Why re-release an old game that has been on PC since the 90's without any real upgrades

xtheownerzx4312d ago (Edited 4312d ago )

SMH i am honestly baffled by this. I mean all they really did was include achievements, and cloud saves. LOL I think SE is just trolling us now.

Capt-FuzzyPants4312d ago

Because it will make money. If you look at it from a business poin t of view in Square's position this is just easy money. REALY easy money. Plus they're going to try to squeeze all of the money out of the original before they remake it.

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4312d ago

maybe it symbolizes SE making pc a platform for more final fantasy games in the future?

Moncole4312d ago

Why waste time and resources when modders can make it look better for free? And this way people with bad computers cant say they cant run it.

Wuu4312d ago

It's so sad, i will buy it day one! :(

Irishguy954312d ago

Thw PC version was also the worst with..modifying some things. The songs sucked compared to the console version, and I don't even know why. They sounded alot worse though

Feralkitsune4312d ago

Lie some moar, please. Go ahead.

Irishguy954312d ago

Apologies, that was FF8. Not FF7. It used Midi sound files instead of Mp3 for some unjust reason. Which you would have to replace with the P1's Mp3 if you wanted it to sound as good as originally meant to.

"Hey look Fans want us to remake FF:VII"

"Hmm... we don't have time for that, just re-release the same game with achievements and cloud saves"

*troll face*

Bimkoblerutso4312d ago

I seriously don't know what the hell is going through the heads of Square-Enix's higher ups 99% of the time these days.

Mr_Kuwabara4312d ago

Funny thing is that people will buy the game just to collect those dumb achievements. Just makes companies say "Why Bother?".

noxeven4312d ago

I heard we weren't gonna get a steam release for this and while id love to get a version of this that works on windows 7. Guess only time will tell

GillHarrison4312d ago

The game is already in the Steam registry.

DJ4312d ago

Just realized Uncharted 3 looks better than these CGI screens from the PS1 days. I love how they totally avoided showing real gameplay.

Chrono4312d ago

It's the same game, you can see it here:

Irishguy954312d ago

Only the character models. FF8 for example, it's Cg still destroys Uncharted.

ItemGet4312d ago

Was saddened to find no screenshots here, only artwork.

But we all know what it will look like!

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

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?

ravens5215d ago

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.

MrNinosan15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5215d ago

... 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.

VIK212115d ago (Edited 15d ago )

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

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5214d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5214d ago

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.

Barlos15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

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.

Tapani15d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum15d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman15d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim15d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

I disagree Batman

Rise of the ronin sold twice as much as Dragons Dogma 2 this week...but no articles about that. It's only news if a PS exclusive is being outsold.
