I don't.
The "quality" aspects of the game are already done (story, characters, setting, battle system, etc). The things that would be changed are graphics, sound effects, music quality (i hope!) and perhaps the addition of voice acting. Why would any of these things, that are already done in other new games, suddenly take 10 times longer to do?

Furthermore, I don't know if it's possible, but all the textures and models they used when they made the pre-rendered backgrounds, would they be possible to reuse in a new realtime graphics engine? This question is probably mostly aimed at Omecle, no guesswork from others if you don't know for sure, please :p.

I mean those things are pretty detailed and stuff, they might hold up to realtime PS3 standards.
