Kotaku - Before I played Final Fantasy VII, I didn’t think it was going to be very good. I don’t remember how I was introduced to the game—maybe it was a store ad, or a magazine, or that wild 1997 TV commercial—but I do remember hating it.
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?
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.

Rise of the ronin sold twice as much as Dragons Dogma 2 this week...but no articles about that. It's only news if a PS exclusive is being outsold.
Playing this game on PS4 is my favorite option. I get to play with analog control, turn off random encounters, speed up moments that slog, turn on god mode for frustrating battle situations, and earn Trophies throughout the whole experience.
That's the main thing I hope FFVIIR keeps is it's quirkyness. We need all of the scenes, no matter how questionable for modern culture.
I re-played it last year. It amazed me how many mini games there are in it. I still consider it to be the best FF game.
FF6 & FF4 are the pinnacle of the franchise IMO, haven't played 9 yet though.
