bloody awesome. I think that's the best way to describe this game

I think FFVII and FFVIII were the best games on PS1 but this is somewhere in the top 5 with others like Tekken 3 and Wipeout XL too.

Got this on PSP now. Looks fantastic even now.

The Cut scenes made it feel like a movie. Good stuff.

Best Game Ever

Best in the series and in my top 3 of all time. This game blew me mind back in the day, and it still holds up today as being one of the best games.
