Why Final Fantasy VII’s remake is a big deal, even if you didn’t play the original

Perhaps you've seen FF7 in the Google Play store or heard about it coming out on the Nintendo Switch. Maybe you thought about getting it, but changed your mind because the graphics look weird and blocky. Or maybe you just weren't sure what you would be paying for.

Well, cast those worries aside. Here is a primer on FF7 and why now would be a good time to try diving into this old game.

Its a big deal even if it turns out to be crap.

PhantomS422217d ago

It's looking good so far but only time will tell.

meep3162217d ago (Edited 2217d ago )

It looks terrible to me so far, episodic and a god awful mindless combat system... I want it to be good, but it’s looking awful. I was hoping they would do it more like the resident evil 2 remake and less like a completely different game with the same story.

Fist4achin2217d ago

Not sure how I feel about the episodic release...

"god awful mindless combat system"
You all n.v of that from a 2 minute trailer?

meep3162216d ago

theres been more than one trailer, and its Nomura...

pietro12122216d ago

Both Mitsunori Takahashi and Kyohei Suzuki are also working on the gameplay too. That's why I remain hopeful. Nomura's involvement does worry (I'm not a Kingdom Hearts fan and the development history of FF vs. XIII aka FFXV was a mess).

Not having any Xenoblade Chronicles games on the list is a crime.

CUnit12312398d ago

Sorry lol. I wrote the article but 5 of us voted for many different games and majority went on the list then we worked on the list. If it were just my personal top favorite we'd seen some xenoblade and star ocean as well as some others. Thanks for checking out it!

RavenWolfx97d ago

Chrono Trigger at 31 makes my heart hurt.

Zeldafan6496d ago

Not having any Xenoblade Chronicles games on the list at all is a crime.

The effort here is impressive. Hope it doesn’t get taken down.

fr0sty308d ago

He should have done it in Dreams though, the limitations of having done it in LBP are obvious.

solideagle308d ago

ah Dreams had so much potential, I think they should have released it on PC. one can only dream about dreams sale and popularity on PC. PC has modding/creative crowd and I think it would have been a hit

gleepot307d ago

I love seeing projects like this. So much passion and time.
