Modder ‘sebastian__’ released some new screenshots for his Adventure/fantasy/LOST-type movie that is based on the CryEngine 2. This movie is trying to push the boundaries of Crytek’s engine to the next level and sports some jaw-dropping visuals. According to sebastian__, the following images are in real-time but they are not playable as the framerate is around 15 in low-resolutions. Therefore, don’t expect to see such graphics in video-games anytime soon (or at least until the next-generation of consoles hit the market). No release date has been announced as of yet.

Now that’s simply amazing. A fan went ahead and used the Unreal Engine in order to remake one of the best RPGs from Square. Oh yeah my dear FF7 fans. Even though Square is not remaking our beloved RPG, we can now see what Final Fantasy 7 would look like with the Unreal Engine. Now keep in mind that this is a one-man project, so don’t expect polished animations and such things. As the creator stated, FFVII REMAKE has been created for two main reasons: to learn how to create a videogame and to pay tribute to one of the best RPGs ever created, which most of us love and admire. The idea is to show its 2D world in 3D in a short demo, trying to keep it as accurate and respectul as possible to the original. You can find screenshots and videos after the jump so hurry up!
