Waiting for a Final Fantasy VII remake to happen is like someone wishing for a unicorn to drop down from the clouds and take them to campus on a dreary day. Even though unicorns are real -- this according to the Wikipedia page I just edited -- it isn’t likely that one will randomly care about human desire. Still we wish for both, and thus Yoshinori Kitase’s latest FFVII-related comment tickles the emotions. Speaking at gamescom, the FFXIII producer said FFVII news might come “at a later time.”
“As for a VII remake,” Kitase told VideoGamer, “all I can advise right now is to play the PSN release that just came out for the time being. Maybe, perhaps we'll have some news for you at a later time."
Kitase’s words lack a teasing feel, so we won’t be holding our breath. It seems like Square-Enix remains content to milk the benchmark title in a variety of ways, including bad movies and PSN Store ports.

...Or maybe I'll download the PSN version and try again :(
The only reason I can see is to introduce the game to the audience who is intimidated by the outdated graphics.
Leave it alone, and finish FFXIII and VS! Hell, maybe make a new franchise that doesn't suck.
So, we are still a few years short of that announcement.
Also, it would only be out for the PS3. Sony has publishing rights to the title Final Fantasy 7. This is a pre-emptive strike at the "OMG it should come out on the 360 too!"
I'm somewhat serious. It'd be quicker to make than a current-gen remake and would be guaranteed to sell well. Get on it, Square.
This is it.
Looks like FF7 fans just need to grin and....Barret
:)
Statements like that will only Cloud people's feelings. Cait you see that?
But in general, I'd love a VII remake, but what I really want to see is them change the story. Like, you-know-who lives and everyone shouts, "WTF!"
FFVIII is the only game that needs a remake. If they make VII look anything like Advent Children they are going to have to scrap the awesome dress subplot and change the outfit of Tifa.
I see nothing about wikipedia and unicorns being real.
On a side note, why does everyone hate on the graphics so much? The characters, the battle screen, and the overworld (everything in 3-D) were sub-par, yes. But for the other 70% of the game one gets to feast his or her eyes on the static backgrounds, which in my humble opinion are some of the best artwork in any videogame ever.
for the love of everything that is sacred...NO.

Also, my nipples get hard just thinking about
*a FF7 PS3 remake. Even if it had nothing new other than graphics.
I fucking love you sir.
Tactics FTW!
durr hurr!
I still want my FFV and VI remakes first!
However, it would be interesting to see if they would throw away the outdated concepts or change certain aspects of the game. For example, I'll call this the "dollhouse view". When your character enters a building, the ceiling or wall is see through. Would they keep this? or give the character a 3rd person, behind the back view. My point is, gamers today need immersion. They get pissed when they have to switch discs or wait through installs because it reminds them they're playing a game. And alot of aspects of ff7 detach you from the game.
Also, would they be able to keep some of the more mature content of the game nowadays? (Group Room at the Honeybee Inn ring a bell to anyone? ..Rofl) Also, some of the dialogue, can people really imagine it with voice acting? "I'll rip them off" "I'll chop them off" "I'll crush them". Not to mention, between Barret and Cid, if the game was a movie, it would easily be R-Rated just due to their language. What're they gonna do? Bleep them out? With the addition of modern voice acting, the dialogue will have to be changed.
People need to realize with a full remake, they won't be getting a true remake, they'll be getting a modernized, censored rendition of the original. Personally, I'd buy it and play it, but would probably be unfulfilled.

She should die, then after completing a bunch of tedious stuff, you get her back as a zombie, with all of her Limit Breaks changed to zombie attacks, complete with the gonk theme song.
I think Kitase has been paid to say "Just wait for it," since that's what he's been saying for the past two years. Silly Square, waiting twenty years for something is not good PR. You could have released it on PS2 during the ADvent Children stuff back in 2004-06 and everybody would have been happy.
I don't get it...a vital character, wielding a staff and sporting a pink dress with a mini red overcoat, dies, inevitably almost making me drop my controller and stop playing? That never happened...
Oh and I've seen unicorns. Soo...you guys are lying.
