If anybody wants to get out of Midgar, save the game, and mail me the game and a memory card, I have a PS1 somewhere around here, and if I can find the plugs and a controller I'll totally play the game for another 2-3 hours post-Midgar.

Or you can come to Oakland, play the first few hours of the game while reading any important dialogue out loud to me while I play something awesome like Tetris, and then pass me the controller when the game gets good, we can do that too.

 

 

What's the point. Final Fantasy VII is terrible. Even beyond Midgar the game is a joke.

He might like the part where Cloud dresses up in drag to seduce a creepy fat casino boss.

That might get him until you save Aeris from the scientist who tries to force her to commit beastality... because apparently he hasn't learned that cats can't impreggnate people.

Or up to where you find out Sepiroth just has a big Oedipus complex.

Man that game was messed up.



Will we ever see another RPG like FFVII? God I hope not.



who says squall is emo?

Cloud is waaaaay more emo than Squall XD

ROFL

I know we have several weekly threads about Final Fantasy, but I just beat Emeral Weapon without using the underwater materia - I can't help myself (Final attack + Pheonix / Knights of the Round and Mimic FTW!).

For years I have played RPG's. They are my favorite genre of games, and FFVII sits at the very top. The game is absolutley massive. It a decade old and still I play it almost every week on PSP. I can never get enough of the Story, world setting, cast of characters, and absolutley outstanding materia system incorporated into ATB. It is a perfect RPG in almost every sense of the word

We are not living during a time of bad RPG's. Just This year we got huge titles like Lost Oddyssey, Valkyria Chronicles, Fallout 3, I.U, TLR and the World Ends With You. All amazing titles in their own right, but they have nothing on the champ, which begs the question, will there ever be another?

 

 Lets see, the game starts out with a bunch of terrorists attacking in a big city, cant decide on the style it wants to use(low poly SD characters in game, slightly more realistic ones in cutscenes), has a retarded looking swearing MisterT knock off as one of the main characters and a story that makes no sense whatsoever withing the framework and world they present it in.

 

Yup sounds like the worlds best RPG.

 

Sigh.

Majin-Tenshinhan - So name some games so that I can expand my library... I've played RPG's for a really long time and its my personal favorite. I've never seen people beg for a remake as much as I see them do it for this one. As far as I know FFVII is the best selling Final Fantasy game...by about 3 million sales or so (which is pretty big considering were talking about the gap between 6 million and 9 million). It also sits at 92 on Metacritic as well as Gamerankings, making it the 10th highest rated RPG on gamerankings. The only (J)RPG's to have a higher rating are P4 and FFIX.


BY the looks of this the title of this thread should have been: "Give me a list of RPGs you enjoyed more than FFVII":)

 

 FFIV, FFVI, Skies of Arcadia, Mario and Luigi partners in Time, Super Mario RPG, the Phantasy Star games(especially 1) Fallout 1 and 2, FFIX, FFXII, Landstalker, a bunch of Zelda games and I could go on for a while here.

You guys bashing VII back and forth like this...then explain to me this...

Why is VII the only one to get the most spin-off's pre-quels and sequels!

VII is also the only NUMBERED Final Fantasy to have its own movie.

It even has its own official Anime film.

And its quite obvious its fanbase is largest among the rest...

Then again you guys are entitled to your opinions, although the clarity of it all is that VII is infact the Final Fantasy game that put Square were they are today.

So in my personal Opinion... Final Fantasy VII > Everyother...

Of course.... Untill Versus XIII comes out...

Then...

Versus XIII > Every other Final Fantasy.

All in my "honest" opinion. ~_^

 

 You are right in that it put Square where they are now.

It put them on the path to bankruptcy so that they were forced to merge with Enix in order to stave of certain disaster.

Yeah that's the best anybody's ever done to get me interested in this game actually.  I'd never heard about any of that crazy stuff.  All I ever hear is about how all these emo youngsters cried when some girl died and they never got over it.

Wrong! It was the first Final Fantasy movie that screwed Square over, do your history man.

VII made famous, there movie first movie, i forget what it was called made them go down hill, jeez.
