So, today, AC was released in Japan. It was supposed to be released in the US simultaneously... but unsurprisingly, it's been postponed. :0 So the tentative new release date for the english version (ie, american - no word on a UK release yet) is either end of November, or January next year. However! Someone managed to take a DVD rip just before it was released, and it's now available for download (via bottorrent). With english subtitles. ;D So, if you want to watch it (I have, and it's amazing. So pretty. If a little confusing.) what you have to do is... - download the bien DVD rip (this is a good torrent to use: www.torrentspy.com/download.asp?id=406230 ) - download the english subs here: divxstation.com/subtitle.asp?sId=46977-download this program and install it: www.doom9.org/Soft21/Subtitles/VobSub_2.23.exeThen all you need to do is: - Unzip the english subs into the same folder as the avi file. - Rename the video file and the .sub file so they have the same name (ie, ff7ac.avi and ff7ac.sub) - Open up VobSub ("DirectVobSub Configure"), click 'open', and select the .sub file. Click 'apply', and then run the video file. It should work automatically, but if not there should be a green arrow down in the taskbar by the clock. Click on it and select 'show subtitles'. It's actually pretty straightforward to do. ^^ They're good subtitles, too. So yeah. Don't know how many FFVII fans there are here, but probably a few I guess. ;D

'Last Order' (the anime OVA, which covers what happened during Sephiroth, Cloud and Zack's visit to Nibelheim) is now subbed and available for download ;D You can find it on www.torrentspy.com/ too.

Well, I have it - so if there's a few people who want to see it we could probably show it at a meeting. ;D

You have the movie or the OVA?

well, both - but I was meaning the OVA =D (although, there's probably a few who'd quite like to see the movie, too...)

That would be so awesome to see the OVA during one of the meetings (which by the way I'm looking forward to, not just cuz of the animes , but to meet you lot too). ^_^ Rumors about the remake - I've been hearing loads about that! That's so awesome! I keep hoping for that! FFVII is probably the best FF game! *coughCloud'scutecough* Sorry *ahem* But yeah, awesome awesome film.

Yeah... a remake would be awesome, but they said it probably wouldn't happen unless the original became incompatible with the lastest PS console. But the tech demo shown at e3... *_* so pretty! mm, we should try and get the OVA shown at a meeting - especially since it's only 20/25 mins long =D

From what I've heard about the remake, the original director has said he'd like to do it, as long as he has no other projects taking up his time. So... probably not going to happen anytime soon. But the franchise is being milked at the minute, and no less than 3 FFVII spinoff games are being released.

oooo, yes the anime OVA is awesome. You can't watch the film and not watch the OVA, but then if you have watched the film and the OVA you must play/replay the game

ahh, yeah - dirge of cerberus looks really good. although apparently it plays like devil may cry.... which is great in some respects (since dmc is such a fun game) except... i was rubbish at it. =p but the previews/clips of it look cool. ...of course, we still have to hope that it would get a UK release :/

yeah, watched this a week ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. Voices spot on and did anyone notice that some of the voices for Advent Children were also in Full Metal Alchemist? I'm thinking or Reno, Rufus and some others. Play a little game and see if you can match them to their FMA counterparts. Seeing the OVA at anisoc one time would be the best. Btw, would also be good to show the FMA film when it becomes available (if possible.) Sorry to derail the thread a bit

Never thought of that. I haven't actually seen the FMA movie yet. Uwaaah I can't wait to. If anyone has that yeah, i agree, would be good to see!

I noticed Rufus had Roy's voice, anyway... was made more amusing by the eyepatch. =p I swear kadaj sounded exactly like envy... but apparently they had different voices :/ I do have the FMA movie, but it's raw and very bad quality, so definitely not good enough to be shown...

mmm..... such a sweet film!! I have heard rumours that they may remake FFVII for the PS3!!! Fingers crossed!!! We can only hope! Personally, i think if they rereleased it with exactly the same gameplay, Improved graphics and a few corrections to the Story then it could probably be the biggest selling game of all time! In the meantime, as Ryou mentioned, there is a Tech Demo video out... Which i recommend a quick watch! www.gamespot.com/ps3/rpg/finalfantasyvii/media.html

Heh, it would be amazing if they remade it with those graphics... but it would also be really weird.
I mean, can you imagine the part where Cloud cross-dresses rendered realistically? XP or, well, the whole wall market part... especially the scene in the group room of the honeybee inn, or the scene with don corneo... scary. =p (though other parts would just look really cool, like the reunion and when the weapons wake up and attack *_* )

Hehehe, who cares if it's weird It's such a good game that I acquired it for the pc and started playing it through again But just think, if they remade it they could add all the voices too!!! And you are right cauterize (they are a good band ), it would sell out very fast imo! The limited edition box set dvds also sold out fast, did anyone manage to get one??

Would LOVE to get one but no. *sighs* Would be so great though. Can't spend long enough ranting bout how cool it'd be .

the limited edtition sets looked amazing. *_* would have been nice to be able to afford one. =p
heh, yeah, i spent most of what was left of my student loan on a ps2 of my own over summer... just as well really, cause the old one we had pretty much broke.
i hope they don't decide to make ffxii for the ps3...as that would be evil, since i can't afford one yet!

I think it's defo for the PS2 cos they have a whole other list for the PS3 And if they don't I will kill them!!! Also, still waiting for Kingdom Hearts to to come out! :@:@:@ I can't believe they still haven't released a EU version of that yet!!!
