Forums - Gaming - Why An FF7 Remake Wouldn't Be A PS3 Exclusive (Flame Shields At the ready)!

Phoenix_Wiight on 05 March 2009

the only reason I will vote for PS3 only is because of the BS S-E is pulling with giving the 360 a bunch of exclusives, and also taking PS3 exclusives, and then leaving the PS3 with nothing.

Same for KH3 (which should be on the Wii :P)

I do really think that Sony owns the rights or Square feels they are in debt to Sony and need to release them on the PS brand. I mean if not then why would they put Crisis Core on the PSP? Surely it would've sold more on the DS...

Why do you think this, though, that SE fels like it owes Sony something?

@lolita

well S-E can't make a FF7 remake unless FF5, n FF6 ones get done

 bizzarely, this is the reason I would vote for a multi.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

Because they've released all FFVII games on the PS brand. As I said Crisis Core would've probably sold more on the DS, so why did SE make it for the PSP?

That's not true.  There are plenty of Nintendo ones.

What Sony bought when they got FF7 was the "Right of first refusal" for publishing.  It's been mentioned in articles i couldn't find.

Which if that is still the case... would just mean SE could go "FF7 Xbox 360 exlusive do you want to publish"

And basically sony's choice is to publish the game or not.

(If so it means they refused to publish the PC version... which is stupid.)

It did 2 million according to square on the psp so I do not think they made the wrong decision.

Bolded: Of course I know that the FF series started on Nintendo and all that, I was talking about the FFVII franchise, maybe I should've called it universe?

I know it doesn't mean you own the rights just because you publish a game, but I still find it weird that they have made all FFVII's for the PS brand.

I don't think it was that odd.  I mean the only "unexplainable" one is Crisis Core really.

People like to blame MS for it.  Why couldn't Sony have "moneyhatted" it.

Or they just saw monster hunter could move PSPs and decided to role with it.

I mean if you look at the descriptions of the deal they signed it was basically the rights of first refusal for FF7, Final Fantasty Tactics and two other games.  I wanna say Bushido Blade was one of them.

So Square Enix decides to bring FF XIII to the 360 as well
Decides to bring its biggest Japanese franchise to Wii.
Brings Star Ocean 4 to 360.
And won't have any game for the PS3 even after 3 years.

Yet people think that FF7, their biggest franchise by far, actually has the slightest chance of being exclusively on PS3...


Next gen DS2 or PSP2.
