....waitaminnit.. Yosh is right, this isn't new. It's taken straight from this interview back in March of this year.

GOD DAMN IT RINGO, WINDING US UP LIKE THAT
Also, if you look at it this way, who is saying what? Nomura stated he couldn't be capable of doing it, for lack of.. everything, apparently. Toriyama is the main guy who keeps putting forward the idea and wanting to do it. Kitase has said 'It looks unrealistic' and then flips 'Well, maybe we'll have news later...'
If anybody, it should be Nomura and Kitase's project.

Well it generates discussion anyway, so...

>My face
It was a my bad on the date, I read the wrong one and got it mixed up.
Oh please ! they still talk about that FFVII remake !? Finish Versus and Agito first darn it !
And why VII could have a full "PS3" remake while the others FF have "quickly done" remakes on the DS(even tought that the FFIV remake was pretty good)
That's a bit unfair ! Anyone agreed ?

Here we go again! Final Fantasy developer Square Enix continuing mentioning "Final Fantasy VII" and "remake" in the same breath.
Previously, Final Fantasy VII character designer mentioned the prospects of a FFVII remake, and then FFVII game director Yoshinori Kitase mentioned how he was never tired of answering questions about FFVII remakes. Now?
When asked by game site Siliconera which game FFXIII director Motomu Toriyama would want to remake, he replied, "That would be Final Fantasy VII!"
"If we had the manpower and the time to work on a project, if we were to remake Final Fantasy VII with the quality of Final Fantasy XIII it would become a tremendous project," Toriyama continued. "If we can get the number of people we need by all means that would be the one I would really want to remake."
In 2006, Square Enix released a "technical demo" depicting Final Fantasy VII as it would look in the PlayStation 3. The game was originally released on the PlayStation 1 in 1997.

Alright, Ringo, you win.
They have been doing this too long, now. Even I am getting tired of this constant repeat of these "I am interested in re-making FFVII". Just come out with one concrete statement, or keep the "I wanna do this" statements to yourselves. "ffs"
It's to do with FFVII's general popularity. No other Final Fantasy earns the praise and the nostalgia of fans as much as FFVII and that has shown with just how popular it is as a game. Seeing as its popularity and worldwide acclaim has spawned unneeded sequels and prequels today, it's natural that many would like to see the game out in full HD and as an update to accommodate the prequels' and sequels' additions to the universe. Pre-FFVII games just don't share as much level of popularity and therefore a FFVII HD remake would be far more profitable (seeing as PS3 games take so much time and money anyway).
That's what i call "Marketing love"
You're right about VII's popularity and honestly, even if it's not my favorite,i don't mind for a remake but just a graphic updatewill be nice (the rest i hope they won't touch it) that if of course if SE stop changing thier minds every months.
If they have time to think about remakes for old games, then why not think about giving us Agito . Or hell, an estimated release date for Versus and/or Agito >_>;
As for the idea of a possible remake of FF7, I'm not totally against the idea tbh. It'd be cool to see it upgraded a next-gen style of graphics, but with all the projects Square has on their hands: Kh3, Versus/Agito, and all the other shit they have, I doubt this is the right time to be talking about a remake. If anything, they should just put the fucking game up on PSN for PSP

You're right, though. If anybody is remaking this game it best be the development team from the actual game.
Dat tru.Well it generates discussion anyway, so...
Well, without sugarcoating this, they put other "remakes" on the DS because they're not as popular as other FF games. Doesn't make sense to waste money on a remake of a game that no one really enjoyed in the first place.
Not saying those games are bad, but they're just not as popular as other FF titles. Hence why they get the DS remake rather than a PSIII remake.

Did they just say the quality of XIII? Don't they mean the graphical quality? Graphics don't make a game...

Yeah, you can put lipstick on a pig but it's still just a pig... adorable... but still a pig.
I was under the impression they meant graphics-wise, not anything else. At least... that's what I was hoping.
Nice pig analogy Cali!
You would assume the retaining of a world map and the use of an airship so l doubt they will make it as linear as FFXIII, they could not any way there heaps of side quests in FFVII that involve large distances so a linear set up does not work in there favor.
Graphics is what they meant...........although in saying by the time/if they gret there arsses moving graphical quality would far in advance of what it is today!

Wouldn't matter much to me though. The focus on graphics was probably kind of the cause of XIII being the way it was.......
And on that note, I could almost care less about the graphics.
They have to have meant graphical quality, because regarding everything else.. the quality of VII soared over XIII's.
Also, they've gone through a streak of remaking all FF's numerically.. so V and VI HAVE to come before VII at some point.. probably, on 3DS because of it's new cpabilities, and the games popularity just aren't big enough for them to be on a major platform. With VII having been the first on a new major platform, it would probably follow suit with a remake.

See now there is some insight!!
The kid has a point though........maybe.......if you just want a Remake the graphical quality would be of little importance considering its not what made FFXIII lacking.

I don't see the point in remaking VII because even they claim that it'll be a really long project by which point we'll probably be over it, aside from FF7 fanboys/girls 
Anyway, the game is fine as it is. We remember it for what it was and I don't think that was graphics to fans..
I admit it would be great to see the game in advanced graphics but like many people have said, graphics don't make a game. VII has been milked enough and we already know what'll happen in the game.. so I don't see the point, aside from owning the game to complete the final fantasy set that still continues to build.
And besides, I already get my dose of Aerith in 3dness via Crisis Core so I don't really need anything else.
Also, nobody from the lead team of FF XIII should be allowed near another FF game again.

But you see, they have to find a third party developer that is willing to remake FFV and FFVI, Matrix software who remade III and IV made Final Fantasy 4 Heroes of Light. If they get enough profit out of that they might upgrade their tools to make V and VI or they might be scratched from the project (if there is one) and another developer would be assigned. Or neither (it's a hectic hunt to be sure).
Question: Is a remake really all that necessary? are we so unsatisfied with the current games that we want them to go backwards? Fine, if you want to experience your nostalgia in a different perspective (an up to standards visual one) why is it so vita to you that Final Fantasy VII should be remade on the PS3? or 360? Is it really that necessary to spend millions of dollars just for a pretty version of a once great game? Wouldn't a 3DS version be nicer? Just look at the MGS3D trailer, the graphic power is amazing. Sure cloud's face won't shine like lightning's but at least he won't be made up of polygons.
I know I'm rambling, I just wish we'd look forward to the NEXT Final Fantasy game as apposed to dwelling on sequels, remakes, spin offs, movies and fuck all.
I'm not saying that I personally want it remade on PS3/360, I'm just saying it's a lot more likely that it would. VII was the first to be made in 3D on the PS and caused quite a stir. SE can only realize that to do that again, it would have to be remade on the same platform, 2 gens later.
Also, is it necessary? No. Are newer games of the generation so dull that we need to go backwards? In some cases, yes. Are we just trying to relive nostalgia? Possibly. But SE claim to be all about giving the gamer what they want. They try to please their fans. And a lot... a lot alot of people have asked for a remake. And you know what? SE will eventually remake it. If anything above their fans, they're about making money. And with a remake, they could cash in quite a lot for it. You have the nostalgia gamers of the past who played VII, and then you'd have the new generation of gamers who heard about this fantastic game that they had to get it and play it as well.
If anything it could make them enough money to set every employee up for retirement. They have the money, power, employees and everything to accomplish it. They just keep dangling it in front of our faces so that at one point, we're not expecting it.. and then BAM. Oh, here it is, and we're have done.. or summat like that.

I understand all that, I just had to let it all out. I understand it's sensible to deliver to fans, demand = delivery. I'm just not happy with what used to be my favorite series of all time. MMO's, overblown unnecessary production, forced spin offs and sequels.. the irony here is that I'm clinging to the nostalgia of a simpler time in the life of Final Fantasy. Those good old days of "Oh man, FFVIII rocked!, I wonder what IX is going to be like : D". Anticipating the next entry in the franchise, it's something I want to experience once more. God knows when XV will be out, or showcased for that matter.
It just hit me that I had to wait 6 years between Final Fantasy IX to XII to get a Final Fantasy game I truly like, and I'm still waiting for one that I -would- like. I don't appreciate any of the spin offs and sequels to VII and I sure as hell don't appreciate this joke of an MMO (XIV). XIII was the worst gaming experience I've ever had (I mean it, I truly do) and to be frank, I'm not all that optimistic about Versus XIII either. Ugh, it's a difference in opinion is all, I'll just shut up now.
