Okay, so I was cruising through the PlayStation Store — like I usually do when I want to burn time (who doesn’t, right?) — and guess what? Yep, another sale. It’s like the sun rising in the east, perpetual and comforting. Honestly, when isn’t there a sale? Not complaining, though. They’ve got these killer discounts on PS4 and PS5 games, stuff you’d actually want to play. Like that old favorite, the action RPG that wandered over from the PSP days.
Wait, where was I? Oh, right…
Crisis Core – Final Fantasy VII – Reunion Hits You with 60% Off on PS Store
So, Crisis Core – Final Fantasy VII – Reunion’s going for a crazy 60% off. Yeah, you read that right. That’s $19.99 instead of $49.99. I mean, if you’ve ever wanted to dive into the whole prequel vibe of that classic PS1 saga, this is the moment. But don’t dilly-dally — the deal’s wrapping up on August 14, 2:59 a.m. ET sharp. I almost missed it ’cause I was too busy binge-watching random documentaries… no idea why those are addictive.
About the story — and I seriously hope I’m not the only one who got feels here — it digs into Zack Fair’s life. Picture this: a young warrior, with big dreams, gets intertwined with legendary heroes and a girl holding the planet’s fate. Kinda epic if you ask me. You see Zack’s journey, his dreams, his honor, and how he connects to Cloud. Wow, that’s a saga, right?
This remaster isn’t just a quick touch-up. Nope. They’ve revamped the visuals into HD splendor with shiny new 3D models. Plus, they tweaked the battle system—no clue how they did it, but apparently, it’s smooth. Oh, and did I mention the soundtrack? Takeharu Ishimoto got behind it with new arrangements. Just picture hearing those tunes echo through your gaming setup.
Rewind to 2022 when this thing dropped, critics really liked it. I mean, over at Metacritic (if stars are your thing), it snagged a solid 78 average out of 81 reviews. We threw a 9 out of 10 at it, which isn’t something I do lightly, trust me. Square Enix has had some hits and misses, but this one hit the mark. Crossed fingers for more care-driven titles like this from them in the future. Or maybe that’s just wishful thinking. Anyway, time to log back into the game… or maybe I’ll just wander through the store some more. Decisions, decisions…
