Square Enix's BIG Announcement
OMFG, I'm so excited!
Quote:
March 30, 2008 - Square Enix announced today what fans have wanted and expected since Square Enix premiered their PS3 tech demo of Final Fantasy VII back in 2005. A remake of the most popular RPG to ever be made is officially in the works, and is due for a November 2009 release.
Shocked by the fan response of their tech demo, Square Enix executives have made mention many a time over the past couple of years that no plans for a remake of Final Fantasy VII had even been considered when they made the tech demo, and they were shocked that people had jumped to such conclusions given their previous tech demos for new gaming technologies involving older Final Fantasy titles.
Square Enix Senior Vice President, Michihiro Sasaki, commented, "The response was unexpected by everyone at the company. There was nothing like it when we premiered our Final Fantasy VIII tech demo of the PS2, and even the expectations built from our Final Fantasy VI tech demo of the Nintendo 64 were that the next installment would be on that system, which it wasn't. A remake had never even been thought of before when it came to our tech demos, but the response of fans worldwide forced us to reconsider."
Square Enix admits to have been working on the remake since August of 2007, and that it has been made easier for them as they are using the same graphics engine they are using for the two PS3 Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy XIII titles. This brought up the question of a different battle system, but when asked about it, Square Enix refused to comment further saying, "We'll be releasing more information at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo."

How credible is this? xD You never know. I'm hoping it's true but I can't say I'd be surprised if someone ... well, lied.

...April Fool's? xD I just a bit of research on google on this and got to that conclusion.
Meh, but who knows, right? I know I'm certainly looking forward to a remake.

I'm thinking along the same lines because I can't seem to find an article even remotely similar to this one.

Well I got this from PSX Extreme.
Quote:
FFXIII Playable Demo, FFVII PS3 Remake CONFIRMED
Update: Most of you have probably figured it out by now, but of course, we have to toss it out there-
APRIL FOOL'S!
We apologize for getting your hopes up, but it's all in good fun. And remember, nobody would want this to be true more than your friends at PSXE...we just wanted to see what it looks like in print. We may never be able to write a valid story containing these exact words - as sad as that is - so we took advantage. Heh...forgive us?
Original Story:
If you're a Square-Enix fan, you're well aware of their penchant for including high-profile demos for future titles in current retail releases. For example, you will recall the playable Final Fantasy XII demo we found in Dragon Quest VIII. Therefore, we figured it would only make sense to see something similar with The Last Remnant, S-E's first next-gen offering that should be available later this year. So we started digging...but we didn't expect to find this.
According to a reliable source at SCEJ, Square-Enix has something big planned for The Last Remnant's release. Or rather, they have two "something bigs" planned. First up: they will be including a 22-minute playable demo of Final Fantasy XIII with the PS3 version of The Last Remnant. This demo lets us play through a section of FFXIII that doesn't occur until a good 20 hours into the game, which leads us to believe the developers are progressing nicely. Heck, they might even be ahead of schedule. Now, you may figure that this is the biggest detail we uncovered, but it's not. Oh, it's really, really not.
Not long ago, Eat Sleep Play confirmed what so many fans have been waiting for, and that's a Twisted Metal project for the PlayStation 3. They did this by embedding a simple code - easily cracked - during the end credits of the PSP's Twisted Metal: Head-On. Well, it seems Square-Enix is taking a page from their book because at some point during The Last Remnant (we don't know exactly when), we will get undisputed confirmation that the long-awaited and oft-speculated-upon Final Fantasy VII remake for the PS3 will arrive in 2009! Square-Enix just got finished saying that the FFVII Compilation isn't complete, and clearly, this is the final title. It's exactly what we've been waiting for, too! Wooo!

It was posted yesterday though. I figured that other sites probably did the same prank.
