Ehrgeiz

"Innovative And Different"

Ehrgiez is one of the most original games created by Squaresoft.It's a fighting game,which pits fighters in a 3-D enviorment (every one is different).But the most interstring thing about this game is that it has characters from Final Fantasy VII in it!You can select Cloud,Vincet,Yuffie,Tifa,and even the very cool Sepiroth!This is something that many people have wanted to see;characters from one game against characters from another.This factor alone really gets some attention for gamers looking for something different.It even has some cool mini-games,such as a game where you race around an arena and try to beat your enemy to the goal.It has a quest mode as well,where you can go exploring throughout a world and look for items and adventure (sorry I can't really go into detail because I am writing on the Japenese version and I don't understand japenese.)But the game does have some flaws.For example,a three (or sometimes, a four) hit combo can easily be figured out by simply smashing a few buttons.And some of the cool FF VII characters will have to be earned.But otherwise, this game is worth the time.And even if you're not into FF VII,give it a try.It definatly brings something new to a fighting game.
