Well that made me happy.

Oh I hope they rerelease 8. I'd love to see Rinoa with a couple hundred thousand more polygons...

 

[Cless]

you sicko...but they won't they lost too much money. And hope ffXI bombs which would hurt them even more.

 

[Asz]

Remember, sony gave them a billion dollars recently (well, maybe not that much, but just about as much as they lost, I think ) so Square should be doing just fine. I do agree though, I can't wait to see FF8 looking better than ever, i'd buy the system that it was on just to play the *new* FF8. ( I'll probably have a job by then.... )

 

[Cless]

the money basically covered their asses and gave them money to continue and i doubt it gave them enough to take on side projects that could possiblity bomb.

 

[Nameless]

Well, the question really is, why wouldn't it sell if it was rereleased with great enchantments??! For me, I'd buy a remake of FF7&8 and won't even think about wasting anything on FFXI.

BTW, did anyone hear about the "Another Story" extra disk coming with the international version of FFX?? Could it possibly be that square is going to make a follow-up to FFX?? Sounds wierd

 

[Demigod]

I think the real question is, why is Square even making remakes? They should be putting all their efforts into making better games, not rehasing old ones with better graphics. Or if they're going to remake anything then they should translate and release the games that were never released in the US (Seiken Densetsu 3, FF3). I think that company has lost all initiative.

final fantasy 7 and 3 are as good as squaresoft gets

 

[Kane]

I wouldn't say that. Chrono Trigger, Xenogeears, Secret of Mana, and ­Œ “`à‚R are truly amazing games. There are some other gems out there too.

Um Demigod, FF3 for the SNES/Super Famicom was released in the US. It is the US version of FF6 in Japan. Or did you mean FF3 for the 8 bit Nintendo? That one was never released over here (in the US) but 100% translated versions can be found. I know I have one.
sincerely,

Threre is only one reason square would remake FF7 and FF8 and is if they have extras and are to lazy to make a new game. I wouldn't buy just i won't buy the new launar when comes out becuase i want to see game companies make new and oringal games.

I've got FF3 also. And 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6. My sister happens to be addicted to 2, but I'm never going to be able to play them until I pass all the higher ones first. The graphics change is too much for me at this point.

Heh, heh. Just passed FF9 last night too!

 

[Asz]

Yeah, remake the old ones with better graphics and release them on the PS2 for those who missed out on the originals (that would be me, I was 7 when FF was around, I remember somebody who had it) and doesn't know about emulating.

 

[Laguna Loire]

Yeah, that'd be pretty cool. Put FF 1-6 on a single CD!

Now that's an biriliant idea that will never see the light Maybe in 20 years or so

 

[G-Pitts]

20 years from now this games will be very Classic, just like DonkeyKong or Popeye in NES

 

[Cless]

I was looking at rpgamer.com and they had an article saying square is going to remake a couple of games on the ps2...what waste they could make so much better on the pc.

 

[Demigod]

sxamiga: Yes, I was referring to the NES version, the true FF3. I thought it was a good game for its time, much like FF5. They could re-make it with better graphics or something. Still, the game was a bit sketchy on the details of the character classes and such. At any rate I think chances are very small they'll make a port of it.

Really? Hmm, I didn't really like FF2 that much, it was just way too different for my tastes.

 

[Laguna Loire]

Looks like they're going to have remakes of Chrono Trigger and FF Tactics. Nice.
