I believe it should be remade so that everyone who drooled over the game as an 8-12 year old can go back, play the game again, and realize that it just isn't that great.

Well, if it was 'remade', it might be made better. But as it stands now, its a controversial game that some obsess over and others hate with a passion. As someone who's played all buy one main FF game, I ca honestly say its not as good in design, character development or plot as others. But that doesn't mean it couldn't be improved with a remake.
If it gets the treatment of something like FFIV DS though, it would just be a port with upgraded graphics. And at that point, I could agree it was lackluster.

I'm not saying it's a bad game, I'm merely saying that it isn't great. Waaaaaay too many cutscenes, non-interactive bits, the story is pretty meh overall, both Cloud and Sephiroth are bitches, and the gameplay isn't phenomenal enough to make up for it.
FFVII was right around the time I started figuring out that WAY too many JRPGs are similar games repackaged with the same whiny characters, ridiculous leveling requirements, and gameplay structure.
When you think about how Fallout released the same year as FFVII, you really start to realize just how lackluster the game was outside of its 3D gameplay and intricate cutscenes. Fallout was infinitely more fascinating and forward-thinking than FFVII, even if its technical merits paled in comparison.

It always been a great game. I mean Polls results proves it and just having dabate over it now proves that as well. Face it nobody cares about the other games in that era. It was all FFVII. It is always brought up and always requested in interviews.. Even Wada twitted about a remake on his twitter page and it exploded with request to do it. he was forced to close his page because there was to many request. lol

Yeah, no one cares about other games from that era. That's why people have been clamoring for Half-Life 3 for years and last time I checked, Fallout 3 sold just a *few* copies for Bethesda with hype largely based on the phenomenal first and second installations of the series. Meanwhile, FF has been on a downward trajectory for damned near a decade.
Just because you were 12 when those games released and they were too complex for your age bracket does not equal "no one cares".

Oh please...Like I said before no one cared about Half Life in 1998. Now It is just another shooter which is popular in the west. Yeah sure Half-Life sales is 9.3 million for PC and Half-Life 2 is 6.5 million. Seems like its going downwards to yeah?
Fall Out 3 and Half Life 2 is not in the FF7 era. Do you understand?
