This is an excellent game to play alone or with friends. I'd highly recommend this Guitar Hero version, especially if you are a fan of the previous releases. The gameplay is more challenging, and the battle mode is a fun feature.
What's great about it: Good Songs, Good Gameplay, Challenging

Scrapped Princess is a well developed story about a young girl who is born with a sad fate. For Pacifica, the Scrapped Princess, is doomed to be the "poison that will destroy the world." Cast off as an infant, Pacifica is raised by her foster family, the Casulls. After the death of her parents, Pacifica, and her foster brother and sister, Shannon and Raquel, set off on a journey for both the safety of Pacifica as well as to find out the truth behind the prophecy that surrounds her. This is an excellent anime, which is an entertaining watch that is well worth the hours of investment. There are aspects of drama, action, romance, and humor throughout the anime. Scrapped Princess is a good addition for the anime fan's collection.
What's great about it: Good Character Development, In-depth Story, and Humor

Whether you are a Final Fantasy VII fan or not, Advent Children will certainly not dissapoint. Between the fluid animation, the excellent imagination of Nojima and Nomura, and the musical genius of Uematsu, this is one movie for anyone's collection. Taking place after the events of the 1990's story of Final Fantasy VII, the orginal characters find themselves facing a new menace; 3 Sephiroth clones in search of their "mother", the calamity of the sky, Jenova. The hero, Cloud Strife, must face his toughest opponent, his regret and fears, as he continues the struggle to save those dear to him and prevent chaos from threatening the planet again. Although rather short to cram in so much story, the movie still manages to captivate its audience, and leaves the viewer wanting more. This movie is recommended for teens and adults, as it contains some themes not easily understood by children. Definitely recommended for the Final Fantasy Fan. This movie deserves 5 stars.
What's great about it: Great Animation, Excellent Story, Great Soundtrack
What's not so great: Exceptionally Short, Rushed Story

The final fantasy series has been a fun and adventurous RPG since the 80's. Today, developers at Square Enix should give themselves a pat on the back for one of the best (if not the best) RPGs to ever grace a portable game system. For those who have followed the original FFVII (Square's best known masterpiece) the story of crisis core (for the PSP) takes the gamer through the series of events that lead to the original. The player assumes the role of Zack, a young, enthusiastic member of Soldier (Shinra's elite military force). In battle, Zack is a one man team, which the player must strategically fight in real time, taking advantage of Square's improved combat system. With its hours of gameplay, beautiful cutscenes (especially for a portable!), excellent soundtrack, and well defined characters, the player will find themselves immersed in the final fantasy world that gamers all over have enjoyed since the mid-90's (when FFVII first came to the US). The only painful drawback to this game was the lack of camera control, which had the potential to pose difficulty when attempting to reduce encounters or finding specific items or chests. However, gamers can get past this rather quickly, as the game has many positive things to offer. If you are a fan of the series, or RPGs in general, I highly recommend adding this game to your collection.
What's great about it: Amazing Gameplay, Excellent Graphics, Powerful Story, Excellent Music
