@Feniris Do you know how much development costs are for the hd consoles? Square already has like 5 big games in development for the hd consoles. FFXIII, Versus, Last Renement, Star Ocean 4,an Infinite undiscovered. Now do you believe they have enough money for anything else on the hd consoles? Also lets talk about their games on the wii, and handhelds. Now even if they had the money, they would have to also finish alot of their other projects to free up some teams.Its not that they won't make money, its just they have money in so many other projects they don't have much left for the remake.

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.

It will sell 3 times lower than the original so 3-4 millions, is a remake not a original game.

If they remade it.... Hmmm.... It might be the first time a remake either kept up with sells or surpassed the original. I believe it'd be a system seller. There'd be alot of advertisement and word of mouth etc. I think it'd be a far bigger deal then most people think.

i think the effect and hype of ps3 having it would be so much larger than the actual remake.

ps3's it would sell: 2 million+ (ripple effect, mostly indirect sales)
game sales: 3-4 million as optmistic

i say around 4 million

Considering the FF7 fanboys are some of the most rabid ones in the entire industry, it would probably sell a lot.

The fact that FF7 is its own franchise is a boil on the butt of gaming.

I know, if you say anything bad about FFVII they will go crazy. Also if you say another ff was better they would just say " you must be a ninty fanboy".

 Well, they have done so with near every single remake the have released!
