Verendus: I think it'll be the remake. No different than what I've said a year prior. Also tell you to expect other things.
Jabroni Mark: Doesn't seem too clear.

Changed the series for the worst 
Good game though. No idea what it was about.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Happy birthday to what is for me, the most important and best video game ever. It came along at the right time and offered just the right experience which left quite an impact on me and changed me not only as a gamer but as a human.

It was a beautiful experience. It's still a very good game. But I don't want modern Square Enix's bastard reinterpretation of it. I'm happy to leave it as it is. The priorities and artistic inclinations of the people they have at Square Enix now, from the top executives on down to the ascended otaku who will overwrite the script in the localization, are wrong. They can't do it justice.

To celebrate, I am going to start my next playthrough of IX, the best game in the series.
by far
Why don't you play both? You could beat FF7 while waiting for a random battle in IX to load.

I definitely plan on playing VII soon. I have never played more than a couple of hours of it as a kid, but I have both IX and VII on PSN, so I will get around to VII sooner or later.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
The segment with these guys in Nibelheim creeped me out as a kid.
So did the segment with Jenova in the Shinra building.
...and the creepy choir music that plays when Sephiroth goes insane.
This game had a lot of scary moments for an eight year old.

Best game in series. Happy Birthday Nostalgia.
God. So much time spent in the barracks playing this when it released.

Between the stellar art direction, beautiful pre-rendered backgrounds and absolutely phenomenal soundtrack, I still find Final Fantasy VII to be one of the most atmospheric games ever released. No techno-city has ever been as ruthlessly oppressive as Midgar. I still get chills every time I enter Cosmo Canyon. Nibelheim remains one of the most compelling and memorable "small towns" in RPGs. I can go on-- the location design, world building, and general sense of "place" is simply superb.
I have a lot of fond memories of FF7, but these are easily my fondest. I replay the game often, usually to completion, and a lot of the time it is simply so I can see the sights and hear the sounds again.

Agreed. If they every do a FF7 remake I want it to be the same but with enhanced visuals like what they did with RE1 remake.
you can beat any other ff (take your pick) in the time it takes for the ATB to charge up in 9, too.

The scans. The demo. The wait. The commercials. The reviews.
Even today when I replay Final Fantasy VII I have a great time. My favorite PS1 Final Fantasy game.

I don't like this game AT ALL. Extremely boring to me. I see so much praise though and Ive played a few other FF games through and beat FF13 twice and enjoy that one, so I do plan on beating it some day...
Started a game 4 times now getting as far as the end of disc 1 before quitting. One of my least favorite RPGs. Hopefully one day it does click with me. Maybe it wont. Im hoping for a remake like everyone else nonetheless! Or spin offs. Crisis Core was fantastic.
