They are going to make it its been conformed. It's finally happened!!! In an interview with a European gaming magazine and Nomura, he decided to let it slide that Final Fantasy VII will indeed be remade for the PlayStation 3 sometime towards the end of 2008!! He spoke of, obviously, a huge graphics enhancement, and even adding a few new Materia items, weapons, enemies, and possibly a couple secret boss battles. The "Weapon" boss battles will also be enhance, changed up, and even made more tough then they already are. Other changes Square-Enix will be making are a battle mechanics change, which no details are given at this time, different scenarios. And the biggest change of all... A new playable character!! Who this character will be is way over my head, but given the magnitude of the situation, I'm sure we'll all be surprised in the end. Nomura also said that there will be screens and possibly a teaser trailer for the game.Go here: http://www.gamespot....hp?union_id=FFA to comment and see the full interview!!

I like Final Fantasy VII and of the showing at E3 showing off the PS III and it's graphics Final Fantasy VII being remade would be great but only if for the PS3 or a console later down the line.

Given recent marketing trends: the popularity of retro gaming, FFXII's gaudy sales number after the MMORPG experiment demonstrating the brand's clout, and decent sales number for other remakes; I believe the Final Fantasy VII is due for a remake with the PS3 hardware, regardless of the opinions on this board. However, I do think we should give some thoughts on how it is to be remade. The most immediate element of the "how" would be the graphics. So if we remove the blockiness and the non textured models, how do we see FFVII's world. While many would settle for the realistic look of Advent Child, I prefer a slightly more painterly revisit of Midgar

yes i think they should remake it, but for psp, with better graphics than the psx version ofcourse, or a ps2 remake would be nice too. i don't think they should publish it on ps3 and definitely not on the next gen console after that, because that will take too long and i dont think we shud expect too much for a game that's 8 yrs old 
a ps2 version would be more than ok for me!

It'll be cool to see all the character, the summon, the background, to be remake and the magic.

I dont' think they should remake this game because they have no reason to do thatPS2 can play PS1, so they don't need to remake itIf you want to see some kind of new systemI suggest you to offer Square-Enix to make FF VII part II (like Final X part II)story may be side story or "after 5 or 10 year, since the lifestream stop meteor..."

NuH!! it will make the FF VII not original anymore..Wouldn't it be great if Square Enix remade FFVII for one of the newer systems coming out like the Xbox 360 or the PS3? The graphics would be fantastic. I for one would definatley buy it. I love the FF series.

First of all, people will want voice acting, which is an awful idea right there. One of the reasons FFVII's atmosphere worked so well was because despite the heavily cinematic cut-scenes, it felt like following an engaging book instead of a badly acted movie. Adding voice acting will immediately make it a badly acted movie."Oh, but how do you know the voice acting will be bad??!" I don't, and neither do you. I'm just looking at Square's trackrecord, and despite what zealous Kingdom Hearts fans might warble, they've not done too well.It's probable the original voices might work well, FFXII and Advent Children had a good Japanese cast, but this is Square and they will naturally dub their titles in english for the foreign market, meaning gone is that atmosphere.Secondly, no one supporting a remake seems to acknowledge how old FFVII is. Old meaning old designs, conventions and compromises. Clumsy dialogue, clumsy story exposition, clumsy gameplay (in parts). This was entirely forgivable on the PS1 because the game was simply so enjoyable, but that won't work on PS3.

I think they should just make more copies of the original game so people who cant find it anywhere can buy it.

I'm probably not a big fan as much as everyone whose posted in this topic, but I can see square-enix making huge bank off this. They'd be stupid not to.

They should definitely remake it for the PS2. They would probably throw in a bunch of new stuff to make the game we all loved that much better...

FFVII was one of the most popular from the series and if they remade it i think the fans would buy it and it might appeal to some of the new gamers that aren't hardcore fans yet. But it's not like they have too, but if they were i'd get it!
