An epic low-fantasy RPG developed and published by Square (now
Square Enix), and released for the Sony PlayStation console in 1997.
Frequently cited as one of the best video games of all time,
FF7 was lauded for its massive size, depth of story, stunning visuals and unforgettable score, and is widely credited with popularising role playing games in the western world.
The game has since spawned numerous inferior sequels,
prequels, remakes and spin-offs, none of which appear to have lessened its god-like reputation amongst enthusiasts.
