Dante Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Square-Enix has revealed the first image of the limited edition Final Fantasy VII PS3. Dubbed 'Cloud Black', this PS3 will come individually numbered and packaged with a Blu-ray version of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete. Of course, the real appeal of getting Advent Children Complete on Blu-ray is the Final Fantasy XIII demo. Oddly enough, Advent Children will have the option of English voices, but it'll lack the option for English subtitles if watching in Japanese. Also, the Final Fantasy XIII demo will not feature English subtitles or voice work. Too bad. The Cloud Black PS3 will come with a 160GB HDD and release on April 16th for 49,980 yen ($550 give or take a bit). No word on an oversea release, though. ps3.kombo.com I hope my topic has trick people. :p
Guest Jordan Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 ...Thats the most lazy "special edition" i've ever seen. They just shoved Clould's door knocker that he has on his coat on the thing.

Cube Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Plus it has new colour called Cloud Black and Sqaure likes to mess with FF series fans in Japan. That just sounds like they didn't bother to put that nice sheen over it.
flameboy Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 god what a lazy uninspiring boring special edition...
Ramar Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 ....and wheres the FFVII remake??? I was scared this topic was about to confirm it's development. My wallet was then creeping out the door.
Daft Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Yeah i figured not....Daft how bout a PS1 download? any word on that? I probably shouldn't say anything either way. Which reminds me, t'would be nice if there were some bloody PS2 games to download.
flameboy Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I probably shouldn't say anything either way. Which reminds me, t'would be nice if there were some bloody PS2 games to download. Is that a subtle hint?!
Daft Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Is that a subtle hint?! There might be a subtle hint of rage in there but nowt else I'm afraid.
Hero-of-Time Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 *shakes angry fist at Dantes misleading topic*
Pit-Jr Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I probably shouldn't say anything either way. I like those odds! I dont even want a remake like the realistic demo they showed at e3. I just want them to clean up the original and get rid of the load times

Sheikah Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I'll be getting the Blu Ray version when it comes because I always thought it was one of them films that would really benefit from Blu Ray (along with Lord of the Rings and CGI animations). I have to say though, the door knocker thing looks silly and they should have done the FFVII logo instead.
Nolan Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Which reminds me, t'would be nice if there were some bloody PS2 games to download. Wouldn't that be impossible though since they (stupidly, imo) removed all PS2 BC?
Choze Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 The only reason to get the movie for the FFXIII demo. FFVII on PSN is likely at some point. Unless Square and Sony are stupid.
ReZourceman Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Damn you Dante! :p Anyway, havn't y'all heard? Cloud black is the new black.
flameboy Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 There might be a subtle hint of rage in there but nowt else I'm afraid. ARGH dammit...nevermind was probably just wishful thinking...
Daft Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Wouldn't that be impossible though since they (stupidly, imo) removed all PS2 BC? Emulation.
Cube Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Emulation. It shouldn't be too hard for them to modify the emulation engine that they already have (the one that was in early PAL units) and make it only work with downloadable PS2 games.
Nolan Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Emulation. It shouldn't be too hard for them to modify the emulation engine that they already have (the one that was in early PAL units) and make it only work with downloadable PS2 games. I was under the impression though that, the original models (NA, JAP) had hardware BC. They then removed that and went to a form of emulation BC. What I had heard was that this emulation still had some basic PS2 functions. Besides, full emulation without any true hardware is extremely taxing. Which is why PCs can't emulate a console until it's out of commission. I suppose impossible isn't the right word though, more of improbable and hard.
Daft Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 If the 360 can do it I can't see why the PS3 can't.
Nolan Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 If the 360 can do it I can't see why the PS3 can't. It may have specific hardware though, idk. Compared to a PCs today, a PS2/Xbox is pretty modest, but you still can't emulate them very well is all I'm saying. It takes alot of resources that the console didn't even have in the first place. Of course the PS3 has the cell, iirc most of the emulation problems arise from processor requirements.
