This isn't a remake, it's a totally different game with a similar story and characters as FF7, the original is MUCH better. The most unique thing about final fantasy, WAS it's turn based battle system. I've been unable to enjoy anything since FF10. I get some folks like action based fighting better, but you can get that anywhere. Too bad square didn't stay true to the fans that helped up build this franchise since SNES. I know the bat system changed a while ago, just hoping they would have kept this one more old school style. This company is like the nickleback of video gaming lol.
