This is the most awesome thread ever...

I am a FFVII fan (i'll post a pic of my Advent Children Tatto)

But then again, there isn't a single FF game haven't loved except X-2 and Tactics Advanced, but I do not count those ones as real FF games
 
Yu Yevon was pretty interesting in that it was a twist from the expected at the point you discover him. (But then, his whole schpiel is pretty pointless.) Would have been better if they had Trema instead. Seymour (who badly needs a shirt) was better written. He was more of a smart, plotting, calculative evil.
 
So a whiny superhuman throws a temper tantrum and tries to destroy the world. What's so groundbreaking about that?

Now now...Lets not taint a thread that is so far un tainted!

However I think I'm going to have to severely disagree with you... Like Goth_fiend said... Its a little more involved than that! Sephiroth was not a whiny super human! He was once in soldier, and he went crazy... And he wasn't trying to destroy the world...he was out to make a new one (although he obviously would have destroyed the world) It wasn't just his diabolicle plan that made him what he was, nore that he was a super human! But the way he acted/connection with cloud (or Zack if you must) Despite the poor graphics...or as some may state badly scripted scene. When Sephiroth kills Aeris it was un-expected...it was like an electric shock out of no where. And the fact that he could kill someone with no care in the world showed us how fucking cold he was! What made that scene even better was the connection Cloud had with Sephiroth and Aeris.

To sum it up, Sephiroth was bad ass... And everything he did was just bad ass... Think of Sephiroth as a even more powerful & scarier Adolfe Hitler! (sorry if that bothers anyone)
 
actually i don't see the comparison. Seph represents anarchy, not fascism. his actions are without regard for any other being, since his creation and subesequent employment and abuse disregarded his own life. he's out for revenge to the nth degree: born from order, to exact chaos.

honestly, i have never understood why so many people obsess over that scene, since to me it was predictable from someone like Seph, or that Aeris decided to get herself martyred. I was not surprised.

By contrast, the 'Auron is dead'/final summoning/Tidus is a dream thing in FFX was not expected, and welldone.
 
point well noted!~

I'm at the end of the 2nd CD in Final Fantasy IX now... Is it just me or is SoulCage incredibly easy for a boss? Yeh I'm at the part where you get Scarlet Hair on your team (as we speak the game is paused as I'm talking to him at Eiko's home!) You know something funny...earlier today I was speaking with someone about how Garnet is so hot and Queen Brahne is so fat and ugly... and I made the assumption that queen Brahne wasn't her real mother... Than 5 minutes ago she states just that, how her real mother died blah blah! I wasn't suprised...But I wouldn't say it was predictable... How about you guys?
 
Anyone see that they released FFIV for the GBA? I don't know how long ago they did, I've been out of the videogame loop for a really long time...supposedly after you beat the game there is an extra area that opens up with new enemies, aditional backstory revealed etc.

anybody else see the trailer for FFXIII yet? it looks awesome they're going to back to a ultra-modern style ala VIII
i have not.... i will go look now. 12 looks hot, i can't believe they'd go and start on 13 already and have a trailer even.
 
earthbound (the one I played on Snes) kicked anus.... It really did rock my soxzorz... and I did see the FFXIII trailer, I watch G4TV religiously lol, and they're covering E3 :D

On the same note what looks hot for you guys at E3? Dunno how many of you are keeping tabs on it...But yeh... Things that I'm looking GREATLY toward!

Halo 3
(The trailer they had for Halo 3 was spectacular and showed off how bungie is making use of the Xbox360's graphics... Beautiful...And of course Marty O'Donnel's music is as kick ass as ever ;))

Fable 2
(WOW was all i could say... Like I honestly loved Fable as a game, and many will agree it was a bit of a let down from what they where HYPING the game to be...But it was still a sturdy Action/RPG that kicked alot of butt! When I saw the trailer for this game I literally creamed myself... Looks awsome, Peter .M, keep up the KICK ass work!)

Final Fantasy XIII
(WOW once again... Final Fantasy 12 isn't even on the shelf yet and Sqaure Enix has already announced their next title... Looks awsome with spectacular Graphics! Although I know nothing of the story...But hey its a Final Fantasy game, so i'm sure it will impress!

SPORE
(Fuck'en eh!!! I was never a fan of most of the Sims games, like I enjoyed SimCity...The Sims-was alright...however I spent more time building huge kick ass homes than actually playing in them lol! Spore for those of you who do not know is like SIM EVERYTHING... And well is a very new idea for a game where you literaly ge tto play the role of God... (Although I thought I was already that role..WTV) I got to watch Kevin Pereira play a demo of it on the PC and the creatures you can make look fantastic and very diverse. I heard it might be comming out on the xbox360...anyone know about that?)

Gears of War
(Still looking as good as ever...cannot wait to try this game and decide for myself!)

Nintendo Wii
(Well now...I know everyone in the world including nintendo employees are making fun of the next-gen console title... And although I don't see any games to crap about (other than Zelda and Metroid) I must say the blue tooth/new remote looks like a blast to play with! Its very unique I must say! However...I'm not sure people will always stand to play their games lol! most gamers probably are not that energetic so to me its sort of a waste of time lol! But it still looks like an awsome concept and Id love to try it!
 
Well thanks to this thread, I've dusted off the PSX and started my second journey into FF7.... GRRRR. But thx for the thread! I am curious, how many people went to the Honey Bee Inn and got anal-raped? Or do you not get anally raped? I'm so confused as to what happens there... I always go to the #$%* Room instead of the "GROUP" Room....
 
Well you see I remember that one night that I anally raped you...At the Honey Bunn's Hotel...

In FFVII it comes very close to being raped yes...but it never happens lol! Thx for reminding me about that place in the game lol! I loved going back to Don Carlos mantion and have Cloud dressed up as a chick... I believe the rating should of been mature for that game sicne their was sexual content, fowl language, and Cross Dressing LOL
 
Im actually I bit worried about FF XIII now, they are going to release 3 different games all with the XIII name (calling it a part of the Fabula Nova Crystallis, or new tales of the crystal) appparently there will be XIII, turn-based RPG like we all know and love, Versus XIII which will be a more action-rpg style ala kingdom hearts and a psp title called final fantasy agito XIII (no details that I could drag up on this one) and there may be even more in development, this could be a bad sign or I could just be going crazy from FF anticipation, either way im going to be very very poor for quite some time importing these when they come out, that and 600 for ps3 and....ugh I dont even want to think about it

To kill Soulcage all you had to do was use a Phoenix Down on it.

And yes, the first time I played the game I knew something didn't seem right about that tub of lard... :erk:
 
haha yeh exactly...He is an undead so you just use a Phoenix Down... You still need to use one attack on him afterwords but still! For thos of you who did not learn about using Phoenix Downs on undead from Final Fantasy Tactics and fought soul cage and almost died or probably did a zillion times just use the trick lol!
