MMGN: Over the Christmas break, the Vita turned one in Japan. In Australia, we’ve had the device in our hands for eleven months, and we’ve watched as the price quietly dropped a whole heap as no one bought the damn thing. But the Vita is a damn neat little system, a consistently impressive machine, and one that you might well want to look into now that the inevitable lull-periods of a year’s beginning are on the horizon.
Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?
Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.
Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...
... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.
Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣
Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.
Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.
Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.
It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.
I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.
Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.
Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

i don't have the money ):
Vita is getting some phone games, and honestly that alone shows why the vita is so awesome. Using the rear touch pad so you can actually see what you are doing on the screen is such an overlooked feature. Honestly wish phones would get this!
That and its longwise screen with clarity is way awesome for side scrolling games. Apple went the opposite way, which to me didn't have gaming in mind with the decision.
Because there is no point. Vita hardly has any games and if I get any handheld then I'd rather get a 3DS as it has a better exclusive lineup.
It is too expensive to get into it.
i think Vita is doing poorly not only because of what people consider high price or not enough content but because handheld market has shrunk
Vita is not targeting 3DS crowd, its going after core fan base and has more of a home console approach. Mobile Market has taken a big share out of gaming handheld. why pay for a $40 game when you can buy one from app store for $2.99
IMO in the long run Vita will do fine maybe it won't sell 70-80 million units but if it stays on the market and gets some support i can see 40-50 million lifetime sales. Let's get one thing out of the way its a awesome machine
price is what people complain about yet they have forgotten so fast that most were expecting minimum of $349-299 price point so when it launched at $249 it was a low price to begin with. Also this Theory about not having a lot of games, well Vita Launched with 25 Games so maybe sony should have spread those out over a 6-8 months period.
but than is that also what we want from ps4 and next xbox? should both companies launch with a lot of software upfront than nothing for a year or should it be 10 games at launch but than 1-2 new games each month or every other month? It seems like to me a system launches with 20 games 2 months later people are asking where are the games
Been a long time PS brand fan and have come to realize that with sony its not a race, its a marathon.
Get Vita if you have the money, or wait for some good sale like they had at black friday with memory card and a game.
