‘Final Fantasy VII’ Announced For The PS4… As A Port!

Oh, Square Enix. Do you enjoy tormenting your fan base?

Down at the Playstation Experience event in Las Vegas, it was announced that Final Fantasy VII will be released for the Playstation 4! After what’s seemed like years of begging and pleading for a remade version of the PS1 classic, it looked like fans were finally getting their wish after teasing them all those years ago with a PS3 mock up! While it seemed like it would never happen, patience and perseverance have finally… wait, what? It’s not a remake? It’s ANOTHER port? Oh… okay then.

Porting over the PC version, this re-re release will feature the same upscaled visuals that computer players got to enjoy back in 1998, making those blocky polygons remind you why you trampled a toddler to get that new TV on Black Friday. For everyone else who either owns the PS1 version, the original PC version, downloaded it for their PS3 or bought an overpriced memory card to store it on their PSP or Vita, it’s time to get excited to buy it again, only this time, for the privilege of storing it on your PS4. The next generation has arrived, people!

Seriously, it feels like Square Enix is making fun of us at this point. Who will pick up FFVII on PS4 when its released next spring? Who knows. If we all buy it enough times, they’ll HAVE to remake it. Right?
