    Here's a shock: I'm a huge fan of Final Fantasy 7. It was my first entry into the Final Fantasy series, one of the first games I ever played on the Playstation, and it solidified my love for Square's brand of RPG games for a good while, which could be viewed as both a blessing and a curse.
    I consider myself to be pretty knowledgable about the game but recently I came across these clips on youtube of deleted scenes and locations cut out from the original game revolving around unseen areas of the Honeybee Inn in Wall Market, only accessible by data mining through the original Japanese copies of the game. I'm not sure if anybody else has seen them but if you're a fan of the game you should give them a watch, especially for some appearances by Palmer and the poor Shinra Manager. :lol:





    There's also some bonus dialogue in the game which you can only see by debugging previously unattainable members into certain scenes that you can't usually get them in a normal game. Nothing that will turn your world upside-down but it's still interesting that they have lines written.


    It's pretty cool to still be surprised by a game almost 15 years after it was released. Makes me wish for some form of updated re-release all over again.

    I watched the first two and they're cool. I like FF7 a lot too except the Chocobo breeding. My favorite is Chrono Trigger.

    Watching these reminded me of how great and involving the game world was, but also had me start wondering where it all began to go wrong for SquareEnix and their flagship series when I started to think about the more recent games.

    I think the hilarious localization team is to thank for some of it's charm.

    There really hasn't been a line of dialogue like "this guy are sick" since.

    Ah, how could we forget.

    That was more of an intentional line than a grammatical flub through, right?

    It's not as if Aeris was intact.

    A virgin girl over 20?

    Even in the fantasy genre that's ridiculous

    There's a lot of virgin girls over 20 but you're not going to see a fat/manic depressive/ugmo girl in a RPG game.

    The point being that Aeris has superior emotional constitution to Tifa

    Are you even denying that you are attracted to broken women Sketch

    You seem like the kind of guy who always wants to date broken women

    No I agree with that, well to an extent anyway. I wouldn't say Tifa is devoid of her own emotional arc, it's just downplayed a lot more compared to the zero point of melodrama that's attached to Aeris. It's pretty hard to compete with the virginal martyr of an ancient race who comes off like a Princess Di analogue.

    I think Tifa in contrast was more down to earth or believable. And chesty.

    Also I'm somewhat attracted to crazy women, who just have the side-effect of usually being broken. And I pay for it dearly.

    Yeah that all makes sense

    Did you ever play Crisis Core?

    No, but I really wanted to. From what I've seen from videos online and such it looks like it captures the vibe of FF7 really well, more so than any other tie-in like Dirge Of Cerberus or even Advent Children. Have you?
