true, 9 was a good game.
It wasn't VII, VIII or Vagrant Story.
But it was a good game.. I'm happy with the thought that SE has already mentioned VIII as ideal for a VII type remake if they were to do another.
The rumoured small budget remake for IX is good enough for what it is..
Guys, do not expect a game announcement this year. I don't think this game is ready yet. And even if it does get announced, it will likely be a Sony State of Play, not a random announcement drop.
