Square Enix did a awesome job creating Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus. I hope Square Enix creates another shooting game in the future. from Amazon.com Dirge of Cerberus is by far the most disappointing story in the Final Fantasy VII franchise, but it is by no means a horrible game. Storyline is weak and full of plot holes, making it weak compared to the rest of the franchise, but as an FPS Dirge was an enjoyable game that I recommend to fans of the genre and Hardcore fans of the franchise who happen to like Vincent Valentine. from Walmart.com Dirge of Cerberus is by far the most disappointing story in the Final Fantasy VII franchise, but it is by no means a horrible game. Storyline is weak and full of plot holes, making it weak compared to the rest of the franchise, but as an FPS Dirge was an enjoyable game that I recommend to fans of the genre and Hardcore fans of the franchise who happen to like Vincent Valentine. from Walmart.com As was said in a earlier review the creators of final fantasy are giving us everything but what we actually asked for. They gave us Advent Children, cell phone games, and finally Dirge of Cerberus. from Amazon.com The Dirge of Cerberus looked promising from afar, seeing as to how it's predecessors Final Fantasy VII (VG)and Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (Film) were both hailed with great reviews and sky rocketing sales (and constant fan bases being created all around the globe). Many Final Fantasy Players would have expected the fighting style of 'Dirge of Cerberus' to be similar to the other Final Fantasy Games (seeing as to how 'Dirge' totes the Final Fantasy title) but it is a pleasant surprise to see that the meelee type attacks and freestyle type battles can be a nice difference from the usual (seeing as to how 'Dirge of Cerberus' does not necessarily boast itself as a Final Fantasy game). from Amazon.com Strengths: Fancy graphics and cut scenes Weaknesses: Gameplay Summary: Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus can be a letdown if you have a high expectation as you would from the Final Fantasy universe. Yes, it has great graphics and photo realistic cut scenes but what it lacks is the game play. from Pricegrabber.com Okay, at first even I was skeptical that Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus, was going to be an even "decent" game, at best. I was one of the typical fanboys that thought "Oh no! from Amazon.com The mysterious Vincent Valentine was one of the most interesting and memorable characters from the classic Final Fantasy VII, which is one reason why this spin-off looked so promising. Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus is less RPG and more action/shooter, taking place after the events of Final Fantasy VII. from Amazon.com It is good to see SquareEnix bring back the FF7 franchise. The graphics for 'Dirge of Cerberus' are fantastic, the story is really good, but the gameplay was not very satisfying. Instead of this title being an RPG game, it is more like an action shootertitle. from Circuitcity.com The Value of the Final Fantasy License Strengths: +graphics, +some interesting weapon upgrades, +the auto aiming Weaknesses: -levels are linear, -generic bad guys, -camera is horrible. Summary: The Final Fantasy license and Square Enix's attention to the graphics and design really saves Dirge of Cerberus from being a mediocre game. from Pricegrabber.com
