So whatever happened to the 'big FF7 announcement'? |

Ó
Let me throw out this quick post to clarify things and set matters in order. I know probably a handful of you are waiting out for that "big FF7 announcement" that Square Enix promised to reveal during their DKS3713 event. Well, the event's finished now, and maybe some of you (myself included, to an extent) are asking "What the -- that's it?!"
Well, to the untrained eye, maybe the "big FF7 announcement" has just gone MIA, but actually, if you look close enough, it's there. The way I see it, the so-called "big FF7 announcement" or "BFF7A" (a term which I'm now coining, thank you very much) has actually already been revealed. Sorry to get your hopes down, but here's the deal:
BFF7A = FF13 demo included with FF7ACC
Yeap. That was it. I said as much yesterday in the "REMAKE 7" post, and I'm saying it again - now with more firm belief since the DKS3713 event is over and done with.
I know it might be tough for some of you to accept it, but if you want to take the fanboy route (which I hope you don't...), there's always the brighter side of the "oh well, at least the demo's going to be a PS3 exclusive" argument. (Which isn't entirely 100% sure yet though)
But moving on. How was the big FF7 announcement the FF13 demo? That's because if you trace back all this unnecessary hype to the original quote of Testuya Nomura, the only thing he did confirm were the following:
- They'll be announcing the release date of FF7ACC at the DKS3713 event.
- To accompany this announcement, they'll make another big announcement, and
- that it will shock the fans in attendance.
So there you go. Move along now. Stay toasty.

As far as I remember, it will be just a "major shocking annoucement which will shock fans"

They said they will be giving a date for FF7ACC and alongside this, a big announcement that will shock the fans. People tought that along side FF7ACC the big announcment was also a reference to FF7.

I'm not going to pay $30 for a demo of a game that will likely suck seeing as how Final Fantasy games all became crap after the PS1. I'll pass on this one.

sure, i guess it was a somewhat big announcement but not a lot of people were shocked.

Who actually thought that There was going to be an FFVII remake? It was highly unlikely anyways.

chocobos and cid.
Since Hironobu Sakaguchi and Nobuo Uematsu left Square enix has no direction. It would be nice if Square enix would link the Final fantasy worlds together
and call it Final fantasy universe (MMORPG idea) at least for continuity just a thought .
I do understand the concept of how Final fantasy first originated with Hironobu Sakaguchi . And it has become a tradition to always make a new story when making a
Final fantasy game.
But damn I wish Square enix stop being so hush hush and secretive with their games it is really getting old and frustrating.
And give the fans what they want a FF7 REMAKE.

If you can't report gaming news right, then I'm going elsewhere as I'm getting sick to death of your hyped up rubbish!

"Hell no son! Let's make some new crap that won't even really remind people of the good ol' days of FF3 and FF4, except for the pointless chocobos and moogles. Also, there has to be a character named Cid. You can name him Sid if you prefer. Get to work!"
