It was a shame that I had to hold off on the off chance that this would happen, but I'm glad I did. Hope it comes out soon!
Yeah this is why I stopped buying iPhone games unless they are $.99. Waiting for the iPad version sucks but sometimes its worth it
Wow, if it's that much, forget about it. The game's nice, but it's certainly not a full-fledged game. More like an XBLA or PSN downloadable game, which is why the original 13 buck price was reasonable. Count me as one of the annoyed early adopters who bought the iPhone version only to play on the iPad.
With the massive success of CHAOS RINGS I wouldn't be surprised of Square Enix ports FF7 to the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad. Even just a direct port enhanced with touchscreen controls and higher polygon models would sell very well at, say, a $20 price point. But that's not the topic. Personally, I wouldn't have gotten this for iPad even if I held off on getting the iPhone/iPod Touch version. I carry my iPod Touch around all the time, and CHAOS RINGS is designed for mobile use. My iPad stays at home.
Not a full-Fledged game ? What a joke !!! You say me when a game like this is on the PSN or XBLA... I haven't seen today.
Ummmm... Shadow Complex??? Not an RPG, but certainly a complete game that was excellently done. I would also love to see FF VII on iPhone / iPad, although I would say that the graphics need to have a serious update. I did not mind on the PS, but have grown too used to having nicer graphics with the more recent iterations..
There are a few "lite" RPGs that have been released on XBLA like the two Penny Arcade Adventures and a Vandal Hearts prequel. Chaos Hearts is between 4 and 6 hours to play through the first team. That's pretty much the game, repeated 3 more times (by playing the other teams). If this was on the PSP at 40 bucks it would be torn apart by critics. The game is good, but as I said before, not a full fledged game.
- That's more 6 or 8 hours than 4 or 6 hours for one team. - There is more than 3 team to play. - Playing other teams is a part of gameplay. - The core of the game is upper class, the battle system is far better than in some "real" RPG on PSP. you have some short games and "bad" games on PSP for 40 bucks. : Why, the game is really good, and it is a "real" game, excellent design and battle system, a little short, but it's all. I have played FFXIII on my 360. It's a crap for me. It's 50 hours of game, superb graphics, good battle system but it is a crap. Chaos Ring is a gem, short gem but a gem, nothing to do with "not full fledged"
what really excites me is this "Well, we’ll keep on creating other good games too!" i want more RPGs!!! with towns more characters,customizations and modern battle system!
I think that would be way too much for FF7, seeing as its only 9.99 in the PSN Store and not even that good to begin with.....*cough*
You guys are getting all worked up over a price that doesn't even exsist yet I spent 50 bucks for monkyball on the wii. If anyone should be mad......... Then again I probably should know better
I suppose, but has the one for download on the PSN Store been remastered in any way? Let me revise my statement: I think a remastered port (for music/SFX, polygon count, touchscreen controls) of FFVII could sell well at a $15-20 price point.
When is this game coming!! I have been putting off buying the iphone version for weeks and weeks now!
I gave up waiting and bought the game about three weeks ago. I figured: 1. I already waited 1 1/2 months, and who knows when the HD version will arrive? Another month? Two? Four? 2. HD version will be most likely be pretty expensive. 3. Saw video of it running on an iPad -- didn't look too bad (and it isn't). The game is great if you like RPGs, but Square Enix missed out. They took too long. I probably won't buy the HD version now unless it's on sale for $5 or less, because I'm not into replaying RPGs. Even if they add an extra level or character or whatever to the HD version, it won't be enough for me to justify spending $20+ they will likely be charging.
