Nomura - "...we're absolutely not making FFVII remake"

I would rather see final fantasy 8 get a remake then 7. 8 was 1 million times better then that overrated piece of shit. God damn that game was bad.......8 was just so much better in everything 7 stood for. What the **** was the plot in 7 anyway? That was a horrible written game....8 is by far one of the most top 10 gaming experiences i had ever witness in the modern day playstation history. 7, not so much....8 is more realistic then 7 will ever be and the love story between rinhea and squall was just so understanding.

even in this regard..

Remake FFVI only if it was high resolution 2D with big amano potraits as character art whenever there is dialogue.

Do that and I am SquareEnix's bitch forever.

Sorry it'll be a 3D re-make for the DS, i don't know if that can handle dialogue in games mind you.

Looks like I'm not the only one who noticed that odd discrepency. :lol

This post is so bad I can't help but laugh at the stupidity.

It can handle dialogue, the problem is that FFVII would be so huge that there likely wouldn't be any more space to add dialogue.

starts off with an evil corportation stealing planet energy then turns into some shit with a goth kid masturbating with planet energy. to stop all this evilness team anime+furry joins together for one lame assed adventure. for it's time FF7 was visually impressive but that's all it really had going for it. I was LTTP & played it a couple years later. Without the hype i wasn't blind when playing and overall i found the game to be not so good...

I played FF8 a couple years late as well and loved it.
FF8 > FF7

Thank goodness, that means the huge majority of people who bought it and loved it when it hit the bargain bin were also blind.

:lol

Selling PS3s is Sony's problem, just like selling Wiis and 360s are Nintendo's and Microsoft's concerns respectively. Third parties have nothing to gain from helping a struggling platform when they can sell more copies on a successful one instead.

It is not incumbent upon third parties to make games for any console but there is no doubt that the success of a console is often decided by third party support. So it may not be third parties problem but they can be part of the solution. Now of course they're not going to want to support a failing console but the PS3 has been selling at a faster pace than the 360 both in Japan and in America (according to GI magazine) so I don't think S-E should be hesitant to make a PS3 game.:D
 
FFVII for it's time was unlike anything I ever feasted my brain on, and a remake would be fantastic :D I really can't believe that some people think it "sucked".. must of been those pre-pubescent hormones.

Edit: FFVII

GI got their facts wrong. The PS3 has been in last place in the US.
 
Your reading comprehension is whats wrong my friend, GI said at a slightly faster pace than the 360 did in it's first year, obviously the 360 is ahead of the ps3 in overall sales but the 360 has been out for a year longer.
 
Didn't occur to respond to this earlier...

For the already initiated, the only thing FF7 did that was really new was the use of CG.

Ahhh. But the "in its first year" qualifier was missing, so for all I knew, you were referring to the present.

Yes, that must be exactly why people didn't like it.

Couldn't have been the awful magic system, the terrible story, the bad-even-by-the-time's-standards translation, the lego men characters, the stereotype characters, or anything like that.

Nope, something must be wrong with the people that didn't like it, that's the only reason.

I wouldn't say an "awful magic system", sure it wasn't flawlesss. Terrible story? It kept me wanting more. Bad translation and legomen/stereotype characters = part of the reason why certain RPG's stand out for me. You must've been expecting too much. Enjoy it for what it is/was, and that was a damn fine game for it's time.

...are you actually trying to convince me that the reasons I disliked the game are wrong?

Your personal opinion differs gigantically from mine, and millions of others. That is all.

Oh sorry, I see where you could have been mislead, my bad.

Oh and ShockingAlberto thats great you didn't like FFVII, but millions of people did and millions of people want a remake, so whats your big problem with that?

I took issue with this quote

I really can't believe that some people think it "sucked".. must of been those pre-pubescent hormones.

I didn't say "NO ONE ELSE SHOULD LIKE THIS GAME, RARGH". I kinda wish people would stop parroting the "millions of people like it, you're in the minority!" shit at me. I was pointing out that people can dislike the game for reasons other than something's wrong with them because they don't like something you do.

How many arguments could easily be settled if the participants would simply define their terms eh? While you were attempting to show that nothing is wrong with you because you dont like FFVII, the same could be said about the abundance of people who do like the game :)

I watched someone play it. I am pretty sure I fell asleep. I enjoyed Ocarina of time a hell of a lot more. Turn based gameplay seems so boring compared with fights in OOT like Bongo bongo and Twinrova sisters. It still does really. I cant understand the appeal of turnbased when action games are so much more involving to play. I dontl ike to have my fights planned out. I want to go in there fighting, and if I **** up, I die. Thats much harder to do in RPgs.
So yes, there are lots like me who preferred not to jump on the FF7 bandwagon. I liked the story and the characters, but the game can go suck goats for all I care. Hell I even draw the hcaracters sometime, but Ill never bother with the game. The movie was fun though.
 
wow, i pissed off alot of ff7 fanboys......the game is stupid people, get on with your lives.... ff8 fo life bitch

p.s

i fail to see how the gun blade isn't realistic.....how couldn't it be done...:lol :lol i guess you losers just think that its impossible or something.

While a healthy and mature debate is acceptable, you have taken the term ridiculous to new heights. PS3 still on layaway isn't it, or maybe your pudding pit of a brain.

Alberto, that comment was made as an attempt to be "funny" and not as an attack on anyone. I apologize if I offended you in all honesty. Your reasons for not appreciating FFVII are fine, and I have no problem with them. I was just giving my own personal opinion :) Back to Warhawk...

:lol :lol

in all serious though, FF8 is really the unsung gem of the serious imo. it wasnt the best FF game by any means and had its flaws, but if they're going to branch out past FFs into their own franchise FF8's world has the most untapped potential. you could do a lot with the whole seed/witch conflict. plus it seemed like the FF were a lot plot elements sort of drifted off instead of coming to a resolute end. which ended up being a disturbing trend in the series but what can you do

RPGs and action games have different ways of doing things. REALLY GOOD RPGs make you plan out and think through your actions, and are just as engaging as the best action games. Ocarina of Time IMO isn't one of the better examples of more action oriented games though, as many of the boss fights involve repetition over skill.

I agree, with only difference being that I wasn't LTTP, and I still believe the game is awesome.

But it's a perfect game to remake, since it was handicapped by early 3D graphics, and level design. All of this can be fixed with next-gen systems, so the game could be re-invented.

Sadly it's not coming.

We're absolutely not, but if fans want it, never say never

wtf kind of shit is that? go draw another character with 80 million unnecessary buckles and chains and shit on their clothes.

Nomura is the Rob Leifeld of gaming.

That doesnt make any sense. Nomura is at least decent with anatomy compared to rob. The buckles and belts are just clothes design that add some futuristic style and flare to the character. Yoshitaka Amano's work usually has characters with curly hair,lame ass beads,fluffy shit and ribbons but i dont see you guys complaining about that.

The anti nomura bandwagon is the worst.

While I agree with him not being as bad as rob leifeld (because he is really really ****ing bad). The nomura hate is justified, or at least the hate against square for relying on him so much justified. He is making the FF series artistically stagnent.
 
The one thing i dont like about nomura though is that most of the ffs he works on is futuristic. I dont think he can do fantasy as well.

Yes I do like belts!
 
Nomura is my favorite videogame artist. Go ahead and flame me, I dont give a shit.

he is being overused and overworked though.
