GAF I mistakenly made time for a family/friend BBQ during the Sony Conference. (i'm moving to seattle at the end of the week, so hurrah)

What have I done.

Any idea who will likely upload the conference by the end of the night?

PSBlog EU guy said the conference should be up on youtube in a few hours after it ends.

I don't think FFVIII:R power is as strong as everybody thinks

I think you mean VII.
It is exactly as strong as everybody thinks and it's not an opinion, just by definition. It might not be as strong as vocal fans make it sound, but when you take everybody into account and quantify their demand it's the next best thing to actual sales to gauge the potential.

It's funny how not-random the searches are. When my mother worked out of the country every time I flew anywhere I got 'randomly searched.' I didn't even live with her or in her house yet every single time I flew I got searched. The minute she stopped working overseas the 'random searches' stopped. haha

The Border guys has a prismatic view to these things :)
 
I said this a little more in-depth before, but I don't think remaking Final Fantasy VII would be as easy as people think.

It'd surely sell, but they have to do it right or risk tarnishing that brand and game to some extent. Just think about the pressure in finding a voice actor for Cloud. Somebody would have to be a voice for Cloud after all these years, officially (no Advent Childrent bullshit). That's a ton of pressure. They would also have to balance what they do with the battle systems, the graphics, the music, etc.

Recreating almost everything in one of the most beloved and followed games of all time is no easy task in reality. I haven't played FF VII, but think about this: (FF VII SPOILERS)
the Aeris death scene. They have to recreate that completely, with VO and all.
Try and think about that. One of the most iconic scenes in gaming would have to be figured out and recreated in a proper way for 2014. That's fucking hard to try and do. That is pressure. A shitty Final Fantasy or three is bad, but not as bad as the possibility of screwing up FF VII and messing with all those fans and adoration.
 
Why the hell do people want a FFVII R? You can play the game on PS3, PSP, Vita right now. Why not just let square make something new again, creating that magic feeling all over again instead of just reliving them?

XV/Versus. We've waited too long. Plus I don't have complete faith in a VI:R being good enough to how I'd want it to be.
 
Does anyone know where this conferance will be up after its done? Are these conferences usually up on Youtube etc. very quickly after they are done? I wont be able to watch it live, but i want to watch it the next morning.

Because that fucking PS3 tech demo existed and made people want to see the game in current gen graphics :C

it is definitely not as easy as people think but at the same time it's probably easier than creating a new game. But it would probably take the same amount of resources. So yeah an FF7 remake would mean no new FF for a long time. Still worth it IMO.

I don't think voice acting is necessary in the remake at all though.

They would have to use the Advent Children VA - he's done Cloud in every other game afaik. I know he was Cloud in Kingdom Hearts and Crisis Core. In fact, I'd be kinda mad if they changed the VA because I've gotten used to his voice being that.

EDIT: Also, he was Cloud in Dissidia. I can't see them changing that VA if they ever did remake it.
 
Isn't there an HD collection of KH coming for PS3 soon? Should I pick that up? I've always been interested but never took the plunge. Are they RPG's or what?

I agree, it would be difficult, and SE has said as much (beyond HD towns are hard, but creatively). But the original game has aged poorly, and has little hope of capturing the imagination of new gamers for much longer. It won't be a brand forever, and they've already done one round of milking. If they want another, they'll have to do something.

Something on smartphones/tablets most likely, but something.

They're action RPGs, if you've seen the latest Versus trailer, they're very similar to that.
 
Dream game line up:

Destiny (with exclusive content; obvious)
Fallout 4 (in Austin)
Dragon Quest VIII HD (favorite RPG of all time)
Jak 4 (PLOX Naughty Dog)
new IP from Naughty Dog
The Last Guardian (when can I has?)
The Last Of Us PS4 port (from what I've heard, it's amazing)
The Walking Dead season 2 (has this been confirmed yet?)
Minecraft Playstation 4 Edition (I think it's time, I put well over 200 hours into xbox version)
and that's all I can think of off the top of my head.
EDIT: lol, forgot Kingdom Hearts 3
 
1.5mil views and over 19k post, it's been a fun ride everyone, But tomorrow the real show begins, be it good or bad.
 
there's no way a final fantasy vii remake would be any good

part of the game's charm was how emblematic it was of 90s game design culture in japan
 
Zoator said:
Well, Nomura did say that the next time we see Versus, it will be controlled on actual hardware.

However, that information is about 1.5 years old at this point, so who knows.

If it's really on the PS4 now, then it had to have been in development for quite awhile before then. I'm actually curious as to how much of an upgrade visually it's received.

They're ARPG's. Real-time combat engines but with RPG elements. And the KH collection is supposed to be among the best. I believe Kagari said that it had 4xMSAA, so it has an extremely clean image quality.

perhaps, but the tech demo they showed made me tingly and made me want to replay it in those graphics. I think it would be amazing for people who played the game in the 90s to get to play it again with those types of graphics. The only people who lose out are those who never played it in the 90s and the remake is their first time. They may not "get" it, but even for them it'd probably be better than most shit out.
 
New thread better be up before the Sony conference starts. This thread might be locked down early tomorrow with the pace its reaching 20K.
