oh snap its KATE
I'm going to be a pain and talk about Crisis Core (right after it stopped). I really want to play it, but that's the only game on the PSP that I want to play... So buying a PSP for that one game would be pointless. It'd be nice if it ever came out on PS2 though...
Oh and how is the game centered around Vincent (I forgot the name of it)? I was thinking about buying it if it was any good... Are the battles and game play like the previous game or is it completely different?
Crisis Core would fail horribly if it was out on the PS2, its far too short and you don't learn anything new.
Okay, sure its nice to see Zack and his story, how Aeris and him met, etc. etc, but the main thing was it was there to give Genesis a point now that he was introduced in Dirge. Nothing new is learned really and that relationship between Aeris and Zack never really grows, they hang out for a while, Zack builds her a wagon, Aeris calls him like 4 times throughout the game and he always says I'll call you back and then at the end he thinks of her as he dies. Don't get me wrong, the ending was sad as hell, cried when I first saw it, but it almost seemed forced to me that he thought of Aeris. I always imagined a deeper bond between the two and Crisis Core didn't give that to me.
As for Dirge of Cerberus, Vincent's game, in my honest opinion... its crap. Its a shooter, so you're in 3rd person almost like Devil May Cry but you can switch to first person. The controls are a little funky, and the story itself is crap. As much as Vincent is loved, the game is not worth it. Again, we learn nothing new about Lucrecia and Vincent, and a "Omg new danger!" story line is introduced. Its not really worth it, rent it or something and see how you feel but yeah... thats my opinion.
A question from me now: I've read that the compilation would be alive till like 2017, what more can they possibly do to milk the series? X_X
