PSP Reboot #3: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII

Contrary to a lot of reboots on the PSP, this game was really good.  Crisis Core:  Final Fantasy VII is a prequel to the original classic's story and does it very well.  The story is centered around Zack, a SOLDIER operative and entails all of the events leading up to the very beginning of where Final Fantasy VII starts.  For hardcore fans of Final Fantasy VII, this is a must-play.  The characters are enjoyable and it reciprocates all of the emotion that other Final Fantasies deliver.

The gameplay is similar to the battle system in Kingdom Hearts, another Square Enix game.  The battles are realtime and require artful dodging and well-timed attacks for success.  It does this while preserving most of the leveling and materia systems of the original.  Also, unlike other PSP reboots, the controls are very easy to use in this game.

Though I don't think this game is as good as Valkyria Chronicles II, this game is still an amazing game.  This game is definitely the best of any of the Compilation Final Fantasy VII games (minus the original of course).
