Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion Graphics Comparison - 2007 vs. 2022

From IGN: "The original Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion was released all the way back in 2007, and was an exclusive to PlayStation handheld system, the PlayStation Portable (PSP). The game is now being remastered and is being released on all platforms on December 12, 2022. Check out a side-by-side comparison of how much the graphics have evolved in 15 years."

Looks like a Remake. Is there any other Remaster that has completely remade assets and changes to gameplay and added cinematics (like for the summons in this game)? I guess my question is how is this any different than say Demon's Souls Remake, Last of Us Part 1 Remake, or even the Dead Space Remake?

Magic_Spatula508d ago (Edited 508d ago )

Exactly. Don't know why outlets are calling it a Remaster. The game literally has all new assets, changed/updated mechanics, new voice cast, runs on a different engine, new or smother animation transitions in battle for Zack, and adjustments to the story and a bunch of other things. It's clearly not a Remaster. Also support for full 3D camera due to having a second analog stick.

Is it a troll comparison? A PSP game vs PS5?

RaidenBlack70d ago

How well the crisis core still stacks up to the next gen Remake ~ that's the point of the remake
And as Digital Foundry pointed out after playing the demo, the Rebirth has flaws and is not much an upgrade from Integrade and still has texture problems

RaidenBlack70d ago

* that's the point of the comparison

Babadook770d ago (Edited 70d ago )

Remake had the same type of texture flaws (rare ones at that) as this game and I disagree with DF in both cases. Rebirth is easily the best example of RPG graphics in 2024 just like Remake was in 2020.

Snookies1270d ago

Rebirth not looking much better than Integrade is perfectly acceptable. Considering it's now open world where the Remake was completely linear. Remake still looks amazing to this day, and Rebirth looks even better.

They did do an amazing job on Reunion though. Never thought I'd see the day we'd get a return of Crisis Core, lol.

fsfsxii70d ago

Digital foundry always nitpicks ps5 games, but will look the other way when it comes to literally anything nintendo. They could put out a 240p game and DF would still praise it.

it's Crisis Core Reunion on PS5. I don't think anyone is expecting the graphics to be compared, but the design and to compare the same scenes between the two games.

Knightofelemia70d ago

A cleaned up PSP version vs a game built for the PS5 really? I can see the Tomb Raider trilogy remaster vs the PS1 versions. But using this is like night and day.

northpaws70d ago

Of course rebirth looks much better... but I am surprised how good crisis core reunion looks too, I have never played that one.

RaidenBlack70d ago

Thats the point of the comparison

Soy70d ago

IMO shows how great of a job they did with Crisis Core to bring it up to the Remake's standards/style.

MeteorPanda69d ago (Edited 69d ago )

I really enjoyed Crisis core remaster - the only thing l hated was the easy to miss side quests. like legit if you didnt run out and talk to a woman on your first HQ visit you missed on the optional final boss cause no 100%. like cmon. let us replay chapters to get the content.

Which is why lm glad they took that feedback and confirmed that nothings missable or timelocked in rebirth.
