They're not going to make it.
Seriously, even Sony itself says that they couldn't make that game right now if they wanted to. They pushed the machine to it's limits to get that, and that was after they hand optimized everything. Long story short, they basically said that it would be impossible to get that kind of a game out within the first several years of the system's life, and they could only do it at the very end of the system's lifecycle when they've had all possible experience.
Like Zelda Twilight Princess, this game could not have been made when the Cube first came out, as no one was familiar enough with the system to make it, not even Nintendo themselves.
And anyway, the way things are leaning, its currently more likely to see FF7 on the Nintendo DS than anywhere else. After all, FF7 was originally made for the N64 and ported to the PS1 after Square got fed up with the limitations of carts.
