Final Fantasy VII will be getting a “new” version of the classic game from the massive franchise and it will be exclusive (for now at least) to the PLAYSTATION 3. It is unclear whether a new version will be a simple remake or an extension to the original like Crisis Core, and if it will be a Blu-ray release, or on the PSN. Something else which won’t be exclusive is the original FF7 which will be coming to the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade by the end of the year.

Both of this info will be officially announced at either Square Enix’s August conference in Japan, or the Tokyo Game Show.

If they put VII on PSN and XBLM, it needs to have a fracking new translation by Alexander O. Smith !!

When I saw the title of the thread I have to admit I thought,
'Dude. . . that game is already out'

I can't remember but i think that i read an interview which said SE wanted to develop a FF VII remake but the mandatory condition was gathering the most part of the old FF VII team and i think it is impossible with Sakaguchi in Mistwalker

They would like to have most of the original team, yes; but Sakaguchi is expandable. They can very well craft a remake without him.

even if they did anounce something at that august conference it would still be years away from seeing release here in the states.  not even gonna worry about this one until something official comes out.

I'm sure plenty of people would buy it whether it's a remake or something else. IMO they're crazy for waiting this long, but since nothing is official yet I won't start holding my breath just yet.

I don't want a remake.  For me, half the fun is playing in the era it came from.  It's like a time capsule.  Well, except for Barret.  The poor dude was typecast in a stereotype, which is borderline racist, though I'm sure their intentions were good at the time.  Other than that, I love the original.

Looking at their other Final Fantasy remakes, I bet it would be a straight-up remake.

Keep this off the XBLA zone, FF7 does not belong on the 360. If this is true, I hope its on the PSN, then on the PSP.

I hope it comes to XBLA. I have always wanted to play this game but can't find it anywhere. I don't use ebay so... anyways this looks really cool. Too bad the FF7 remake is only for PS3.
