FFIV 3D remake compared with original 2D games



Using the magazine scans that revealed Final Fantasy IV for the DS yesterday, NeoGAF forumer Speedpop cropped screenshots of the 3D remake right next to their respective scenes from the SNES and GBA releases. The juxtaposition gives you a good idea of how different Square Enix's updated game will look from the originals. Compare and contrast after the post break.

21. "Err... I don't think there's a way in hell the original FF7 is coming to the DS unless it is significantly downgraded instead of upgraded... would you want that? A 3 CD game (about 2 GB) fit onto a game card (up to 128 MB I think). That's around 6-7% -- let's be generous and say a 256 MB size limit and it's still about 13%." - Mastertard

Err.. Tard! Stop spewing crap?! Please! We can live without such BS, and it's cool for the environment.

- Videos can be compressed.
- Sound can be compressed.
- Non-battle visuals are actually worse than FFIII (Wake up, man!). In what moronic reality is the PSone supposed to be miles ahead of the DS? They're virtually on par!
- Cart size can be increased.

Case and point: Resident Evil DS.

Ugh. The **** people come up with to kill a very plausible buzz.
