The idea that you can fund a AAA game is just stupid. The biggest Kickstarter ever in terms of gaming was I believe the Ouya with 8.5 million. You can add 10 or even 20 million more to be nice and it probably won't be enough to make a full FF VII remake the way both SE and fans want.
To put things in perspective, FF XII costed $48 million to make. It is speculated that FF XIII costed at least $60 million

I'm pretty sure Star citizen has gone above 20 millions.
edit: apparantly its above 38 million currently. Heck thats very close to the funding of AAA games.

Are you talking about Kickstarter? because after a Google search it says they pledged $2.1 million
Edit: I'm looking at the Kickstarter page and it says $2.1 million, the stretch goals however show the $6 million mark was made.

Sucessful kickstarter campaigns dont necessarily end on the 30 days of the kickstarter website.
Go to the star citizen website and you can donate even today. Or was your whole theory limited to the 30 days or kickstarter? :p
Star citizen is the first game that can be considered AAA to be funded by a kickstarter.
