"Final Fantasy Box Set (Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy IX)"

I read this and got excited...then I realized it was the name of the game guide. lol

Agent20093549d ago

Soon, man, soon FFVII/VIII/IX will find their place on PS4, in HD resolution. I can feel it in da air.

Capt-FuzzyPants3549d ago

I think you're the only one. Would be awesome if you are right though.

justlikeme3549d ago

It's already on pc. It's called Pcsx.

Transporter473549d ago

@justlikeme

How about buying the games on PSN or on steam?

DOMination-3549d ago

You can upscale all you want but honestly if the original source looks like ass, it will still look like ass in HD.

These games surely never get old.

Relientk773549d ago

Hmmm

I'm debating on getting this

pompombrum3549d ago

Still have my original copy of the FF9 game guide, missed FF7 and 8 ones though. Will probably pick this up just for collectors sake. Those were the golden years of JRPGs after all and some of my favourite gaming moments were from playing these games.

Goku7813549d ago

Me too, this is is the remasters they need to do, but act like they too scared.

Jonny5isalive3549d ago

This thing will be awesome if it is the original guides, those things were bad ass. I still have the one for FF7, it tattered to shit tho. It is an awesome guide that I used to just bring with me to read.

MRMagoo1233549d ago

I have the game guides for 7,8,9,10,10 part 2,12 and the kingdom hearts games and everyone of them is relevant to the game because they came out with out needing patches, the funny thing is my Diablo 3 guide I bought on launch was irrelevant a week after launch lol.

HarvesterOSarow3548d ago

The strategy guide for FFVII actually has a lot of errors in it. After beating the game like nine times and then finally checking out the guide, I couldn't believe how many errors I found.

Still a good feeling to have it on a shelf though.

audiophile1013549d ago

i used to have an original final fantasy 7 strategy guide. too bad my cousin ruined it or i could have made some good money if i decided to sell it

MRMagoo1233549d ago

They aren't worth much I don't think, I still have all mine and wouldn't sell any if them anyway including the games.

audiophile1013548d ago

yeah that doesn't surprise me. if i still had it and in the condition it was i know i would never sell it but it would be interesting if it would sell high.

im happy to be replaying it on steam right now

FFIX is the best game out of the three ps1 final fantasies

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

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?

ravens5219d ago

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.

MrNinosan19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5219d ago

... 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.

VIK212119d ago (Edited 19d ago )

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

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5218d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5218d ago

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.

Barlos19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

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.

Tapani19d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum19d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman19d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim19d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

I disagree Batman

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.
