FFVII Remake Confirmed. Transform Materia Fans Anyone?

Seeing the trailer I got two reactions:

My first reaction: "Shut up and take my money! I want this game now!"

My second reaction: "Play it first on Playstation 4? WTF! Give me A PC Game. I don´t want to wait release + 5 years to get a console for a single game again."

The second reaction requires a little explanation:
XBox for Fable (later for Bard´s Tale as well)
PS1 for FFIX (followed by Chrono Cross)
PS2 for FFX (followed by FFXII and FFX-2[I regret that one])
For the PC I got (minus duplicates) well over 400 working games (about 100 on CD and DVD). If we include duplicates, HD Versions and Remakes the number swells to about 600 (with roughly 200 on CD and DVD). Include Games that no longer work on a 64Bit Machine or any other reason (and can´t be fixed to work except for buying a GoG or Steam Version) and the number climbs well over 1000. Not included in any of the above numbers are Games from Magazines, DLC´s, Addons, Skinpackages and so on unless it caused me to buy a duplicate of the original game (Magazine Games aren´t counted at all or the number would be closer to 2000). I´m also only talking about real games, not stuff like FreeGames or Browser Games. (Example: FnaF would count (don´t have it) but Angry Birds (have it) wouldn´t)

2 examples for duplicates:
Example 1: Gothic II: Got the CD Solo, A Replacement after the first stoped working due to a scratch, Got 1 with the DLC, 1 (with DLC) when I got the third part and finaly 1 with a Steam Bundle making it 1 Game and 4 duplicates.
Example 2: Fable: Xbox Version (not counted du to beeing a console version), DVD, Steam and Steam HD making it 1 Game 1 Duplicate and 1 HD Version (+1 Console).

My point: I´m only playing games on a console if no other option is avaivable. Sure, you might lose a CD/DVD or the game wont´t work with your OS anymore but thanks to Steam that´s a problem of the past as well.
