Europe got it first! before the US ...And it isn't even out here anywhere I've looked. Weird.

Okay, seems it's out of stock in UK Game stores.

Anyway, I tried out the rom, and er, lost a guy in the tutorial and was gonna reset but I might just go out and buy the game.

This is where I would put an oversized pic of something stupid with the word 'phail' (look at that! it's not spelled right, isn't that hip?) under it and a big black boarder. :) Do you lose leveling at all if you skip the tutorial? I don't think I've ever not (double negative...>_>)...

Alundra. How many of you have actually played this gem?

I've actually barely even heard of it...What system was it on...?

Same here. The worst part? There's another game to wait for first.

(Not that V's bad or anything, I like it and will love seeing Gilgamesh in 3D, but VI speaks for itself when I say it needs a DS remake)

D'you think they can remake FF7 (the original) for PS3 without ruining the game?

I doubt it. I was actually hoping they'd rerelease that game on the Virtual Console equivalent on PS3, or PSP. I have neither system, so im not  entirely sure how they work, though.

I'm all retro gamer, and could honestly care less about graphics
(Cross better have understandable graphics, at least.)

My newest addiction: Lords of Creation

Its a forum game (on a different forum, obviously), great fun, and utterly addictive (hence why I haven't been around much as of late).

They could if I was calling the shots. Since that's obviously not going to happen then no, they can't remake FFVII without ruining it.

Do you think they ruined CT by making CTDS? My brother thinks so, or used to think so.

The Avalon Hill game? Well if it is you have good taste, they have never made a bad game that I recall.

The entire original game is kept, the script is polished, and new areas and items are included. Although the Dalton/shade thing could've been executed a little better, I can't see what's wrong with CTDS.

I believe it will be done eventually possibly after FFXIII. SE is a sucker for easy money. I don't think that they would ruin it. They know it's a huge franchise and that they would be under scrutiny for any changes they make. That could possibly be the reason why we don't have a remake of it yet.

I'd say they'll do it after VI, logically.

I think they can skip FFV DS & go directly to FFVI DS without too many people complaining...:lol:

Since I didn't even really like VII, anything they change could only make it better...I enjoyed AC (didn't play BC~DoC though), after all...Anyways, though VII is easily the best candidate for a PS3 remake, being the most popular, I highly doubt even that will happen...I just don't know how cost-effective a current gen home console remake would be...A PSP remake/enhanced port though I could definitely see happening...I think they should do that will a lot of their PSX games, really...Heck, I bet they could even use some of the 3D models & such from Crisis Core in a PSP remake easy peasy...

No.

Tetsuya Nomura seems to be a whore for his fangirls and Gackt. I don't want to see one of my favorite games turned into a catastrophe like Crisis Core.
