[QUOTE="hellscovern"][QUOTE="knicknut17"]IF Square Enix were to ever remake Final Fantasy VII, then with all due respect to Nintendo and Microsoft, this console war is OVER.
Millions of people, myself included, vividly remember Final Fantasy VII. It stands as one of the best gaming experiences I have ever had; on any console. It didn't have the best graphics or music or story; it simply had all of the intangibles that make a good game great and a great game, legendary. Obviously it had the most memorable set of characters, the most nefarious villian (although Kefka from FF VI can make a very valid claim to that title), amazing CGI scenes, and the most shocking plot twist of all the Final Fantasy games...
Final Fantasy VII holds a special place in our (FF fans) hearts because it is memorable. It is a game whose characters and whose story stay in your heart long after you beat it. It brought Final Fantasy into the 3-D generation and did it in a way that will never be forgotten. It is a shame that many younger gamers have never had the opportunity to play this masterpiece.
That said, Final Fantasy VII should obviously be re-released to the public if only for the reason that it makes perfect business sense. I DON'T want to see the story changed at all. I DON'T want to see the characters re-drawn Final Fantasy Advent Children style (realistic). I like the cartoony look to the characters. Maybe they can touch up the models to look good in HD...I would like to see them use the power of the PS3 to revamp the environments. Please DO NOT change the music!
At the very least, I think Square Enix should offer the original Final Fantasy VII with enhanced HD models for download on the PlayStation Network once they have completed Final Fantasy XIII. It would be a game that millions of PS3 and PSP users would buy.
Let todays kids experience this magnificant game. Let them understand that a good game doesn't have to have loads of violence in it. Let them understand the importance of a good story and a memorable set of characters. Introduce them to the beauty of the genre of gaming that is RPG.

So your saying that the FFVII tech demo was crap because that featured the advent children character models.. it was the fact that the demo featured them that was the most exciting part for many FF fans including myself and i have been a fan of the series since the start.. i agree the story and music should be left alone although they could improve the Music and audio quality, but i see no problem in having the quality that the tech demo showed in the character models and that goes for backgrounds and the summons as well you can only imagine how Knights of the round, ifrit etc would look.
QFT. There is absolutely no point in doing a remake if all theyre gonna do is tweak the original character models. If thisg ame is remade, it will be done from the ground up. Using the original material, in Advent Children Style.
I like the cartoonish models more than the advent children ones.
