It says remaster but it looks like a port of the existing PC version, just like VII is on current gen consoles.

Same here! I’ve been watching the Square Enix livestream and finding it massively underwhelming (lots of trailers that have been shown before, some for games that are already out) and then I heard the opening notes of Liberi Fatali and couldn’t help shrieking in excitement. That’s a grown man shrieking at 3am level of…

Do you mean streaming app? Or there a rumoured or upcoming streaming service that I'm not aware of?

They're completely unrelated in terms of plot so there's absolutely no need to play the first one first. Although, yes, it's looking like the remaster is coming to the PC as well.

I think the answer is right there in the question. I mean why wouldn’t you prepare it in advance? Wouldn’t you want to double check it was all there? Wouldn’t you want to make sure it loaded properly? If you had a big presentation to prepare, would you wait until the morning of to start putting the PowerPoint…

You know Xbox streaming works pretty well these days, right? All they'd need to do is port the Windows 10 app to Switch and I'd be pretty happy if it performs as well as it does on PC.

I'm not sure about Xbox games actually running on the Switch (although I guess that depends on the Switch Pro's hardware), but surely it wouldn't be difficult to bring Xbox streaming to the Switch - basically port the Windows 10 Xbox app to the Switch so that, if you have both consoles, you can stream anything from…

Yeah - and how did he manage to take pictures of all of those specific things, especially the fleeting Stan Lee cameo? Either it was his second or third viewing or he was basically recording the whole movie.

1) I only got my 3DS 2-3 years ago, so I started with a huge backlog of games for it, plus inherited a backlog of games from the DS that I never got around to.

I didn’t get a PS3 until 2012, so by then the first three Uncharted games had already been released and I’d missed out on them. They were always on my list but I didn’t get around to playing them until late 2016. The way a lot of games are these days, it was really nice to play a few games that were really tight,…

Between the 3DO and the Amiga CD32, 32-bit CD-ROM-based consoles didn’t get off to the best of starts.

I thought it was pretty significant, to the point where I was expecting Jason to write this article.

By late 1996 the PlayStation had already been out for over a year (two in Japan) and was a runaway commercial and critical success - it had sold 9 million units worldwide, had games like Tomb Raider, Resident Evil, Wipeout, Tekken and Crash Bandicoot and had effectively killed the Sega Saturn. Nintendo may have not…

Just play it! You’ll be done before the remake comes out.

I’ve still got my original PSX copy, and I also had the original big box PC version but I think I sold it on at some point, plus I rebought it digitally on the PS3 so that I could play it on PSP and now Vita as well, and then I got it on Steam before I had a PS4 but then rebought it on PS4 because I wanted to go for…

Yeah, but FF VII isn’t getting a physical release so it still hasn’t been released on a cartridge.

Or let’s acknowledge that there was one made and it was terrible and then stop waiting for another one and just replay the original - I mean if it’s so good, why does it need to be remade?

Why not? 

Also there was like zero piracy on the N64 at the time, whereas PSX games were relatively easy to copy and play.
