Lionhead boss Peter Molyneux has described how he considers Square’s 1997 masterpiece Final Fantasy VII as the game that defined the RPG genre, before claiming that the PlayStation 3 lacks any "‘oh my god’ moments."
Speaking with Videogamer.com, Molyneux recalled his time with the PSX classic, commenting, "I always remember back to Final Fantasy VII, when I first played FFVII, that to me defined the genre.”
“Those were the ‘oh my god’ moments, I don’t believe they exist. I haven’t seen many of those on the PS3,” he added.
However, Molyneux was quick to remind readers that his opinion comes strictly as a gamer, owning every major console available, despite the fact Lionhead itself is owned by Microsoft.
"This is very much me as a gamer talking, not as an industry spokesman," he said. "I’ve got a PS3, a Wii and a 360, I’ve got just about everything.”
