I'm hyped
But what happened to the FFVII port that was supposed to be coming to PS4

nobody will care about that now anyway
it's amazing that they actually cared about their audience, who does that in videogames nowadays?
I've been praying everyday to president shinra for this.
Yes, I am mostly afraid of them making this into an action RPG. I personally still love turn based combat. The materia system was great too.
I don't know how I would feel if they added that lost bit about aeris coming back.
AHHHHH so much can go wrong!!!

me since the remake probably won't be out until 2017
dp the port is arguably the worst version. you've heard the midi ost, right?

actually, VII-2 is ADvent Childeren. Dirge is technically VII-3

you've heard the original ost right?
it's really kind of a mixed bag. some tracks sound noticeably worse, while a few actually sound a bit better. most sound about the same though, so it's not a big deal
confirmed: turn-based gameplay is dead
it lives on in my heart >.<
and through digital re-releases goowan
honestly, I kinda figured they would take a Kingdom Hearts approach to the new battle system, and honestly, it looks pretty cool.
Like, I would've loved if they kept a turn-based approach, but I'm fine with this for now.

I want this. apparently out today.
wanna play through it again, and trophies would add incentive to do so
The battle system looks good from what they showed
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=QLYyWAqTTAo[/youtube]
it looks like ffxv
which i don't mind at all
looks soulless
you get a pretty decent theme with the ff7 port on ps4
and it's also only ~$10 right now instead of its normal 15.99
Also good thing that while its apparently the pc version, we didn't get that versions lower quality music
and the reworked script is very nice too

Is the setting of FF7 based on the US? I noticed a distinctly American speed limit sign in that trailer.

it's more an amalgamation of eastern and western design motifs to form nondescript future anime world

RIP hype train, there were no survivors
[spoiler]i really hope this means they are going to expand the remake into other FF7 areas like Crisis Core or maybe even a game adaptation of Advent Children (since the tech exists now to do a graphically similar game experience); BUT IT'S SQUARE SO WHO AM I KIDDING THEY ARE JUST GONNA GUT THIS GAME INTO MULTIPLE PARTS Reichdood;[/spoiler]
how exactly does the newly released ps4 version of ff7 compare to the straight ps1 port i purchased on psn a year ago
i hear it's possible to turn off random encounters and speed up battles (ie make grinding slightly less of a game-ruining chore) in the new version, and both of these features would help to alleviate some of my concerns about this game
but i already paid for the ps1 version smithicide;

those are true, but also the script is re-worked so it doesn't have all those typos and stuff.
and trophies
i'm not really concerned about trophies but those quality of life enhancements are significant
Significant enough to warrant spending a whole $10 on another copy of a game I already own, however, I'm not so sure. awdood;
Ugh. Even backwards Nintendo gives you the option to """upgrade""" Wii Virtual Console games to Wii U at a discount. smithicide;

if they couldn't remake this game because "it's too significant" to release on one go, then some might say they shouldn't have attempted this in the first place.
I suppose if they can even come close to doing this right, then we'll see.
EDIT: here's a thought....
what if each part equals each disc of the original release? >.<
that means the last part better only cost like $5
i'm pretty sure they just want an excuse to charge $100 for a game that would otherwise be $60

Surely, if their excuse for splitting the game is that it's too big to fit on one Blu-ray, they should be planning to release each episode physically on its own Blu-ray (and will never release "FF7 remake collection" on one regular Blu-ray), right?
...right? >_<'
I would be totally ok with a small dip into the past and have them release this game on multiple blurays if that was the case.
and it would be a funny callback to the ps1 game.
That said, if the game really is too big for all episodes to be on one Blu-ray, a complete collection disc might be a good use of the new UHD-BD disc format if they really do end up making a compatible PS4 (or PS5?).

Nah, rather than a callback, that is more like a development problem and/or pricing scheme. This is what a callback to a multi-disc PS1 game is like:
Quote from: OtaconWe're on a PS3 system! It's a Blu-ray Disc. Dual-layered too - no need to swap discs.
there's no fucking way it's larger than a blu ray disc, if it is they're doing something horribly wrong lol
it's greed ya'll

exactly. and BD's are starting to reach 200gb.
even now, i think they can be 100gb so if you're game is bigger than that, you need to either
a) learn to compress better or
b) scale the ambition down

200GB? Since when? Even BDXL is only like 128GB and that's an incompatible format with other Blu-ray readers.
Current PS4 models can't handle BDXL discs, only classic blu-ray discs at up to the dual-layer 50GB. Sony's expressed interest in making a PS4 model that supports UHD BD-Video which by extension means supporting BDXL discs, but not necessarily for games.
