There's an intresting Q & A over at gamespot.com that they asked the guy who's behind Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and KOA II and aswell helping with FFVII: Advent Children. ( He also did FFVII game )

But it's the last part that really intrest me.

DPM: Are there any chances for a FFVII sequel to be developed as a game after the release of Advent Children?

TN: I hope that this project may lead to something, since we woke up something that was sleeping.

I wonder.............?

Official word is "There is no sequel!". Maybe they will make one later, after seeing how the fans want more of 7 and less of the rest.

Yeah, But it just seemed intresting.

He said they woke something sleeping..... I wonder what that could be?

sound's like the game will take place after the movie. ( Assuming there is a game )

Final Fantasy 7 was terrible be glad that you don't remember it. I hate how this games is the most recognized in the series when its mediocre at best. I mean the game features a terrible story with more plot holes than swiss cheese and it gets critical acclaim. Don't get me started on the horrendous materia system and how it ruined the games gameplay. If they did anything with Final Fantasy 7 they just need to completely revamp the game period. I could go on but I digress..

wf are you on about! ff7 was the best ff there is! i recon they shouldnt make a sequal. unless it builds on the story line a GOOD way. i cant wait for advent children

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #8 on:** October 20, 2003, 02:27:00 PM »

IMO, Advent Children should not have been even thought of...Leave it to Square to totally screw up my vision for what happened afterward

Now I'll take my leave with an ambiguous quote

Sorry, kids. Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is a DVD movie, and not a game.

I repeat ... Advent Children is NOT a game.

I just have to say that Advent Children better have Chocobos or some heads are going to fly.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #12 on:** October 20, 2003, 02:41:28 PM »

Yeah, a movie that is bound to be crappy for expanding on the FFVII plot

I know that Rick, but it's that little piece at the end of Q&A that makes it sound like a game could take place after the movie.

If they could that is, anything is possible. I guess it depends on the reaction of the fans and how well the dvd movie performs.

Yes, but it was on PlayStation. It was 3D, it had fantastic FMV and it was the first ever Final Fantasy game to be released in Europe (I don't count Mystic Quest Legend -_-)

That's why it's most reconized.

even if there was going to be a sequal, what reason do we have to believe it would ever come to the gamecube? the gamecube hasnt even recieved a single title yet from square(in north america anyways), and as far as i know no more are planned. it would probably be on the ps2 anyways.

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #17 on:** October 20, 2003, 03:37:01 PM »

Who knows in this crazy world we live in. If it did ever come to be, it could be released on both PS2 and GC. Or maybe it could be a PSP or GBA exclusive. *Shrugs shoulders for hours*

I believe there is a really good chance that a sequel game could be made. I mean think about it, why would Square release a sequel to VII (the biggest seller of the series I might add) now and on DVD format. Several people from Square have already stated that creating a whole new engine for Final Fantasy VII sequel was a waste of money. Perhaps they are not confident that the fan base is big enough. Think about it, releasing a DVD movie is a lot cheaper than making a brand new game. They release it next year to the world and see if people still love Final Fantasy VII. If there is a market, which I know without a doubt there is, then they'll invest money in to making a game. Another thought, is that Advent Children takes place two years after the end of the original game. Perhaps a sequel game could connect the movie to the game even more and let us see the event in between.

Do you really think that Nintendo has a shot at any possible Final Fantasy VII sequel? I don't think that we will. We'll be stuck with Final Fantasy "wanna be's" for a while.

We'll probably not even get another Final Fantasy game on the Gamecube, unless it's Final Fantasy :Crystal Chronicles 2.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #20 on:** October 20, 2003, 06:10:54 PM »

We aren't getting a FFVII sequel...That's because I doubt there will ever be a FFVII sequel...

Like I said in another thread, if Nintendo ever gets the main FF series back on its console, it's going to be with a FF7 remake. It's the most popular in the series. If you don't think so, just remember who won Gamefaq's last character battle. The very fact that so many people are still clamoring for a sequel just shows how popular it is. It's the Ocarina of Time for the casual gamers.

Also, I think Nintendo's been trying to acquire the "Playstation Triforce"; the 3 biggest PSX games that made people leave Nintendo for Sony.

Resident Evil: Check

Metal Gear Solid: Check

Final Fantasy 7: ...we'll see

My personal feelings aside for FF7, I would still be very excited to see it on the Gamcube. At the very least, it would give a tremendous boost to the system. Also, unlike movies, videogame remakes are ALWAYS better than the original, so hopefully any major gameplay flaws would be fixed.

I at least expect something big from Square to be announced for the GCN. I just can't imagine Yammy paying Square, his bitter enemy, to just get a handfull of half-hearted support.

LOL What a way to support your view. Why is it the best ever in your view? I've played every Final Fantasy game ever made. FF7 is one of the worst in the series. It was a dumbed down version of Final Fantasy with a dumber plot and a huge ad campaign in the US and Europe that resulted in its high sales. Even most of the game mags had to admit the game was vastly overrated. I said it when forced my self to finish that putrid garbage and I'll say it again. I wouldn't wipe my @$$ with FF7 if the world ran out of trees and the only alternative to toilet paper was poison ivy.

Darc Requiem, so if you hate VII so much, what is your favorite Final Fantasy game and why?

KDR_11k · « **Reply #24 on:** October 20, 2003, 10:12:29 PM »

I place my bets on 6.
BTW, they should remake THAT. As in "real remake", not just adding a sequence to the front and aft.
