Product Description
Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus traces the story of the mysterious Vincent Valentine, a popular character in the classic Final Fantasy VII. Three years have passed since the events of the hit game. Buried alive following Meteorfall, a mysterious group known as "Deepground" emerges and begins raiding the city of Midgar, ultimately threatening the world. The enigmatic Vincent Valentine is somehow connected to these attacks, and he may be the only one who can save this shattered society. When the world becomes shrouded in darkness, his gun will toll a dreadful dirge.

 I happened to like it... June 24, 2008

I can't forget how excited I was to learn more about the dark, broody character of the Final Fantasy series. Vincent Valentine has always been my favorite, and getting the chance to actually play his side of the story was a real treat. The gameplay itself was incredibly different this time. You're actually required to run around a aim during battles, something that I, for one, found a nice change of pace. The overall graphics were on par with anything else by Square Enix, and the cutscenes were just as good as the Advent Children movie. The game was fairly short, and I didn't find it very difficult- not counting the secret targets to unlock the bonus missions. Some people might consider this not worth buying when you can rent the game and be done in less than a week. As a true Final Fantasy fan, however, I can't imagine not seeing it on my shelf beside the rest of the series.
 It's a very well-presented chunk of the FFVII "experience" June 17, 2008
It's a very well-presented chunk of the FFVII "experience", an engaging piece of storytelling for existing fans. For anyone who isn't desperately in love with FFVII it's impossible to recommend Dirge of Cerberus as anything other than a curiosity. Jody Bissoon
Not as bad as people say May 24, 2008

They're right. This is not the best game in the world, but people complain to much. Just because its name has final fantasy on it, they expect amazing things.
This is a good game, it's entertaining and has an amazing graphics and story.
Gameplay is a little off but its not that bad.
If you love vincent and final fantasy vii story, you should buy it
so this is it.. April 22, 2008

I love Vincent ever since playing FFVII.So of course I was determined to buy this game.I read a lot of reviews on amazon so I was aware of what Im buying.And still...
The game is nothing but a monotonus action.Basically its something like finishing a level, only to see a nicely made video after it.This is what kept me going.I wanted to see Vincent in good graphics and to learn more about his story. Without this, the whole game isnt even worth playing.Shooter action? There are much more better games of this genre out there.
I also found the plot to be quite ridiculous.The only things which made sense were about Vincents past (such as moments from the original FFVII shown in new graphics).
Usually, I like to collect games, even if I dont play them often, I still keep them for my nice gaming collection.But Dirge of cerberus.I sold it on ebay after finishing 1 time, I knew I never gonna touch this game anymore.
Videos? download them or watch on youtube, the game isnt worth buying because of them.
Rent this game, and see what is it for you.
Story much better than Gameplay April 21, 2008
The gameplay is average at best. IT is a fairly simple game to beat, with predictable levels. The story of the game is what makes it worth buying. Fans of Final Fantasy will enjoy for this alone. A must for Final Fantasy fans, for others....not so much.
