Those who are still hoping for a Final Fantasy VII remake on their Sony PlayStation Portable units might be interested to know that Square Enix has not entirely closed its options on the matter.In an interview that can be found in this month's edition of the publication Official PlayStation Magazine, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII director Hajime Tabata shared that a remake of the classic is still possible. He discussed:
I think it is because the conditions of the game have not been met at this point.
The possibility for a remake may become greater if, for instance, the schedules of the original members of the Final Fantasy VII development team, such as Kitase and Nomura, open up.
The two names Tabata mentioned were really vital in the making of FF VII. Yoshinori Kitase was the game's director and scenario writer while Tetsuya Nomura served as its character head designer.

If you are going to do it, do it for PS3. We've already seen the tech demo. If a remake came to PS3 it would define the system at this point. You need to make a remake where it is actually going to be improved upon

whats the problem, they can just translate it to english already
the whole reason for me to buy the psp was for ff. thank god there are new things found, but they need to hurry up.. FFVIICC JAP is cool, but i want to know what they are saying

I mean, come on. It would be much cooler to play it with those super-cool HD graphics.
And the 1.8 GB UMD can't hold that much data. Blu-Ray on the other hand can hold so much more stuff.

Crisis Core is coming out anyway, the point of the article is to say that the much-anticipated remake of FFVII is a possibility, provided they can get the original team together to make it.
And for the record... I vote they make it for PS3, because I already played through the original on my PSP.

but of course, if it's something new. different gameplay style and stuff like that, we welcome it with open arms

A PS3 remake would be sooo much better.

I'm doubtful of an updated PSP version. If anything it'll be PSP and PS2, since it's sold more.
If Square Enix liked money they'd release it on the DS or Wii, but hey.

@asusboy:
If you mean gameplay then NO NO NO NO NO.
Just a graphics improvement is all that FF7 needs.
Maybe some new features.
Next... PSP definitely has better specs that psx.
Would be nice if they remake it for both PSP and PS3. (Not likely though)
Anyways....
Yeah I hope this does go through also.
What would be really cool...
If they redid the graphics for ff6 (ff3).

The graphics would be amazing for it
and they have said that the ps3 was gonna get the remake from the beginning anyways so why would they change platforms?

i've always wanted to play ff7 portable!
it will have better graphics since its stronger than the ps1

FF7 wouldn't be as hard to remake as most people think either. Since Crisis Core is there, they now have a graphics engine that would work for the game.
One thing that many people who posted don't get. 1.8GB is enough memory. The reason that most games take up so much memory is the fact that they put FMV in them. It doesn't matter how good the quality of the FMV is, if it's there, it takes up a huge amount of space.
Squaresoft could just do what Monolith Soft did with the Xenosaga series,what Koji Igarashi did with Lament of Innocence, or what Atari did with the Dragon Ball games. Use the in-game graphics engine instead of FMVs.

With Final Fantasy, the game series that relies greatly on beautiful FMVs, you think that they should use a not-so-beautiful game engine?

In the mean time i'm still getting over the fact that crisis core IS coming out in europe....Oh god...
Reply
Oh, and who gives a stuff about the FMVs? I'd prefer a longer, more enjoyable game, than a pretty one.

To all purists who would boycott square-enix if they did remake FF7, I understand where you're coming from... However, if they do remake it, you don't have to play it. Remember that.
