Final Fantasy 7 is a game many have loved and still hold fond memories of to this day. I remember playing the game back in 2001 back when I was in middle school on the PS2 because many of my friends kept talking about it. I've beaten the game many times since then and was even a big enough fan to buy the movie years later. However I never beat the game 100%. If you've played the game then I bet you've already guess that I didn't kill Ruby and Emerald Weapon.
Anyway if you watched enough video game news you'd know that back in 2005 Sony release demo video of an updated opening of FFVII to show off the power of the PS3. Since then there have been many rumors and demands of a remake/update to the game with improved graphics and a better score. The waves of new FFVII merchandise has only added to the flames of this rumors and demands. Yet Square has told the public that a remake would take up too much time and wouldn't be worth it, even though there is a high chance that many fans would buy the game just to see the updates. So as already asked in the poll, would you buy a remake of Final Fantasy VII? If so why? If not why? If maybe why? Do you even want them to remake/update the game?
Me, I know this may seem like blasphemy since I am a fan but I honestly hope they don't remake/update Final Fantasy VII. Why you ask? Because I know there is a 80% chance I'd buy it. For me not to buy a remake/update square would really have to F*** the game up. A f*** up like Final Fantasy 13 was (Oh yes I said it). Now I know Final Fantasy 7 has it issues story wise. I don't know of any person who didn't make fun of the long hours eating unskippable story times where you couldn't even save the game for a long time. Also there was the whole Emo and angst (I'm never going to understand that word) thing. Yet I still loved the story enough to play it and I'd play it again if it was remade/updated without messing it up on an epic scale. So in short... I'm a cheap bastard who doesn't want to shell out the money for a game I've already played before. Not to mention if they only released it on the PS3... I'd have no choice but to buy one... even though any time I have a good deal of money my dad has told me to get one.
*SPOILER ALERT! FOR THOSE THAT HAVEN'T PLAYED FFVII!*
I know some of you may be wondering... then again maybe not. But I felt I should just say this now. I was told of Aeris' death before I even rented the game for the first time. So when she ended up dieing, I didn't really care. Unlike one former friend of mine who had to find out the hard way after training her all the way up until that point. I don't know if he cried or not, but I know he was mad as hell about it.
*SPOILERS END!*
EDIT:
I forgot to add this video for those who might care.
