Basically, it says that they were holding the official SE communique stating the announcement of a FFVII's remake for the PS3 exclusively.

Original text:
"LE CHOC! A quelques heures du bouclage, voilà que tombe entre mes mains un communiqué officiel de SE indiquant le "remake du tres apprécié FF VII sur Ps3, uniquement". Alors que Sony se faisait du mauvais sang avec toutes ces exclusivités qui lui passent sous le nez, voila qu'une annonce vient flatter son catalogue. SE n'en finit pas de surprendre puisque, rappellons-le, depuis la demo technologique de FF VII pour annopncer l'arrivée de la PS3, rien n'avait filtré. (...) Une démo devrait etre présentée à la prochaine SquareEnix Party."

Translated:
"THE SHOCK! At a few hours of looping, here are that fall between my hands an official official statement from SE indicating the "remake from very appreciated FF VII on Ps3, only". Whereas Sony was made bad blood with all these exclusivenesses which pass to him under the nose, veiled that an advertisement comes to flatter its catalogue. SE does not finish any surprising since, rappellons it, since the technological demo of FF VII for annopncer the arrival of the PS3, nothing had not filtered (...) a demonstration should be presented at next SquareEnix Party."

This is coming from a a highly respectable magazine as the source.

If this is true, I'm certainly getting it.  I still have the origianl FF VII and love it.

Until I see official announcement, I'll never believe in any story about Final Fantasy VII remake.

I have a copy of FF7 for the ps1, but I'd like to see what they could do with it on the ps3.  Hopefully they will do a better job with some of the translation and perhaps rework the characters' ultimate weapons.  A few of them required doing things that didn't make much sense, like Tifa's weapon.

But it's from a magazine that has a good track record of releasing correct information.  At least get a little excited.  :)

I highly doubt the source, the story is probably their strategy to raise publicity.

Sorry...its a fake.

No scans anywhere in the internets of this "highly respectable magazine", so the entire news is based off a forum post?
 I call this bs until something official comes along

Haha, I'm glad there's somebody else who agrees with me on that. FF8 was a great game, man.

To get back on topic, I think it's probably inevitable that they'll make an FF7 remake eventually. Considering how much money it would bring in, they'd almost be stupid not to. I won't believe anything until I see official word, though.

FF7?FF8?FF9 is where its at in my opinion.VII and VIII were good but nothing beats the setting and atmosphere of IX.Although VII is also awesome,I just hate the FF VIII junction system and the whole get your magic from enemies thing

8 had the better story but the battle system was whacked. 7 had a good story and battle system.

I'm sure they are seriously considering making a remake (or perhaps they are already working on one).

yeah thats the only thing i didn't like about 8 was the whole junction, limit break, and magic system. other than that it is a superb product

Heh... IX is my favorite... In fact, VII is my least favorite of the ?newer? FF games. I hope the remake is good. I will get it no matter what, though.

Hmmm SE works in very mysterious ways and they are great at keeping things from being leaked out, so this may be true. I'm a bit skeptical since it seems that there is one particular magazine in Japan (I forget the name) that SE releases their screenshots on, if I find the name I'll post it.

You and I my friend have the same likes apparently in this matter. I have my VIII copy next to me, but, a FF is a FF and its worth getting. Besides, VII was not bad, it was great too.

I wish they would remake 6 that would be awesome, imagine walking into the empires lab with all the espers floating in the tubes in PS3 graphics *drools*  But i wouldn't mind a FFVII remake since I can't seem to find it for under 50 dollars.
