Why haven't I seen this before? I've seen the PS3 tech demo trailer (which basically is this) but never this version.
If they changed it I'm sure no one will seek blood vengeance.
It's amusing that my favorite games also contain my favorite game openings. And this is one of them. If it is changed, I will not seek blood. And hopefully the game will be okay enough to justify it. But whatever it's changed to had better make sense, rather than a down-grade of some sort
Basically this. Though that original opening is pretty iconic, so I'd love to see it retained. Midgar from above, in all its HD, 3D glory, before you get to explore (hopefully) every nook and cranny for the first time.
Besides, I like the symbolism: the very first face you see in the game is Aerith's, illuminated by the glow of Mako. (SPOILER)And the very last image before the end credits is, again, her smile lit by the Lifestream itself. It bookends the story beautifully, and reminds you exactly whose story you've really been playing.
I think the odds of that opening being completely different are slim to non existent. If there is one thing Square loves, it's that opening, which they did the tech demo for and the secreting ending at the end of CC (as we all know). I believe they understand the magic created in those few seconds.
