[Discussion] Final Fantasy VII Remake - Vol. VII

quote Neomancer Mike

I'm just not the type of person to buy a whole new platform for simply one game.

quote 000DESTRUCT0

The PSP doesn't have a lot to offer, does it

quote Ghost of You

well you cant do that if you want the movie and games to be linked, because vincent and yuffie were optional to have, but you would have to have them in order for teh movie and other games to make sense.

quote Dante_101

As being an absolutely dedicated fan to this game, all I would actually 'want', is for them to port this game to PSN so I can play it on the go. I don't need a graphics boost or anything. I'm not saying it wouldn't be great, but I'm pretty sure I'm content with the fact the original probably holds more charm than the remake would. Only time will tell WHEN they remake the game. It's not IF anymore, it's most definately when...

quote Final Blade

I wouldn't mind them using the battle system from FFX and tweak it to fit FF7 and the materia system as well. But must have the turn base.

quote Sharkeye

maybee if they speeded up the battle a bit because sometimes after a move they stand there for a few seconds and for every battle and after every attack that happens that is a LOT of seconds gone

quote Eightfold

but theres to much money to be had from it for them not to make it so its probably best to accept it

quote Eightfold

and just pray they make a good job of it, if they make an impact with it like they did the original then they'll have a new found respect from many people.

Final Blade,

The PS3 is hard to develop games for because of the funky Cell processor. The Cell is just a single core with a bunch of logic units stuck on to it. Sony's main problem with the PS3 is the X360, which has a (much easier to code for) true 3-core processor. The PSP is old tech really... it's been around for a while so most people who will have them already do, so they're pretty much screwed in the mobile market right now since the PS3 is far too hot and power hungry to be able to compress into a handheld package... In order to make a sucessor to the PSP they would need to redesign something from the ground up.

quote Matt Addison

Looking at how graphically enhanced scenes can now be - I believe it would be interesting to see whether or not Square-Enix will be toning down the Honey Bee Inn scenes where Mukki bathes with Cloud an like a dozen other males. The graphical capacity of the Playstation wasn't able to process things such as changing out of costumes and bathing naked (and it would have looked silly in blocky form). So I wonder if that will be toned down - or if scenes like that will rise the ESRB rating of the game if they kept true to the original, and you actually get to see nekkie bathing Cloud with nekkie Honey Bee Inn male attendants?

quote Yumpster

believe the longer people have to wait for something they know is coming, the less excited they are when it actually comes out.
