Every year, either at E3 or the Tokyo Game Show, RPGs fans wait to hear about news of a Final Fantasy VII remake. It seems like we've been asking about it for longer than the PlayStation 3's been around. And yet, every single year, Square Enix fails to deliver.

Well Nintendo and Squaresoft is where he started. I totally understand why he doesn't want to do FF now. If so I'm happy for either a remaster of Last Story or a new entry/spiritual successor. Loved the battle system of Last Story.
Wish my parents bought me a NES as a kid I would have played the first FF game. But I was lucky to have a SNES I played a bit of FF6 and just went to Chrono Trigger. When the FF collection releases I-VI Collection Anniversary drops I will take my time to play each Final Fantasy.
I mean… this is kinda obvious. The original final fantasy and its early sequels were on…
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 .
Square Enix announced its financial results for the three-month period which started on April 1 and ended on June 30, 2024.
They need more exclusives. That's the smart thing to do for 3rd party developers. /S
Here are some concerns regarding FF 7 Rebirth:
1) Completion rate of Part 1: Can Square Enix expect those who haven't finished Part 1 to purchase Part 2 at $70?
2) Requirement of a PS5: If someone enjoyed Part 1 on PS4, is there a significant advantage in purchasing a PS5 for the game, especially when PS4 continues to release new games?
3) Exclusivity issues.
Final thoughts on FF7: Cherish and relish Part 3, as it's likely the last time Square Enix will undertake such a project. Anticipate that future remakes will be scaled down or merely remastered.
Sales are down because pixel remaster sold 2+million and FF16 sold 3 million+ during the same time period last year and i don't think any big(or any?) square enix game released from april to june 30th of this year.
I am not sure why some sources put this in a negative light. Square had no major releases this quarter so it makes sense the sales would be less. What's good is than they found a way to lower their expenses to increase their profits given that no one was laid off.
what remake? isn't it suppose to be a remaster of x in hd?
what a great f**k up...
Remake? It's not a complete remake, it's just like any other HD remake out there like MGS, Ico/SotC, GoW 1&2 etc.
@Kain81
Because it's the 10th anniversary of FFX? Plus, they only just announced it. Who knows? Maybe it's also coming to Xbox, or it contains all the FF on PS2. Or it maybe is a complete remake. We just have to wait to find out.
"Square Enix Doesn't Really Care About FFVII Fans"
Compilation of Final Fantasy VII? XD
