Your expected Final Fantasy VII Remake rumor, just to keep track of these annual traditions:

The game will be 20 years-old in 2017.

FF7 remake rumours have been going around since before FF7 was released.

Maybe this time it's real. Either way it will probably come out before The Last Guardian.

 

[Deleted member 13524]

Will you look at that?
FF VII remake DOUBLE CONFIRMED on Sony's presentation.
Perhaps we'll get some gameplay in SE's presentation.

so SquarEnix acknowledge at last that it doesn't have the skills to make a better FF game...
(That was the reason they said they didn't want to make a FF7 remake...)

 

[I.S.T.]

Well, the first given reason was that it'd bankrupt the company. When did that reason get announced?

It would probably sell more than any other emo iteration, and cost as much or less considering no open world

 

[DJ12]

Some portions were free roam, they will do well to exploit this and add done side quests.

It's was less linear than ff13 and ff13-2

They nailed Lara's facial animation, she looks truly alive.

 

[London Geezer]

Please please please give us FF7 with the same combat system. I miss the old days.

 

[London Geezer]

OMG KINGDOM HEARTS

 

[L. Scofield]

Square Enix's president is such a troll

 

[Nesh]

Have they showed anything on FF7 yet? Or said anything about TR's exclusivity?

 

[Nesh]

wow seems PS4 is getting some exclusives they didnt announce at Sony's conference. Star Ocean looks like a PS4 exclusive. At least that might push some Japanese sales in the region

 

[London Geezer]

The guy actually said that FF7 remake is being developed 'for PS4'............ hmmmm....

 

[Nesh]

So they covered FF7 at the conference? I must have missed it. I was hoping for some real time footage

 

[London Geezer]

Same CGI trailer with an introduction...
Hitman looked like a lot of fun.

Deus Ex now!

Square has some big games under the hood. Damn.

 

[Nesh]

Yes Hitman seems to offer huge possibilities on how to approach the assasinations. I like

 

[London Geezer]

And they have a new studio?!! All for JRPGs. And they have a completely new RPG being made. Love.

 

[Nesh]

Its pretty surprising considering that most of the games announced are pretty huge projects. Thats a lot of money, lots of planning, lots of management and lots of risk.
