Lol, EDGE always trying to be so "edgy", FFVII:R succeeds not only as a remake but also as a stand alone game, almost finishing my hard difficulty playthrough for my platinum run I'm actually surprised by the amount of content, the easy to pickup but hard to master very deep gameplay mechanics (once you start playing around with builds + combos you'll be amazed by what you can do) and the ways the expanded the first part of this story.

Maybe they have a different opinion.

RpgSama1469d ago

They surely have a different opinion about a lot and I mean a lot of games.

They also gave Nioh 2 low score. Xcom is getting lower score by everyone though. These opinions sure screw meta and then sales and then bonuses

coolbeans1469d ago

Why should Metacritic-based bonuses have anything to do with critics? Blame publishers for putting excessive stock in them in their contracts.

Ori and the will of the wisps a 7? Joke.

Si-Fly1469d ago

Not really, I fell off that hat hard yet I adored the first game.

Ausbo1469d ago

It’s better than the first game in every way. Combat is significantly improved, it’s gorgeous and the story is there too

Final Fantasy Head Talks About The Difficulties of Remaking Final Fantasy 6

"There are many FF6 fans inside the company, and they often ask me 'When are we making 6?'"

shinoff2183337d ago

Come on already square always on about this stuff. Half the game is done the story and all is already there , I imagine they'd take a couple things out. I can't imagine these days they'd leave the dog fighting in. Not that the player bet on it or anything but it was there

CrimsonWing69337d ago

I think because it’s easier to make grand games in pixel art rather than model everything in 3D as well as the amount of espers, spells, cutscenes, animations and whatnot it’d be a huge task to remake.

FinalFantasyFanatic336d ago

I'd prefer a HD-2D remake, but we're not getting that, I probably wouldn't want a remake like FF7R.

Flawlessmic337d ago

Give me ff9 and 10 remakes first and I'll be over the moon!

Those are my 2 personal favourites, although at this rate ff16 is quickly going to eclipse them both, which I mean I knew 16 was going to be good, but game of the gen so far and fav ff ever at this rate I wasn't expecting that.

Just love to see ff back in the spot light big time and it will only continue with ff 7 rebirth

shinoff2183337d ago

10 still don't look bad , I feel that could wait but word is 2026ish for ff10 remake

Flawlessmic337d ago

it doesnt look bad at all and is still suer playable, but more ffx is always a good thing for me, i go through and play it atleast once every 2 years hahaha

FinalFantasyFanatic336d ago

FFX could just use a remaster update with higher res textures and stuff, a remake on that game would be a waste.

on_line_forever337d ago

What about vagrant story & parasite eve ?

jznrpg337d ago

Yes and Yes . Vagrant Story first though for me

FinalFantasyFanatic336d ago

DO IT! They've been re-releasing a lot of their old games though, so maybe we can get a remaster or remake of those in the future.

Switch is home to several incredible beat ’em ups, and we wanted to highlight newer games that exemplify both the immense quality and variety of the classic genre. For those that may be intimated by the genre’s old-school labeling, we think any of these games would be a perfect place to begin your beat ’em up journey.

SoR4 is incredible. Its the deepest, most content rich beat-em-up i have ever played. And they seem to still be supporting it.

Agent75382d ago

So many of these games out there, most I never got to play. At the time, I remember Final Fight on the Mega CD which had an extra level or something, but I played the arcade version on CAPCOM Collection on the PS2 years go. Also Final Fight 2 on the Super NES, but it didn't hold up to the first game. Played many games on the C64 such as Renegade, Target Renegade and one of the Double Dragon games, but can't remember which one. But back then, arcade games didn't hold up well on those computers, including the Spectrum and Amstrad CPC464. Playing these games at home, it all kicked off with the Mega Drive and Super NES. For me, it was Streets of Rage and Golden Axe that finally made 2D beat 'em up genre worth playing. Two Crude Dudes also brings back memories and I had the Genesis version. But a lot of 2D beat 'em ups never made it out of the arcades and after playing CAPCOM Fighting Collection and CAPCOM Belt Action of the Switch, hoping there's more of this in the future. Anything 2D fighting was great back then. Alien Storm and ESWAT on the Mega Drive also get a mention.
