Did these conversations not happen last gen when lots of people wanted one for the PS2 and it never happened. I don't really think we will see one this gen either.

I think it depends. Once the FF7 spinoffs start losing a lot in sales they'll release a remake to try and reinvigorize the FF7 brand.

I think that's why they're afraid to re-release it. They think it might actually hurt the brand more then help it.

 

I think it might be because of the production costs. To remake the entire game for PS3, i'm pretty sure it would cost Square quite a bit of money. They wouldn't want to put a ton of money into a simple remake.They had the oppertunity to remake it on the PS2, when the budget would have been lower and the sales probably higher, and they still didn't do it. I really don't see them doing it now.And has for hurting the brand, i really don't think Square would care that much.

 

 


So it's too expensive for PS3. That doesn't mean they couldn't put it on another system. If it really would sell 5 Million+ easy like some people seem to think... Why not go ahead and put it on the Wii...

Or the 360. How much of the game do you think Microsoft would be willing to fund for an exclusivity contract?

Seems like they have ulterior reasons other then just cost.
