Bio
I've always been an avid gamer. Mostly grew up on PlayStation consoles, but I've played Nintendo, Xbox, and Sega periodically throughout my life. I try to rate games based on the context of how the game compares to others in its genre and the time the game released, as well as my overall enjoyment. A 5 star for one genre of game, may not hold the same weight as a 5 star for another genre of game.

My opinion of this version is mostly the same as the original PS version. Still an iconic game with a great story and music. Everything that was great in the original is still here, although the same can be said for many of the dated elements. I'd say the Switch version is overall an improvement though, thanks to some translation fixes and the gameplay tweaks, such as speed up and no random encounters. I'd say that this is probably the best official way to play the original version of FF7.
One of the most influential JRPG's of all time. Growing up, I only knew these characters through Kingdom Hearts, but I later wanted to go back and experience the game they came from. I was never the biggest fan of turn-based combat, but it grew on me. The Materia system was really fun to experiment with. Some of the minigames are a bit of a slog to get through. I love the overall world, though Midgar and Junon are definitely the most memorable locations in my opinion. The soundtrack is consistently great. The story still holds up well, though it has unfortunately been spoiled for many just due to pop culture. An overall classic, but weighed down by some dated mechanics and some primitive, albeit charming graphics.
A decent track expansion with classic AC/DC songs. Really has no reason to be a standalone release instead of DLC. I bought it solely to add to my library for later Rock Band games. I love AC/DC, but I'm not the biggest fan of these live recordings for the most part. It's cool to have the songs in the library, but I would've preferred to just download the studio versions.
