Star Ocean 3 is a great RPG storyline wise, fun to play battle wise. I personally LOVE all of the "Tales of ... " series by namco. And as much as I love ff7 and would purchase a remake...I highly doubt they will.

if they do make a remake they should make ruby and emerald weapon harder. they should just have a difficulty setting. cause once you have knights of the round mastered and phoenix it's pretty easy after that. sephiroth wasn't even a challenge after knights of the round.

yeah and the movie came out this year really kicked ass ! I think they should remake 7 and make another one about the movie that would be tight . I dont know what Square is thinkin if you have a golden goose would you make that b*tch pop eggs left and right? FF7 is there golden goose all the other ones made on the ps1 or ps2 did not live up to the hype that it made though some where pretty good

Hate to break it to you guys, but Square will never make a Final Fantasy VII remake. Square has made so much money off of the countless great games they've made (like the 12+ other Final Fantasies) that the money VII would bring in wouldn't justify making it again. Why not? Firstly, with all of the intense graphics and gameplay features today, games cost a lot more to make. Its also obviously very difficult to do and very time consuming. Second, Square would be risking a lot of negative critism from all of the fans of the original game (never mind what the original game makers are saying). If the game was remade, there is bound to be many changes to things such as screen positions, camera angles, text from the NPCs, monsters, as well as countless other small changes. Even if they keep the story line exactly the same, chances are much of the game will be changed in the process. Its not like they can just magic up a new FFVII with better graphics and the same feel as the first: changing the graphics would make it a WHOLE NEW GAME. So as BIG FFVII fan, I would love to see the game with better graphics. But would I get upset if they screwed around with my favorite scenes? Yes. Would I be pissed off if they left out my favorite lines? Yes. Would I be bummed out if they took out some cool monsters and scenarios from the game and replaced them with new ones? Yes. And I'm sure I speak for just about everyone when I say that. So think before you start shouting for a remake... would it really be worth it? The vision of FFVII you have now in your head would be gone forever in place of whatever Square came out with. So I suggest, and I'm taking my own advice as well trust me, that we all suck it up, enjoy our FFVII movie and "sequel" game, and just replay the good old FFVII as it was meant to be, and not worry about the graphics. They're not even that bad anyway.
P.S. In response to the last post: Haven't game makers made a TON of movie related games before? Its not that they're too short to make, they usually just suck pretty bad. Square probably doesn't want to chance it.

Im gonna have to crush u ppls hopes and agree with Kjata on this one...
If square was gonna remake FF7 they wouldnt have come up with so many spin offs to be put on new games and movies. If they truly wanted to remake it then they wouldnt of extended the storyline. Its too much exposure. Ppl are gonna be tired of it eventually. Im gonna use DBZ for example cuz it really is similar.
Remember back when DBZ final bout came out for PS1 everyone hella wanted that game cuz there was no other DBZ game in a long time, ever since snes and that only came out in japan. Final Bout was sold on e bay for like $300. Finally another DBZ came out many years later with alot of hype in magazines...sadly it was an rpg on GBA but still it was flying off the shelves. Ppl still wasnt satisfied so finally it came out as a fighting game for PS2. It got alot of attention but the game wasnt great it was a bad 3d fighter but ppl only played it because it has the "DBZ" good name to support it. After that plenty of DBZ games was released some decent some crap. Up to this point its really getting old and ppl arent really into DBZ games anymore. Heck ppl arent really into DBZ at all nowadays.
So now to finally get to the point. With so much hype on the FF7 remake...only to be dissapointed by having it made into a movie instead, follows the same pattern as the DBZ hype. And with so many spin offs and side storylines, FF7 is gonna get old believe it or not. If the spin offs were really good then its another story but to have it be in another category of games totally kills it. Like dierge of Cerberus for example. Decent game overall but nothing spectacular and its not even an rpg. Same with the cell phone game.
All these weak games using the FF7 name to get sales....its bound to follow the same fate as DBZ.
Same with the FF series also. If FF12 doesnt bring the FF good name out the this several years of slump ever since FF10 then im sorry i dont think they will ever recover back to the way they used to be, simple and epic rpgs like FF1-10.

yo dont make me power UP! on here What the hek are you talking about If people dont like Dbz no more why would there be names in forums like mines and MILLIONS! of others ? . You can do a search on the net and still find alot of sites with millions of fans . The way I see it is Dbz is probly the most popular anime import in the U.S like pokemon(which is still here) it lasted a long ass time it debut here in like 1995 and lasted until 2003 and all good thangs come to and end If I wasnt mistaken so what Fate are you talkin about ? if it suffered a bad fate then you wouldnt see all these games be made right ? . It still comes on , not as much but thats my point. fans love it to death and even they choose to Remake DBZ the fanbase is so big that it would sell , let say they took they whole series and did it in C.G um im for damn sure it would be watch by millions or if just sold in DvD ,Blue Ray ,HD DVD what ever it would sell . The bottom line is the story line is so complex that it could be redone and if we want to get into Fate at least Dbz is puttin out more games then Street Fighter lol whats so bad is Street Fighter is a game that started it all oh and any dbz game out! is better then that final bout sh*t it sucked !. I 'm not tryin to flame just dont not diss my show and lable it as Fate cause it had a great run . So this is why I believe another FF7 can be done , it will sell if they look like they did on Final Fantasy A.C but keep the same old school game play i'd be fine

lol i knew some DBZ fans were gonna rant.... cuz i forgot to say that is my fav anime of all time im just using the games as an example im not even talking about the show at all. Its all about the games here. Cuz seriously DBZ game sales are weak compared to b4. Not alot of ppl bought the recently released Super DBZ did they???
The main thing i was trying to focus on was the hype of the games. No magazine is hypin(is that a word?) about any future releases of DBZ anymore correct??? Cuz so many has been out and the only good ones were Budoki 2&3. And ofcourse DBZ fighters are comin out more than Street fighter and that is the problem. In the past 5 or 6 years too many DBZ games are out so the hype dissappeared. Im saying that if FF7 keeps coming out with weak new spin offs back to back it will totally kill the hype of the original FF7.
So dont trip i aint even talkin about the show i still watch it on demand the andriods episode lol.

yeah lol or course I was gone rant not flame though but you have a point I think alot of people would say budokai 3 was the best I still like 1 and 2 just for fans sake but they got bad reviews I still got tired of people hatin on dbz games when infact they have did them the best they could . I mean come on now its hard! to make a dbz game you have to look at the facts that first , fly, teleport, they fight in the air , and on the ground . Hell thats what people need to realize . I will never criticize atari because they made the best dbz attempt ever its identical to the show and looks like im watchin it on cartoon network . I just think that alot of people give them a bad rap because they dont know how to play that faced pace style that is Dbz.. So they bash it . I belive its for certain people . I also think if maybe all the critics would stop bashin the best atempt lol and hell go to school and make a better one then they would be gettin some were . I didnt even play Super Dbz , just wasnt feelin it but ff7 has a huge fan base . I see your point as they could make it stale but if you count all the threads and other websites fan forums its bound to have success

Yea budokai 3 is the best its fast and the fighting is just like the anime. Atari has DBZ mastered. The PSP version was sick too. But you have to admit all the other ones werent as good. Super DBZ sucks to be honest well in my opinion anyways. Same engine as Street Fighter but still DBZ isnt meant to be like that. Tenkaichi and Budokai does it best. Those are the ones i will stick with from now on. Tenkaichi 3 comin soon by the way cant wait.
So anyways to stick with the topic hopefully the PS1 emulator will come out on the PSP and FF7 will be available. That would be sick.
I know nothing about Crisis Core on the PSP. Is it rpg? If so i hope the materia system is used cuz i miss it. Summoning is cool. Bahamut Zero!!!!!

of course a remake will make tons of fans sour. that's because there's 1-47 specific details about the game that makes it special to each individual. but as long as squarEnix has great ideas to make real improvements on the gameplay, i dont think many fans will be fiercely upset. i know that if they took out the materia system, SE would have 50kabillion zombie monsters at their door. each one claiming to have a Buster Sword (or Masamune) with a Master KOTR and Bahamut Zero summon materia, both with quad magic materia and MP/HP absorb, all equipped while riding a chariot being towed by diamond, emerald, and ruby weapon(s).
but seriously, the money it would cost them to make this game is quite a bit. and pasting the FF7 name to everything (Dirge of Cerberus, CrisisCore, Advent Children, Chocobo Lovelife, Chronicles of Ragnarok, and Masamune Quarterly) can get overwhelming to the fans, but that's just it. most of that stuff is some type of fan service. they're actually taking risks to see if they can make money on the FF7 name. Advent children worked out great. (prob'ly better than they expected, although i think it would have been nice for it to have been a game, but whatever). remaking FF7 would be a risk, but i guarantee you it's one that would pay off tenfold. (i think PS3 sales would explode too)
i think that i mentioned this before, for them to do the remake and also on the Blu-ray disc, have the 'original' included as playable as well. that way fans can get that good 'old school' feel going. honestly, SE doesnt even have to remake it for me. just put it all on one Disc. that's a rumor that i heard about 3-4 years ago. they were supposedly putting 1-6 on a PS2 dvd, and 7-9 on another. or maybe i dreamed it up. but either way a remake will definitely make people happy.

I don't know, but the evidence of a remake is just TOO MUCH. I mean look, we see advent children, then were getting crisis core on psp, then they got On The Way To A Smile, the book that explains alot of final fantasy VII loose-ends. They also got Before Crisis in Japan, a cool cell phone game having to do with turks. There really just pumping us up to give it to us again. Who agrees?

i agree, but i'm hoping that Chocobo Lovelife, Chronicles of Ragnarok, and Masamune Quarterly will show up first though.

@ ChrisCahn , Yo man I didnt know you was a fan like that soo my bad for tranformin like that lmao you were just talkin about the bad games they made but you should check out my page you may like it since you are a fan lmao.
I did love budokai 3 and love the system but also others like the style of tenkaichi so maybe they should just Stick! to those since they give the fans the best of both worlds . I guess they brought out Super Dbz for the fans who complained and are less stilled since it was easier to do the moves.
So back to the topic . Well I think you are right again ,I think FF7 could be remade but it could also be remade wrong too . They kinda are milkin it too much, but I think the way they can stale it is by brangin out all these damn games before 7 and in between or this and that lol just bring the damn thang out! people are gone hate it if they just dont get it over with . I just thought of this ,yo Chris thats a good idea a remake on the psp that way they wont have to change alot of sh*t
@SuperXL LOl yeah you are right it would cost alot to remake it and I'd be very pissed if the materia system is changed just keep it the same , also the MUSIC<--- that sh*t has to be left alone its one of the reasons I fell inlove with the game so I thank the only thang they should touch is the graphics maybe add a hidden new Weapon lol ONXY or some sh*t but I just would love to see them look like they did in A.C

even though Dirge of Cerberus was total sh*t, there will be a FF7 remake. It's not if, but when. There's far to much $$$ in it for Square to ignore a remake.
First month sales of FF7? i guarantee you they'd sell atleast 180,000 copies in Japan. Another 200,000 easy in the U.S. & another 120,000 in Canada/Europe/S. America. Another 50,000+ guaranteed in AUS & Kiwi country.
Add those numbers up.
That's over half a million in sales.
If Squeenix made $5 profit off each sale, after all expenses/advertising, thats $2.75 million in profit.
Any VG executive who would NOT do a remake is stupid. The $$$ gives you the answer.

yeah I think if they made it for the psp or ps3 it would sell oh @SuperXL yo I did like the A.C music it was very tight and
@ Xhardc0re , one hell of a point lol money does talk and you are right they would be dumb not too remake somethin that is in high demand instead of beatin around the bush with spin offs If I was square I'd remake FF7 for either the psp or ps3 then I would make a advent children game since it does tell you the story between 7 and 8 . maybe add different endings you can get like 4 or 5 then I would be done with it

@blacGoku
you said "I would make a advent children game since it does tell you the story between 7 and 8"
what are you talking about?? 7 and 8 what?? not final fantasy right. because you know that the only true sequel to any FF game was 10-2 or X-2 or whatever you wanna call it. none of the characters returned from FF7 to FF8. and the storyline was totally not the same either. just clarify that for me please.

As for the music, this is what i predict
Fighting-The Black Mages
Intro-Advent Children
Prelude- Final Fantasy Vocal Collection VOL.1 (pm me for it)
One Winged angel- similar to that in advent children but with original lyrics
Motorcycle chase- Advent Children
All others that are like Aeris' Theme, Tifa's theme will be stait from Final Fantasy VII Piano Colletion (pm me for it)
As for the game being too expensive to make, think about it. Crappy games cost money too, like the video game adaptment of Open Season. Money is no object for Square-Enix and they have proved it over the years.

A FF 7 remake would be good but if they remove stuff and remake it like the WA1 remake I would avoid it since they change to much
laws of good remakes
1.nothing removed.
2.rebalaceing can be tricky but can be ok.
3.Voice acting ok if done with effort.
4.New graphics engine a must.
5.New combat system only if the old one is kept.
Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Lets renegotiate them.
