you play through a story line as Zack. It is the game before the game final fantasy 7 on PS1 so you don't need to have played the original ff7 but it adds to the experience.

This game had great graphics and amazing cutscenes. Considering that they had to fit in onto a TINY 1.8gig UMD disc compared to console games which get dual layered DVD and some of them are still of a lower quality than this, i think they did a good job making it how long it is

I felt the emotion and emphasis, I'm pretty sure the same message is being displayed, its just that the Japanese probably emphasise different things in their language that in a straight word translation would seem a little wierd.

@ IAC what difficulty are you playing on?

use thunder when you are facing one opponent, otherwise wait until they all crowd around you, and use Assault Twister, if you keep using it, they are stunned after every slash for 1 second. just keep using it until they're dead. The hardest battle in that level for me is the identical Genesis clone.

EDIT
in modulating phase, don't push any buttons, that usually works

IAC, try leveling up in missions first. Or use Thunder materia from a safe distance. The machines should be weak against it.
Run around and dodge, use long distance attacks, and be ready to heal as soon as possible.
That's really all I can suggest. Hope it helps.

Main game. Just got back from Genesis' and Angeal's hometown. Went to directors office, then emergency lights and i had to go down the lift. To the entrance, where there's a heap of 2 legged machines with guns.

www.gamefaqs.com/

About halfway down chapter 4, in the walkthrough:

"- ***BATTLE: Robots and clones, oh my!***
It can be a bit tricky, but this is still an easy fight. Take out the
clones first, they are weak and they are not replaced. The two robots
are also easy on their own, but their machine gun attack has no warning and
does mild damage, so if you are careless your health will drop quite a bit.
Try and keep an eye on the one you are not attacking so you can dodge it's
shots. After killing one robot, security drones come in, but are
extremely weak and can all be killed in a few sweeping swipes if you place yourself right."

Doesn't help

IAC, I'm not sure whereabouts you're stuck. Is it the main game or a mission?

As for the Modulating Phases, there is a special kind of materia to buy that increases the chance of one person appearing on the DMW (same with summons).
To buy the materia you have to get a special item from Gongaga in the main game (if you miss it you can't get it again).
Here's a link about it:
www.gamefaqs.com/
The name of the shop is Research Dept. QMC +
For the summons though it's a different shop (Bone Village Commerce I think).

I really love the summons though. It's an actual cut scene, not normal in game graphics. Square really pushed the PSPs boundaries when they made this.

Also, is there a special way to get Modulating Phases more?

ps. I agree chez. It's totally rediculous, and the only cool part in the fighting is the cut scenes when you do a special attack, you can't even instruct him to do it!


Just keep trying and someday you will be lucky. thats my tip

I'm stuck on a level. It sucks.

One where you go down the elevator and fight all the shooting machines and Genesis clones. I hate it, 4 machines just come out and totally annihilate me! Any tips!??!?

Also, is there a special way to get Modulating Phases more?

ps. I agree chez. It's totally rediculous, and the only cool part in the fighting is the cut scenes when you do a special attack, you can't even instruct him to do it!

I just finished this today.
I kind of forgot what was going to happen until I reached Niebleheim (I think that's how it's spelt), and then I remembered.
The ending was beautifully done, and now I have the urge to start FF7 all over again.

Anyway, it annoyed me how the leveling up seemed completely random, but other than that I actually loved the game.

I got this, It's awesome.

The gameplay was a bit of a shock to me, as I expected the usual turn based Final Fantasy combat, but no, I would describe it as a tactical button masher, if such a thing can exist. One must press X to select battle movement whether it be casting offensive/defensive spells or just attacking with your sword, which is often better than magic in certain situations.
The game is immersive, as expected with the Final Fantasy franchise and the gameplay fresh and leaving you wanting more. Bosses will usually require tactics, and there are many twists in the story

All this and I've only played 8 hours of this massive RPG (I only just met Cloud, he's a rookie!)
I feel that this game is definitely the best game on PSP so far, and with the new "hard mode" there can be room for re playability.

Amazing amazing game.
My friend found it at Game Traders at Carousel in Perth. They imported a heap from the states, so they have stickers instead of the cover art violation from the ratings. And it's rated T for Teen! Hehe.
But, wow. I'm about 3 hours in. And it is by far one of the greatest games I have ever experienced.
Definately worth buying. The graphics are brilliant.

the manager at my eb is very knowledgable (female) whilst the non manager female must have been sleeping with the boss to keep her job. I asked her if they had assassins creed for 360 and she asked me what a 360 is!!!!

i said an xbox 360 so she goes and gets someone else to help her find it in the computer.

When I spoke to someone at GameTraders they told me that they'll be ordering the game from the US when it comes out there, don't know if they're doing that at all of them but if not there's always ebay!

Oh, and.. Even if she wasn't the manager, doesn't mean that she could be a ditzy girl.. There are smart, non-ditzy girls who work in gaming stores! And in my experiences, managers can also be ditzy - male or female!

insectoid said: IGN Review says: Rather than presenting players with the classic turn-based style of combat, Crisis Core's combat is essentially entirely real time. You can move around the screen, roll to dodge attacks, and hit a button to block. The R and L triggers are used to cycle between general attacks (as well as pan the camera during standard gameplay), critical attacks, and magic.

there you go. guess it isn't turn based.
