There is no reason why it wouldnt be on the 360 as well. SE has favored the 360 all this generation so there is no reason it wouldnt keep going. 3rd exclusives are a thing of the past, everything goes multi-platform.

supported, you mean. But favored is wrong.

OMG are you guys listening to yourselves?

If that was in response to me, then I also said I don't think they hold the rights either.

Nah it was the response to everyone. Seriously it seems like Eidos publishing it doesn't exist, or the fact that every title FF7 related afterwords is published by Square Enix... even the PSN title.

Ok maybe I posted to quickly here they say that Sony has the publishing rights for FFVII related stuff so a remake would be hard to release on another console:

Dont know what to believe. As long as a remake comes I dont care too much.

OMG. IT WILL NOT HAPPEN! Sony has the publishing rights to FFVII and anything FFVII related. I know 360 fans would love to see more M$ moneyhatting , but unless Sony sells those rights, there is absolutely nothing M$ can do.

Damage Control anyone....sony does not own the publishing rights to FFVII since they do not own the IP...only time a publisher owns the rights is when they own the IP for example EA owns Systemshock. You do know that Eidos also published the game.

If you want evidence....Cloud appeared in Kingdom Hearts for the GBAhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_VII
 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_VII http://psx.ign.com/objects/000/000494.html Sony Published it, so it's not going to 360. I am willing to place a nice bet with you on that too. If an FFVII remake goes on 360 in any way shape or form (not spinoff, but main game), I will place a massive sig that says "I LOVE XBOX360 MORE THAN SONY PLAYSTATION 1,2 AND 3 COMBINED". even though I've hated the system since Bill Gates decided to make it so.

Make games, not war (that goes for ridiculous fanboys)

I may be the next Maelstorm or not, you be the judge http://videogamesgrow.blogspot.com/  hopefully I can be more of an asset than a fanboy to VGC hehe.

I wish it would be exclusive so it could make better use of the Bluray and the Hardware.

That should be the case for a remake for not appearing on the xbox 360 (thinks back to the tech demo).

See the problem with the bet, is it might not go to 360 due to limitations of the specs on the 360. For me it would be the same bet as if Final Fantasy 13 or Final Fantasy 13 V went to the 360. I am not going to make a bet based on whatever that CEO decides because that guy is messed up, but a publisher does not always hold rights to the IP is my point.

That should be the case for a remake for not appearing on the xbox 360. If a remake happens, its quite likely that they shall use the playstation 3's capabilities to make the intro real time, much like the tech demo. You can't do that on the xbox 360.


makes sense

I think this just about explains it 

In December 1996, Sony Computer Entertainment America agreed to a multi-title publishing dealwith Square Co. Ltd., allowing the company full North American publishing and distribution rights to Square's PlayStation product line. Along with the rights to publish the revolutionary Final Fantasy VII, Sony Computer Entertainment America has first rights of refusal on four additional PlayStation- exclusive releases, Bushido Blade(TM), Final Fantasy(R)Tactics, SaGa Frontier(TM) and Tobal 2(TM).

They have the publishing rights for the Playstation. That is what allowed Eidos to do it on the PC, and what would allow Microsoft or Square Enix to do it on the 360

That still doesn't prove your case enough.

 

All we can do at this point is wait.

Check the source. It only says that:

"In December 1996, Sony Computer Entertainment America agreed to a multi-title publishing deal with Square Co. Ltd., allowing the company full North American publishing and distribution rights to Square's PlayStation product line. Along with the rights to publish the revolutionary Final Fantasy VII, Sony Computer Entertainment America has first rights of refusal on four additional PlayStation- exclusive releases, Bushido Blade(TM), Final Fantasy(R)Tactics, SaGa Frontier(TM) and Tobal 2(TM)."

I see nothing here that would extend to spinoffs or remakes of those titles: in fact, Tactics has since had its spinoff appear exclusively on a Nintendo platform.

 That only means that the original (console) version is controlled by Sony. That's it: remakes and spinoffs are not included here.
