Final Fantasy VII To See XBLA And PSN Release? - News

Lets just say Square-Enix recognizes how much meat there is on the carcass that is Final Fantasy VII. This title has received more direct sequels, prequels, side stories and general fansterbation than any other title in the series. I won't go into the quality of these titles, but they are out there. Now there is a rumor that says the Squeenix may be bringing the title to XBL and the PSN.

This all likely started as the result of the statement hinting at a "big FFVII-related announcement" that will come at next month's DKΣ3713 event. 'Inside sources' (I love how important that makes someone sound) stated that not only will the original be available through the Playstation store as a PS1 original download there will "definitely" be a remake or spin-off announced. I don't know where the XBLA release fits into this but that's the rumor anyway.

I wouldn't mind playing through this again. I don't remember how it ended. Does Cloud kill Sephiroth or just woo her? What about Jenova? She get some Zach-dupe lovin'?

It would actually be screwed up if they don't re-build the game from the bottom up. I'm not talking typos, either, and I don't care if they continue to use the same 12-polygon models for everyone, but the thing had better be widescreen, 1080p, with re-mastered backgrounds. Actually, some extra polys wouldn't hurt.

Dollars to doughnuts, though, Barret will exude less T-derived 'sploit. I mean blaxploit.

FF VII re-make on PS3... I would buy that immediately. PS1 original... not so much, as it would look like ass on my HDTV. Re-make... hell yes. But they'd better not screw up Cloud and Sephiroth or Barret, or Tiff or whatever her name was... Or any of the other characters. I don't care about the marshallow-cat thing, that can change to the Michelin man for all I care. Ah I would love a re-make of this game... Chocobo need to look cooler though.
