This is probably the best RPG that ever has and ever will be released. I've had it since it's release in 1997 and beat it several times and I plan to again. It just doesn't get old. The graphics are still great, but a little outdated of course because technology is getting better. But it still looks pretty. The battle system is the best of any of the Final Fantasy games, even the newer ones. In fact, I think that the battle system of FF7 is the best of any RPG. The music composition is great as well, even if it is just one guy on a synthesizer. It's great. Let's see; the gameplay is perfect, the music is perfect, the battle system is perfect, the character's are loveable, and the best part is...the story. This game is truly a classic and I recommend it to collectors and gamers alike.
