Awesome, near cliche-less storyline? I guess it WAS the first game where you tried the world from an ultra-powerful, not quite human bad guy--oh wait. As far as Cloud went, though he didn't follow it, he did kind of start the quite annoying "reluctant hero" character. I will give props to FF VII on another point that I didn't mention--nearly all of the characters were very well done--with the exception of perhaps Yuffie. Wench took my materia! FF I started the J-RPG for consoles pretty much... there is Dragon Warrior, but it wasn't really going to get anywhere without good competition. FF IV started the good stories. Alright, some might argue, but it did have a large compelling story for that time in video game history. I was quiet shocked at *spoilers* when Porom and Palom turned to stone *unspoilers* FF Mystic Quest... nothing new here, but it did get RPG noobs into RPGs, and it also brought FF to the American market, besides FF I for NES, and the SaGa games under the name FF Legends for the GB. FF VI started the large cast and an even greater storyline. Plus it immortalized RPG villains. Kefka is immortal!!! FF VII started the 3D rpg era for consoles and it pretty much made RPGs mainstream. It also started the oh so annoying "pretty boy thing" FF XI brought FF online... actually I love this game. XD

*readies his sniper rifle* *goes behind you and slashes your throat with a butter knife and then does an irish jig on your chest until my feet are touching the ground underneath your dea body* You are not immortal, I AM GRAY!!! DAMNIT!!!! That's the 203974th time I died this YEAR!!! I have to be more careful with my infinite amount of lives... The reasons I love FFVII so much: - THE STORYLINE!!!!! - It's just too bloody awesome even to explain how flawless itis. - Limit breaks - Duh... - Materia systems - This just made the game even better! - The personalities of the characters - I loved how everyone had some attitude. - Music - just frikkin awesome. - And the list goes on...

The characters were cool, but Cloud is a pretty boy, and pretty boys scare me.

My favorites in particular are Cid's theme, the boss theme, Sephiroth's theme, and "One-Winged Angel".

I think that IX & X had the best FF music.

Cloud is a pretty boy. Shoot me. *cough*agreeswithyou*cough* *doesn't shoot you* I am sorry, but one of my sick female friends scared me with a FF VII Japanse (no translation) comic. She was showing a friend it, and I saw Cloud and Sephiroth on the cover, and I wanted to check it out. She let me... when I opened it up I was horrified. T_T It scared me and I was scarred for life.

BANG!!!! Damn my terrible aim... you're lucky... Yeah, you see but that's a comic, not the game itself.

My God! You read a f/cking yaoi comic, didn't you?! F/ck! Yaoi is one of the most f/cked up things I've ever f/cking seen! I only saw one with Genis and Mithos... And they're CHILDREN! That's just f/cking wrong! What the f/ck is wrong with these fangirls and making beloved game and anime characters into f/cking gay lovers even though it's quite obvious that they are NOT! ... ... ... Whoa. I haven't cursed like that since the last time I played Contra on the NES. Well actually, maybe not... When I played it last, I used a certain type of l;anguage you should never use around women or black people. But seriously, what makes yaoi so special in the hearts of all these fangirls? Cloud and Sephiroth, in this case, are not gay! It's obvious in the game: Cloud likes Aerith (until she croaks, then he likes Tifa). Sephiroth isn't interested in sex at all. Why do they think this? It's immature and retarded! What's worse is this: www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=49696Completely ruins my two favorite characters in Lord of the Rings. It's an innocent friendship, for Pete's sake!

I don't mind gay people as long as they don't bother me, but after seeing those two pages I died inside. T_T Sam and Frodo are not gay, but Legolas on the other hand... I don't know... I mean he is an elf after all... and he is played by Orlando Bloom...

I mean he is an elf after all... and he is played by Orlando Bloom... I think it's best to not let the actor kill the character (After all, Val Kilmer did Batman, and Batman is STILL cool). Legolas isn't gay in the books, and he's most certainly not gay in the movie. And what was that comment about elves? Elves aren't gay. Except maybe the Keebler Elves because they're evil.

Pilgrim, if you are implying that Val Kilmer is a bad actor, you should REALLY watch Tombstone. Its pretty damn awesome.
