If anything, we can hope for FFVII to be ported onto the PSP or be put on PSN. That's where I'd put the most stock at for FFVII. I think FFVII could come to the PS3. I mean, if SE is putting XIII on the PS3, then they obviously can't be that worried about Japanese sales.


I disagree there... I mean they started FF13 back when they thought PS3 was going to be PS2 all over again.  That much can be shown by the fact that they actually could make the FF7 tech demo.

There is basically no way for them to back out of it.

Personally I think FF7 will be PS3 or nothing... which is why I think it will be nothing.

Yet if they did release FF7 this generation it would be wii.

Confusing sounding, I know.  However I think Square knows that FF7 really wouldn't hold up as a straight port, or even as a remake with graphics that weren't top of the line... since the cutscenes are what really wowed most people about 7.

In every other way it's just another Final Fantasy game but a little worse everywhere... furthermore since then FF has advanced it has moved into a new battle system which will make the FF7 battlesystem seem aged and annoying to the majority of the "casual" Final Fantasy RPG fans... aka the ones that basically just buy Final Fantasy.

So without the graphics... it seems like it'd hurt the brand.

However if they just say... screw the brand and want to make a quick buck, they can do a port for the Wii and maximize profit.

Should FF13 DRASTICALLY change things... maybe they'll do a FF7 remake.  I mean afterall they plan to make the FF13 brandname last for years through the various spinoffs.  After FF13V there really won't be anything they'll be working on Final Fantasy wise for the PS3... So i could see them doing that, assuming the PS3 picks up it's numbers a lot in Japan... Afterall the japanese fans are vital to them and they don't want to piss them off by putting the remake on a system that almost nobody in japan has.

I don't see another non MMO FF out till next generation when Square can put it on a system with at least equal graphics to the Ps3 and much better sales.

They could have just stopped development and switched over to the Wii.  I mean, Capcom did it.  And at TGS 07, they said that XIII was only 13 percent complete.  So they couldn't have been too far in development before knowing that the PS3 was not selling astoundingly well, if at TGS 07 (September 07) they were only 13 percent complete.  They could have easily switched consoles like MH3 did, and cut their losses.  The fact that they kept with it shows that they would do the same for FFVII


But that's not really true. They were still probably thinking the PS3 would "dominate" - it was too early. Btw, lol. The 13% thing was fake.

How do we know the 13 percent thing was fake?  Linky?  Cause if it wasn't, I still have a valid point.


Don't you think it was pretty strange FF XIII was 13% finished and FF Versus XIII was 1.3% done? SE is playing you for a fool lol. Also, they had a year+ to work on both. You think in a year they only had 13% finished? Looks like we should expect FF XIII in the next 10 years. And as for Versus...1.3% means they pretty much ONLY have the story. I mean come on, piece it together.

I thought it was ironic, but who am I to question how much they have complete.  But no one knows if they were actually lying or not.  You can speculate that because of the numbers, but it could just be coincidence.  And they could have gotten more people to work on it, thus making it get done faster.  So until someone can prove to me that stament is false, beyond a shadow of a doubt, my argument still stands.
