Title: Final Fantasy VII Fighting Game
Post by: naji on 2005-07-14 16:14:54: I remember, when I went to the arcade around 6 years ago, there was a fighting game with FF7 characters, such as Cloud with his sword on his back, and Tifa, and I think other FF7 characters. I didn't have a chance to play it though because we were going when I saw it. My question is, has anyone ever heard of this game, or played it, if so what is the game called?

Post by: naji on 2005-07-14 16:28:09: Yep, that's the one, Ehrgeiz, thanks a lot Alhexx :) I saw screenshots of them in google images and it looks exactly how I remembered it to be ;)

I just found out there's a playstation version as well, is it any good to be worth buying?

It only came out on the PS1 afaik.

When I played the demo, it all felt VERY clunky... Like tekken1, but slower.

BTW, ther WAS an arcade version, BUT it was WITHOUT the ff7 characters. I heard it sucked =P

But to be honest, its main selling point WAS the use of FFVII Characters.

Im guessing it phailed pretty badly?

Post by: Topher on 2005-07-15 13:36:25: I'm pretty sure the arcade version did have (at least) some of the FF7 characters... I remember playing it in the arcade a few years ago -- in 2001, I think.

Post by: chocomog on 2005-07-17 04:56:49: i saw it (the ARC version) in the local Gameworks 6 months back or so, i was suprised as hell. i didn't get a chance to play it, but i think the demo had cloud in it.

i also rented it 3 or 4 years ago.

as a fighting game, it was very average, and the graphics were pretty poor even for that time. there was an rpg mode, but it wasn't very good either. the only redeeming factor was the FF7 characters.

Don't resurrect old topics. When people stop posting in a topic, it's usually a sign that everything of value has been said. Thus, if nobody's posted in a topic for more than a week or two, consider it dead and don't post in it (unless you have an important follow-up or question exactly on-topic, and the topic is still recent). If you post just a comment on something somebody said ... chances are no-one will care because it's been a while since everything was posted.

Post by: djzerious on 2005-09-29 18:44:05: I actually kinda liked the game. Although, I don't remember Tifa or Vincent being in it.. I definately remember Cloud, Zack, and Seph.

Post by: twitch on 2005-10-20 06:01:10: I played the playstation version. I mainly bought it coz i saw the screenshot of cloud vs sephy... The game really wasn't a good fighting game in terms of combo and individual fighting style. Heck, every damn fighter moves almost the same. The mini games are a disaster, very short and repetitive. The graphics are horrible (even for the old ps days). Also, personally; I hated the start screen because there was a japanese-trying-to-sound-american taunt of "EHRGEIZ!!!" . Come to think about it, there was really bad taunts throughout the game. Hehehe...

Post by: hay on 2005-10-20 10:51:48: I've got this game long ago and it was quite fun to play even if this was reeeaaaally weak game ;] I kinda liked it.

Post by: twitch on 2005-10-20 19:53:30: Yeah, I agree with you Hay. Doesn't matter if the game sucked- as long as it has FF7 characters in it. This was what influenced me to buy games like Chocobo Dungeon and Racing.

Post by: machaorules on 2005-10-21 03:14:52: lol sounds like the only good thing about this is the ff characters
Title: Final Fantasy VII Fighting Game
Post by: hay on 2005-10-21 10:29:24: hell yeah, that's ultimate truth :D
Other characters wasn't bad but still I played much often ff7 chars. It's fun to play as cloud or sephy, run, jump, kick ass, take out sword and then make some crazy moves ;]
Too bad I wasn't able to perform Omnislash :(
