it's ok, you're all right now
Where are you guys even looking for info? :lol

This reminds me of the pre-E3 Killzone 2 thread. About 20 pages of nothingness then POW. I wonder if that will happen here?

One thing I completely don't understand is why a remake of FFVII would be such a big deal. I don't enjoy replaying games I have already beaten.

Same, I just don't get why a FFVII remake is more important to some than any future, new FF games. It's like admitting the series will never attain that pinacle again when so many fans of the series splooge at the prospect of a FFVII remake. We're totally oversaturated with FF anyways, and i'm sure thats great if you're one of these types who can't get enough of anything FF related - but personally i'd like SE to show a bit of love towards their non-FF back catalogue once in a while.

I go all-in: Sony are going to announce something that's Square Enix related. Or at least give us new FFXIII pics. They fucking better.

Personally I think that if the Jan 31st date (rumored by 2ch) for White Knight sticks it's pretty damn epic.
Huge online/offline next gen rpg by Level 5 right around the corner. Jesus.

That would actually be very good news. About Jan 31 being the date för White Knight Story, I mean.

Enk: Fear not.

This man asks the right question. When is the keynote? And when does the embargo from this event lift?

That's ok. I just talked with my brother Enlil (Eln for short) and we just realized we're much older than your dad! Christ I was almost scared there for a minute.

how does he use up a years supply? Surely it'd last a year?

Or do you have some kind of Fair Usage Policy and now you're going to throttle his wink usage between 9am-7pm?

Scandalous ;)

Huh? It's 6:26pm, Wednesday in Tokyo right now.

It'd be wise to assume any press reception or whatever this evening is embargoed. But maybe if we're lucky, when it's over, some people will come out and give us a happy smiley or a sad smiley, or something.

I think some people are confusing some things.

The keynote is tomorrow.

But I think some people are saying that there's a press reception/event by Sony on Wednesday evening (aka: now). But I don't know where that came from. If there is such an event, I think it'd be like their pre-GDC event, embargoed until the next day.

I'd like to know where this pre-keynote event came out of too..I know there's a press reception, but last year it was after the keynote. Did some journo mention the event being this evening or something?

The Sony stuff start at 8 Tokyo time, so in a bit more than one hour. It's not a press conference though. The keynote is tomorrow morning.

I don't recall who brought it up first, but it's not far-fetched considering today's packed with media briefings.

:lol at Sony Fans thinking a FF7 remake will "save the PS3" :lol It wont.
Sure it will increase sales for a while, but it will only really appease the diehard FF7 fanboy, you know - the type who swears Advent Children is a good movie :lol

No seriously. For this to happen, Sony will have to bankroll the entire development costs. Otherwise its too risky a move for Square. Secondly development on FF13 will almost certainly be delayed. So what do you fanboys want more? FF7 or FF13?

This remake also wont magically halt sales of Wii and Xbox 360.

The problem with the PS3 was never the lack of a FF7 remake. As soon as Sony address the real problems then the PS3 will succeed.

I'd guess it's like the press thingie they did after the keynote last year. In that it was more about hands-on with games and talking to developers, than news announcements (well, asides from Kutaragi's "you want HDMI in 20GB? You got it!" moment).

syfodyas - I think people are just joking about a FFVII remake. If it were to happen it would be big news, but it's become almost a running joke at this stage.
