Between now and TGS. That's my bet.

I have a weird feeling that it wouldn't be announced during this year but we will see. (I'm not getting involved with avatar bet anyway)
Edited: now I'm tempting to change my countdown list just to include FF7 Remake.
I'd guess Dragon Quest XI has a more likely chance over FFVII Remake lol.

Are people completely delusional or something? WHY would Square even announce a FF7 remake when the PC port is not even out on PS4 yet...? Wouldnt make any sense..

Haven't heard the podcast. Could they just mean Dissidia or something else?
Wouldn't mind if you could paraphrase what they said, if possible.
Unless they reveal the PC port was a troll and announce an actual remake.

You all love pain and suffering.
Disappointment is your Panacea.
Despair is your sustenance.
Your only joy is the soul crushing defeat that comes after believing in SE.
We are one and the same. For a new Wild ARMs is both my rope to happiness, and the noose in which Sony hangs me.

So what did the podcast mention?
The chance FF VII remake announced this year or even in production is highly unlikely.

Unless they canceled the PS4 version of the original due to negative fan backlash and are ramping up production on a remake that retcons 95% of the compilation.

The latest podcast? Some E3 talk there?
FF VII (PC port) was supposed to be release this spring, which is almost over. Maybe they saw the backlash and they'll announce a full remake soon. Verendus says it's in development.
I don't think SQEX will make much fuss about the PC FFVII port. They'll announce that it is available and that's it. They know how hard they trolled us at PSX.
As for a real remake. I don't think we will hear anything major FF related stuff until after FFXV is out and selling. The last thing I would want as a gaming company is to take attention away from my next main installment. FF remakes and ports are fine to fill the gaps, but a FFVII HD remake is one of the few games that could easily take all the attention away from XV.

Not a chance. They won't necessarily "win", but they're not gettingstomped.

I'm just stating what the 8-4 Podcast guys heard from James Mielke, Director of Communications at Shinra Technologies.

You guys are joking and trolling me now... How could you guys seriously still believe an actual remake is right around the corner. SE knows since the PS3 tech demo that we want a FF7 remake...

Square must have something big enough that would warrant them having their first E3 conference. We know FF XV is going to have a small showing, and FF VII fits the bill quite nicely.
Wouldn't bet on it, but what is talking so long to release a damn PC port.

Spider/Focus Homes Post Apocalyptic RPG The Technomancer will be shown more at E3. Currently scheduled for PC, PS4, XB1 in 2016
Tamaki from Unseen64 just tweeted that Fallout 4 could be revealed today

Sony need to have a good one.
Their line-up for the rest of the year is very poor and they aren't presenting at Gamescom so their next presentation is in October. If E3 is bad for them, they have the rest of June, July, August and September and some of October to wait before getting the hype building again.
I personally think skipping Gamescom is a bad idea.

I don't expect it to take up 10-15 minutes of the MS conference. Does any single game usually do that at a first party conference?
They'll show it at the Microsoft event, then say look forward to more at the Square event, I suspect.
Its one of Squares big IPs, they will want to get maximum exposure for it across both.
Sony/EA did a similar thing for Dead Space a few years ago iirc, and do it for Ubisoft games too
Has this guy got a proven track record? I don't think I could handle an announcement today.

Which podcast? I'm behind on a few and need to catch up. As much detail as possible would save me a ton of time. Thanks in advance.
his track record is previous work. He has lots of connections to the industry due to Unseen64 where they dig up info on beta version and unreleased games.
WAIT WHAT!?!?!?
HOLY SHIT JUST GIVE US A RELEASE YEAR
Then again literally everyone knows it's coming so announcing it now isn't too out there.
No way you can announce one of the most awaited AAA games without teaser web pages and trailers teasing an announcement
/s
I mean... I'm not sure that "/s" is necessary. Nothing's happened yet.
Meh, save it for E3. I hate it when companies blow their loads early.
Yes, he seems like a reliable source. He was in this thread a couple day ago talkin about The Uncharted Trilogy and the new Skylanders. Maybe he will show up again

Basically just a one-liner, though. Not really discussed at all, just a random quip.

I don't really care what we get just as long as Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus are non-canon.
The rumor's from X My Heart. Basically a guest from q-games is acting as a secondary source citing James Meilke that Microsoft will get "their balls kicked". It's flowery language and I don't know much about Meilke other than he's formerly at 1UP and now working at Shinra Technologies. He could be a Sony fanboy for all I know.
I just guess that he has heard of a PS4 exclusive from SE and as a biased employee maybe he thinks it's a huge fucking deal. I also don't think Shinra Technologies is coming to PS4 cos that kinda competes with PSNow.
This game actually sounds pretty cool!Spider/Focus Homes Post Apocalyptic RPG The Technomancer will be shown more at E3. Currently scheduled for PC, PS4, XB1 in 2016
Spider has been teetering on the edge of breaking out for a little while now. Hopefully this is good!
I honestly think people will be underwhelmed by Square Enix and Bethesda due to high expectations. To the people thinking that Square is going to blow the lid off everything possible, not a chance. They will have Tomb Raider (though I bet it's short in order to give Microsoft the bigger stage presence for that game), Deus Ex, Final Fantasy XV, Dragon Quest Heroes (release date, not much else), Kingdom Hearts III, and, if we're lucky, Hitman. To be honest, that's expecting a lot from Square, but it's realistic.
Bethesda will likely show some substantial Doom gameplay, Battlecry, whatever their surprise is (I'm not willing to say it's Fallout just to avoid getting myself hyped and then disappointed if it isn't), and to go out on a short limb, Dishonored 2. I'll make a bold claim and say Dishonored 2 is coming in spring 2016.

care to explain why you believe in a FF7 Remake Announcement? I think its way to early now...and 2017 would fit better.
I wouldn't mind however...and it would be the MEGATON that makes even the Fallout 4 Announcement look small
Yeah, I don't believe this one bit. I don't think any official Bethesda channels will say the word "Fallout" today, much less announce Fallout 4.

Fallout 4 is definitely going to be revealed though like why else would Bethesda have a conference. They need at least one big game, yeh some of you might say DOOM but lets be honest Fallout is bigger.
IntelliHeath

I agreed with you. I think they should save it for E3. It's only one of few things that I'm looking forward for Bethesda conference.
