The seventh installment of the Final Fantasy series takes place in a post-modern, steampunk, sci-fi world where high technology reigns and where robots and bio-engineered mutants co-exist with humans and dragons. Like its predecessors, Final Fantasy VII is a role-playing game in Japanese style, featuring turn-based combat with a real-time ATB, "active time battle" element against randomly appearing enemies. Customization in the game revolves around a so-called "Materia" system.
Instead of magic spells, abilities, and bonus stats being saved to a single character, they are saved to Materia orbs, allowing the player to change a character's spells and abilities from the equipment menu at any time.
Materia orbs can be bought in stores or found during exploration. The series' trademark summoned monsters are also contained within specific Materia. Beside experience points, characters also receive ability points that gradually upgrade the abilities of the currently equipped Materia. Anyone have any concrete idea of what the differences between the original PC release and the 'Ultima' version are? I've seen speculation but no one seems to know for sure.

Additionally, while the backgrounds are prerendered, the characters are extremely crude polygonal models when exploring. Particularly when compared to the large battle models, these look terrible on the rare occasion the screen is zoomed in enough to see detail. Music is also a collection of extremes. While a few select tracks are absolutely wonderful, most of the game is permiated with simple pieces which seem a bit rushed, and at times simply grate on the nerves.
Sound effects meanwhile show no real improvement over the earlier SNES titles. The translation on the other hand is quite different from earlier works. Unfortunately, it is also packed with typos and other errors which further obscure what is already a very confusing plot. In fact, years after the game's release, many fans are still scratching their heads over just what happens at the end. The entire game is packed with very engrossing mini-games, ranging from frantic action, to sports, to real time strategy.
Even CPR and hypothermia have their own mini-games.
