from the preview screens on the PS3 for ff7 i hope the do the remake. Final Fantasy 7 had the best story of all the games, and is my second favorite to snes final fantasy III (VI in japan). I like FInal Fantasy VIII third, final fantasy IX fourth, and final fantasy X fifth, final fantasy 2 snes (IV in japan) sixth, and final fantasy 1 seventh. I've seen the trailer for the movie and just wish it was an interactive game. Theres other final fantasies that deserve sequels, and i don't mean like X-2 which was girly j-pop crap and the u.s. did'nt get the updated version where you could actually play as the male chracters. Out of all the final fantasy games VI and VII deserve a story continuation, but final fantasy VIII and IX would be great too. VI-X are the best games in the series, and VII was when it bacame an interactive game/ movie. Can't wait for XII since it should really be called final fantasy tactics III. The games have great chracterization and i've always wished their was a series of novels, as a lot of these games sit comfortably in the same universe as tolkien's lord of the rings. In fact role playing games could be considered to be a by product of the tolkien phenomenon, since according to tom shippey he was single handedly responsible for crating the fantasy genre and the roleplaying was a byproduct or a dual birth. Some of squaresoft/square-enix games fit nicely into the science fiction catagory. Final fantasy 7 is set in a dystopian apocalyptic future where the earth itself cries out over shinraa corporation's destruction of the planet. Final Fantasy seven is the one game in the series with an overt message, we are destroying are planet with pollution and playing god by playing around with nuclear weapons and the human genome. Then there is Secret of Mana another favorite fantasy game of mine, chrono trigger the time travel sci fi/ fantasy crossover, chrono cross. Theres just too many too list. they are they best cgi studio out there next to lucasarts/lucasfilms , and the popularity of final fantasy in japan could be compared to that of star wars in the u.s. . Of course they are the top rpg game company, but there are others. There's gamearts who created the LUNAR SILVER STAR STORY AND ETERNAL BLUE, which I happen to own the translations by working designs co. Have not seen the movie but are the bad guys clones of sephiroth, like brothers or sons or something. or are they taken from jenova like sephiroth was. They have to make a chrono trigger 3.
