Tokyo Game Show: Will a Final Fantasy VII remake for PS3 be revealed?
By Danny Mendez
The latest issue of Famitsu reveals that the long awaited Final Fantasy VII remake for Playstation 3 may be announced at this year’s Tokyo Game Show.
According to PSPSPS, Famitsu got the chance to interview several Square Enix staff members including executive producer Yoshinori Kitase, producer Hideki Imaizumi, director Hajime Tabata, and character designer Tetsuya Nomura. They discussed, among other topics, Crisis Core for the PSP, which happens to fill up an entire UMD, and future Square Enix projects.
When the topic of a Final Fantasy VII remake was brought up, they mentioned that the issue with the game is timing but that they are planning to announce a secret new game at this year’s Tokyo Game Show. It’s definitely not Kingdom Hearts III because that game was already announced to be unveiled at the show.
If a FFVII remake was introduced, there’s no doubt that PS3 sales would skyrocket especially if Sony were to announce a price drop on their 80GB PS3. If Sony and Square Enix know what’s good for them, they’d better get that remake out the door.
And if Capcom knows what’s good for itself, it better get the next Marvel vs. Capcom out the door as well! When are these companies going to start listening what customers want?

future of sega lol stop talkin shit! dont hate coz sony muscled sega out. even tho the dreamcast was a good console.
if their is ever gona be a remake which i think their is then sony have ALOT less to wory about. PS3 will be selling like hot cakes. I think square enix has not said anything about it yet because they dont want to ruin FFXII and VS by announcing FFVII. that will just downplay the hype of the other 2. so its probly smart they dont say anything as yet. but i want an announcment ASAP! FFVII for me was the best game iv ever played and i aint even much of a fan of RPG’s.

The real reason why the PS3 launched with out rumble is because patent issues. Microsoft was also sued, but quickly settled the suit and bought shares of the company in the process. Monopoly? Again Sega you are misinformed and ignorant…
I can only hope that the rumors are true. If they are I can only imagine that the game will not actually be ready for a few more years at least.
