Because, contrary to what most people believe, it would not be a sales monster. It would sell good, surely, but not FF7-levels.

Basically, I don't think Square see the point in doing a full-fledged HD remake of FF7 when they can just as easily make a new FF-game instead and net greater sales in doing so. If FF7 were to get a HD remake, I'd probably assume somewhere around 4-5 million ... With a new FF game, 5 million is pretty much the lowest possible number it could get.

Thing is, it's a port with HD graphics. They could put their D team on it for most of its early development, kick up the production values right at the end, add the A team for a few months of polish, and kick it out the door. It wouldn't cost half of what an entirely new FF would bring, it could be developed along side several different projects without taking up too many resources, or time, and it would still be one of the best HD games.

Why aren't they doing a FFVII HD?

I think they are. I can't wait for E3 this year or next year.

Likewise.

I've thought it for a year now... Versus 13 isn't really "Versus 13". It's just something they made as a cover up for the Remake THAT's why we haven't really seen anything at all from "Versus".

Dream on bitch
