| 9.5 | Presentation An astoundingly well put together game. Gorgeous cinematics and a deep, often poetic story make this a must-play for Final Fantasy fans. | |
| 8.5 | Graphics Great character models and stylish effects. The PSP is definitely being pushed hard. | |
| 8.5 | Sound Commendable voice acting and a surprisingly charming score. | |
| 7.5 | Gameplay Crisis Core has a few problems, camera and repetition being at the forefront, but the overall experience won't disappoint. | |
| 8.0 | Lasting Appeal There's a lot to do. I spent about twenty hours completing the main story, and that doesn't even count the hundreds of side missions. | |
| 8.5 | OVERALL (out of 10 / not an average) |  |
Frankly, I'm a little disappointed in the review. bashing the RPG portable game's SIDE-mission for 'repetition' is calling SSBB a button masher. Of course they are repetitive, but that's what RPG fans love, collect items that would otherwise be considered MINDLESS to other genre lovers.
8.0 for lasting appeal is almost insulting. This is by far one of the longest game on PSP, I'm 10 hours in with half the game to go and only 25% of Missions completed. COmpare that to 6 hours on God of War.
And I'm not even going to comment on the 8.5 on the 'graphics' part, go watch some of the in-game play and speak for yourself.
