The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

[D Double]

So we can finally watch stuff from a thumb drive? That's one of the bigger reasons i been staying with the ps3

Last guardian, and FF7 remake are enoigh to make me happy with this E3

Yup, tested it and it worked.

Tip though. If the video is in the root of the drive, you won't see it displayed. It has to be in a folder.

I saw that but wasnt sure and didnt want to embarrass myself.

That game needs to be rebooted. Only as a survival horror game. If they are gonna go RE 5 and 6 with it they can keep it.

I think it's a go, the guy who leaked FFVII from GAF said there will be a new Parasite Eve game.

Is FFVI for the iOS worth picking up along with the after years since I never played it the first time it came out on SNES? I'm actually thinking of buying that package they have on the App store for the discounted price. The only FF before 7 that I played in whole were 1 and 2 for my PSP.

'Final Fantasy VII': The challenge of remaking a classic



View media item 1587886



Almost 20 years later, Final Fantasy VII is being remade. It's no prequel, sequel, gamified Advent Children thing. It's a proper darn remake. The short trailer shown first at PlayStation's E3 2015 event was fairly obtuse -- we don't even get to see the protagonists' face, but there's still a lot of excited people. A whole lot. How do you break the mold without breaking hearts? With some translation assistance, we asked its producer, Tetsuya Nomura, all about it.

After announcing that the PC version of FFVII was coming to PS4, why announce the remake now?

Tetsuya Nomura​: The PC port, honestly, wasn't really on my radar. I thought it was already on sale. Regardless, there's really no relation between the PC version and this remake. Why now? This week at E3 we announced several titles coming to the PS4: not only FFXV, Kingdom Hearts 3, and World of Final Fantasy, but [also] a new Star Ocean and more. Rather than announce the remake after those titles went on sale, we wanted to give gamers something that would make them happy -- open them up, perhaps, to buying into the PS4.

The trailer was vague; it felt like it could well be a sequel, or even a prequel.

TN: That's exactly why I wanted to have the word "Remake" into the trailer -- precisely to clarify that. At this point, I can't talk to specifics. Or at least, I'm not allowed to talk about the specifics. But the original is out again: The "HD" PC version is coming to PS4 already. We don't need two of the same thing. Even if we beautified and upgraded the visuals -- something that's bound to happen. If it's a full remake, then of course, we want to take a different approach. If we actually just upgraded the visuals -- there'd be no need for me to direct it.

Well, I can't honestly say. But things will change.

Is there a comparable remake in gaming, movies?
TN: If I say anything, then that could reveal too much. If I say, "It's a bit like this," you'll suddenly think: "Ah well, then that's going to turn out just like that." In the trailer, at the end, I try to reference that: "The reunion at hand may bring joy, but it may bring fear. But let us embrace whatever it brings."

People will wonder how far the game will change and exactly what is going to change. Sure, at first there's the joy that the game's returning, but then the concern that what you liked in the original may change or disappear completely. People have different demands. But if we take everything literally the same, we're turning into the HD port again.

The trailer seemed pretty serious in tone. Will the occasional humor the original game carry through?

TN: The comedy or the lighthearted parts -- I like those. I don't want to change it that much. But we can't have these upgraded, beautiful 3D models of Cloud and Barrett, still lining up in a row, jumping forward to attack an enemy, then jumping back to wait for their next turn. That would be bizarre. Of course there will likely be changes there. But if we took away parts like the lighter moments of the game, then it would no longer be FFVII.

Music to my EARS!!!

Regarding FF VII

I can already tell if there is an english dub, i won't like it.  I'd rather read text than listen to that.  How are they gonna do all of Barret's #@&$* cursing?  And I won't be able to re-name my dudes..

How are they going to do RedXIII in a sailor suit or the cross dressing or implied rape or Cid cussing his wife out .

So many questions but from that interview Nomura and the guys don't sound worried at all so I'm not.
There will be changes but I think the tradeoff will be worth it.

If you have a Vita or PS3, but it from the PS Store. The iOS version is hard to play with no tactile buttons.

[ciscokid]

Maaaaan so happy to read that interview

 

[Fozz]

Happy with what was said about the FF7 remake. This is crazy...I'm looking forward to this remake so bad. Forgot how I thought Tifa was so fly for a video game character lol.

Eh, its a tough call then. I get really hung up on there being no buttons to play with, but I never play mobile games outside of FF. If you're used to mobile games, I would say absolutely. It's a good port. (I have it on Android, however, not iOS)

I found this review fairly accurate.

[Fozz]

Hmmm. Maybe Ill purchase FF7 to play on my iPad for the time being.

Smh, I thought the game was already out lol.

 

[Sinner]

So much excitement about FF!  Wish I was into RPGs!

[Bad Religion]

You obviously won't be using them as you have too many games on X1, so throw them my way. 

Kidding, but let us know what you end up getting. Im guessing maybe the UC4 beta?

 

[sunshineblotters]

Imagine the Bahamut Zero and Knights of the Round version of this
