Sod it. I'm in the UK so this thing starts at 2am and I have to be up at work at 6 but I'm not missing this. I really hope CC2 are making it - it would have far more chance of releasing quickly and won't distract Square too much from their other projects.

look there is no way in hell that TLG AND FF7 will come tonight. Pick one GAF, and prey to the gods of HYPE that this night won't end in a torrent of tears.

In what world would people choose a remake over a new game? (I know perhaps the answer is "this one" but I think if the original was a solidly made game to begin with an original and potentially great game should almost always be more important.)

Shenmue 3 I give some credibility cause the last tweet. But FFVII Remake? Every year the same story... I believe we have some people that even fake some info to keep the fun going every E3, year after year.
Wait... so you give more credibility to a completely innocuous "oh hey look at this thing I found!" tweet (because that's all his tweet said. not teasing, just remarking that he saw a forklift), than several independent media outlets reporting on various different sources?

Are you serious?

The Shenmue rumor is as weak as the 'Silent Hills to Microsoft for billions of dollars' rumor.

Not sure if want. Does SE even have the talent necessary to recreate this?

All you really need to do is just make it pre-rendered and then just put all console's power into character models and battles.

Then it'll just look amazing while feeling like an old FF game.

I completely agree, the Shenmue thing has been horribly misconstrued.

I'm not going to say anything on whether or not its true, just cause i would like to wait and see, but according to some rumors, CC2 could be working on this just like G-bike.

If this is done by CC2, i think its pretty much over and done with, they are going to knock it out of the park.. They are better at cinematography than SE for all of SE's insistence on making movies, and taking that and putting it into a RPG format would be a piece of cake for them if DotHack and G.U. are anything to go by.

Yeah not to be negative but the hype crash is coming. Whether it happens during the reveal itself or upon release remains to be seen. I'm a fan of SE's current output, but I know a lot of people are putting some pretty unrealistic expectations on this one.

Yeah, I have more faith in them, SE japan already seems spread thin so I don't think they'll do it themselves. I really hope CC2 uses their cel-shading engine too like I've said before.

A cel-shaded FF would definitely be a breath of fresh air.
 
It's definitely fair to measure main series numbers based on a PSP HD remaster, literally sold to the public as an XV demo.

Come on.

then what about FF13, where the PS3 Version cleary outsold the Xbox 360 version

Its a fact that most of the FF Fanbase are Playstation Gamers.
And this gen the gap will be even bigger, since the Xbox One is non-existen in Japan with basically no japano games (xbox 360 had many japanese time exclusive in the first years)


Other then that, i can't imagine such a huge & risiky project withouth the help of Sony.

But there's something scary here....

WHAT IF... at the Sony conference, they are preparing FF7 and The Last Guardian....

Honestly, Earth would explode.
