The Prodigal 7th Son Returns

There have been rumours for the past few weeks but it's finally been confirmed. Final Fantasy VII is getting a re-release on the PC. This time it comes complete with 3 new features: Achievements, Cloud Saves and a Character Booster.

1997, a great year for hair.

I understand adding Achievements, all games nowadays seem to have to have these to exist in the gaming world and Cloud Saves are a neat addition, but otherwise inconsequential as I won't be using them. The Character Booster boggles my mind though, was this a complaint in the past? That it was too hard or people didn't like grinding? Well anyway it's there and if you use it you can...

"increase your HP, MP and Gil levels to their maximum, all with the simple click of a button, leaving you to enjoy your adventure"

... but why you'd do that, and spoil the game for yourself, is beyond me.

OKAY JEEZ. I was just asking when the PC re-release was out...
