FFVII demo for E3 was a rush job, nothing linked with a real project.
There is a real final fantasy project in the works by FFX and FFX-2 team so i guess it is FFXIII :)
The good part is.... i am one of the few around me who actualy liked FFX so that fills me with hope after the fear of only seeing MMORPG stuff or FFVII spin offs :) For the record i never played X-2 since i didn t have a PS2 at release and anyway didn t want to play it (to me a FF must be unique, stuff that X2 was not for beeing X expansion)

However, he also suggested that he is involved as a core staff in the game’s development, stating, "As a hint, one thing I can say is that the FFVII technical PS3 demo was supervised by me and created by Toriyama and his team staff. I'll leave it to you, but you can imagine that development [of the PS3 FF] is happening via a similar process." Motomu Toriyama was one of the directors that worked with Kitase on Final Fantasy X, and he was the main director for Final Fantasy X-2.

Kitase also revealed the Final Fantasy VII technical PS3 demo was actually a rush job, created in just a month and a half. "We created [it] right before E3. I didn't think we could do it at first, but I called Sugimoto (Koji Sugimoto, FFX’s main programmer), and we somehow made it. I believe that if we had more time, we could have made it in a higher quality. In that sense, that demo didn't really take much advantage of the PS3's hardware specs. But still, we were able to make something that looked that good."

I knew the FFVII tech demo was just that, a tech demo. Why? Because that's what they fucking said at E3.

Sorry, I am just commenting on the fact that 10,000 FFVII fans on different forums went nuts thinking it was a remake being developed.

Never say never. Never give up...and Knowing is half the battle and stuff. I don't think they will ever do a sequel though. Maybe if a Final Fantasy doesn't sell well.

Final Fantasy VII is getting a sequel, it's called Advent Children, but it's a movie like the FF movie.

I dunno man, I liked FFVII, but I think it's highly overrated. FFVI was 100x the game VII was, and ChronoTrigger was 1000x the game.

All that I ask is that this time they make a good one, it's been down hill since FF8

Two actually, although Dirge of Cerberus is apparently a prequel.

Nope, it takes place like a year or two after Advent Children.

The PSP game, Crisis Core is the prequel.

Action-RPG from what I can tell. The only first person things I've seen were a couple sniping parts.

I would pay good money for a re-made FFVII. It's one of my all-time favorite RPG's (and yes I've played/loved the FF's before 7) and I've been itching to replay the game again. A remake would be perfect for me.

Still can't wait to see the movie, September 24th can't come soon enough IMO.

I'm hoping that the FFX director doesn't go with the character design styles used in FFVIII/FFX and does something a bit different, more in line with the FFVII/FFIX style. I loved FFX but I've seen enough of the style and would love to see something similar to FFIX which is horribly underrated IMO.

Reguardless I'm psyched to get a FF game on PS3, and pretty much that's the main reason I know I will be buying a PS3 at somepoint, because FFXIII will be on it. :)
