Final Fantasy VII-2

according to CVG Yoshinori Kitase told interviewers at E3 it could happen depending if the timing and economy are right

What do you all think about FF7-2 if youve been a long time fan, id have to say Final Fantasy 7 is one of my favorites, i think they did alot with it already giving it a CG movie, then developing crisis core, personally id like to see a CG remake of FF7 not sure what they could add to an FF7-2

Isn't Crisis Core FFVII technically FFVII-2?Black_Knight_00

Not a bright idea. Final Fantasy VII is fine for what it is...no need to expand it. Besides, Advent Children, I'd like to think, is a sequel, even if it's in a movie format. Doesn't need to be given a sequel at all, as far as gaming goes.

Right now I'll take JRPGs in just about any form I can get them.DarkCatalyst

First, Kingdom Hearts 3.BranKetra

FFXIII Versus Forever first and if they have to do it, they need better director and producer.

It would take them forever to release it, but yeah let's hope so :p

Before DoC or after?

i want ff 7 REMAKE not ff 7-2 enough with the spinoffs

Can we PLEASE get a new game referencing VIII? I've been waiting for so darn long.

Actually,that's a much better idea than a remake.

That's what i wanted!

FFVII-2!

A true RPG sequel,set like 5 years after Dirge of Cerberus.

With new gameplay,and the return of Sephiroth.

And maaaybe,the all awaited resurection of Aerith! :D

Advent Children was kind of VII-2, obviously not a game but it carried on the story.

JRPGs and NHL... you're my favorite person ever. :o

I would like FFVI, FFVII, and FFIX remade for current-gen consoles (FFVIII can stay away) instead of some sequel.

If anything I want to see a VII remake. A sequel, if not done properly could taint the good memories of the original. Going by XIII's linearity issue I would just dread if VII-2 was similiar. Personally I dont even like the idea of making FF sequels.

Apart from Crisis Core, every spin-off to VII was horrible in my opinion. Wouldn't a remake sell more from a business perspective anyway?

If they remade 7 we would whats going to happen, making the story and characters uninteresting which is one of the biggest reasons why its so special.

I would rather see a reboot or a true sequel, but i certainly wouldnt complain if they did remake it.

Square Enix is full of ifs, maybes, and excuses about trying to make good RPGs anymore. People clamor for the classics but get PS3 downloads at best. The RPG die-hards get drek like FFXIII. It's an abomination.

Same world, same characters, just different things happen.

Or play as Sephiroth and instead of seeing things through Cloud in Co you see what Sephiorth was doing the whole time.

I just wouldnt want to know exactly whats going to happen next.

I would totally play a FFX prequel with Jecht, Auron, and Braska.

Just saying. :o

That I would love to see myself. We only heard bits and pieces of the story between those three in FFX, right? Not sure about FFX-2 though, but that would have been a nice adventure to go through! :D

How about new IPs instead of rehashing medicore gaming history? It's bad enough that we already have the HD remastering scam picking up steam, we don't need this.

I hope that if they remake FF7, they'll actually make it a good game this time. I really wanted to like FF7 but after disc 1, playing it felt like I was punishing myself for no good reason. Cloud in a wheelchair + a poorly-handled amnesia plot device + Sephiroth not accomplishing his goal like Kefka did = a very lackluster 2nd and 3rd disc.

Square Enix has been selling the game that they will never give to us. They've done almost everything they could with the FFVII world except make a remake of the original game. Honestly, I don't think they need to revisit FFVII at all. Instead, they need to create a game that will give us similar nostalgia to what VII (mostly X for me) gave us. If they continue to make FF games like XIII, then that will never happen.

I never really understood the praise for VI.

I'm playing it for the first time right now, and sometimes I go weeks without playing it.

It really doesn't grab me or have an impact on me so far.

Many of the characters I don't like.

I agree actually. I didn't care for the characters either, and I too found the game pretty slow intially. But as I chugged into the later part of the game, I honestly couldn't stop playing it. Plot wise, I got to say FF6 has the better plot than ff7, it just takes forever to get to interesting.

That was my friend's excuse for XIII. :P

After subjecting myself to Advent Children, I would have to go with "bad idea." I'd rather have FFXV.

If the timing and economy is right?

Square Enix just needs a serious kick in the butt. They've been putting out terrible, lackluster games for years now with only a few bright spots to their name. Making new and original games is a great idea when they succeed, but with all of their recent failures it would only make sense that they go back to the series and games that fans have been clamoring for. They are business and as such they should be interested in making a profit as well as expressing their artistic ideals. Fans want a Final Fantasy VII remake (or FFVI for myself), they want a new Chrono Trigger, they want Kingdom Hearts 3, and they want a Final Fantasy Tactics that is like the original and not like the Advanced series.

My sincere wonder is what is stopping them from doing these things. When you have guaranteed sales in the millions for these titles, why would you hold off making them and continue to work on new and unsuccessful IP's or sequels?

But how does it play?DarkCatalyst

Also, excellent soundtrack. Up there with Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Final Fantasy Tactics, and Donkey Kong Country 2, I'd say.
