感谢你和我来作伴

If you guys didn't know, my grandmother slipped and fell a month ago and was admitted to the hospital. So prior to going on my tour, I spent an entire month in the hospital taking care of her.

Well, she wasn't awake all the while, especially after here physiotherapy, as she would be exhausted and sleeping. So while she was sleeping, it would be very boring for me. So I bought a game to play on my PSP to kill time.

Its quite an old game and its rather cheap.
Introducing...Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII

The game is dated to the time before the Final Fantasy VII.
You play as the character Zack, a soldier second class, mentored by a soldier first class called Angeal. Everything was fine until Angeal disappeared and clones of a missing soldiers start appearing and wreck havoc.
The plot is rather short and I finished the game in a week. I enjoyed the gameplay though, puts you on your guard. Unlike the FFVII gameplay, the player runs around slahing monsters and switching materia and items at the same time. It requires some level of control.
For Cloud fans, you will be very disappointed. Cloud is completely pathetic in the game as he spends a large portion of the time being air sick, PWNED by mobs and suffering from mako overdoes. To add oil to the fire, Zack has a romantic moment with Aerith.
Well, but for people who cannot get over Aerith's death, this game provides comforting evidence that Aerith was not meant for Cloud but for Zack. Rather, its Tifa that was meant for Cloud, because at one point, young cowgirl dressed Tifa asked Zack are there any blonde hair soldiers...erm...demostrating that they were meant for each other? Rather Aerith was waiting for Zack and she sent him 89 letters whereby Zack only reads the last one.(spoiler)
The game ends with a sad ending, but its only necessary to push the plot forward to FFVII. But thanks crisis core for spending time with me...even though there is a sad ending, but its only necessary to push my life forward back to the start of a new semester.
