 : 89 th | | | PS3 Final Fantasy VII *RUMOR* Talk is beginning to speed up about this, figured id post news and rumors as it becomes available News September 6, 2007
new news coming out speaking of a FFVII remake...
still no plans, but it sounds like it all depends on how quickly they finish the new FF games... Square Enix talks FFVII remake; new PS3 project :: PlayStation Universe (PSU) Quote:
Imaizumi said that the remake of FFVII is a question of timing, mentioning that Kitase, Nomura and Tabata are all busy with the Final Fantasy XIII series. He added that a new game of some form would be announced at the Tokyo Game Show. It's not certain if this new game is in the FFXIII series or a completely new title from Kitase, Nomura and Tabata--but PlayStation 3 owners should be very excited.
No--this isn't Kingdom Hearts III, which was already touted to be unveiled for the PlayStation 3 console at TGS.
Imaizumi confirmed again that there is currently no plans for a FFVII remake but noted that this decision could take place very quickly, and mentioned how the decision to make Crisis Core took only two days. So, have no fret PS3 owners!
| June 4, 2007 IGN Quote: FFVII Not Being Remade -- Nomura
Just in case you were hoping for a surprise TGS showing once again.
by IGN Staff
June 4, 2007 - A Square Enix power player has issued the most direct denial yet of a Final Fantasy VII remake. Speaking with Japan's monthly Dorimaga gaming publication, character designer Tetsuya Nomura said, "It appears that there are often overseas rumors like 'Are you currently developing a VII remake?' My apologies, but we're absolutely not making [such a game]."
But, as usual, all isn't necessarily lost. Yoshinori Kitase, overall director of the FFVII series, followed up with, "However, when we ask the staff who are making FFXIII why they entered the company, there are many people who say, 'I'm an FFVII fan, I also want to do a remake.'" To this, Nomura added, "We of course know ourselves what the fans want so we'd like to continue thinking up a variety of things. As long as there are people who want to make it and people who are waiting for it, we don't want to proclaim 'the end.'"

in the french RPG magasine "Gameplay RPG" that is: Quote: |
"LE CHOC! A quelques heures du bouclage, voilà que tombe entre mes mains un communiqué officiel de SE indiquant le "remake du tres apprécié FF VII sur Ps3, uniquement". Alors que Sony se faisait du mauvais sang avec toutes ces exclusivités qui lui passent sous le nez, voila qu'une annonce vient flatter son catalogue. SE n'en finit pas de surprendre puisque, rappellons-le, depuis la demo technologique de FF VII pour annopncer l'arrivée de la PS3, rien n'avait filtré. (...) Une démo devrait etre présentée à la prochaine SquareEnix Party."
| Basically, it says that they were holding the official SE communique stating the announcement of a FFVII's remake for the PS3 exclusively. May 28, 2007 Quote: |
"THE SHOCK! At a few hours of looping, here are that fall between my hands an official official statement from SE indicating the "remake from very appreciated FF VII on Ps3, only". Whereas Sony was made bad blood with all these exclusivenesses which pass to him under the nose, veiled that an advertisement comes to flatter its catalogue. SE does not finish any surprising since, rappellons it, since the technological demo of FF VII for annopncer the arrival of the PS3, nothing had not filtered (...) a demonstration should be presented at next SquareEnix Party."
| Quote: |
yeah but this time around, it's not just some random folk spreading some rumours but an highly respected magazine specialized in RPGs.
| May 23, 2006 Quote: |
"Last year, Square Enix teased everyone with what was called the "FFVII PS3 demo," the article states. "Well, what do you know? This test case was really a sneak peek at a next-gen revival of the PS1 role-playing hit."
| Quote:
"Since the Final Fantasy VII tech demo at E3 2005, there have been a lot of rumors about the presentation hinting at an actual remake. While the June 2006 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly confirms the remake for release in 2007, Square Enix has never stated this.
We have however confirmed that development has begun for Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy Versus XIII on PlayStation 3. These titles are part of the Fabula Nova Crystallis Project which also includes a mobile game titled FINAL FANTASY Agito XIII."

| Lol duke knows that line all too well.
I've never been a big fan of the Final Fantasy series, was interested in Sony's project Legend of Dragoon, a much better game IMO, that deserved a sequel, but will never get one

| | | Legend of Dragoon better than FFVII? BLASPHEMY!
i'll admit it was a solid game, and probably did deserve a sequel, but its nowhere near the calibur of VII imo.
