I've been hearing rumours of that for years. Is there any decent evidence I've missed? I just find it highly unlikely now as FFVII is on PSN. FFVII and VIII go great together on a PSP...
As far as FFVII, FFVIII and FFIX go, all three are PSX games, all three are FF titles, apart from that they don't have too many similarities barring the usual repeat references that pop up through the better part of the series.
EDIT: Perhaps you could clarify for us in what way they seem similar to you?
