Trust me, you won't like it. They'll be one element in a remake that you'll feel that would ruin the game and you'll curse SE for being created. And I thought that people would learn from FFX that voice overs are not always a good thing.

If that's the case, which I highly doubt (remember they don't want to ruin their greatest achievment) then we'll all have to live with it. And you can have the satisfaction of saying "I told you so." k?

They might not have ruined their "greatest" achievement but they are damn well doing a bang up job shitting on its legacy at every opportunity they get by milking it for every penny.

Here's why we like remakes, but not extensions of series:

They are REMAKES, meaning, they are the game you loved with all the characters you love in the very story in which you fell in love with them. Making sequels out the wazoo just does not have a good effect, especially in a short amount of time.

Why? Because you know that with them making so many sequals, the people who made the original would be spread thin, and, thus, the sequels won't compare in the slightest.

The best-made remakes are those done by the majority of the original team, or a remake done by a team that slowly and meticulously toils to be truthful to the source material. Unfortunately, I doubt that would come from Square-Enix, and, normally, if it's bad in my opinion, I wouldn't buy an SE game, but I'd make an exception for a FFVII remake, just so I'd have my own copy finally.

Indeed, they are ruining it with all the spinoffs.

And well said LupineVoid. There's your answer Scrutator.

*sigh* Dude, that was a joke. (good lord, if jokes were passenger pigeons, then everyone here would be a punt gun.) Get it?

They're not making the movie into a game because, the movie is an extenstion of the game itself.

It's too late in the day for me to go on and on and on about this but look at it this way.

SE don't give a monkeys ass about you or your feelings or what your experiences with their games are, just the money that they can get for selling the games since it is a business. If they had any respect for you then AC, DoC etc would not have been created in the first place. They milked it and fanboys like yourself (not you specifically so don't dare start) bought them because it had FFVII on the cover and nothing else.

So for me a remake is exactly the same thing, FFVII doesn't need to be remade. It would be another cashin aimed at people like yourself who would quite gladly buy a remake that will be pretty much the same as the original because it had FFVII attached to it.

You're trying to relive the glory days when FFVII was the big thing, it's not anymore since there is far more available to us now than there was back then. But if you wish to have constant remakes of 10 year old + games then be my guest, I rather spend my money on something new rather than wasting it on an experience long past.

To me, it's not a waste, because I've never been able to complete the game, due to it being another person's game I was playing. If it was 'exactly the same' as the original, and I buy it, I'm not one of the people you address, as I never really experienced it at all.

I beg to differ my friend. Square-Enix is basically a copyright to Playstation. They havent come out with any "Big Hitters" lately
Final Fantasy VII is and was the Next Generation of all final Fantasies... not only did final fantasy VII benefit from itself, it helped create the
"Computer Graphics" for the first time in many video games in videogame history.
Now, because it was voted for best graphics, "all new animated computer graphics" and so on.
if they did make the movie into a game, and they will, they will make a LOT, A TON, of MULAH

Oh, but they do. You see, if they don't recreate the EXACT same tone/mood the whole deal, then the players won't like it. Players that, like you said, are so intimate with the story after playing many times over again. So what the consumer thinks/feels (in this case) has everything to do with the remake.

lol, i've only played the game and seen the movie. The rest is just crap, I know that. Many people don't. So I don't bother with it. And they started the spinoffs for one reason: to fill the demand for more from this c
