Steam version should run better unless you have a killer phone/tablet or a crappy PC. It lacks the daily 100 blue crystals for watching two ads. It has keyboard / gamepad support for controls. Otherwise it's identical to the mobile version. You can always play both.

So the new story chapter pretty quickly blasts through the Cargo Ship, Costa del Sol, the Gold Saucer, and Corel. Jenova BIRTH used the Jenova Dreamweaver model from Remake. But we get a couple new character portraits...

Addendum: They also put out a list of the new Limit Breaks: Cloud: Climhazzard Barret: Satellite Beam Tifa: Dolphin Blow Aerith: Breath of the Earth Red XIII: Stardust Ray Yuffie: Landscaper Zack: Apocalypse Sephiroth: Heliacal Rising Glenn: Hell on Wheels Matt: Vanquishing X Lucia...

This week's update brings: FFVII Chapter 6, which looks to cover quite a bit of content: the Cargo Ship, Costa del Sol, the Golden Saucer, and at least some of Corel. Cait Sith added to the character roster. A new Limit Break for each character. Draw: Easter costumes for Cait Sith and Tifa.

They won't be added to the general pool, but will be available to wishlist and pull on future Limit Break banners. Mild April Fools' Day joke from the EC Twitter. There is a touch of truth to it, however, as Cait Sith appears with a costume in the Easter event and will almost certainly be...

Holy crap, Lex. Looks like those screenshots people take after saving up 10 guaranteed gold tickets. I got a 5x Stamp draw on the new Sephiroth banner so feeling pretty good about that. I think I'm gonna have enough crystals by the end of the event to snag 3/4 costumes, so unfortunately I think...

So, Double Summons were added today with the Ifrit & Bahamut Double Summon, in which Ifrit and Bahamut are both summoned and perform a team attack called Crimson Flare, which boosts the party's Fire damage for a short while. Makes me wonder if we might see that as a feature in Remake Part 3...

0.5 Anniversary event starts tonight. Banners last a full month, with matching uniforms and weapons for Cloud, Glenn, Zack, and Sephiroth. Thematically seem to be cool white military uniforms with glowing green highlights to represent the lifestream. Cloud and Glenn to start, Zack and...

The Rebirth crossover event is coming soon. Bit of a surprise, the two featured costumes are Guide Uniform Tifa w/ Zangan Fist gloves... and Hellhound Red XIII??? Also get Igneous Saber and Ashura as farmable weapons for Cloud and Sephiroth, both AoE fire weapons. Guide Uniform is pure PATK...

Masamune clearly has a Japanese name, design, and folkloric inspiration, which probably means it's meant to be from Wutai. Rhadore doesn't really have any Japanese design motifs, looking more like it was inspired by Southeast Asian cultures to me. Personally, I always figured it's something...

New chapter of The First SOLDIER available now. Includes a really nice new arrangement of "Listen to the Cries of the Planet" which recurs a few times during the chapter. The chapter is unfortunately woefully short (3 sections with just seven episodes total), and ends just when it's getting...

So, unless I'm mistaken, Rebirth has "[ μ ] - εуλ" spoken in voiced dialogue for the first time. In the English dub it's pronounced using the Latin equivalent for each of the four Greek characters, spoken as if it's an abbreviation: "M-E-G-L." The Japanese dub instead uses the Japanese...

I really don't think this is the case based on the more recent PR material, but what if "the Zack timeline" actually turned out to not be an alternate timeline at all? We don't really know how it's integrated with the game yet -- I assume the story will just cut to it at certain points as it...

If this doesn't sell you on Rebirth, what could?

I would be extremely cautious about that. Make sure the leak actually predates the press release. I've seen a lot of fake leaks for other games retroactively gain credibility because they included already available information and people don't remember the actual chronology of press releases and...
