Metal Gear Solid 
Final Fantasy VII Overall Comparison The only similar things these games really have is epic storylines. However, FFVII just can not compare to the action of MGS. One cannot deny that FFVII did stir up emotions. Many times has FFVII caused anger and frustration every time two steps was taken to reveal a flash and yet another annoying random battle.
However, MGS was able to provide a sense of suspense and anticipation, while still maintaining feelings of sorrow, hatred, and accomplishment.

I really really really love the MGS series, but something about FF7 makes it just a tiny bit better in my eyes. The constant random battles are annoying but hey, how about running back all the way to B2 or whatever to get the sniper rifle. Of course, that only happens once, whereas the random battles are endless.
