I think this was the announcement that finally made my decision for me. I finally took the plunge and got a 360 over a PS3. Xbox was hyping up their JRPGs with Blue Dragon, Infinite Undiscovery, and of course, Final Fantasy. It just so happened that shortly after Dell’s website made a mistake and marked down the Elite version of the console to $300 (from $450), and I snapped one up.
Looking back on it now, it was probably a bad decision to release on the 360 and having to split it into 3 disks. They had to make it super linear until the last disk when they can finally open up the world. It’s like for such a superficial reason too with 7+ hours of high quality cutscenes pushing the game over 50 gb.
I really liked the lore of the world that they built and some of the characters, but I am so unmotivated to finish the game; combat is not particularly good or bad and I do want to finish all the side content since I will never touch the game again once I do beat it.
I think I will commit to finally finishing it after all these years as like my new year resolution for 2024 once I have some time next year.

What a betrayal, Japan will never forget this?!
I dont know exactly why but OMFG I BOUGHT FF7 ON STEAM 10 YEARS AGO AND FORGOT TO PLAY IT UNTIL I SAW THIS!
This aged like milk, Square Enix hates Xbox and Xbox gamers now
I didn’t get the big deal until I was in middle school and realized how sad people were in response to this news
