Motomu Toriyama still interested in FFVII remake |
Listed in: PS3, Xbox 360 Tags: final fantasy vii, games for windows, Motomu Toriyama, Square Enix
Square Enix's Yohinori Kitase and Motomu Toriyama may think that an HD remake of Final Fantasy VII is a humongous undertaking, but that doesn't mean they don't want to have a crack at it. Well, Toriyama anyway. The Final Fantasy XIII director recently expressed interest in such a project.
“I’m really interested to see this more complete form of Final Fantasy VII portrayed more realistically with the voice and animation and all the suttle expressions there,” he told GameTrailers. “I’d be interested to see that and to make that, it would be a great experience. I don’t get tired of people asking that question, so I’ll continue to answer my thoughts as long as people keep asking.”
You can hear more of Toriyama's thoughts in the video below. The remake part starts at around the 4:20 mark.

My favorite game in the mgs series is "Twin Snakes" which is a rehash of the first mgs. It's the same game with the same story but with updated graphics and gameplay. If FFVII got that treatment, I would be all over it.
Besides, it seems like Square's going downhill on the new games. Can't judge XIII yet, but X was just good (instead of great like earlier ones) and I got bored less than halfway through XII and quit. So maybe a rehash will be better.

I don't find the new FF that's coming out that compelling. I just can't take a black guy, with afro that has bird in his hair, too seriously. Althought i might be wrong. I'll have to try it out.
FF12 was just lame. The gameplay was good, i agree. The storyline was good, i highly disagree. Storyline was just way too horrible. Did anyone really take any of the characters from that game seriously? bleh

That said, I quit playing FF after VII...fuck gunswords and girl bands....
With the new one, I think I can handle a black dude with a chicken in his afro.....because the fighting and graphics seem top notch...we will see about the rest of the drama crap tho...

SE really should just get the project under way because it will make them plenty of money and make their fans happy.

A remake would be great, especially since there are so many ppl that have never played it, yet call themselves FF fans....
On that note, they should also remake FF III (or VI depending where you are) Kefka in 3D would be amazing....

like you said, it's the story. it's like giving a rusted classic car a tune up and paint job doesn't ruin it... now try changing the engine and yeah you've ruined it.
i'd love to see today's kids excited about FF7...

Exactly, Just the graphics and a few teaks to the combat system.
Nothing major, just aesthetic differences, like holding square to make the HUD disappear for those that enjoy watching the summoning à la FF-IX.
Although with the higher resolution that probably wouldn't be necessary
And for the love of god do not make the battle system like Crisis Core or any other new FF game.

I was just playing FF7 again like for the 17? times? just got out of Midgard...
Well, I positively believe they going to do it.
But when? thats the question.
When they see the red arrow of the earning chart going down like an escalator. Thats probably they'll pull out their life line like "RE-make of FF7"
Seriouly I havent enjoy playing a FF game ALL the WAY to the end since X...
They Better pull out their big gun soon otherwise, I'll saves a lot of $$$$ years to come....LOL...!

It's Literally impossible. The game happened already, the people who played it then remember how epic it was. You cannot remake a game with the same magic as the original cause it was a different time period and it literally blew everyone away of what the PS1 could do.
Stop being whiny little fools and accept a remake and move on. You're all going to buy it anyway either for trophies or if you're fans of SE or FF7 and it'll be a massive success.
