Apparently, FF VII is in Steam's servers

Some months ago there was an official re-release on PC via the Square Enix shop.
Eidos (the FF VII PC version publisher) is now part of Square Enix, the game would seem a natural candidate to join the company's offerings on Steam.

Do you think will we finally see it on Steam someday? Don't say it's an old game and full of bugs (I know it is) because there are also other old-as-fuck games on Steam already, and there is enough time to fix the bugs to make it playable on new computers.

It would not be hosted if they weren't planning a release. Simple as that.

No wai?? FF VII on Steam, that sounds too awesome to be true!! I hope we'll see this masterpiece in Steam one day. I don't know if it'll happen, but I sure hope it would. More people need to experience this epic game :)

Masterpiece! Man, I almost died laughing.

To each his very own, I suppose, and I can't that I couldn't shovel your kind by the barrelful from most Final Fantasy fandoms. Still would like to see FFVII on Steam though, if only because it would open the doorway for other titles. Here's hoping for Tactics and Chrono Trigger, maybe even Chrono-meh-Cross.

It would be a wonderfully terrible thing to bring FFT to Steam. I would never play anything else ever again.

I can see VII, and maybe VIII and XI / XIV. All of those have been on PC. Those others haven't.

Tactics and Chrono Trigger? Yes please. Now.

Probably not.
Just cause it's on the CDR doesn't mean it'll come to Steam.
Plus I'm sure Squenix would love to get every penny they get for their most popular game.

it might show up on Steam, but I wouldn't hold my breath about it. Personally I think I would like a legal version of the FF7 PC since the one I torrented ages ago is on an old xp computer that I don't use anymore except in emergencies and if I could get it through steam then all the better.

I'll be honest, Square should just retool all of the old games to work on PC and put them on Steam. With how their new games have been, I thin the fans deserve to have some good games released for a change, even if they're only rereleases.

+1, with some nice achievements for those of us who've played them before.

That's been on there for over a year. It never came to fruition because it didn't run on anything. Then SE of America took the time to patch it up to run on modern systems and decided to release it only on their store to keep the lion's share of profits.

2013 you'll likely see it come to Steam as sales on the SE store trail off and probably end of 2013/early 2014 it'll pop up on GOG.com.

I'd buy it instantly. But NO! Let's not bring it to Steam. Let's put it up only on SE Store and let's make it unavailable to certain countries. Let's NOT make money! Let's not sell this game to everyone who wants to play it!

And they wonder that piracy is growing. Seriously, customers are treated like shit and that's a fact.

Implying steam's DRM is all that strong to begin with...

I should be more explicit with my last post. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE steam. But DRMs like SecuROM (used by FF VII too) keeps me away to buy certain games.

That news report is over a year old...it might have been put on hold or even canned for not being up to standards to be on Steam. With that said, we've seen worse being put on there.

Considering the half-assing, money-milking they did with the latest version, I doubt they will put in any effort at fixing all the currently existing problems.

Representing "Old as Fuck" Y'all!
If this game gets on steam, I will buy it, or do other stuff

I hope if the game does get on steam, it will at least be an upgraded version from the old one. FFVII was and still is one of my favorite RPGs

I still have the original PC version discs sitting in a box in my closet. Haha. If anything, I think I'd rather see gog.com get their hands on it.

They should re-release it as the completed version at least, with the dead character brought to life and all (since they had files for it but rushed release so they couldn't finish implementing it).

Would be great. Still own it for a console I haven't had plugged in for years, but would be nice to replay it at some point. Same goes for FF VIII which I personally enjoyed more (neither as much as FF III/VI depending on what you want to call it though, ofcourse, but I've played that way too many times by now).

I really doubt it, the PC release of VII was not too popular. But I have the original PS1 Disc so not that it matters :P
