Thread: FFVII in Video Game Hall of Fame

    Default FFVII in Video Game Hall of Fame

    https://www.engadget.com/2018/05/03/...l-fantasy-vii/

    Of course FFVII is probably the most revolutionary JRPG of all time so it totally deserves to be there. It's a pretty good game as well of course.

    Sidenote but Tomb Raider is another great choice.

    It absolutely deserves this place.

    Definitely agree FF7 deserves it, not sure about Tomb Raider though, I probably would have chosen MGS instead.

    Surprised it wasn't already in there, considering Call of Duty, Dance Dance Revolution and Half-Life were already in it.

    agreed, FF VII and TR belong there... Spacewar should have been a year one inductee considering it's place in gaming history...

    The Strong museum has announced this year's inductees to the World Video Game Hall of Fame -- Spacewar!, John Madden Football, Tomb Raider and Final Fantasy VII. They were selected from 12 finalists that also included Asteroids, Call of Duty, Dance Dance Revolution, Half-Life, King's Quest, Metroid, Minecraft and Ms. Pac-Man.
    Well those were finalists, but I would like to see Half-Life get in there for sure.

    Ah right. I missed that paragraph.

    It's a rolling programme, I'm sure we'll see metroid and half life enter some day.

    Huh. Why not ? Because of it's low sales when it originally came out ?
