REMAKE!!!!!!!

[Killak]

Hey, I'm back. Some of you would have known me as Kilak, and I have decided to check out the Forums.

Anyway, I am writing on a topic that I'm sure many FF fans find very important. An FFVII remake for the PS2.
If you feel strongly about this, I implore you to go around your area, and get everyone to sign a petition, and then send it to me. Only one petition per area, if member live near each other, as we don't want repitition signatures. I'm sure that with such a flow of approval from across the Globe, Square enix must see the advantage to a remake of this classic!

If you make a petition, please send it to:

12 Dellway
Ealing
London W13 8JH
United Kindom (Or Great Britain)

I really hope that all eoff members will seriously consider this, and help out my efforts.
Thanks

Asanohoshe Kilak

PS:

If Kawai Ryukishi is here, please reply, cos I haven't spoken to ya for 2 years, and I need to be brought up to speed with the forum news.

I agree. Awesome game, really needs a rebirth on a more powerful platform.

If I find the time I will add my name to any petition you care to make... I love FF7 and I've been wanting to see a remake (hell, even a MOVIE!) for a long time.

A long shot I know but any chance this could be stickied somewhere more appropriate?

[Killak]

They are making a movie, but not a remake.

The Petitions should be in your area, as internet petitions don't work. I just need as many different signatures, and then I can group them into country order, and mail em to Square Enix.

I ain't got the power to sticky

[RSL]

I'm back threads aren't allowed. I'm moving this to the FFVII forum.

[Killak]

Sorry, It wasn't meant to be an "I'm back" thread, but I thought I would put it where most people would see it.

Square rarely listens to petitions. I've only seen them do it once and it was the petition to translate Xenogears and give it a US release. I've seen petitions since 1996 to translate FF3, and none have worked. Even petitions to translate FF2 didn't work. What got square to translate that game was the Japanese release of the PS1 version. Petitioning Square to remake a game that they have no desire to remake is less likely. You'd have more luck trying to get them to translate/release the FOMA version of FF1.

sorry to use you as the demo guy, killak, but I got a thread closed because I bleeped out the f-word in its contents. The fair treatment around here - you get to show it off in the title! (Not that it bothers me)

(When I moved the thread, I edited that portion out of the title. From now on, if you have a problem with the contents of a thread, use the warn function or PM a staff member. -------RSL)

Anyway, I would sign that petition. But why ps2 when xbox can just own them rights and then we've got it on the most advanced platform there currently is! What's that? They can't own everything? Tell that to Bill Gates.

In any case the movie looks f.... uh, darn cool. Advent children is the sh... er, stuff!

But seriously. I haven't slept in 35 hours. And Cloud and Sephiroth are the two greatest characters ever. I want them back.

Why would anyone need a remake when you can still play the original game? FFX and the PS2 has spoiled you lot.

If anyone can come up with a solid and feasible reason for Square to remake FF7, they *might* listen to you. But considering that any Joe Shmoe can go to the local video game store, buy a copy of FF7 (Greatest Hits, I might add) and pop it in his PSX, or even his PS2 - I don't see any reason for Square to revamp this game.

[EternalBahamut]

I could see a ff7-2 or something like that, a spin-off but I'm with doc france. Why would I spend 100 on a next version of the same game when I could get the original new for 19.99 or probably less now. Plus the old school is cooler, like watching astro boy

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

While I wouldn't mind a remade version, I received a Playstation 2 last Christmas and was able, for the first time in my life, to play all the great Final Fantasies I missed due to Gamecubes suckiness. I managed to get a hold of FFVII AFTER I bought FFX, which meant that the character graphics just irritate me. Especially now that I've been playing Xenosaga. The background and such is beautiful though. To be honest though, I don't really think there is a point.

[Mo-Nercy]

No petition for you~!

I'm satisfied with FFVII as it is. I'm not gonna waste my money in buying the exact same game with better graphics.

[TheAbominatrix]

Square has already stated that they wont remake any game that can still be played on the current console. PS games can be played on PS2, there wont be a remake of VII. Not yet at least.

[DocFrance]

Maybe in ten to twenty years, if Square is even still around, they might.

[BG-57]

I think it's somewhat unfair to penalize a game because its graphics are outdated. Sooner or later every game will have outdated graphics. Heck, there was a time when Pong was state of the art! While I like eye candy as much as the next person, I think storyline and the combat system add more to replay value.

That being said, I would buy a new version of FFVII if they put out a new version of the story.

[Mystery]

i highly doubt they would make a remix to FFVII and i wouldn't buy it...unless it has Sephy in it, honestly i think the graphics would have to change, and the plot, maybe make sephiroth a play-able character...for a longer period of the game, but still keep him evil because thats one of the many things that make him the best character. and they should add more characters, and explain more things, like whats happening, i didn't really understand much of anything, and everytime i get to the end of my game, i have to reboot my comp *from scratch* and i just keep getting stuck on the two same points because for some reason my characters are never as strong as they should be. but yeah, if its possible, i think they should remake it, they've got more talent in it now that they have X and XI...altho' i haven't got.. X-2 or XI yet.
They could make it incredible. so in otherwords, i hope they do.
