True, and this is one of the great things about 10. You're trying to kill a weird-ass big evil whale (it isn't really but telling what it is would just give stuff away)

There's Seymour who pops up, but he's just a distraction. There's also the... 'thing' that is responsible for Sin, but that's kinda minor in a way too, as it isn't exactly sentient

"the reason it was such a shock and so sad was that we could SEE that she was gonna develop"

It's true that she was developing from fragil uncertain young woman into knowing who she is and that she is the only one who can save the planet (mind it was her who summoned holy, not cloud, et al) Her death continues becomes even more sadder as time goes on when tifa says:  "She talked about the future more than any of us...I think Aeris looked forward to tomorrow and the future more than anyone...She must've had many, many dreams..."

however...

i always had this belief that she knew she would died (in the not really dead kind of a way), which makes her sacrifice all the braver, but if she does indeed know this, why is it that the last thing she says is 'i'll come back when it's all over'  The last image you see is of her opening her eyes and looking at you, which is almost identical to the first time you see her.



If you're really, really interested in reading more deeply into the story of ff7 and the hidden plots and a look at the main characters, proof that holy did in fact save their lives then check this out, it'll really get you thinking:

(a wee example from this site:
'Remember what Aeris says about the Promised Land, "You don't 'know' where the Promised Land of the Ancients is. You search and travel until you feel it. Like you just know, '...this is the Promised Land.'"  The Promised Land is not a place, but something you find in your heart. When Cloud is snapped back into reality at the end of the game, he says to Tifa, "I think I'm beginning to understand. An answer from the planet...The Promised Land...I think I can meet her there."')

"I just mailed the solution as i remember it to VampiraJen, so maybe she'll tell u if it works! By the way, Jen if i left something out and it doesn't, i'm really really sorry!"

Actually, i can't figure out how to get to mount gea.  i've gone up there with gold chocobo, i've tried walking up, but that bloke won't let me.  Any suggestions?

Tanky

Try it on the world map. I managed to get in from the top

The Monarch

Oh yeah and i would like to point out that the favourite character that died from ten wasn't well...oh screw this

Auron it was Auron the ultimate bad ass in the game i mean who cares about that loser tidus anyway?

Mr D

To be perfectly frank, a sequel explaining the freaky 'where is tidus' thing, and with the girls in, just doesn't appeal to me much AT ALL. I'd rather have had Auron in one. He was a VERY strong character - one of the best badasses in recent media.

The Monarch

A prequal which had you following braskas pilgrimage with auron as the main character would have been more appealing that yunas angels

VampiraJen

advent children update, for anyone who cares:




spoiler alert!  spoiler alert!

Awooga-awooga!

spoiler alert!  spoiler alert!






it isn't really sephiroth, it's clones...


aeris has been seen, like seph, in flashbacks only (of her burial)

there's a dude in a white cloak, identity unknown....

the action looks wicked, tifa vs one of the clones, cloud vs anoth on his motor bike.

cid, red, yuffie, barret, rude, reno, vincent all there.  thank fcuk there is no sign of cait sith...


i is officially pissing myself.

My tuppenceworth in a nutshell...

FF7 is the best of the series *EVER*.

There are "cheats" (easier solutions) and *LOADS* of cool stuff hidden throughout the game and I know them all. I'm not telling you what they are though. ;) I will rather tauntingly say that the best weapon for one team member can only be acquired if you have that character set as a team member when you pass through a certain area. Sneaky eh.

Nonchalant whistle.

The trailer for FF7 is still one of the most impressive trailers for a game (and in my opinion better than many film trailers) ... *EVER*

Sephiroth is the coolest villain in the series... *EVER*

http://mokkori67.free.fr/dvd-trailer/Sephiroth/Sephiroth2.jpg>

The Highwind is the coolest transport in the whole of history... (all together now) *EVER*. Tiny Bronco's kinda dinky though.

http://www.phantomcastle.it/phantom/varie_file/ffantasy_file/highwind1.jpg>

Cid Highwind is the coolest character in the entire game, but strangely under-acknowledged.

Aeris (or Aerith depending on your game version)lives on in the Lifestream. Proof of this comes at the end with the hand that's first seen reaching for Cloud before it cuts to the view of Tifa offering hers. The first hand does not have Tifa's fingerless glove on.

That's all for now folks!


Bico

I remember being mad into this at the time it came out, and even replayed it to get the Aeris' ghost thing to come up - but FF8 was better.


(runs for cover)

Tanky

WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Ooh, it's looking good isnt it?!
Who's the guy in the wheelchair then??? My money's on Hojo
Cant wait!

VampiraJen

yup, my money is on hojo, coz it would explain wherte the clones have come from.  unless it's jenova slightly shrunk from the last time we say her............

RyanKingo7

Looks fucking fantastic, ive always loved ff7, but the last ff movie was crap, i hope this is better.

The Monarch

Original Sephiroth (not a clone) my guess is the one seen in that cave in ff7 is a diliberate fake

Mr D

I expect the dodgy wheelchair guy in the trailer could be the original...
