Why do they need pre-release pics? AvP Classic 2000 was a rerelease for modern OSes way back when AvP 2010 came out and they didn't have any pics of it until it actually was released. Even if they change stuff, there's not enough people who would look at it and notice the differences to warrant shots.

Well that's AvP not Square :P To be fair Square has always released in game pics of every-single-project they work on. It's strange that this is 'coming soon' yet nothing.
 
or they read this forum: " Ah darn it! They discovery our plain!, must release a proper update, if so, they will complain a lot"
 
I feel like this thread is going in circles.  :P

(that maybe they are listening).  Regardless, we'll always have mods for the 1998 PC discs (which I still have from then), so if they fail to make it worth buying its on them.

I would pay for in-game items. The money would go to Square-Enix and Steam for making it possible to have new optional downloadable content, such as third person camera angles of the party leader on the field.  8-)

Square Enix will release the PC version that is compatible with windows vista and 7 with a new installer, something like the Ultima Edition. They will probably change the ff7 config to add it as an option in game. Also the resolution will be increased from 640x480 to perhaps 1600x900. They will smooth out the field backgrounds and fmvs. Also fix the errors of the previous pc versions (vincent aerith death animation glitch, weapon fmv error, snowboard game frame rate). Also the file saves will be uploaded to a server so you don't have to worry about having your save files lost or corrupt. Music will be updated from midi to mp3.

My opinion is FFVII bootleg is better than this. So dont buy it when it comes out.

The same thing will happen for FF8 too.

:roll:

You people are way too overconfident, They're very likely not gonna change anything, they will just make it compatible with XP/Vista/7 and add a protection against modding and that's it. Higher res, smoothed backgrounds and FMVs, maybe in your dreams...   :|

@ajthedj747

And guess what, that "new downloadable content" will cost money again, if they even decide to do such thing.

It is incredible how easy people can be ripped off by large game companies in this day and age...I never bought any DLC for any game that i own. To me it's just a rip-off in most cases. Some ppl just have too much money to spend i guess.

No way. Not when the same game is on PSN for ten bucks. Not unless they don't wanna actually make any sales.

They recently released FF3 on Android for 15.99$ ... I hope nothing less than 20$ for the game.

The difference is, the Android version was a port of a full remake the game got on the DS, complete with entirely new assets, etc. And the DS version still sells new for $16.94 on Amazon, so the Android price is on par with what was already on the market. This isn't a re-release of something from 1998, this is another version of something that still sells retail.

In Final Fantasy VII's case, there is no evidence that the re-release will have any new content of any sort, beyond some filtered videos and an improved engine. At it's core, this is the same game as what's selling on PSN for ten bucks, so it'd be lunacy to charge twice that for what's essentially the same thing.
 
This is all true. I didn't look at the hole picture.

So yeah, in that case I do believe that it will be for around 10$. If they do change some graphics or anything major, which I highly doubt, they might ask more.

Maybe they will do modifications like CTDS... hahahahahaha nah Square knows that they could sell a toaster branded FFVII and still make millions, why work on an already selling success product?
 
They'll charge too much for it initially, find sales medicore and then lower it by 5 bucks and maybe throw in some worthless gimmick.
squarenix in charge of not fucking up? HAAAHHAHA.

Judging by the reaction I am seeing on forums, with the "WOW!" responses, that will be what happens.  People will buy anything now.  I am putting a small amount of blind hope to 1 side for high res vids or backgrounds.  The reality is, it will be the same game.
 
Heck, they're not even Steam achievements. 
Did you play with lock blocks when you were little? @,@
 
no idea what they are. I feel like the people that are going to buy the rerelease already know the game. what achievments could they possible come up with besides story line. like find yuffie, vincent, kill all weapons, all limit breaks, all ultimate weapons and so on. its all stuff i do by default. i even make it a point to master the 4 enemy skill materia even though i find them pointless. theres nothing real they can do.
 
I might buy this because I'm sick of the work it takes to mod the game. My discs are also starting to get aged wear. I know ISO's would be the answer, but whatever.

I'm thinking of just buying this and be done with modding FF7 for good.
 
you do realize that a modded game will still be 100 times superior to this re-release

Depends what you are modding....  I have had no issue modding the game and only use my own installers for menu (+ extras), models and FMV.

Remix has severe issues, Hardcore mod may have a few, there are some niggles here and there with aalis driver, but generally speaking, it is pretty straight forward.

mounting the disk, installing it ( taking into consideration to type in a custom path ) and going to the folder, all in all, takes on a mediocre pc about 2 minutes. literally.
