I don't get the crash hype... I played the games when I was a kid and I loved them but seriously... Of all the things you could wish for you want crash back?

Do you not want the franchise to be back? because that's what happened when Activision cancelled 2 games back in 2010, that's why people are hyping up for this, even though people shouldn't unless we have Activision doing something about Crash

The problem with an FF7 remake:

Situation 1: Remake identical to the first game with ONLY updated graphics. Combat/menu/gameplay/dialogue text (no voices) remains exactly the same
Result: People continue to complain about the randomized battles, turn system, etc. Also call them lazy for just changing the graphics and not putting in effort to revamp the game itself

Situation 2: Remake with a completely gameplay overhaul as well as a graphical one. Changing the nature of the gameplay requires completely redesigning certain areas.
Result: Nothing Square does will meet expectations people have, and people will blast the new choices.


There is almost no FF7 Remake that could possibly satisfy everyone, it would require walking an extremely thin line between tradition and modernization, and I have zero faith Square would be able to walk that line.

Why not both.gif ? It seems like they could include old school play styles as well as new updated modes.

Maybe someone can help me find a commercial

There was this one commercial that was like 8 mins long and it was detailing the PS1 addons like the PS Mouse, memory card And the some other stuff. It was like something out of a Asian Kung Fu movie. It bugs me a lot

ARGH! I loved this video, it was on one of the demo discs and now you've reminded me of it I've been searching for it to no avail. I remember it had amazing music and was really bizarre, but man the nostalgia from it, IF I COULD FIND IT. Any gafers remember this and maybe have the demo disc it was on to remind us. Must be on YouTube somewhere.
 
Reposting my wild card prediction:

Sony announces new "Playstation Classics Line" going to revive old franchises as PSN games with indies on board. First game will be Crash with a trailer. Then a Powerpoint slide with a bunch of title cards with tentative dates next to them like "Winter 2015", "Spring 2016" etc. with the dev name next to them. Basically every 6 months or so releasing a small PSN title that is either a reboot or remake of old PS franchises.

That's awesome, man! Congratulations. Hopefully they announce FFVII: R for you. =P

They certainly could.

The question is, does anyone trust today's Square Enix to pull that off?

I actually like FFXIII, so... yup!

That would be a neat idea. In the long run Sony can make the next ND with a bunch of these indies. My only worry is the cost of this and Crash deserves to be work on by the originators.

Congratulations! :)

Hope you and your wife have fun, you can probably coax Yoshida and Boyes into getting some serious Playstation swag and a picture with them with that story lol

It worked with Ready at Dawn (started on PSP Daxter) and Double Helix (Killer Instinct)...I gotta imagine both companies have taken notice

That would be grand, but there's about a 0% chance of that happening.

I actually expect something pretty similar to this, made by indie developers. I think if Crash came back t would be higher profile, though.
 
Bringing Crash back would be too good to be true. I really doubt Sony is going to do this. The planets would need to be perfectly aligned.

-The Gameplay needs definetely a Change. Its outdated for todays standards.
But still it has to be a party turn based combat in the core. Make it just faster and more modern (this will be the hardest task)

-Graphic? Complete overhaul with the Luminous Engine --> Advent Children Style.
The Charme and the humour will get lost due to this, but emotions, expressions, atmosphere will get much better.
So while a FF7 Remake wouldnt be as funny as the orginal (they could try adapt new funny scenes which would fit better with modern graphics), the emotions & the story could be delivered far better than the PsX Version

-Music? No Problem. Record the same tracks in better qualitiy

-Characterdesign -> Avent Children probably

-Worlddesign? -> Probably like FF15


People only see the negative things in a Remake - But there are so many aspects of the game that you could improve with todays technology.

Just imagine the Aertih Scene in Luminous Engine....Or Cities like Midgar and places like Gold Saucer in Ps4 Graphics.
 
What's the over/under for the amount of "I'm selling my PS4" threads we'll when there isn't a new Crash or FFVII remake announced after this event?
