    Beating the dead horse.

    quote:
    Square Enix's president and COO, Ichiro Otobe, and Square Enix producer Kosei Ito are both attending the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. They stopped by the GameSpot offices this morning and showed off the titles and answered questions about the two new mobile games, Final Fantasy VII Snowboarding and Musashi: Mobile Samurai. They declined to specify on which handsets and with which carriers the games would appear.

    The former (due out this next month) is a port of the snowboarding minigame found in Final Fantasy VII's Gold Saucer area, while the latter (due out this month) is an action-oriented take on the upcoming PlayStation 2 action RPG.

    Why not use their manpower to do REAL things?

      Because then they would have to come up with an original idea for a change.
      You know how gruelingly hard that is!

        I think it's less about originality and more about making a quick buck.

          Wait, the snowboarding minigame sucked. The motorcycle one was where it was at.

            Yeah, the snowboarding was shoddy.

                  I kinda liked the sub mini game.

                    I liked when Square made games.

                      they floged the horse, they had a good time with the death hourse, and now they are just going overbord. they are destroying what ever ff7 had by over comercializing it, i guess we will have to hail ff6 as the altime wonderful game in history.

                      it would be nice if people stuck to their trade, rather then try to do every damn thing in the world.

                      Thank you Ωbright for the sig fix!

                        Yeah but... FF7 is the Star Wars of videogames. It made videogames what they are today. This commercialization and merchandising isn't exactly uncalled for.

                          Yes it is. FF7 didn't become a franchise until somewhat recently. It was originally intended to be its own game, never to be brought back in any way EVER, aside from maybe a re-release or a remake. Same thing for about every FF game before 10. They should've left all these sidestories up to the thousands of people who already have been writing fanfictions for it.

                          (Star Wars is just as bad. I mean, they made a video game based on the LEGO Star Wars!)

                            And, in a bizarre turn of events, it looks awesome.

                              I'd rather play a leggo version of star wars.
