DQ7 screens unveiled

Attachment 38128

Almost a month ago we caught wind of a remake of the seventh installment in the Dragon Quest series. The game was being remade from the ground up, with a complete graphical overhaul. The first screens from this 3DS remake have been released, showcasing the player characters, enemies and locations. And, honestly, they look much better than the original Dragon Warrior VII.

The original Dragon Warrior VII compared with the 3DS Dragon Quest VII remake.

The 3DS isn't the most powerful machine on the market but it's the perfect platform for a remake of this Playstation classic. The Japanese release date is February 7 next year, but we're still awaiting confirmation on a Western release. Here's hoping!

Dragon Quest VII will continue Square Enix's focus on the StreetPass feature of the 3DS, offering fragmented tablets that can reveal hidden areas and treasure just by hanging out with other players.

I'd like to sink my teeth into this one again because I forgot how much I hated it.

One of these days I might have to get a 3DS...

.... Who the hell are these people? Where is Cloud?

Looks rather impressive. If I ever get a 3DS I'll have to pick this up.

3DS is looking more and more like the handheld to own.

You know, if the vita and psp just suddenly start killing their owners or something.

They look good. I MIGHT pick this one up. I poured a ton of hours into the original (still have the save file), but I have not completed it. I should get around to that sometime.

*continues not to play the game*

I put over 120 hours into this game and could not beat it....... I'll be buying this again.

I'm starting to see ads for this at places like the convenience store or the train station. I can't wait!!! :hyper:
