Has anyone played this, in either it's Japanese or North American formats? My sister got it on pre-order apparently and I've been playing it a bit. It's a fun PS2-style shooter and I'm enjoying the storyline thus far. The music is also a nice plus, and thus far my favorite is when you're in Edge (I'm only to the second part of Chapter 4 thus far).
I wasn't expecting to play as Cait Sith, and the one mission I'm on with him makes him kinda damn useless (then again, I never used him much in the game, either

). I'm not sure how to beat this "sneak around Reactor 0" mission yet, but I'm sure I'll figure it out. Sure won't be by fighting though.

Well, a shooter with plenty of RPG elements.

Really? I heard it was crap. And, to be honest, I didn't have much faith in SE to pull off a decent shooter (I don't even like shooters anyway). I still probably won't get it, but I know a guy who might if it turns out to be decent.

The reviews I've read were less than flattering. I don't understand why they need to continually fuck with FF7 here. Movies and spin-off games. Why? The original was pretty OK so why not leave it at that.
The obvious answer is $$$, I know. I have difficulty wrapping my mind around it nonetheless.

It makes about as much sense as Star Wars relentlessly focusing on the Skywalker/Solo Dynasty; ie, only from a business perspective.
