They should have done a follow-up game instead of another remake. That art in the upper right corner is the bee's knees though.
Caution children! Happy ice cream dancing for you!

This would've been nice BEFORE I got the GBA version.
Holding out on a 3D version of FFI and FFV now. They also need to start thinking up excuses on why they haven't ported VII yet. |

I hate the Final Fantasy CG models they've been using since Crystal Chronicles where the characters are proportioned like tops and look like they're going to fall over any second.
 It's time for revenge... |

You know, I enjoyed the remade III on DS a lot, but it was a lot easier to swallow sans memories of the 2D version, which I've still to this day never played. Since it was entirely new to me, I could roll with it... but a game that's already ingrained in my memories... just won't sit right. I've always been kind of a purist, but I did really like the Phantasy Star remakes in the Sega Ages collection, so I guess I'll just keep my mouth shut and wait, but it'd take a lot to change my mind here, I think.

Yeah, I definitely won't be buying this one. Even if they do a decent job of it, I'm too partial to the 2D version to switch.
 If someone tries to remake FF4 on a system or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, that's no good. CB007's GPT & Game Review Archive "Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. Nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done." |

I'd like to play it, even though it will never be the definitive version.
Final Fantasy III was a good enough (and probably all around better balanced) transition of the Famicom game, but then I didn't really have any strong, pre-standing attachment to the original version. |

It would look alot better if they stuck with the simple and original design for Cecil. He's a dark knight. He's supposed to be brooding and
mysterious. That version looks entirely to feminine for me to take it seriously.

I guess I've changed my mind enough on this that I'd at least play through the new version to see what it was like. In terms of pure gameplay, I'd
be concerned that the switch to 3D would make combat slower.

I don't recall the battles being all that fast in Final Fantasy II as was, really, and sometimes it seemed like forever before Kain would come back down
from a jump... I played a little earlier and compared it to the DS Final Fantasy III, and I'd say they were paced about the same; maybe III being even a
hair faster.

Artwork on top left of this page is raw. I will probably buy this remake, but even if I didn't, I would be happy it came out for only the fact they drew that to go along with it. |

Here's what I'm talking about since that link seems blocked. It's the best game art I've seen in years. |

Cecil's also wearing eyeliner. Did somebody not realize he's a man?

There's so much man in the pic I posted that Cecil could grow 3 vaginas and 90 tits and still be stone cold butch enough to survive the harshest winter.

Don't give them any ideas! Or would that be an example of games being art?

That would be an example of a game being a beat off fantasy for three lonely Scandinavians who have been living in a isolated shed for 15 years. Which, in
turn, is the very meaning of art.

That is true. Which brings me to another thought.
There could be a scene in this remake where Cecil has to breastfeed a cranky Yang back to a good mood, and guess what? He'd still make Rambo look like Polly Pocket, because of the picture I posted. |

Ha, this one has hyper realistic (and therefore extra ridiculous) versions Adult Rydia and Yang.

Blond hair was a bad choice for Yang, although I do like that CG render of him.
