I was so excited when this was announced. I love everything about Final Fantasy VII, and I've never played Crisis Core. Thank you Square Enix for remaking/re-mastering this game!
No but really, what SE did with this port is really interesting. Certain parts of the game were remastered, certain parts of it were straight up remade. During some cutscenes you might be reminded that it's a PSP game, but during some gameplay segments this game looks and feels very modern and it's awesome. Apparently the voice acting was re-done as well.
I like the structure of the game and can't help but think it influenced Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Though there is an overarching story, you play as a soldier (well, member of SOLDIER) and you can deploy to various missions at your leisure. While these can be fun, they can also be repetitive, either in enemy design, environmental design or both.
The overall story is really good. I loved being back in this world with these characters, and seeing locations that we haven't yet seen in the Remake series. Bring on Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth!
