Re: Classic PS1 Star Wars Title Coming To PS4, PS5 This April

Wow, blast from the past. I remember playing this alot on the family PC back in 1996. I'll definitely give this a revisit. I was a star wars obsessed 12 year old at the time and this was one of the first games I bought for the PC.

I remember being impressed with the sound effects and music and the fact they filmed new scenes with real actors (this was before the prequels were a thing). Any new star wars was exciting to me.

It'll be interesting to see how I feel about it now.

I remember being gutted back on 2001 when I went to see this at the cinema. It wasn't what I wanted or expected from a final fantasy movie. There were some broad thematic links (Gaia, spirits, life stream etc) but beyond that it was unrecognisable.

I must admit though that once I stopped caring about the Final fantasy bit and just took the movie for what it was, I quite liked it. Impressive animations and technology and a surprisingly deep and complex soundtrack.

The interesting thing to me is that I've found I've rewatched this film more than advent children and feel it actually is a better overall product (Even though AC is the movie I was screaming for back in 2001!)
