There were some hopes given the date and the logo went up that perhaps it might be the long awaited remake that fans have been requesting for years.
Instead, now the Playstation 4 will join the list of consoled with a ported version of Final Fantasy 7 upon them. Given Square Enix's close relation with Sony this is a natural move to help promote the Playstation 4 as there are always tons of fans of Final Fantasy 7, in whatever form it may be.
