    I've been restricted to play video games since PS2 unless I give up on modding my car. (A married guy sayin'..)

    Would love to see if they also remake the Advent Children tho.

    She doesn’t want you to do both, because of time or money? Or both? Hey if she can go shopping, get her nails done, or get that expensive hairdo…you can play video games. :lawl:

    The 'turn-based' battle system is not used much anymore in RPG's, if at all. I prefer it personally, I hope they keep that the same since they are calling this a remake. But who knows.

    This might be one reason for me to buy a PS4... I bought a PS3 cause of GTAV lol

    I remember playing this back in the mid to late 90s with FF8 and FF9 on all PS1. Good times! Since then never played another FF game

    Probably time. I won't be able to function myself for other tasks until I get more energies.


    Yeah, that full CG FF7 movie.



    I played FF2 ~ 5, 7 ~ 11. Spent the longest time on either 8 or 9, but FF3 is my favorite. Even played the remake ver. on Nintendo DS lol. Remake games bring back my good o'l memories. :)

    :rofl:

    Good one! :lawl:

    I bought a PS2 because of Vice City lol.

    You haven’t missed much. X was okay, and I never played XII. But XIII was absolutely terrible (couldn’t finish it), and I laughed when they made XIII-2. I’ve been playing VI (III in the US) and it is infinitely better than any FF title from Square lately. I feel they have lost their way and I think remakes of their classic titles are really in their best interest. I’ve been hoping for a FFVII remake for a long time, thought it would never happen. Guess Square decided they like money again lol.

    I’ll be buying a PS4 for this game too. In 2017 or whenever it comes out haha.

    I’m kind of to this point with games where I’m more interested in remakes than new releases. Some new games are great, but I’d get far more satisfaction from seeing games (like FF II, III, or Chrono Trigger) that were made in times of limited technology remade today with how far consoles have come. Seeing some of the old games realized with today’s capabilities would be incredible. And they are all guaranteed cash cows, the good ones anyway.

    I love FF II, but FF III is great too…I’m playing the PS remake of III right now. Never got to play the SNES version, but at local vintage game stores copies go for good money.

    I imagined the motorcycle chase scene in CG's. lol

    I've been an FF fan since first playing FFVII. I've never posted anything video game related on the forum since I had no idea you guys played.

    The FFVII remake isn't a remaster like FFX HD, but an actual remake by a third party company other than Square. While disappointing, it's probably best to keep Square away from the game since most of the staff responsible for the early success of the FF series has left the company.

    In my initial excitement I thought I may have to buy a PS4 for this game, but the trailer states that it will "come to PS4 first." I honestly doubt it will come to Xbox like FFXIII, but a PC release on Steam seems obvious after the success of the Final Fantasy ports already on Steam.

    Obviously nothing has been announced as far as gameplay or story. With the spinoffs since FFVII's original release, I imagine they'll try to incorporate, or at least hint at Advent Children, Crisis Core, and Dirge of Cerberus. I highly doubt they'll take many risks with gameplay changes.
