Well I was checking RPgamer, minding my own business, and it's just announced Squeenix's E3 Schedule.
Check it out

Scroll to the bottom and tell me I'm not dreaming..... Under the mobile section, does that really say... Beyond Crisis:Final Fantasy VII

So.. what do you think? Will this be a GBA game, a N Gage game or a PSP game. Is it set AFTER FFVII or before it (As "beyond Crisis" could refer to Jenova, the "Crisis from the Skies").

I doubt the N Gage's storage capacity and popularity for FF7 to ever descend on that platform.

I highly doubt it's the original... Dev houses aren't taking risks at the moment, and from the sounds of the title, it sounds like a spin off based in the FFVII universe along the lines of a minigame...

I'm sorry about being so cynical, but the current state of the industry has left me feeling very jaded

It's more than likely going to be a game for a type of mobile phone. Unfortunately.
Over at http://www.adventchildren.net they have been discussing it, dug up proof, and pics and whatnot of it. It sucks, If it were on a system, or handheld, I'd buy it for certain. But a Mobile Phone? Gah! Bad Squeenix! Bad!

Chickenlump, what you need to understand is: it's Final Fantasy! People will buy it no matter what it's on! The name sells. It can be total shit and sell well because it has Final Fantasy in the name. Everyone has cells these days, so it was probably smart for Square-Enix to make a cell phone game.

Smart? Yes. Lots of people have cell phones? Yes. Will it still sell? Yes.

All very good points.

But...*I* don't have a cell phone.
The hardware it's on will probably limit what can be done with it as well.
(There are some pretty powerfull cell phones though...)

I'll be ok as long as they port it to a REAL console or handheld....

The GBA would have enough power to render the basic characters, maybe the summons at a push, but it would have nowhere near enough space to store the pre-rendered backgrounds. The entire game would have to be re-made.

I just saw a few pictures of it, and you play as....The Turks!

I honestly never saw this coming.......
I don't look forward to it, but if it doesn't get ported to a 'proper' gaming machine,
I may have to buy a cell phone just to play this...

Well, I don't know, but it seems to me as though it's a Behemoth they're attacking.

I don't think I'm going to buy a cellphone just to play this game. It would be nice and all, but I'll just try to get it another way, or I'll wait until I really need a cellphone.

I think I'm the only one even slightly hopeful about this.

I honestly think it could work, executed correctly of course. I've seen some awesome games run on the Symbian OS, and I think this kind of game would be perfectly suited to high-end phones.

I have a Sony Ericsson P800, and I can't think of anything better than an RPG that would make good use of the touch screen. Menus would be quick and easy to navigate, slecting targets would be simple, it all makes sense. The only problem I can really see however is memory. A game with that much depth would would require an insane amount.

It's not an N-Gage Game, it'll be a Java Game. I like the look of it meself as I like Java/Mobile games, Prince of Persia kicks arse.
