer
    • It is a great game and a great storyline for rpg lovers
    • The storyline is quite captivating with themes of love, friendship, comedy, betrayal, and of course ACTION
    • The storyline was absolutely excellent
    • this DEFINATELY does not match up with final fantasy VI, it rivals with the second best RPG ever made: Final Fantasy II. considering that FFII had more challenge to it, but FFVII had a much better story, they both beat each other up pretty badly.all in all, i would shell out 15 dollars just to watch someone play it, the storyline is so good
    • X has the graphics,but Final Fantasy VII has a great storyline,good minigames,loads of secrets,huge bosses,and the best music ever.although,sadly,no,you can't revive Aeris,...
    • Some say the storyline is boring, but that is a matter of preference and opinion
    • FF7 defined what an RPG should be, with an intricate storyline, characters with attitude, an addictive battle system, and everything else that makes an RPG worth playing
    • It has a decent storyline with good characters but it is absolutely terrible compared to the mighty FINAL FANTASY 8
    • The storyline is just incredible, dramatic, and full of twists and turns but the game somehow manages to keep away from being too serious all the time
    • Pros: An excellent storyline (one that's far easier to understand than FF VIII) that truly brings out the characters and their moving development
    • Dark, disloyal and murky,the storyline of FFVII never fails to amaze
    • This has my favorite storyline of all the Final Fantasy games.
    • It is one a great game, its storyline is incredible, The open-ended feature is what I look for in any RPG, and it was one of Final Fantasy's great downfalls when it stopped using that feature in FFX on
    • lets see now... this is an Immersive with a good and compelling storyline and great Characters
    • The storyline then gets even more exciting as other problems arise, but you'll have to play to figure it out
    • The crisp graphics (they're especially good considering that it came out in 1997), breathtaking soundtrack, brilliant gameplay, epic storyline, and replay value make this game well worth the cash
    • The storyline was great, little bit cliche, but great
    • Every RPG has to have a good storyline, and this one doesn't disappoint.
    • Compared to the graphics of nowadays they're not so good, but its outdated graphics are no reason to be deterred from buying a game with a very deep, complex storyline; and a very detailed style of gameplay
    • It is one of my favorite RPG`s of all time
    • I don't particularly care--he was supposed to be Mr. T, and he turned out well in that regard, but if you intend to read some kind of general statement on the merit of people of a particular shade, you may as well just let this one pass by
    • And the songs J-E-N-O-V-A and One Winged Angel at the end of the game
    • You are in control of a lame-o named Cloud, an ex member of the famed Soldier
