FIRRRST for first time EVERRRR FF 7 over rated!! ohh i said it!
EDiT: GOD DAMN IT!!! i never been 1st ever!!!
Actually FIRST is OVER RATED !!
Hmm, I wonder how long this will take to hit on the US psn store, I might be willing to pay 15$ to play that game again... that is only a might though >.<
perhaps this is a way of square enix testing the waters to see how well received a ff7 remake might be... if this is the case, it seems to be a horrid idea since most of us still have our copies of the original or something.
just cuz i love the game tho i'll prolly download it when it comes to the North American PSN. we will see.
Here's to hoping that they bring it to the US. I think that Americans like this game more than the people in Japan.
If not, I'll just borrow the damn thing from a friend and play in on disc.
I almost cried when I believed it was a remake, officialy! I was phone in hand calling a friend to share the news, BUT YOU BROKE MY HEART BRAD!
People say all the FF haven't aged well, but thats only the case with 7. I played FF7 and hated it then a week later played FF8 and liked it.
"I play FF games normally once and once only . Great fun stories but why would you want to replay it on your sexy HD PS3?All PlayStation 3s are backward compatible with PS1 games.
I'd just buy the old game for pennies if I wanted it.
Edit - doh my PS3 isnt backwards compatible :("
"killdave said:no you cant get it for pennies, last i checked it ranfor 60$"I play FF games normally once and once only . Great fun stories but why would you want to replay it on your sexy HD PS3?All PlayStation 3s are backward compatible with PS1 games. "

Screw this. Give us FF VIII, the single greatest game OF ALL TIME!!! Give us a next-gen Squall Lionheart, Rinoa Heartily, Zell, Irvine and Quistis...
They already did that bullshit, incomprehensible ADVENT'S CHILDREN crap.
I have to drop my usual rant hammer on Final Fantasy 7 - I hate everyones obsession with it, both love and hate. I personally dont like it, not necessarily hate it but it's clearly not TEH GREATEST FF EVER as most young'ings groom it to be. The thing is though even that is my opinion, I grew in a world where I played video games and most other RPGs prior to 7 such as the previous 6 (or 3 on SNES) and they are way better. However most people who swear by 7 only started with 7 and it's burned in their minds now, which is too bad.
Why do people want a remake of a game they loved so much in the past? When you go back and play old games they never hold up and remakes often go poorly wrong. Even if the remake is great the hardcore fans will always say the original was better so tbh noone wins.
I hope they never remake it.
Honestly if they did remake it using a prettier graphics engine and essentially the same game play I'd still buy it.
I know it's cool to hate on the idea of an FFVII remake, but seriously, it would actually be worthwhile. For one thing, the English story is practically incomprehensible in spots because of its lackluster translation. Of course the translation is no where near as bad as the 80s and early 90s JRPGs, but it needs a lot of work. Most of the dialogue works, but all the stuff about "clones" and "calamities from the skies" needs serious clarification. Just ask the FFVII wikipedia entry if you don't believe me.
