Final Fantasy 7 chopped up in 3 parts, released over 8 years.

I was looking forward to a 1:1 remake with next gen graphics and was extremely satisfied and happy we got what we got.

as others have stated, the remake gave us far more context and depth with the cast.

when its all said and done; with the 3 releases, no ones going to give a fuck that it was 3 separate titles.
