Final Fantasy Vii has sold almost 10 million copies to this day. It's a cult classic and it's many peoples first Final Fantasy title. Fans have been clamoring for a remake of Final Fantasy Vii. Does the game really deserve a remake?
When players first popped the final fantasy vii disc into their ps1 they were greeted with great visuals, (for its time) great gameplay, and memorable FMV clips like Aeris's death. The game has gotten a big following since it's release and it's widely considered the best Final Fantasy game. Final Fantasy Vii spawned multiple spin offs of the game and even a complete movie. I think people think that final fantasy vii is the best because it was lots of peoples first final fantasy game. Even the characters in final fantasy vii were amazing and memorable with emotions that made you care. I personally think the story of final fantasy 6 was much better but that is not the point of this blog.
Square Enix In my opinions should not work on a Final Fantasy VII remake. Sure a remake would look beautiful but it's not needed. Square instead of replicating Final Fantasy VII should aim above and try to create the next "Best" final fantasy title. I'm not going to lie, final fantasy 7 was a phenomenal game and if they did remake it I would surely buy it but I want square to go above final fantasy 7. I want to see the next "most" memorable story, best cinematic, and best game-play.
I believe Square can pull it off if we give them a chance.
Even a Final Fantasy VII-2 would be awesome.
Tell me what you all think.
Remedy and Tencent announced today the cancellation of the cooperative multiplayer game known as Project Kestrel (formerly Vanguard) to focus on Alan Wake and Control.
Hades 2 developer Suoergiant Games has possibly hinted at future DLC in what would be another departure from tradition for the developer.

Honestly I was looking back and at the launch of the Xbox 1. With Don Matrick at the helm I was disappointed but therevwas something else. That fighting spirit of Xbox at its inception was lost. They stopped innovating, I lost excitement on what the next big new surprise was, because their weren’t any. Not like Halo 2 and Gears launch. You couldn’t really brag about it anymore.
So here we are and corporate MS has ruined what was a beautiful renegade project.
"Right now"?
But not 11 years ago with the disastrous Xbox One reveal which they NEVER recovered from?
Man are you slow on the uptake.
I imagine smaller ABK studios like toys for bob and beenox are now feeling uncertain about their futures
I think they could make a new game thats just as good ore better, except there's one thing standing in the way. Squareenix is placing more value and development resources on making pretty graphics than they are on making a top notch story. It's they two together that make a great game but they as with many other devs this gen have lost their way amongst the shiny glitter and sparkles world of hd graphics.
Square revisiting a well known success is a sign of creative bankruptcy. Their name alone should be enough to sell games. They shouldn't have to be doing an overly redundant move of drudging up the old brand title of VII within the brand title of Final Fantasy.
I prefer to see alternatives of FF 7 come out, though I am sad they didn't jump onto the bandwagon in the 90's and make a Midgar Babies game. Just thinking of a little chibi Sephiroth in a diaper, storming around all pissed off and grumbling about how the caregiver that looks after the group "isn't his mother."
I swear I saw this exact blog before. Hmm. Anyway, an FF7 remake isn't at all necessary. I wouldn't mind an FF7-2, or a game that finally answers what Genesis was going to do after the end of Dirge of Cerberus, but I've already seen FF7HD thanks to PC mods, so a remake would hold no surprises for me. Now and FF8 remake, I would love that. Or an FF6 remake as well. Or an FFX prequel (which is what FFX-2 should have been in the first place).
But then again, FF7 is at the bottom of my top 5 FF games list. Unless I were to include Spinoffs, then it doesn't even get a spot in the top 5. I don't buy the FF7 hype because I actually played the game and am not afflicted with nostalgia.
because the story was boss, and the experience was great. also, this new generation of gamers is entirely reliant on FPS's. they're addicted. they need to be shown what a boss game is. and those of us that experienced it the first time would thoroughly enjoy an update
