Like many of us, I love Final Fantasy VII. And like many of us, I have wanted an update to the game, a PS3 port would have been spectacular, like the tech demo Sony teased us with.
I am proposing a re-imagining of Final Fantasy VII. Obviously this would be a lengthy process involving many seperate maps, and some talented terrain and doodad use. I have started with the first few game screens from the assault on the first reactor with Avalanche.
My idea would be to have the fixed camera (or slight scrolling from occasional screens) identical to the game. I'm using screenshots from the FFVII strategy guide as a foundation. I've only spent a few hours so far, but it's given me some epic nostalgia already :)
I've also stumbled across a model extractor for the FFVII PC version, so it may be possible to add actual game models, or somebody could attempt to remake some classic characters.
Let me know your thoughts on this task, comments, concerns, questions...

There's only three or four games I play in WC3, and one is Element TD. It's one of the best TDs out there. Very glad you're bringing it over to SC2!!

But with Starcraft II's incredible engine and awe-inspiring editor, this is now possible. The gameplay mechanics have already been worked out here by the incredible Skoite, here: http://forums.sc2mapster.com/development/project-workplace/2337-final-fantasy-mod/

A little disappointed there were no submissions from FFVII...
