    Love this FF7 Nostalgia-cast! FF7 was one of those games that redefined what is possible in a video game. Being able to have such agency in a large fleshed-out world with deep characters, a storyline that spans 60hrs, along with visuals that were extremely cinematic was something we had not seen before. The battle system required intelligence and I think players began to want more depth from gameplay (going forward) as a result. It also speaks to people on a deeper level, its a game that deals with loss in a genuine way, mental health issues, overcoming self-blame and self-doubt, and the importance of friendship. I was one of the guys on GameFAQs and NeoGAF always clamoring for a remake because of the strength of these elements and the impact that they had on me. Can't wait to feel it all over again when rebirth comes out

    CORRECTION: Ok, I know this isn't the podcast but Isla might need some corrections for her "Oops, All Corrections" episode(:P), also I just think this is interesting.
    19:40 While you all were talking about the rumors of a remake, and how the PS3 Tech Demo Blood mentioned reignited the fires, I thought of this story from Tim Rodgers FF7R review.
    While working for SONY, he attends a launch day event for FFXII on the PS2. At the event, the company president made a speech and gave a copy of the game to the first customer, who was then given an opportunity to say something on the mic. According to Mr. Rogers he said only:
    "Please remake FF7 for the PS3, thank you."
    Those flames never went out.

    I was a Squaresoft fan before played FF7, I liked to read video game magazines (back then the internet was not as popular) to track all the latest game news.
    So FF7 grabbed my attention the first time it appeared on the magazine. When everyone is still at era of pixel, this 3D battle image really impact me at the time.
    I never know 3D could do things like that. Then I forgot where I saw the video AD where it shows a few moves of battle sequence of Cloud doing a normal attack and then
    the cross blade ult. I was like what the f......how can someone be so cool.
    The Chinese word that Cloud writes every time in performing cross blade ult. 兇 (fierce) was very edgy and attractive to us kids back then. It felt like you literally ink an edgy word
    on enemy's face, it was so bad ass. And the final ult move - Omnislash , though I still don't know what it means in english. But in its Chinese translation - 超究武神霸斬 if direct translate
    word by word should be - super ultimate martial art god's oppressing strike. I mean who comes up with this name? I've got to see what this ultimate looks like.
    However I didn't own a PS at that time, and I only get to tried the game for the first time a few years later borrowing the console from a friend.
    Though 3D was not that special after a few years, FF7's graphic quality was still top tier at its time. And I finally get to see that Omnislash looked like - it didn't disappoint me
    One of the coolest ultimate of all time.
    And then we have TIFA joined the team, man... oh man.
    I am really glad that in Remake they made Aerieth so pretty that I really get to know her this time.
    Back then, due to the technical limitation and her original character design, she didn't have a noticible feature as TIFA, and was departed from the team early in the game.
    So I never really have much of understanding of Aerith as a character in game. So when she was compared to another female lead TIFA...there's no need to describe TIFA
    Come to think about it, it wasn't a fair match. So I am really glad that SE give a full development of Aerith this time so player who didn't play crisis core, could have a good understanding too.
    Very excited for rebirth
    hope it don't let me down
    (to be honest remake part 1 is a little let down... I thought they gonna make Midgar like in Yakuza that you can fully explore the city....)

It made ff7 og memorable because of the classic old themes too. Some moments were epic and well done, nostalgic.
