Final Fantasy 7 on PS4 is a Giant Middle Finger to Fans

"Let’s not kid ourselves here, Square Enix knew what we were all thinking. Final Fantasy 7 on PS4 = the remake everyone wanted. In fact, recently Kotaku posted an article citing that it’s the game everyone wants remade. So what does Square decide to do? Reveal the game as another port. Oh, wait it’s the PC port so it’ll have annoying midi tracks, but that’s cool, right?! No it isn’t, Square. No it isn’t. "

I have never been so happy then sad within 1 minute in my life! I hope we at least get trophy support I guess:-/

RashBandicoot3582d ago

It's times like these I feel Square Enix is owned by Sephiroth and is trying to make us all feel "the ultimate despair".

vishmarx3582d ago

the saddest part is i might even buy this.

the keynote was excellent.so many damn games
those hoping for ff7 remake are idiots, why would SE make something like that to slaughter xv.

freshslicepizza3582d ago

talk about a money grab for basically doing nothing. i would buy a hd remaster version as im sure so would many others.

Inception3582d ago

Correction:
Sephiroth as CEO and Monokuma as his right hand

No wonder SE gave a lot of super hyper ultimate despair to their fans this past years >.<

breakpad3582d ago

SquareCrapness lost it completely .they began with FFXIII and now troll with FFVII ..i wish a remake of FFVII never be made from the current SquareCrap...guys just sell the IP to Sony they ll handle it better

UltraNova3581d ago

God damn it Square you'll never learn...I'm beyond disappointed. I think its time for me to show you the middle finger.

Whoever is in charge at Square Enix DOES NOT "get it".

They are so beyond out of touch it's not even worth joking about anymore.

Athonline3581d ago

I think they are scared. If they do an HD remake that doesn't work, they will be in deep trouble.

Re-releasing the game still will get them a descent low-risk income and they keep the remake playing card. If they ever get desperate for a quick surge money, then they can do an HD-remake and call it a day.

FF VII remake and Half-Life 3 are both highly wanted and hyped games making any development/release decision harder as they know people will be more judgmental.

HaMM4R3581d ago

They could just give it the halo treatment, eg keep the original game 100% the same and then just replace all the assets then there is no chance of that. God forbid though developers actually invest money and time into their titles.

lipton1013582d ago

I'd rather never hear about it again vs being teased with this bs.

blackblades3581d ago

I was like o snap new jrpg, then was like holy crap FFVII remake, then the remaster was announce and I was like WTH.

Eyeco3581d ago

Honestly I'm astonsihsed, it was a grand masterpiece in the art of modern trolling, perfection, god-tier, glorious It will be remembered for years to come semper fi Square Enix I applaud you.

Its not a middle finger.

More of a "we honestly think you're that stupid" kind of thing.

jambola3581d ago

Yeah, because when people hear "final fantasy 7 is coming to ps4, that's the first thing that people think of, a port,
like if naughty dog came out tomorrow saying crash bandicoot was coming to ps4, all the smart people would think of the ps1 games coming to it.

GameDev13582d ago

I laughed tbh

trolled everyone

maniacmayhem3582d ago

Talk about ruining the excitement...like that guy who throws up in the middle of the dance floor while the jam is on.

llxKonanxll3582d ago (Edited 3582d ago )

I think it's hilarious. We asked for Final Fantasy VII on the Ps4.. And Square Enix gives us Final Fantasy VII on the PS4. Damn Square.

KwietStorm_BLM3582d ago

We've been asking for a FFVII remake since they first showed that tech demo before PS3 even came out. Nobody asked for the PC FFVII on PS4.

This Guy Rebuilt The Original Final Fantasy 7 In LittleBigPlanet 2, And It's Awesome

Nearly 27 years after the original game's release, Final Fantasy 7 superfan Jamie Colliver has finished his magnum opus: A shot-for-shot remake of the original PlayStation 1 game, created entirely via LittleBigPlanet 2. Colliver's remake reimagines the original game as a platformer, with every scene, every location, every line of dialogue, and every song from the game's OST painstakingly implemented .

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

fr0sty49d ago

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

solideagle49d 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

gleepot49d ago

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

No mention of fixing the audio issues the dialogue audio is too low this has been reported many times on social media the volume has to be turned up and music has to be lowered to hear the characters properly :(

Babadook7112d ago

I have a question as someone who is considering buying the game soon. Is this a fixable issue? Can you just lower the volume for music and sound effects and keep dialog at default?

shadowT112d ago (Edited 112d ago )

yes, it is no issue at all. Just go into settings. Do you have already played the first Remake or the OG?

M3talDiamond112d ago

There are a few youtube videos and reddit tips with some tips on fixing the sound issues but sadly they didnt work for me

M3talDiamond112d ago (Edited 112d ago )

@Babadook7 There are a few videos on youtube with tips on how to fix the dialogue audio this but sadly they didnt work for me. There is an option to lower the music and sfx and keep the dialogue audio at 10 but you have to keep the volume up high (well for my TV I do) but when you are in battles and cutscenes the audio is higher so you have to adjust the audio again.
@shadowT The audio issues doesnt affect everyone there are some people on reddit complaining about the audio and there are other people saying they dont have any issues at all. I think it depends on the TV I have a Samsung QLED 4K and FF7 Rebirth is the only game I have audio issues with.

Babadook7112d ago (Edited 112d ago )

Thanks for the answers all.

@Shadow yeah I have the Remake and finished it and loved it (loved the OG also back in the day). My understanding is this is even better than Remake.

Yes Tonberry is terrifying..

MeteorPanda144d ago

The way it was handled was so dumb. One shots in melee...your teammates are to ostupid to get away from its attack. So you most often end up alone in a certain fight.

Hofstaderman143d ago

Two words, one accessory....Safety Bit

MeteorPanda143d ago

Needing an accessory to keep a.i from dying and only one of them isnt great.
