At least a port from PC is better than emulating the PS1 version again. Maybe they'll take this opportunity to clean up some of the problems with the PC version, though probably not.
 
I will laugh if they use the same terrible music quality from the PC release. No way to mod that :P

I'm almost positive they'll use the same music that is in the Steam version, which is rips of the PSX music. It'd be MORE work to get the '98 version's terrible MIDI music working on PS4.
 
Nothing to see here..

The only good thing would perhaps be the possibility to add mods from PC to this version, but with the PS4 I bet that is mega-gimped without resorting to piracy.
 
Such an effrontery.... They are more shameless than Spanish government bro, probably will squeeze the goose that lays the golden eggs to death. Epic fail
 
IIRC wern't they were working on this last year with that Shinra Technologies thing (streaming)? Not sure if it's the same thing as I don't follow consoles much these days, but makes sense we would see such a standard "test" port..
 
Now the question is... are they going to stretch the entire screen or simply crop everything ? I guess the "enhanced graphics" will feature hi-res new font (just like the 2012 japanese PC release) ...and that's about it.
 
Here's the FF7 'Dive In' version I mentioned earlier.. Interesting overview of FF7i being streamed over iPad via subscription (3 days, 7 days, 1 month or 1 year).. JP only at the moment. Nice text :)

Sony has (or is still planning) there own service, I guess they re-named it to Playstation Now.

Anyway it funny to the PC version on an iPad with the PSX button layout.
 
Well guys its not a remake but at least it's 1080P. I'm so mad. Square Enix just blew their chance with a really amazing opportunity. If they ever do remake FF7 it will no longer have the buzz behind it because of this. SadFace

FFVII "Returns"? It never went away, they sold it for every fuckin platform in the last years. And they didn't release it for PS2 because PSX discs were compatible... I think its the most prostituted game in the VG history  :evil:
 
I'm curious as to how this version is going to be tailored for the PS4 though. For example, will they change things like "PUSH [ASSIST]" back to the original Playstation buttons? Will the screen be stretched or will there be an option for aspect ratio? (or very unlikely, will it support true widescreen)?

They're probably not going to do much to it, but since the PS4 has similar architecture to that of a PC, I'm wondering why it's not out like... right now or in a couple of weeks. They must be making some optimisations.
 
Even if so, it's nothing that we haven't already done here.  It's just more money grabbing.  They don't need to remake it since they can just keep rereleasing.

Final Fantasy 7 Forever
 
If there is one thing we cant do really well yet it is field and world scripting. We have the means like MR but we dont have new dungeons or quests yet. Sure there are some edits like the Aeris patch or the script changes I had to make for single player combat and also more demanding stuff in the overhauls for the PC version but there is still very little new content. More changing what we have.

I made a small quest for psx where a new enemy appears in the isle of the round cave, those chosen theme plays, a new reward is given when defeating him and the wanderer in call gives you something for the loot.

It was quite simple to do but just changing the scripts and dialogues and designing a new enemy already took extremely much time regarding how small this “quest“ was.


What I wanna say is that if there was something sensible they could do with a rerelease that would be extra content like the stuff from Dawn of Souls. New dungeons on the worldmap, new enemies with new models in them, new superbosses, some new weapons etc..Stuff like this takes long for us to do but would be a cake for Square...We could fight Sapphire weapon in some underwater cave or so.
