Hmm I didn't feel cheated by the game, just had a good laugh at some of the incredibly cheesy dialogue about friends and your heart, it was all about morals I think! I would have liked to see a little more to do with the plot from the films, and from the other Square characters (namely the CloudAeris miniscule plot, it was almost there!!)
But all in all it was a fun game to play, everyone needs a bit of mindless bashing every now and again...

Oh yes and the added bonus of David Boreanaz voicing Squall.... *drool*
