Since the weekends can be about relaxing from work and talking about fun stuff, I was really excited this week at E3 that Sony and Squeenix announced a remake of Final Fantasy 7. This is something many, many people have asked for and now we're finally seeing it. If you've seen Advent Children then you have an idea of what the characters and environment could look like. I, for one, am stoked about this. I'm a little wary, however, of whether the game can keep its charm or whether this will be a big disappointment with an overhaul of the combat system and story.

And the big question, of course.....In the remake can you revive Aeris?

    Controversies do indeed generate buzz, but controversies, by themselves, do not necessarily generate sales. There's a big difference between picking up a copy of the game that's controversial because the developers spent 90% of their time getting the "jiggle" physics right for the boobs of the beach volleyball players, and picking up a game that will get you derided with homophobic comments from your bros, i.e. the target demographic. I'm not suggesting that's the way things should work; I'm just pointing out how things actually are.
