the remaking of FF7

I have not played FF7 but maybe there could be new mini games, towns and items aswell as updated graphics

 

This would have been great if I hadn't already forked out the money for the original. Plus, because lots of people won't buy it and because of the cost of the project (not a simple port) they would have to put the price up to around £40 (that's around $55) which would put even more people off.

 

i think you are both right, they should be done

but video game sales are down by a certain percentage, so they are gonna make more or remake the popular ones just to be back on top (that is the taking advantage part)

 

They're reporting/remaking a bunch of classics from back in the day, I hardly see what's stopping them (the companies).


Red alert 2
Chrono Trigger
All the Early FF games
Mana Series (I think?)

There are more, I just don't pay attention to any others.

 

Personally I'd LOVE to see Final Fantasy 7 remade in a similar fashion to how 13 is worked. Free roaming looking similar to 13 or Kingdom Hearts, much better graphics, voice acting, etc. HOWEVER, I'd have gripes if certain things changed:

The Battle System: Not that I hate the system in 13, I love it, but leave FF7's system alone. It's a remake for a reason, don't mess it up by CHANGING it, reMAKE, not rePLACEMENT.

Mini-Games: Keep all of them for GOD's sake, when games are remade and the creators leave out things that not everyone found/cared about, it infuriates me. And do NOT make Yuffie and Vincent mandatory characters. They were OPTIONAL in 7, don't make them mandatory just because someone saw advent children and doesn't understand where they are.

And above all else, cater to the REAL final fantasy 7 fans, not the people who played half of disc one and have decided that it's the "Best Final Fantasy ever!" just because everyone else thinks so.

 

if they keep it to the way they remade FF III and IV, then it is ok (story wise and gameplay)

but, if they take just ONE thing away from the original, then it shouldn't be called a remake

 

Personally, since 7 is my first and favorite final fantasy, I would buy a remake that is roughly the same, just enhanced haha

 

Remake "Possibility"

Here


"So far, Square Enix has said that a Final Fantasy VII remake would be "unrealistic," "tough to do in HD" and "not happening." But hold out hope, die-hards, because during an interview at FFXIII's launch party, Square Enix CEO Yoichi Wada finally admitted that the company is "going to explore the possibility" of revisiting the classic RPG. He didn't completely reverse the long-held position, as he says Square Enix has to decide "whether or not we're going to do it, if we're going to do it, and the platform," but he did finally admit that there have been a lot of fan requests to see the game in a new form, so he's giving it some solid thought.

Of course, the huge success of the game's re-release on PSN probably didn't hurt either. If Square's convinced a remake will sell (and people will play through Gaia yet again, possibly even on yet another platform), we'll probably see it somewhere sooner or later."

 

I would love a remake of FFVII. As long as it is the unaltered game. No changes to anything except graphics. I want to enjoy the game that I grew to love, not some altered to be far worse game. I think that the game has done good enough to get a remake for a High-def system. As long as nothing is changed, it's cool with me.

 

Well if Square makes a remake of Chain of Memories, I don't see why not.

 

I would go out and buy whatever console a remake was released on just for that game and that game alone!
