I?m willing to be that most of you are pretty familiar with Final Fantasy VII at this point. Originally released on PS1 back in 1997, and going on to make what I assume is a kajillion dollars, it?s a pretty popular RPG that most us who grew up in that era have played. And I?d venture to say that most who grew up after that era have played it too, with a few different opportunities to do so across platforms like Steam, PSP, Vita, and PS3. So chances are you if you?ve ever had any interest in playing Final Fantasy VII, you?ve found a way to do so at this point.
But, I still think it?s a pretty neat thing to have available on iOS. And it?s not that we?ve never had Final Fantasy VII on a portable platform before, but being able to boot the game up while laying in bed using my iPad is just sort of neat to me. It looks pretty good, with some cleaned up character models that are still polygonal as hell, but look a bit sharper than the PS1 emulation available on Vita and PSP. The pre-rendered backgrounds don?t hold up quite as well, as you can likely imagine, coming off a bit fuzzy compared to the monsters and characters.
Movement controls fare a bit better, with the option to switch between analog and digital style controls. When moving around the world, no matter where you place your left thumb you?ll get a analog/digital control overlay that pops up, so unless you?re really exaggerated with your thumb movements, you?ll have no trouble controlling Cloud and company. There?s also a no-encounter option, which is really about the only special feature I could find, but it?s easily accessible via the same controller overlay placed at the bottom of the screen.
