Community Push Square Community's Best Game of All Time Has Been Decided

Best of the best

After whittling the games down in a series of one-on-one votes, it all came down to a pair of iconic PlayStation titles — Bloodborne and Final Fantasy VII. It was a case of old vs...

News Final Fantasy VII's CG Cutscenes Look Better than Ever in This Impressive Fan Remaster

Final fantastic
The original Final Fantasy VII was a grand adventure, punctuated by a number of high quality CG cutscenes. At the time, they were a big deal, but like most CG from the 1990s, they haven't aged especially well. There's still an artistic flair to them, but by today's standards they're obviously very limited on a technical level. And...

Community Final Fantasy VII Voted Push Square Readers' Greatest Ever Game

Cloud nine
We, along with the rest of the Push Square community, were screaming like little girls when Final Fantasy VII Remake was announced for the PlayStation 4 during Sony's jaw-dropping E3 2015 press conference. It's fitting, then, that little over two months later, the original PSone version of Final Fantasy VII has been voted as Push Square's...

E3 2015 Oh No, the PS4 Port of Final Fantasy VII Has Been Delayed Until Late 2015

Say it ain't so
We're not sure about you, but we're finding it pretty difficult to maintain hype for the PlayStation 4 port of Final Fantasy VII. It's probably because, y'know, an actual remake of the PSone classic was announced at Sony's E3 2015 press conference, which we guess renders the mentioned port a bit obsolete. Yes, you read that right:...

News What if Final Fantasy VII Got an Open World Sequel with Randomised Dungeons and a Karma System?

It'd look like this
We've seen Final Fantasy VII fan projects before, but probably nothing quite as ambitious as this. Using the original PSone title's engine, an independent Japanese developer has created a sequel to Squaresoft's beloved role-playing game. The Amazing Custom Final Fantasy VII PSone Console Named Final Fantasy VII: Time Guardian,...

Weirdness Final Fantasy VII Has Never Looked So Real

First class
We love a good modded console here at Push Square, and this particular PSone from modder MakoMod has certainly caught our eye. Turning the top of his machine into Final Fantasy VII's Midgar -- the daunting industrial city where the game begins -- it's the detail that really sets this creation apart. From the Shinra reactors to the slums...

In Final Fantasy VII you'll explore a beautiful fantasy world that is slowly succumbing to the iron-fist rule of the ruthless Shinra, Inc conglomerate.

Operating from Midgar, the neon-drenched city built on a giant elevated plate to separate it from the poverty-stricken slums, the evil corporation uses giant Mako Reactors to gain power by draining the life force from the land, thus giving it a stranglehold over the planet's natural resources.

A number of rebel groups form to destroy this sinister force, the most powerful of which is a group of experienced fighters known as Avalanche. Each member of the team shares a common bond in that they have all been personally affected by Shinra's misdeeds and seek vengeance to reclaim their dignity. Their newest member is Cloud Strife, a former Shinra soldier who could be the key to victory for the rebels. So begins a grand adventure that will change the world forever.

The first Final Fantasy title for PSone is an unmitigated classic, a truly epic title that spans three CDs of finely crafted storytelling and deep RPG action. With a huge world to explore, hundreds of characters to interact with and a myriad of sub-games and side quests, Final Fantasy VII will tax your mind, your reflexes and even your heart. It's a truly unforgettable experience.
