They also lost Kingdom Hearts 1 source code. I believe they never found it. I think they reverse engineered it from the game disc or something like that.
Either that or it was like FF7 mobile, where they used a pre-launch build of the game that they slightly cleaned up. (you can tell this mostly by the bugs in FF7's mobile/PC versions which weren't in the PS1 release.)

Its just so crazy to see a huge company just lose or delete the source code for their games lol I mean back then storage was at a premium but jeez, protect the asset! Silent Hill 3 was lost too or deleted.
Things were rather different back then, and like you said storage was a premium. I don't think most game companies thought they would be doing things like remasters in the future.

Ah, yes, Remasters are the next way of squeezing out money from us poor saps who already bought the game at least 4 times now.
Once from PS1, once from PS3/PS4, once from Steam, and once on Switch.

Yea, nostalgia really hits us. Younger folk go for new flashy things/convenience (I.E. Mobile/F2P) while older folk go for games they've either played before or are similar.

this is true. I almost fangirled at the DQ theme song -at work.
been playing smaller games and retro recently (as opposed to tripple A games) to just kinda chill
They have done a good job with a few of the remasters, I got X/X-2 and XII, played through them all, the last two in Japanese (way better). And DQ11 looks like its going to be perfect for Switch.

Yea, it's too bad I have an issue with replaying/watching things I've already played/watched before.
There are very VERY few games I can get myself to replay and even then I almost have to force myself.
Not me, I can replay any old game if I liked the combat system. That's my only requirement. I have played through Star Ocean 3 countless times because the combat is just addictive.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
