The Weekly Stuff #340 – The Final Fantasy VII Episode

<p>After giving some quick first impressions of Sucker Punch’s outstanding <i>Ghost of Tsushima </i>for PS4, this episode is fully dedicated to one long-awaited topic: <i>Final Fantasy VII. </i>This year’s PS4 remake, yes, but also the PS1 original, and the PSP spin-off <i>Crisis Core, </i>and the depressingly abysmal movie <i>Advent Children. </i>We talk about it all, having both finally journeyed through the complete <i>Final Fantasy VII </i>experience for the first time this year, diving deep into why the original remains such a unique and powerful pillar of narrative gaming despite plenty of dated elements, and why the <i>Remake </i>just didn’t do it for us despite its good character work and production values. If you’ve been waiting to hear us talk about <i>Final Fantasy VII </i>in any or all of its forms, this is the episode for you. </p><p><strong>Time Chart:</strong></p><p>Intro: 0:00:00 – 0:02:29 </p><p><i>Ghost of Tsushima </i>Impressions: 0:02:29 – 0:22:18 </p><p><i>Final Fantasy VII</i>: 0:22:18 – 3:25:24</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6QsXZYt12NIzF224GKBA0g"><strong>Subscribe to our YouTube Channel!</strong></a></p><p><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/wgtc-radio-we-got-this-covered/id535584943"><strong>Subscribe for free to 'The Weekly Stuff' in iTunes!</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/JonathanLack"><strong>Follow Jonathan Lack on Twitter!</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/SeanTheChapman"><strong>Follow Sean Chapman on Twitter!</strong></a></p>
