I remember seeing this from someone's journal.
I suppose the thought of a remake has crossed their minds countless times. I mean along came Advent Children and Last Order, Core Crisis etc etc. It really wouldn't surprise me if they did a remake cuz maybe many fans have demanded it.
Ever since the evolution of the PS2 & PS3, my guess is fans want a better version of FFVII to play. Look how they developed a version of FFVI for PS1 and now they've done another for the Gameboy/DS. They put FFIII on DS too.
Graphics on FFVII weren't too fantastic around the time of the PS1, maybe they put this into consideration.
I just hope it doesn't affect the story or the gameplay, or anything else that made this title one of my favourites.
