It's like Square Enix are the mean parents; "Sure, I love you. Here, have candy." Child reaches out for candy, "No! You wait to be handed it, no candy for you! Go to your room!"
Only reason I can think of for this kind of shabbiness.

Thank you, good sir/ma'am. This is what I've been saying all this time! *Sigh*oldtaku said:
OT: I'm a FF fan. I really am. My favorite FF was FFVIII and FFIX. I thought FFVII was...okay. Well, actually, I hated it. When they started releasing all the spin-offs and fans started claiming it was the best game ever and that's why it was the only game that deserved their attention, I got a little pissed. To me, the game didn't have a good ending (Don't feed me that "Abstract" ending crap. Cutting from a big event to 500 years later without an explanation is a bad ending that they tried to cover up with two sequels). But alright, I said. At least they're trying.
But when I heard they were literally re-releasing the same game only now was just utter bullshit. I wouldn't mind re-buying a game as long as it looks better (MGS, Jak and Daxter, DMC, etc.) but if it looks and feels the same as that game from 10 years ago, then why buy it again? I still got my original copy.
Oh, Square Enix. Sometimes I wonder where you went wrong...
Since there are mods that do a better job, you have to wonder why anyone would pay that much for this re-release. In all honesty, I can't see a good reason to buy this one, unless you don't own another version of the game anymore (maybe a compatibility issue? Did they took their time to make the game run smoothly on current PCs?).
There's a fan-mod that does the same thing PLUS adds in the PS1/X sounds.aceman67 said:
To me this seems to just ANOTHER shitty port (of a mediocre JRPG I might add) that's there to cash in on retarded fans who don't know how to use google.
Then again, this IS Square-ENIX, who hasn't MADE a 'noteworthy' JRPG in nearly a decade or so.
:/
Yet more evidence for the 'Squeenix has no clue what it is doing' outlook.
But yes, those who already purchased the game are entitled to it, however they may have to wait and think of it as a pre-order

This thread is both hilarious and sad at the same time.
There's people who paid money for a product that just plain doesn't work at all entirely due to the fault of the producer with no refund being given and some people here are saying they shouldn't complain?
Are you guys serious?

You bet they are entitled to play a game THEY PAID FOR. I can't believe I am still surprised that people like you still can't use the word entitled in its proper context. When you purchase a game legally you are fully within your rights to play it.Scrustle said:
As for the piracy issue, I honestly care less and less about people pirating products as long as I see developers and publishers crapping on their customers. DRM on a game over a decade old, and said DRM is whats stopping the PAYING CUSTOMERS from playing the game THEY PAID FOR. It is just utter BS and its crap like this that makes me just say oh well when you see the supposed high piracy rates.
Yes, when you pre-oder a game you cannot download it, but in this case they were able to download it, they have all the files on their PC so they have all the rights to play the damn thing, especially if they were able to download it from the official web site.Buretsu said:
They were able to download it from their web site after they legally purchased it. So who in they're right mind would NOT expect something functional.Buretsu said:
It is like i purchase a game on GamersGate, they let download the game and after the download the game doesn't work because of stupid DRM... huh sounds familiar.
Yeah so Square are doing a Ubisoft+GFWL DRM kinda crap but without acknowledging that they screwed up, good job Square, good job.
So when a company sells you a product (on their own website) that doesn't work and refuses to give a refund (violating just about every consumer right I can think of), complaining about it makes you a "stupid entitled prick"? Please, explain your logic.Scrustle said:
