The Musings Of The Consensus

 I, in my official capacity as a writer for Christ Centered Gamer, have reviewed both FF7 Remake and Rebirth. Being a veteran of the OG FF7 on PS1, I have been overall pleased with both. Before I cover what they've done right, I'm going to mention two annoying things first as a form of preemptive balance. Also, I shall avoid dropping major spoilers except where absolutely necessary. First, being effectively a stealth sequel of the original, I find the remakes to be, for a total series noob, to be a bit too indulgent on assuming the player knows how the original story goes at times, especially all the side materials.

It's another cheese like the Manchego I tried a while back, but where I found Manchego not fun for eating by itself ...
