On the and I would like to write about Final Fantasy VII – one of the best games I played in my quite long life (I’m 25 yo). That’s why I want to wrote today about most perfect game in history of gaming (in my opinion). It’s all began when 11 years ago I bought PSX and around 3-5 months later FF VII. I remember my first thoughts this game and they wasn’t warm…things like “Ohh man this game sucks..”, “why Ive bought this game?!, It’s really weird and f#@^ ing boring!!”. Back then my brother was angry and he almost yell at me. I was disappointed and frustrated but, I started to play, hoping this game isn’t crap. After few hours I was totally sucked up by this game. Wonderful. Awesome. Fantastic. Brilliant. Story, characters and magnificent amount of pure charisma, this game is really like punch in face from Evan Holyfeld.

I don’t want to talk about storyline, I just want to share with you my very warm feelings after these years. What is quite funny I’m really moved when I hear this…remember this one?

Music is really fantastic and was composed by Nobuo Uematsu, creator of soundtracks for FF VII, VIII, IX, X, XI. He is probably one of the most famous and respected composers, related to video games. Probably half of my love to Final Fantasy is connected to this great music.

Well that’s it. My post was long, because I know much about this game and maybe I will add something in the future, so stay focused ;-)
