Is it sad that I own the SNES, DS and iPhone version of this game?

I'm also sure I have a few ROMs of it lying around my PC as well, but having bought the game three times, I feel I'm entitled to that sin.

I'm not sure a worthy remake could be done anymore though. Even Chrono Cross wasn't as good in my opinion and they still had a good number of the original devs.

Man I won't buy their overpriced iPhone shit but I sure do love me some oldschool Square games. Shame they won't stop just outsourcing them to small companies for DS shit or whatever. It boggles the mind how they could dump a few hundred mil into FF13 and ignore the myriad of good opportunities available to them from old IP. It's obvious that half the company still wants to make movies and the other half wants to make games, too bad the first half hasn't figured out that they can't make money doing that anymore.




Playing: Faster Than Light, Tales of Graces F, Fire Emblem 3DS Watching: Ghost in the Shell, Hannibal, Oblivion
