I'm so excited just to follow the excitement leading up to release. All the great memories of back in the day with ACC and Dissidia where I'd check thelifestream.net everyday for all the latest news both big and small (and the exclusive translations). I hope everyone is still up for all that, cause you got a huge fan right here.
Let the speculation begin! Considering the street sign that said "South Edge" and the way the narrator was talking, I'd say this is more than a remake. I think this title will combine the story of FFVII with a new VII-2. I'm seeing it as a reimaging of the world. Sorry, I think that means no Barret in a sailor uniform and other adventures. Much of the story may be removed or reordered. Just look at those soldiers in the rain, they looked very different from the traditional Shinra grunt, but yet the game calls itself a "remake". Hmm, I'm not convinced.
