Final Fantasy VII PS3

Recommended Posts

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.

Plus it has new colour called Cloud Black and Sqaure likes to mess with FF series fans in Japan.

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.

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.

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.
