Video Game General 6.4: New Halo? What else?

As long as each part(assuming they are full priced games) is a full fledged game, I don’t have any issues. But it’s like a 20 hour game, then yeah I might have an issue.

See you in 2050!

I mean, it’s still a remake of VII. Unless they plan on making totally new story content each part would have to be around 20 hours since the original game is 60 hours, 80 at most

I’d imagine they might incoporate some of the characters and threads from Crisis Core etc to get it in line with the compilation of ff7

Didn’t they said they wanted to expand on the game’s lore. If it is just a graphic overhaul and a new battle system, then I’ll pass.

man square enix about to drag the 4 to six hours you spend in midgar out a whole game.

Even if they expand it by 20%, which would be a lot, you’re still not looking at more than 25-30 hours per.

That said I guess we’ll see how much is added

I thought you were in Midgar way longer than that

That’s like me saying to win in any fighting game you just spam fireballs and SRK’s.

You’re oversimplifying both genres.

naw 6 hours is if you talk to every npc and try to explore. the midgar section is really the reactors, pimp adds time if you want the best dress for cloud, the plate collapse,and storming shinra building.

Others were saying turn-based is dead because it’s boring and not engaging, or at least that’s what SE thinks. I was just stating I could say the same about ARPGs too. I know they are not all that simple.

FYI I’m trying to defend turn-based. I still enjoy them.

I’m gonna have to play FFVII again because my sense of time seems to be warped to all hell. Could of sworn that you were in Midgar for longer.

Midgar is pretty much the prologue. The game doesn’t even really begin until you leave it, imo.

Dont forget the turtle paradise flyers

Shin Megami Tensei would like to have a word with you!

But to me one of the best battle systems were Grandia and FF12.

I still think that SE should never fuck with making action games though. They always sucked ass at it… Ugh The bouncer…

I’m still pissed about this. It had so much potential.

Man Colecovision got a weird library back then
Yeah there not alot of games for this system, but for the time period most was Hot garbage.
But Strangely the Coleco had better Arcade Ports than Anyone else at the time.
There at least 30 games for this thing that was not bad for it’s time (out of a total of 330).

Atari had 4750487 Bajillion games for the 2600 and almost half as many for the 5200 but they are all absolute shit, even the popular game ports. Like how do you fuck up porting Pac-man?

Turns out a Jailbroken Mega SG can load Genesis, Sega Master System, Sega SG1000, Game Gear and surprisingly Colecovision games. Turns out The Sega Master System and the Colecovision both used the same (or very similar) off the shelf parts and thus very similar consoles.

The Bouncer is a mostly Dreamfactory game, the same devs as Tobal 1&2.
