I would pay a $100 for a PS3 remake of FF7. Then I would pay the $300 for a PS3. The PS3 Tech demo of the opening is fantastic.

For years I was clinging on to the hope that they would do something with that tech demo and turn it into a remake.

It's not gonna happen though

It's their loss.

A re-make of FFVII would sell more copies than any new (non-MMO) one that they come up with

It's not that SquareEnix doesn't want to do it, it's that they've been stretched so thin with multiple releases over the past few years. Once the behemoth that is Final Fantasy XIII is finally finished, they might decide to launch a remake. Everything is written and designed already, so it would probably cut the production time in half.

I think they'd be crazy not to take the opportunity to cash in on an update. I also hope they don't assume the sales will be extraordinary and that we get a polished product that doesn't seem like they're tossing a dog biscuit for the loyal fans.

The only problem is that you know if they follow through with it, fans will only be clamoring for updates of some of the others in the series. They'll never be satisfied.

Remake

This was posted early last year but that's the last I ever heard of it.

If Sony was smart, they'd pressure Square to remake FF7 as a PS4 launch title. They could probably price the damn console at $1000 and there would still be shortages

Leave well enough alone IMO, they haven't even remade Chrono Trigger, what makes you think they will do another FF7?

When they did "remake" CT, all they did was add something pointless and keep the same game otherwise.

Because 2D games have a timeless aspect. They're still made today.

The harsh and jagged polygonal design in FF7 really dates it... in the same way special effects do action movies. It may look spectacular now, but as technology improves, it will just begin to look cheesy.

I just got to the part where aeris takes you home and her mom makes you leave in the middle of the night.

This storyline was so far ahead of its time for video games back then! Its awesome.

The only good FF game on the playstation console, if you ask me.

8 and 9 are varying degrees of suck. 8 being the worst Final Fantasy game not involving Yuna forming Spira's version of Charlie's Angels

After 9 I gave up on the franchise. I played 1-9 on all the consoles but after playing 7 and becoming such a fan boy when I was younger, nothing else could live up to my standards. 8 was cool for the card game though haha

I'm not sure what all of the backlash against X is about, but I think that is one of the two best games in the series. If the hatred hinges on Tidus being a whiney bitch, a quick look through that series will make it apparent that you could do a lot worse.

I never played X. But I know they did a X-2 and I tried playing it at my cousins house once and was like "there is an abnormal amount of vag in my party"

X-2 totally shite on X and pissed me off, but oddly enough I enjoyed it.

The combat is fun and so is going back to the places from the first game.

Guilty pleasure, to say the least. Even if the story is fricking moronic and inane.
