Sorry, no Final Fantasy anytime soon.

Think about it. FF7 is about 1.8GB. FF8 & FF9 are about 2.5GB each.

They'll probably release FF7 in UMD or something though, because they know that this would sell as water in the desert.

i dont think that cause the max size of a umd is 1.8 GB i think.
so FF8 and 9 wouldnt fit

compression my good freinds have any of u actually looked at the contents of an FF disc its all uncompressed well partly i managed to get FF8 compressed down to under 900MB and ran it in a PC EMU and it worked fine so i can see PSX game coming out for download and even if there are to big just do disc 1 disc 2 etc so then it will fit

but i heard a terrible rumor that sqaure doesn;t want sony to release them for download (probably becasue they wanna release them for PS3 maybe... like they did with FF1-6)

You cannot in this world compress a 2.5GB FF8 to 900MB without ripping anything.

Also remember that a big part of the FF discs were videos, and that can't be compressed much.

From my experience, a FF disc with 600-700 MB compresses to 500-600 at most.

most people will upgrade us 2.80 users hoped for a eloder or downgrader but never got 1 and homebrew is getting flat where did the n64 emu go? if sony lets us put ff7 or ff8 on psp what about the L2 and R2 buttons

I just hope that they figure out someway to have light FF7 and a full FF7. Light has only important videos and scenes in and full as you may expect will have everything. This will probably be a great way for sony to sell memory sticks now, aswell as the whole dvd download on to stick promise. Though I havn't heard anything about that for a while now.
*edit* Just read on this very page a suggestion that they would sell FF7 & FF8 on UMD, that is more likely.*edit*
