-''[[Dirge of Cerberus]]: [[Final Fantasy VII]]'' is a sequel and spinoff of the [[Running Gag|whiplash-inducingly popular]] ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'', and was released for the Sony [[Play Station 2]]. Unlike other games in the series, ''Dirge'' is a [[Third-Person Shooter]] with [[RPG Elements]], starring broody ally Vincent Valentine as he fights to come to terms with his past. Although nearly all of the ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' characters make some appearance, focus is off the main characters and onto ones who didn't get much screentime in the original. It includes a [[Retcon]] of a scene late in the game which assumed that Vincent and [[Ninja|Yuffie]], who were optional [[Secret Character|Secret Characters]], were not in your party.

 Generally considered the weakest of the ''Compilation Of [[Final Fantasy VII]]'', and has been criticized for camera, control and targeting issues and lack of difficulty. Its story has garnered mixed reviews.

 ''DOC'' takes place one year after ''[[Final Fantasy VII Advent Children|Advent Children]]'' and infamously creates a tie-in with ''[[Crisis Core]]'', released afterwards but canonically taking place before the original game. Said tie-in involves J-Pop star [[Gackt]] in a rare (for video games) live-action cameo.

At first, {{spoiler|you might think that Hojo is affecting the way that Weiss laughs}}, but the [["Everybody Laughs" Ending|group laughter]] at the end of the Online Mode reveals that no, he just laughs like that naturally. Most of the Tsviets are also guilty of this -- they may be evil, but they have a ''very'' healthy sense of humor.

 * [[No Export for You]]: Want to make sense of the situation with Weiss? Or Deepground's origins and how they [[Turned Against Their Masters]]? Too bad, because all that stuff was only included in a Japan-only online mode where players would control a Deepground/WRO soldier in team-based battles. This was replaced with additional missions in the English version, without any of the online mode's storyline included.
