1UP: More Evidence That A FFVII Remake is en Route to The PS3

If you haven't read 1UP's Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core interview yet, you should. A very interesting response came to one of 1UP's questions, which alludes to a possible remake of Final Fantasy VII, since no other games have been announced, even though all of the original 'Compilation of Final Fantasy VII' titles announced years back (Dirge of Cerberus, Advent Children, Before Crisis) have now come out. The quote in question goes as follows.

1UP: Does Crisis Core mark the finale for the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII series?

Hajime Tabata: No, it does not. The Compilation's finale will take some other form.

i think the remake is inevitable at this point. Don't think a remake has been as requested ever. Sony would be more than happy to put money into it if it means increased sales for them so i am sure square enix is more than considering

1.3 - It must be coming
If you watch the ending to Crisis Core either its a prelude to wats coming or Square are tormeting us

Note this is not the Tech Demo shown at E3 a few years back, its almost the same but is longer cos it shows Cloud riding the train and saying to himself "I'm Cloud. SOLDIER, First Class" then it says "To be continued in Final Fantasy VII". But if it is coming it will be at least 2-3 years before we see it, Square always leave space between releases and as you all know Final Fantasy XIII is due later this year or early next year hopefully.

@Marlec

They were being literal. Crisis Core was the prelude to FF7. In other words thats how the storyline goes. But yeah nonetheless, I also believe that a ff7 remake will be made.

i know wat you mean that it could mean now go play FFVII on PS1 to continue story but if you dont have a copy then expect to pay 100s of bucks for a new one, Square would never endorse that, but to be more precise at the end it says TO BE continued, to me TO BE means something thats gonna happen in the future so we will see.

1.8 - i hope they remake it and not at the same time
as much as i would like to see this game remade for the ps3...i so would pick up and play anyways...but i think they shouldn't ruin one of the most popular Final Fantasy Games by remaking it...next thing we know Final Fantasy 1 will be remade for ps3 and so forth...

I'm still kicking myself for ebay'ing my copy so many years ago. Especially since my 60gb PS3 still plays those PS1 games!

if this game comes out, and comes out right, its instant death for everyone.

Exactly, if it "comes out right" then we'll be fine, odds of that are slim to none

it's inevitable. Square knows how much $ they would rake in just from old fans.. then you add in the new fans. it'll be crazy.

but if XIII and VII released the same day.. i'd get...
BOTH :P

hmm, you make an interesting point. You know what will be really cool ? If S-E added FVII remake on the FXII:Versus disc as a single player game since versus is mostly a multiplayer game from what I have heard.

@dec

unlikely

it's all about revenue and this would be a bad business decision

but who cares? buying them seperatley is good enough for me

Yeah man you right. Is S-E, they'd rather release that on a separate disc just to rake in more Moniessssssssssss. But, I'd buy it still.

damn, that's good news

we definitley won't be starved for FF goodness in 09

i agree with meepmoopmeep- why not? this would rake in a huge amount of revenue so there's no reason NOT to do it

whatever other projects Square have planned wouldn't be able to get the same amount of publicity and hype

yeah, we also have to look at Squares track record of rehashing the old games. and you will notice that they have REMADE the best FF games so far and we all know VII is THE pride and joy baby of Square

Okay as much as I would like to see a remake (in the traditional turn based format) that comment means absolutely nothing. All it is saying is that this will not be the last spin off.
