Sony Computer Entertainment America (“Sony”) has agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that it deceived consumers with false advertising claims about the “game changing” technological features of its PlayStation Vita handheld gaming console during its U.S. launch campaign in late 2011 and early 2012.
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.

Wow, seriously? I bought mine before June 2012...
yeah, just like microsoft deceiving exclusive announcements.
Sony trying to do kinda the same thing here and now forced to pay compensation.
hopefully this will teach them a lesson.
Sony advertised the ps3 at 120fps too.
Lmfao.
Omg, I wondered if anyone would ever say anything about this. I remember watching the ad over and over in walmart on our display kiosk the first year and wondering how they got away with it. They were advertising remote play with Ps3 that didn't come anywhere near working until the PS4 came out. Not to mention the fact that remote play was useless and impossible on the 3G data plan offered. The commerical showed games that weren't even on Vita being played portably. They were also advertising being able to stop a game on Ps3 and then resume it immediately on the Vita. I believe the game in the commerical was MLB. It really made it look amazing but then it came out and....Nope. The Vita is a wonderful handheld maybe my favorite of all time discounting nostalgia from the original gameboy and slightly above the DS. Those initial advertisements were definitely deceptive.
Edit: I wrote this comment before reading the article from my own experience. I'm actually surprised by how similar the two are word for word.
I think the compensation is still too low. Sony, MS, BigN should pay more in those cases. Deceiving is wrong and law should not allow big companies getting away with this. But it must really hurt to teach them a lesson.
