    I thought they had gotten out of their financial troubles?

    I am predicting this for the future, not that they're having trouble just now (that I am aware of).

    The $1b figure GTAV made in the first three days counteracts your comments about the industry at large, but I don't disagree with the other points.

    >>> Money?? I just think they dont have the balls to make it, and they are right to be scared. If they mess up with a lame FF7 remake it could backfire at them really badly..

    Square- Enix are waiting, waiting for that moment were they're in so much trouble, that they might loose everything and then they'll gamble everything on that Final Fantasy VII remake.


    They're saying no at the moment, because they're hoping that Final Fantasy XV will be enough to swing them out of the danger lines.

    "... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."

    Never is a very strong word and I think a remake will absolutely happen, although I have no idea when. I expect there will come a time that a remake will become such an easy task that they will inevitably do it. Technology advances at a rapid pace these days, and remakes that would have previously taken huge effort are now able to be done on a whim by companies as large as SE.

    April 30, 2116: Yoshinori Kitase (sporting a stylish infrared left eye) announces the assembly of a development team which will remake the Final Fantasy classics rather than focusing on new material. When asked if that will include Final Fantasy VII, Kitase declines to respond.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
