So with FFVII Remake coming later in the year, I thought it would be cool to look back at the 2005 tech demo for FFVII
According to the FF Wiki:
I remember seeing this in 2005 and being convinced FFVII was being remade for PS3
It's kind of funny now but it's probably a good thing it wasn't. In another timeline FFVII Remake came out on PS3 and we'd likely never get the great looking PS4 version
What were your thoughts when you first saw the PS3 demo, and were you convinced it was going to be remade for PS3?
According to the FF Wiki:
The Final Fantasy VII technical demo is a remake of the Final Fantasy VII opening, showcasing the new graphical capabilities of the Sony PlayStation 3, unveiled in E3 May 16, 2005.
The technical demo was made by the team that went on to develop Final Fantasy XIII, with Motomu Toriyama as the director. Final Fantasy XIII was initially planned for the PlayStation 2, but the team working on it was derailed to make the Final Fantasy VII technical demo; the results for the demo were so good that the development of Final Fantasy XIII was moved to the PlayStation 3 platform once its full development resumed
