Title: FF7 - Advent Children for PS2 coming late 2004!!
Post by: Skillster/RedSarg99 on 2003-09-25 13:58:20
Square is finally re-releasing FF7 on the PS2 on DVD
from the magazine scan i got from this site
http://www.gamevolution.it/yabbse/index.php?board=5;action=display;threadid=9075
and ive uploaded it here:
www.skillster.co.uk/ff7ps2.jpg
Looks like all the FMV has been reworked
Sugoi desu!

I remember Nori saying in a post once, something along the lines of how reports in Japanese gaming mags were often exaggerated, or false (in the thread with the supposed "FF7-2" images).

Is there anything official on this? It looks pretty damn good...  :)

i understand ur caution
but it is from a japanese magazine and there is valid FMV screens,
with ur typical Squaresoft "far east asian look" main character there.
It comes in line with Squaresoft's OFFICIAL rerelease of Front Mission: Gun Hazard on to the PSX (from SNES), and Front Mission 4 onto the PS2.

The chinese characters read

"Completely Remade DVD Arrives!"

But that's pretty much all I can read since there's not enough kanji on the page.

P.S. - It's most likely going to be movie since this page says so :P
http://www.the-magicbox.com/game092503a.htm


And I do mean kanji because I kanji characters are Chinese characters and I can only read Chinese characters.

Post by: Skillster/RedSarg99 on 2003-09-25 15:10:28
u mean theres too much kanji, and not enough kana (katakana, hirgana) characters,
I know if there was more katakana I d have worked some of it out myself :)
btw, i see the bottom shot (showing shep after killing aeris)*spoiler there*
says about the original that was released in 1997. and something about 300 millions copies sold? (just guessing that one)
Maybe they put that there as a comparison, the new version is different even in the field screens?

It's 3 million. The character after the 300 means "10000"....

Besides if it's 300 million copies.... that'd be a real record.... wouldn't it?

Post by: Skillster/RedSarg99 on 2003-09-25 15:26:54
ok not 300 million then
saint: theres nothing but an add there :P
btw: notice at the bottom of the picture it does only say DVD and not PS2, and the source looks to be Shonen Weekly, which if im correct is a reliable source.
Having a film names FF7 would drag any FF critic to the cinemas :)

The page doesn't say much in the ways of facts, only things about it being a big thing, and how they think of it as a must-see. Also something about completely original image software? The yellow text in the middle says "See the very latest images beyond the game!" (as in what happened afterwards). MagicBox's info about it being a movie seems quite correct.

PS. I hate Japanese journalism.

man i've just heard about this today...(they're talking about it on the polycount boards) enough to warrant a return to the "FF7 Qhimm forum flock" after a few months "tenure"....good to be back...this is something to look out for...i just hope it's a game...and not a movie....

anyone notice how Cloud's new outfit resembles Aurons?

(http://www.the-magicbox.com/Sep03/ff721.jpg)

and what's this about Squaresofts "far east asian" looks? Cloud looks like your typical prettyboy caucasian to me....nothing like "oriental mix" Tidus of FFX fame..
Title: FF7 - Advent Children for PS2 coming late 2004!!
Post by: Skillster/RedSarg99 on 2003-09-25 21:44:17
tidus did look alittle more western then cloud does
comparing cloud to the FF7 psx fmv and to cloud n Kingdom hearts where he really did look the part (except for that flourescent blond hair)
Title: FF7 - Advent Children for PS2 coming late 2004!!
Post by: Rubicant_II on 2003-09-25 23:39:02
You're right, Giffen. The picture of him standing on the beach or whatever really reminded me of auron. The way he was holding his sword, mostly, though.

Post by: ShinRa Inc on 2003-09-26 00:47:43
from what i've discerned, it will be a released DVD, set two years after the game, not a game, and not a remake.  if it will be a feature length movie, or what, i haven't heard yet.

btw, sephiroth now looks like a chick.  And Cloud looks more asian than he did in any of the games to date.  Also, his buster sword seems to have been shrunk

i just hope Barret, Tifa and the others make it to this "upgrade" movie, game or not....man, can't wait for their realistic renditions.....Vincent would probably look soooo damn cool!! Unless he's not included coz he was an easter egg in the 1st game.... -_-

p.s.
Title: FF7 - Advent Children for PS2 coming late 2004!!
Post by: Skillster/RedSarg99 on 2003-09-26 10:43:27
im seriously doubting its a movie based after the game.
why?
The clips shown are similar to those from the game:
Cloud looking at midgar (which wont exist after the game)
- similar to the scene when he arrives at midgar after Zack is killed
Sephiroth in the fire
- come on, the flash back scene in nebilheim (*speeling)
dont recognise the rest

Damn, you know what?  They've been holding on to these titles for quite a while, and seems like they're going to have continuous sales.  First FFXI is due this october, after that it's going to be KH2 and the other KH game, then FFVII:AC, then FF12.  Yeah, they're going to earn bank in the next 2-3 years.

Edit:  Cadberry: Yeah, I know they're going to be making bank, but lately (as of the past 2-3 years) they haven't released many games.  It's like they decided, "well, let's have all these games ready to sell almost at the same time", and BAMM, an avalanche of money.

I guess we're letting the oversized avatar policy (http://forums.qhimm.com/viewtopic.php?t=2323) slide now. It's a decent avatar, a little big, but the whole oversized avatar policy now seems like it was just a bicycle built for two. At least it's not a picture of a sex offender...unless..  :P

Since this thing seems like it's a movie (or by dvd they meant ps2 game), I hope it won't bomb like spirits within. Maybe it's a cinematical representation of the game  :D

Well I still find his avatar disturbingly large, and I've messaged him about it... I wanted to give him the chance to voluntarily reduce its size, but if it stays like this... *chop*  :wink:

Post by: KojiroTakenashi on 2003-09-26 23:29:38
It can't possibly take place after the game. The Makou gun is still attached to that port town!
Title: FF7 - Advent Children for PS2 coming late 2004!!
Post by: Rubicant_II on 2003-09-27 00:06:03
Junon...yeah, it does lose the gun in ff7. But, I think that in the picture is cloud standing next to the ruined Midgar, with the sister ray still hooked up to it. It seems that the midgar tower is tipped over. But still, I don't remember Midgar being that close to the water. Being that close to the water you'd think it's Junon, but it doesn't really seem like it  :-?

Of course, I don't think we can really get a clear picture of what this is supposed to be until a real press release. I don't think we're entitled to trust the word of these "little birds" that get tidbits of information...perhaps incorrectly.

Post by: Contra on 2003-09-27 02:12:35
That Midgar looks very much like Midgar - 500 years later, as seen in the after-credits movie with Nanaki and his cubs. Sinking onto the ocean, tower trashed, all that. *nods*

and i never changed my original cloud avatar (from the same artist BTW (http://www.saiyanchild.cjb.net)) since the beginning of this new fourm
BTW that seaside town has something sticking out, but its neither midgar nor is it junon, as either town has an uppper plateau and a lower level as well, here we only see one mismatch on the coast front

I'm guessing that's the same (11.5MB LQ) cam I just got off Suprnova (that links dead).

Looks kinda cool. If it's Sephiroth, I don't like his hair, it looked better with the little spikes at the front. The video's appears to be set in the destroyed Midgar, dunno about that tower at the beginning though.

Not sure if this image is in any of the links posted, but it's pretty cool.
http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/game/docs/20030926/se08.jpg

I 'heard' it's gonna be set two years after FFVII, and that it's being released straight to DVD due to The Spirits Within's lack of support.
Also, it's out sometime next year. Let's hope it's true.

You know what I reallized from the above article?  I think Square may be releasing a remake of FFVII with current graphics.  Just think about it, they are releasing a movie with characters that don't look exactly the way they were in the game.    A lot of people have been wanting to have the master piece that FFVII is into a game that takes advantage of today's graphics, and make it more extended with things they may have missed in the previous game (since it was rushed (and NO, I hope they don't make an Aeris revival quest, yuck :x )).  

This would sell probably as much as the first one, if only they would let the story line intact.  However, if this was to happen, then they should release it before this movie comes out.  Who knows, maybe they've really been working on it secretely.

Edit:  Plus, there are new people that play FF games and haven't played FFVII.
Title: FF7 - Advent Children for PS2 coming late 2004!!
Post by: Rubicant_II on 2003-09-30 08:08:34
Doubt they'll be releasing this theoretical remake on the pc.... -_-
Title: FF7 - Advent Children for PS2 coming late 2004!!
Post by: Skillster/RedSarg99 on 2003-09-30 08:38:20
True, Square are money minded, but their policy is if it worked dont touch it.
FF7 was a success no matter what ever anyone said, it revolutionised the RPG industry and the FF series altogether, and maybe be lacking a plot compared to older FFs and interaction of the characters as in newer FFs, but it has the right blend that has you chasing jenova and sephiroth time and time again.
They have said remaking the game would be too easy
And making a simple movie would be abit empty.
So expect it to be bundled with something? like FF11 international, KH2 or something (i think FF12 is too far off).

Since this is 2 years after the game, Shin-Ra doesn't exist anymore.  Therefore all reactors may be in that state.  So it can be anywhere.

Wahey, a new trailer! This one's a cam too.

Don't be fooled by it's intro, it starts with FF7's ending scene, before going into the film. I've only previewed it (still downloading) so no review here.

Here's the torrent.
FFVII - AC Trailer (43.5MB) (http://www.emptylogic.com/suprnova/torrents/371/FF7%20-%20Advent%20Children%20Trailer-mpeg.torrent)

I'd upload it somewhere for you guys, but I haven't got any webspace available at the moment. If you have an account your willing to let me upload to, PM me.

Edit: Just watched it. There's a part where Cloud is on the beach, and he looks so much like a blend between Tidus and Auron.
Also, there's a

I know that there are things in Japan that are from american culture.. and vice versa.. Its kinda weird how so many want to change cultures or something.. just goes to show the grass is always greener..

Well unless it's actually a full length movie.. what's the point of buying this?
I enjoy the game play not being spoon fed, I think they did this simply because 'they can' and anything that says FF7 on it is quite sellable. In my view Squaresoft has sucked since the release of FF9 (which I am not a big fan of it's not bad but just not the quality of even FF8 and no where near FF7 which suffered like Xenogears from budget pruning strategies.).

Since Chron Cross most things square soft have been poor releases compared to there prior ones. FF10 was a better than Ff9 but .. not that much better. I think they are going into 'content' production instead of what the company originally made there bread and butter on which was 'game'.  

It smacks me all too much of hollyweird and all those movies with cool special affects and no plot.  Which I hated and refused to watch.

Anyhow I'm not interested in a movie a game I would be, but not another damn Squaresoft movie.

Enix has made several english RPG's see Star Ocean: The Second Story ;)

I think the company leadership might be the problem, namely knowing what to do and what's important. I don't think COOL images makes the game, I think the game makes the game, cool images just reinforce the plot line.

Xenosaga fits this, I don't know how many people Like that game but I love it myself.
It's got a lot of cut scenes which I don't mind (though it does get anoying at times), as long as it pushes the plot along :)

this DvD is about an hour long... not sure if that counts as a movie, or if you just want the story

I see the irony, Robert.

Your posts seem to be a little loaded with fibs, seph2000. I mean, you didn't really follow up well with the help I was giving you back in the topic where you were having problems with the ff7 movies. You said you tried it..."sort of". I just don't think people can take your posts seriously anymore considering people were thinking of you as a random spammer.
