Regardless of the truthiness of this rumor, I honestly don't trust SquareEnix to remake this game right now. Their recent suckage has been way too massive.

Not to mention that FF7 has aged horribly

I disagree. The game was never really that good to begin with. The age of the game has allowed the hype to fade and the game to be judged on its own merits. 

Well, I didn't actually say the game was great in the first place

I think a lot of the reason why FF7 is regarded so highly is because it was many peoples first experience with an RPG, not to mention it had pretty cutscenes and the death of the main character.

Other than that, its combat system was horrible. And any RPG where you can make each character identicle in stats has some fundamental problems. Oh, and every man looks like a chick plus tifa is such obvious fan service that its disgusting.

 

@Leo, just shut up about how great FF7 is until you actually play the game. The only reason you think its so cool is because of Kindom Hearts, but I assure you that KH is better than FF7. Seriously, you can get it for around $10 without that much trouble, and it will give you a reason to actually use your PS3.

Ive played the game, and the combat system was fantastic, i still see it better then any ff to follow it. It was a first time camera movement, limit breaks were fantastic, and summons were awsome to watch.

The battle system was fantastic, and this is someone whos played through it 4 times

 

See, this is what I'm talking about - namely people whose first experience with FF was 7.

The limit break was a development of what was present in FF6 but its name escapes me now. But come on now, "summons were awesome to watch" is why the battle system was good? You mean a drawn out mini-cutscene made tha crappy materia system better? Same thing for the camera - how the hell does that make the gameplay better? I mean, this stuff may distract you from the real problems, but it doesn't make it a good battle system.
