The Xbox Originals line was separate from XBLA, and has to be considered separate in that sense.

Watchmen came in at 1.2GB, almost as big as FF7, but it had the advantage of tying in to a very popular cinematic property at the time of release and not being a re-release of a twelve-year-old game.

Its the same thing, Originals and Arcade are still both downloadable games.

Like i said, there is no reason why FF7 wouldn't fit onto the marketplace.

There is a difference, if only in presentation and allowance of size.

Final Fantasy 7, as an unenhanced port of a game that was not the belle of the ball over a decade ago, is not going to be given the same leeway as an enormous, completely original tie-in to a currently popular intellectual property.

That, of course, is assuming Square even assumes that there would be a large enough financial return on the deal, which they very well may not.

If its not worth putting the original on the 360, then what would be the point of putting the remake on the 360?

Saying it wouldnt bring a large financial return is IMO, daft. 360 owners love the Live content, and not to forget, the JRPG fanbase has been drawn to the 360 now with all the recent games and with the inclusion of FF13 360... it makes it a dead cert that it would sell just as well, if not more than the PSN version.
