Time to make you twitchy with joy

May 16, 2005 - Although Square wasn't ready to show any gameplay footage of their eagerly-anticipated PSP game, Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII, they did give us a hint of what to expect as part of its E3 conference on Monday morning. The game belongs to what Square Enix is referring to as The Compilation of Final Fantasy VII. This includes Before Crisis Final Fantasy VII for mobile, Final Fantasy VII Advent Children for DVD and Final Fantasy VII Dirge of Cerberus for PS2. With what looked to be the same animation style used in the Before Crisis Final Fantasy VII promotions, the guest of Square's E3 2005 press conference were give a rough idea of what approach is being taken to this PSP adventure.

Judging by shear screen time, the key character for Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII seems to be Zack, Cloud's buddy from his days with SOLDIER. In fact, the story seems to take place during that particular time period, pitting both Cloud and Zack against fledgling evil maniac Sephiroth. Tons of sword fighting ensues of course, with Cloud getting smacked around a bit by his old superior. But Zack is no slouch, and he takes on hordes of baddies despite overwhelming odds.

The animation style used in the trailer was the stark animated style used in the Before Crisis trailers. It is unknown how much the final PSP game would be influenced by this stylistic concept -- Before Crisis used a lot of cartoon visuals in its promotions, but the actual game graphics were semi-realistic like other FF titles.
