Honestly, I don't think an FF7 remake would have any more of a lasting effect on PS3 sales than MGS4 did: that is to say, zero. Most of the FF7 Remake Believers have already bought PS3s, because that's what PS3 and 360 owners are doing this generation: they get a console in anticipation of what they believe will come out, almost like some kind of investment.

Or, to look at it another way, the FF7 Remake has already sold millions of PS3s, and it didn't even have to be released to do it. If selling systems is Sony's and Square-Enix's goal, there is almost no need to spend any more money on it; it's driven almost all the hardware sales it's going to.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
