Well it will probely be at 2010 or 20011 cause they will probely only realese it after FFVI DS so it's a long time to go.

 Your right davygee 8)

They could just simply port FFVII to the PS Store... the PSP does emulate PS1 games. That way it would boost PSP and PS3 sales.

That's been my problem with all of this craziness - we all seem to be assuming that a FFVII remake would be exclusive to the PS3 because of the PS3 tech demo, the PSP video that looks like the tech demo, and, I guess, the fact that the PSP is a Sony product. To my knowledge, that's all the evidence we have.

There's something pretty wrong with that reasoning - it should be obvious that one can't argue that 'only the PS3 can handle it' because, after all, the PSP is handling it. That's the cause of all this excitement. The Wii could easily handle it as CG, and you might be able to straight port the game to the DS. As well, is there any reason to think that the PS3 base is at all similar to the PSP base?

Exactly,

Dont you guys think that if there wasnt a remake there would be the ps1 game in the ps store by now?

Bingo, sakaguchi plot i expect to be in LO, not BD, cause well, made for japan and made by artoon /sigh

9 was great, would of liked zidane and a few others with better design, and a few other things, like better trances, but besides that  great game if you liked the original FF, i liked the new steps (ff 7 and 8) a little more but 9 was great

Yes 12 is a perfect example of how when they lose developers, they lose the heart of the game. The music was almost non existant in ff 12, and the story just sucked.  Period (my opinion!). What happened when they lost those two geniuses

If that bet is on will it leo j has won, if its on that it will be that its announced at the gameshow it could be either way

tech its been confirmed because of the interview on IGN

"Its not if its going to happen its WHEN"

Alright.... understand that "to be continued" means it has NOT YET HAPPENED this yes could be the original, but they wouuld have to re release it in stores or on PSN.

I wont back off, i bet he hasnt even played the game, hes dissing our hopes that one of our most favorite and classic games is not coming back so we can stop being happy so you can back off.

BD has already been reviewed highly on here, and highly in many parts. Made by artoon, id say the developers did rather well. Lo should be the test of Sakaguchi and his story telling, and of uematsu music.

Also still have yet to finish 12, im on the rhittorachs or whatever, and i have no motivation to finish it, story was so bland dont really care what happens to who, that and im sick of running up and watching my guys do the same things over and over....

All that confirmed for me is that Square needs to stop re-using old properties and start making good games again (except for stuff that Mr. Tactics/Vagrant Story/XII does). Jesus did they rape those character designs. Fugly CG, that only stirred anything by replicating a lower-tech CG with better art design.

Anyways, at least Enix is still making good games.

Square has been dangling this prospect over the heads of fans for almost a decade now. It's naive to think they'd so readily rush into a game that they themselves say would take at least 5 years of development to produce.

Most FF7 fans have lost faith in the prospect of a remake as well, looking at how Square has handled characters and the world of FF7 in Advent Children and Dirge, its hard to image a remake of FF7 itself would yield anything more than more dissapointment and loss of nostalgia.
