The new trailer features the first CG scenes as well as gameplay footage. FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE will be told across a multi-part series, with each entry providing its own unique experience.
IF... this means what I think it means... and Squenix decides to sell these 'episodes' for a total over the standard $60 price tag for a regular game... I will NEVER buy a game from them again.
I really hope this isn't the case.

Someone on Neogaf made a rough translation of an interview with some guys developing the game:
Kitase: From the beginning, we have considered it impossible to remake FF7 into one single game. Althought it's impossible to tell you the details about the splitting at the moment, please wait for our further announcement.
Nomura: If we tried to stuff the whole game into one release, some part of the game would have to appear as digests. We'd have to remove some contents from the game, and it would be difficult to add more to the game. Considering that a full remake of the original game must be achived, we have decided to split the game into episodes.
Kitase: Taking the No.8 street shown in the video this time, even just this is already highly dense. If we are to remake the content of the original version at that quality, it would have been impossible to do with a single release.
Splitting the original version into episode with nothing dropped, as well as adding complements, and remaking the game in its full volume is what we are thinking.
I hate indies. They've really cheapened this console generation. I've never been one to use the word 'hipster' but the people who 'celebrate' these games and their devs are definitely that.
Hah, I knew Bungie would go back on their promise of cosmetic-only microtransactions.
I mean, a lot of things Bungie has said (An "amicable departure" from the Microsoft fold? Why the fuck do you hate Microsoft consoles then?) has ended up being a lie.
I have no more podcasts to watch. No more community to spend E3 with. They had the best video reviews of all the major gaming sites. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)
