I'll probably get this, lol.
EDIT: VII, not VI. Fuck, lol. Can a mod change that?

I was actually interested, until I saw it's FFVII and not VI.
Yeah, that's my bad x_x
Is it going to have the same retarded glitches the old pc version did?
Fucking remake for ps3 already.
You know what I mean!
Shut the fuck up about the remake already.
It's telling that they're showing zero gameplay screenshots in the trailer and all the media on the webpage.
This is going to be a lazy port of the PC version Eidos distributed way back when. That version was pretty ass (bizarre 3d accelerator compatability, extremely minor model updates, off-sounding midi samples).
Might be interesting to see how they handle achievements!
I don't even know how to react to this. Having seen that there already was an FF7 PC release, I'm just totally fucking confused.
The original FF7 PC release as an abomination; buggy as hell and funky frame rates. If they polish the clunky polygons and offer a consistent frame rate I'll be happy, though I'm very doubtful of that happening.
I'm a bit curious as to why the min. specs are set to a fairly decent standard, its nothing uber high and amazing but its still a lot higher than what the game should be set to run as, makes me suspect they're setting it to run at 60FPS up from 30, and up-scaling the display from 360p to 720p.
Probably really basic ones, Obtain Master Materias, Level 99, Ultima Weapons, Limit Break Lv.4's, Ruby, Emerald defeat, Gold Chocobo, Story check points, clearing the game.
I hope for challenge achievements like defeat Safer∙Sephiroth with a party of with a Level average of 10 or lower, or Ruby/Emerald Weapon with non Mime / Underwater / Final Attack equipped.
achievements: 36 of them is way too few.
cloud saving: lol, big deal.
character booster: are you fucking kidding me...
the only thing i care for about this is that in the character section they spell her name as Aerith.
Hope this is the final nail in the coffin for Aeris spelling. And with that, it gives hope that they polished the script, or maybe i'm just too optimistic.
This guy are sick.
The original FF7 source code probably doesn't even exist anymore, so all they have is the old PC version to start from. Hopefully they have more time and a larger budget this time or they've got another disaster on their hands. Even with a larger budget/more time it's unlikely they can upscale all the old backgrounds and cutscenes to look good at modern resolutions.
While this looks like a gigantic joke and/or slap-in-the-face... It's possible that they are testing the waters in regards to how much buzz (and money) a simple rerelease for FF7 would make.
This totally overthrows (can't think of a better word) the Qhimm community's efforts out the window somewhat. Now they actually have a 2nd game to salvage from to continue their "HD remake" of FF7.
(qhimm is a website/forum dedicated to completely to FF7 PC in regards to remaking it to hacking it to modding it)
They should just go the HD release route and make a combo pack of FF8, FF9, and FF10.
Mostly just want to play an upscalled FF9 on my computer.
