If you're a fan of Final Fantasy, then this game is a no brainer. I didn't know who all of these characters were, since I got into FF with FFVII, and it made me want to find the old games on some port and play them.
I don't have to many gripes about this game...the cut scenes are a little cheezy. Just bad script. Voice acting is ok. My biggest complaint about this game are the controls. I wish I could just use my weapons when I'm attacking, not some special type of move. Every character handles different, so there are some you'll be comfortable with, and some you'll be down right frustrated with. Other than that, it's got a solid RPG element to it, with equipments, selecting from a move list, and what have you.
Good game, just a little frustrating at times.
What's great about it: Good RPG elements, Final Fantasy Characters
What's not so great: In-game controls, cut scene scripting lacking
