Rumor: Final Fantasy VII is confirmed it's coming for the PS3 Network

so yeah, there's been alot of full blown remakes, although to my knowledge they have never made one with the top quality graphics of the timel. I would love to see that, especially with FFII... I think we had a thread about this...

Dragon Quest V was remade for the PS2 a while back. It wasn't exactly pushing the system to it's limits though. Similarly, Dragon Quest IV was remade for the PSX when the PSX hadn't quite seen then end of its days either (although it was getting damn close). That didn't exactly have the best graphics of the generation either but it looked somewhat better then the Dragon Quest VII (not that that would have been particularly hard).

yeah i knew it was a couple of them for certain ps consoles, not sure which ones. I might have to check them out actually.

my point was they don't really remake them they just gave them a minor facelift if you will and not up to the current standards of the time in which thay were re-released, they could have remade FF I- VI completely for PSone quality (or PS2 depending on when they were re-released) but instead they mearly ported them with a few cosmetic changes... i read somewhere (don't remember where, but i linked to the article from this board) that Star Ocean I&II were just gonna be ports with cleaned up graffics and added new cutscenes, though i will admit i know nothing about FFIII since i don't have an NDS and have never seen the original, but all the handheld re-releases and PSone re-releases were not remakes up to the standards of the current home console technology when they were re-released (which is what the majority want for VII, a fullblown console remake), so i can see a cleaned up re-release of FFVII to a handheld (and PS3Net), as per S-E's track record but a true 100% remake from the ground up i feel may just be a pipedream...

Umm, no - S-E has already said there is NO remake in production right now & while Nomura said he'd like to remake it someday, he also said he's too busy w/ Fabula Nova Crystalis(FF13, FFv13, FF13A) not to mention 3 new Kingdom Hearts games as well - I doubt he has time to take a break from 6 games to work on a FFVII remake

I think i would be a massive hit on the play station 3 network as to the fact tht many people who have 40g and dont have a ps2 or ps1 could not play it like me and i sure as hell kno i would get it,but i agree tht S-E have FAR too many projects on the now to even consider remaking FF7 mabi in a decade yes, but now?no

I really can't believe 1up still haven't taken this down, despite the constant denial from square that it's happening any time soon, but mostly because this pops up with every ff-related article/feature they have.

the piano medley they have on that link is pretty good, though.

I am surprised that a reputable video game news website like 1up has information in its database for a fictional title. What news article spawned a necessity for an entry in its database, I wonder?

I propose that an IQ test be placed on the FF7 forum. Before you can post, you must take it. If your score is too low, you will not be able to view or post in this forum, but rather be sent to the "FF7 Special Ed Forum" instead. Posting any thread containing the word "remake" in the FF7 Special Ed Forum will result in automatic deletion after two minutes (long enough for the idiots to forget they made the post).

The 40GB PS3 model only lacks PS2 backwards compatibility, you can play your PSX games on every PS3 model ...

But I still agree that a PSN release (not remake) would be nice, I mean, it's not that easy to get a copy of FFVII for a reasonable price nowadays and then there's also the advantage of having it on the hard drive instead of using disks.
