Origins In 1997, Square (now Square-Enix) released the marvel that is Final Fantasy VII. Well received by all, it warranted further attention and the producers behind it dually obliged. In 2005, Advent Children catered to almost every desire of the franchise' fans, the main wish being to see all their heroes in high definition, detailed models. That said, the fans of the game aren't going to settle for second best, meddling with the story and characters could prove fatal, however the makers seemed to have kept their heads and stayed true to what the game and its characters stood for.

Final Fantasy VII is often considered one of the best Final Fantasy games, so it's only natural that there'd be an eventual barrage of sequels and spin-offs. And enter the Compilation Final Fantasy VII, which focused on the stories of the characters at different parts of the FFVII timeline. Advent Children is set two years after the events of the game, and Cloud is living with Tifa as a delivery boy, but is haunted by past events, especially the deaths of - (spoilers, but you should have played the game, guys) Zack and Aerith. He gets attacked by three men, who are apparently remnants of Sephiroth, who are awaiting a reunion with "Mother" Jenova. ...  Read the complete review
