That these things exist in every installment is no excuse to disregard the lore of this game and copy/paste the characters from another. That seems to be what was asked for instead of a unique incarnation that is reminiscent of the original but not the original itself.

I may not have been completely clear initially, but this was one of my responses -

I think it would be an awesome fight/addition to the game, but I definately agree that it would need to be done tastefully and with no direct reference storywise to VII (Heck, even that could probably be done right, since we've already seen instances where different titles take place in the same universe - Final Fatasy VII and X, look it up if you don't beleive me).

See? You can't deny that spark of excitement you get when a character or boss you fought years ago is reimagined in an alternate universe XD

Also, when was Tidus referenced, I must have missed that =/

The difference is that Cloud of Darkness makes at least a tiny shred of sense. Jenova doesn't.
Not to mention that III isn't exactly the behemoth that VII is, plenty of people will have no idea what she/it is.

The Tidus reference was somewhere in the main story.
