Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII may well have been a turning point for Square Enix, the moment at which its developers suddenly realized they'd mastered the PSP hardware and should set about milking their success for all it's worth. It was an impressive piece of work -- not just for its technical prowess but also for how perfectly it worked as both a portable game and a spin-off of a blockbuster hit. So the fact that
Kingdom Hearts' first PSP venture (subtitled "Birth By Sleep") evokes the feel of Crisis Core should be regarded as a very good thing.
