I bought the best available version of FFVII for $4.07 the other day.
Actually, many fans agree that the Steam version is the worst of the bunch.
Indeed, the music on the PC is all jacked up, though last I checked there was a modder working to restore the original soundtrack, so with work you might have something.
Most fans stick to the original PSX copy (or the PSN download) and play on console or use ePSXe with the original discs.
i would replay ffxiii trilogy.. i loved the original.. sure there were a couple of issues, but no game is perfect. i had a blast on xiii. and xiii-2. lightning returns was a bit dissapointing due to the time limit but it was still a fun game.
ffvii would be cool to go through again. i would prefer an entire rebuilt game, but i guess a hd remake of the game is the best were going to get.. would love ffviii to get some more attention. that was probably my all time favourite ff..
Just buy the PSN/Steam version if people want to play it so badly.
I got FF7 on my psp and despite the outdated graphics, the gameplay is still solid, soundtrack is one of the best of all time and the story is fantastic.
FF XIII was the worst in the series comfortably and instead of constantly returning to it they need to kill it off once and for all and bury it. If they are serious about recapturing Final Fantasy, that's what they need to do.
An FF7 Collection is really just 2 games. 7 and Crisis Core. I'm pretending the rest of it including the movie don't exist. A 13 collection makes sense to recoup losses made by extending that piece of crap saga past the first game.

Take the leap and get it.
The original does hold up pretty well despite the rough edges. Even the visuals look fine for the most part. Granted, the character models look like trash, but the prerendered backgrounds still look great. There's something really special about the art in FF games.

The character models can be fixed on the PC version with mods from the Qhimm site.
And all these games and the movie are awful. Some try to defend Crisis Core but that game feels more like some crappy anime with high production values that take too many cues from DBZ and The Matrix.

Yeah, I've seen them. They look very good. Probably wouldn't buy the PC version just for them. The original models, while horrendous, don't actually bother me that much.
@finalstar2007: I don't even see any reasoning for this. I could understand FFX & FFX2 HD because those games were actually pretty good. Doing a FF XIII collection is just a waste of time. Everyone wanted a remastered version of FF VII and SquareEnix refused to give it to us.

The XIII one isn't that hard to justify. They have HD assets already so it'd be a quick and inexpensive project compared to almost anything SE usually does. One that could both give devs experience with the new consoles and make a tidy profit.
IMO the VII project is definitely BS. I'm betting the XIII one is too, but I could fathom it.
