Basically, I think Square Enix needs to bring all their classic Final Fantasy games, along with titles like Chrono Trigger/Cross, to Steam. Clearly it's not impossible since Sega is bringing their Sega Genesis games to Steam. But yeah, if these games can be released on the iOS Appstore and the Google Playstore, there's no reason Steam shouldn't have them. Here's the link to the petition if anyone wants to support it.

I think both ways of petitioning have been done before Personally, I think contacting the company beforehand would be better, but if that doesn't work a massive amount of signatures can also be convincing

Chrono Trigger is boring, they re-released FF7 last summer, the ones after that are "too new", and I already own the greatest Final Fantasy game on it's original console (Final Fantasy IV), so I'm good.

No it's not. There's a reason that game's been re-released on PS1, NDS, iOS, Android. It's just one of the greatest and timeless RPG of all time.

Yeah, for £6.99 or whatever the equivalent of that is if you have a different currency. I pay less than that for most of my Steam games though, which is why I haven't purchased it on Android, maybe it it went on a sale of some sort. Square Enix generally charges quite a lot for their mobile titles imo. Look at Final Fantasy Dimensions, £13.99 for a damn Android game lol.

Chrono's $10 and FFD is $20. Insanity. Apparently Chrono has an issue where if someone calls you while you're playing, you get reverted back to the last save spot and lose all progress since then, so I'll be passing it up. FFD seems really interesting, but I can't give them $20 for it.

LOL so if you play without airplane mode turned on you're fucked...and apparently FFD is underrated as well, it's supposed to be good. But I'm just not paying that amount for an Android game ever in my life.

Hah, exactly. Chrono has a ton of bad reviews for that exact reason. Sorry, but if my phone doing its phonely duties is going to kill my game, then I'm not going to bother playing that game on there. :p

Yeah, FFD sounds really interesting, but that price tag kills me.

Also, I keep seeing comments on their game's pages that you have to be connected to the internet or something? Something about a license check, not sure exactly, but if that's true you wouldn't be able to enjoy it on airplane mode. I'm not entirely sure what's going on there but if my assumptions are right, you'd just have to deal with your game cutting off when someone calls :S

Yeah I think the same, you cannot convince someone to like a game if they don't like it. I don't like Kingdom Hearts (tried playing it 3 - 5 times already), I could never get so into it like others have.

I've seen those rumors many times but I want actual confirmation. Also not just those two, though those would be the easiest since they were both released on the PC already, I'm saying they should also bring 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and even the Tactics games, and 9

Edit: Hell even 10, 10: 2, 12 and all the 13s. Why not.

The only confirmation we have so far is that the steam database entries for both games get updated at least once every two weeks lately, FFVII was re-released/bug-fixed on the SE store last year, and that FFVIII has been confirmed for an HD remaster coming soon.

However, I'm not entirely sure how these petitions work I mean, do you have to contact the person it's aimed at beforehand and agree on a number of signatures you need or could a petition just be made out of the blue and just sent when done?

Let me explain how petitions work in 3 simple steps:

  1. You start a petition.
  2. You get a needed amount of signatures.
  3. No one gives a fuck.

10000 is reasonable when addressing a big company.

If it seems like a big amount just advertize it, once Square Enix see they can make lots of money from it, they will probably do it.

You can buy final fantasy 7 for pc from the square enix page

with achievements and cloud storage just like steam, i don't know why they don't bring the game to steam, also i don't know why they made final fantasy 13, 13-2 and 13-3 if 13 is a bad game and with bad sellings

FF7 has been on PC since 1998, FF8 since 2000. They've had a long time to get it onto Steam. I know there are steamdb entries for both games for the last three months, so at least it's finally going to happen. Here's hoping they don't cock it up somehow.

the original pc release of ff7 was a buggy mess though. The one they recently put on their store they fixed that and added some new stuff.

I beat FF7 3-4 times on ps1, FF8 3 times (or something like that, you can get a lot faster to the ending with gameshark kkkk), and FF9 2-3 times. Now I see that only FF8 got a history that would not need a sequel, it is absolutely complete, and is the only game on the series I've seen that doesn't make a cliche love story with tons of "hugs", FF7 "ends" with stars (until you turn off the console ¬¬), FF8 ends with a kiss and the flying garden going through the skyes at night xD

Well 7 & 8 seem to be releasing on Steam, according to the links people have been sharing.

Therefore, I would appreciate a signature, just to improve the chances of it happening :)
