News The Time Has Come to Compare Final Fantasy Type-0 HD on PS4 to the Original PSP Version
You knew this was coming
Where would we be without graphics comparison videos?

News Final Fantasy VII Is Limit Breaking the PS4 Next Year
The crowd goes wild
Well, we didn't quite see that one coming. PSone classic Final Fantasy VII is heading to the PlayStation 4, although to the disappointment of many, it won't be an unrealistic remake.
