    Default What's up with Square-Enix

    It has been said that FF7 will be remade for the PS2 or even the PS3 but alot of websites say no. Does anybody know what is going on.

    This all stems from a tech demo shown at E3 last May. The Demo was the opening movie of FF7 with PS3 graphics. People saw this and thought there was a remake of FF7 coming out when Square-Enix have said it was just a tech demo and have no plans on making a remake of FF7 for the PS3.

    Exactly. People seemed to have forgotten that Square has done this before using Final Fantasy VIII as a tech demo for the PS2 a while back. HOWEVER, we can hope, right?

    to go into a little more detail of what kryptin said, Squareenix also announced a Final Fantasy in the works for PS3, but they wouldn't say what it was called. This also has some people saying that FF7 will be remade for PS3.

    As a plus to this rumor, people should realize they're Squre-Enix now. So as far as rumors go it's entirely plausable
    *PSA* Wii Redump collector's can now unscrub ISO files. So scrubbed games can now be verified. You can find the program to do this here

    The closest thing to a FFVII remake now is the anime Last Order. It's an OVA that will ship with the limited edition of FF:AC, and will contain the flashback scenes. Let me dig up a few pictures.

    EDIT:

    This Square business is confusing all this stuff about ff12 on E3 or somethin and now anime.
    For X3 there was a rumour a while back that X3 would star Rikku as the main character but then again it was only a rumour....

    Speaking of Tech demos, you wouldn't happen to have one of the FF7 PS3 tech demos on you, would you?

    Actually, They are making a remake of FFVII. They're just being "quiet" about it.

    http://www.ps3portal.com/?view=article&article=137

    As for the E3 demo, just google for it.


    The reason there hasnt been an official announcement about the FFVII for PS3 is because they're not sure how long it will take to make the game. It's not just going to be a simple remake on the PS3, it will be more like an extreme upgrade.

    The game itself will have the "COMPLETE" FFVII storyline. So that's everything from the entire "FFVII Compilation" (with the exception of Vincent's game) put into the new PS3 title. That's alot of work for one game and if they reveal it too quick, without knowing how long development will take, it could come back to haunt Square-enix.

    It will most likely be released in Late 2007.
