I tried to download the ff7 high res mod but my virus scanner says it has both a trojan and a malware in it...
(http://www.gzanime.net/index.php?gz=dl&name=ff7). Is this a false alert or is this the wrong site? Hope I'm not going too much off topic here.

Think it's false report, i had that too, sent to quarantine and had the files released. If you AV doesn't have a quarantine you should consider a change of AV.

If you have quarantine use it first, and then if nothing happens during monitoring, use it.

Personally I don't use HigRes cuz I don't like it.

1up brings up a good reason FF7 remake wouldn't work; Square Enix blows. It was SquareSOFT that made all their good games. If Square Enix remade FF7, don't you think they'd remove all the good parts and replace it with the linear design, bland and emo characters, and excessive cutscenes?

If it was like DeusEx HR, I would laugh, cuz that's the only thing you can do in those situations.

I think even if it cost more to remake FFVII, the profits would still be more than enough to make up. FFVII is one of my least favorite of the FF series, but I would still camp out at night and shove the 60$ for a copy of a remake of FFVII.

As for the "remaster" of FFX that is my favorite of the series and I cant wait for it to come out.

I've played the advanced versions of FF1-5 on the DS and PSP, they made the game play more solid and enjoyable, along with the graphic shift. That's why I think it's a good idea.

I still think that FF7 only needs a re-work on the legit resolution and make it work on high end system where the minigames don't flash by all the time (minimum 5 mins of real game) in 10 seconds ...

I mean, the bike highway thing is so fast I don't even swing sword, I had high HP for the occasion so I just got through lol.

...you realize that every FF game has been linear, had emo characters and a lot of cutscenes right? and squaresoft has made every main FF game up to X-2, so I assume you're just one of the bandwagon fgts that decided 13 is the root of all evil?

are you emulating the ps1 version? cuz emulators have fps limiters for a reason

Havoc10K · « **Reply #89 on:** March 07, 2012, 10:16:43 AM »

No, i'm playing the PC version on Win7x64 pro.

The game sometimes crashes, slows down for no reason, etc.

And the unofficial resolution patch is not so good.

SilverDash · « **Reply #90 on:** March 07, 2012, 12:22:54 PM »

I have no problems with FF7 on WinXP. Haven't played a minigame yet but a cpu slower might help. But I suppose you already tried that. I also think that WinXP has a better chance than the higher versions. Alternatively you could perhaps try a vmware machine + windows 95 or something and assign a low processor and ram value to it

Let's get back on topic. Way too few posts above mine are about the re-mastering of Final Fantasy X. If I don't say it, blubart probably will as he just did the same thing in the ME3 thread.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #92 on:** March 07, 2012, 02:25:42 PM »

Remastering a game that doesn't need it ...
meh.

Of course die hard fans will love it, but I would prefer S-E stared taking this more seriously and not making FF games look unlike FF games.

Well, Squaresoft became Square-Enix seems to be a popular way to explain why games aren't as good as they used to be, but isn't a lot of the heads of Squaresoft still in Square-Enix? And aren't Final Fantasy games getting better? I mean, from what I hear XIII-2 is a major improvement over XIII. And then we have Final Fantasy Versus XIII which is looking good. I hope we won't need a sequel for that title like XIII to improve its shortcomings. Well, it's still in development so it's plausible to think that the people working on it will take notice to what went wrong with XIII.

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII was good though, and I think Final Fantasy Type-0 is too although I won't be playing that until it gets a western release.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #94 on:** March 07, 2012, 03:13:34 PM »

No, FF games are less FF with every title.

Versus is a completely different game than any FF game ever was.
FFXIII/2 are not really ff like as well, problem is I do not feel like playing those games, look at all the ff's before FF7, those had the spirit of FF, now you have NOTHING like Final Fantasy anymore.

Takeshi · « **Reply #95 on:** March 07, 2012, 03:18:10 PM »

Well, even though they're straying from what is known as Final Fantasy games, they're still good games. Excluding XIII of course, that was just no fun to play.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #96 on:** March 07, 2012, 03:51:43 PM »

If it doesn't look like Final Fantasy game, it's obviously not a Final Fantasy game.

The last FF Game I can accept is FF9.

Why? Because they have voice actors and no world map? X isn't my favourite but it certainly had most of the JRPG elements that every other Final Fantasy had, and X-2 had even more with the class system.

I expect the franchise to expand and try new things, even if I don't like the result the attempt is worth its weight in gold. In my view XIII was flat not because it diverged from the usual, I would've been perfectly satisfied with the battle system, characters, and plot, if they had the courage to make it a challenge.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #98 on:** March 07, 2012, 05:43:50 PM »

I don't mind Voice acting, but I did forget about FFX-2, loved that game, not story wise since it was purely for fun, but class system. That's enough to make me going.

Which FF games after FF9 and except FFx-2 had class system ? (FFXII Zodiac don't count)
None as far as I'm aware.

I wish it would come back to how it used to be, new people to FF (from FFx onward) won't even like the old game system, because they don't see the beauty of it.

FF9 didn't have a class system either. The point was the characters were developed to fulfill class roles, Thief, Black Mage, White Mage, Summoner, Ninja/Monk, Knight, and Blue Mage. As opposed to Soldier, Samurai, Summoner/White Mage, Black Mage, Thief/Ninja, Blue Mage/Dragoon, and Green Mage/Archer in 10. They just didn't use the signature nostalgic character designs in X.

8 and 7 didn't even really have class-differences, just different limit breaks. Though some characters were stronger in certain elements than others based on their base stats.

X still had every other element of a FF except the world map, which I'm not especially attached to.
