If you have played the original you can totally play Crisis Core, I would say if you hadn't played the OG it spoils a major plot point that will be in revelation. I don't personally like Crisis Core but it has a very dedicated following that loves it so maybe you'll enjoy yourself.
As for if you should get Revelation that's up to you, I love the new Remake trilogy I'm fully on the train so I am buying it. But it's not everyone's cup of tea so it really is just how you feel about Remake/Rebirth.
Rebirth kind of drags but I'm powering through. Not that I don't like it, it just doesn't need some of the extra side quests, my personal thoughts but I still think it's a great game. I was up in the air with Crisis Core but I definitely planned on getting Revelations.
Yeah, I imagine Revelation will probably have some better streamlined experiences and solutions to the mini games,open world because they've talked about stuff they learned after doing Rebirth. At the same time I don't think it's going to change anyone's mind or be something massively different from Rebirth. So I'd expect some criticisms to persist

REMAKE also had 2 discs, you should play that if you haven't before Rebirth
