I looked up the old thread here, but it was too old for me to "re-open" it. But lets get to the point!

I know there are people out there who harbor malice towards square and FF7, but I really don't care about that, this thread was created to show off the "new" trailer (new to me anyways). Here it is. (The movie is in japanese, along with the apple site you view it from, but its automatic if you have quick time)

Once again this isnt a thread to bash the FF series or square, but just for us to all watch it and say "damn....thats a good looking CG movie!"

Any thoughts?

Saw this trailer during E3, and have watched it a few times since <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> Every trailer makes me want this movie more and more, and at long last we have a release date to wait for. No word on the UK / EU release yet though, so if its gonna be long after the US release I think I'll have to grab myself an import! Kinda sad to hear the cinema releases are highly unlikely to happen (apparently its too late to really make arrangements for this now, but they were keen to try and get it in cinema's on limited release, probably only in Japan), but perhaps its for the best I suppose as I wouldn't want anything to do with my beloved FFVII flopping!

The trailer itself is much like the others I guess, but I do love seeing the other characters a bit more fully than earlier trailers. Ah Yuffie, why do people hate you so? When I get my own house, I'm totally getting a pet cat called Yuffie <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> Ahem.

Nothing wrong with that, I just never played Yuffie that much:P.

Anyways was the release date in the trailer the Japan release? I honestly don't care to have the movie translated to english, in fact Id rather it not :P (I just need sub titles).
The fight scene with the "summon" or "weapon" looks like its gonna be a doozy!

Awww you missed out man, Yuffie was, at least for me, about the toughest character out of the bunch. Her second lvl.3 limit "Doom of the Living" was almost as tough as Cloud's "Omnislash" (actually tougher for me - 15 hits, often at 9999 due to her maxed out Luck and Strength ), and since it was only a lvl.3 limit it built up quicker. Her maxed out agility and luck also meant she only rarely got hit by attacks, and when she had sneak attack paired with morph all on her weapon "conformer", it meant she did full damage morph's on all the enemies at the very start of pretty much every fight and so killed (and morphed) most enemies without pressing a button Only Yuffie could do full damage morph's - very useful for grabbing as many stat increasing sources as possible from the sunken gelnika.

But yeah, thats enough about uber-Yuffie and how I spent way too much time on the game! The given release date is for Japan but its been confirmed that the release in the US will be within a week or something of the Japanese release. It will also apparently comply with Sony's standard DVD content, which apparently means there will be both Japanese with subtitles and a dubbed english track...and that had better be bloody true.

I'm really looking forward to this one. I'll just have to beat the game first, played until Sephiroths (sp?) cave, and then I stopped for some reason. And that was a year or something ago, so I'll beat it from the beginning.

Aaaaah! I'm not alone!
Ozzy, you have RPG closure issues. You know that once you enter the cave that the end, you can't realy go back. But Omnislashing Sephiroth at the end is most satisfying. (except when I first did it, and he attacked me first, giving a rather damp squib type counter attack. Replayed from my last save straight away though.)

You can go back Mephs - you can climb back out and get back in the highwind, then fly around and get everyone's ultimate weapons, lvl.4 limit breaks, fight the WEAPON's, and generally f**k about <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

I know. Hence "realy". But its the final path, as it were.

Oh, I was shocked and, to be honest, downright f**king appauled to see that Reno is holding his Cane/magical stick of poke-dom in his RIGHT hand in a still. He's LEFT handed. Freaks. When I get my copy, I'll be watching it in a mirror, for authenticity's sake. For SHAME Square-Enix, for shame. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/sad.gif">

They wouldn't make quite such an oversight I don't think <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Perhaps his left hand was tired in your shot :P

Hmmm....well thats an actual screenshot, rather than a wallpapery type thing.

Note that that "Loveless" is still running...

I stopped playing partially because my friend told me my party sucked and that all his characters did 9999 in damage with many of their attacks when they were on the same level while mine did 2000-3000. Also I was trying to get "Knights of Round", or what it's called, but never succeeded to breed a golden chocobo.

That golden Chocobo was indeed challenging but doing it twice made me smile <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">
Have you seen the Playstation 3 trailer for it? It shows the intro of FF7 but in high graphics.

Ozzy, your friends are lying to you. The final fights are a pushover, and you can get your levels up to scratch with the enemies in the cave. But if you're starting from scratch (a good idea) don't run from the frickin battles. Other than the weapons, the hardest FF7 boss for me was Barret vs. Dyne. Took me about 10 attempts (3 right, 3 up from the desert prison, if I remember correctly).
Actually, this thread has revived my love of FF7 that I'm going to start from scratch also.

Otzman - ignore your friend, its pretty normal to be doing that sort of damage at the end of the game. The final few battles have their difficulty scaled so they are challenging but possible no matter how strong your party is anyway. Of course it is capped, so with my stupidly powerful party I managed to beat the end bosses without equipping any materia and only using the weapons each character begins with <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif"> The battle against Bizarro Sephiroth using 3 parties took forever - one of the three parties I was using was horribly weak compared to the others, and had a very hard time. Damn Cait Sith and Red XIII and their rubbish limit breaks!

There's something special about grown up men dressing like their favorite game/anime character. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

Rufus does not look very happy! And how about this for some of the WORST COSPLAY EVER...



And thats just a third of the line up - the others are equally as bad! I mean just look at that guy third from the left; all he did was put on some boots <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

"Travis, as a Chocobo from Final Fantasy 7."

It's incredible that they even participate in a competition with a "costume" like this one.

HA HA HA haahaha HAHAHAHA hahaha That is the worst costume I have ever seen!

Funny though because I was thinking about how cool it would be to ride on a Chocobo around town and people stare at you as you go past them really fast.

And they go 'wtf is that thing!?'

It would be so funny if Barret had a 'Mr T' voice on FF7 Advent <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">
