If you enjoyed the video a Like and Comment would be a huge help✌🏼 KEY NOTE: Unfortunately had some mic issues during recording hopefully it’s not too much of a distraction, apologies.

Cloud's identity struggle at the Northern Crater and Tifa helping Cloud find his real self has to be the most underrated moment of the game. That was beautiful

Red XIII's learning the truth of his father in Cosmo Canyon was truly emotional. The soundtrack coupled with this moment is top tier

I just beat it in 2023 and I don’t regret it. As a kid I’d watched my brother play but was too young to comprehend what was going on as I was like 5yrs old. I decided to play this before the remake because I wanted to play it through the eyes of my older brother. And completing it makes me feel so proud to have played his favorite game. I’m amazed by the amount of heart and dedication that was put into making this game. There’s so much charm, emotion, and I can genuinely say this is one of the best games I have ever played in my life. I’m so happy to have played this version. Yea the new one has voice acting, but reading the text in this version allowed me to really connect and think with my mind as if I was really with the characters. The 2d background with 3d characters was a site to look at and when playing it. Gorgeous looking game. I think of how technology is now with modern graphics, but the effort and artwork that went into this with the music and story is just unbelievable to me. To think someone could make such a masterpiece just makes me happy. And for anyone who has played or yet to play, I just would like to say you will not be disappointed! This version over the remake and I have yet to play the remake. This game came out in 1997 and there will be nothing ever like this!

Man I love FF7 so much. I remember coming home from high school in the late 90’s I couldn’t wait to play more FF7. I’m sitting here a 43 year old man, and I still play FF7. This time though, I bought durning the Steam sale. I modded it just a little to clean up the images. It looks pretty good for a ps1 game.

Short answer to the title of this video: Absolutely yes.

Sephiroth turning his back and walking into the flames in Nibelheim will always stand out to me

Cloud struggling with his identity was life-changing for me as I battled with depression and suicide at the time. Albeit he is not a real person, he gave me hope I could find myself too. And like Cloud, it was through the help of others that was the key. The og graphics are charming, even after all this time it's fun to pick up and play even if it's just to run around the Gold Saucer for the mini-games.

I played it many times from 1997 -1999 and again in 2021 after I played remake and am still obsessed with the game. So many memorable moments. I loved Don mansion, the golden saucer and chocobo breeding, the cosmo canyon scenes, the forgotten city, chasing and defeating weapons and the characters storylines overall is brilliant. As an OG player I even like the grinding, jankyness, materia and team changeover issues and old graphics haha. the music is top class.

Is this even a question? FF7 is worth revisiting every year by every developer from every age group despite their interests for the sake of reminding us what great ambition can look like.

I just replayed this game last year and having played it when it came out and a few times after it still was a different experience. It actually hit harder and i found myself getting quite emotional several times. Some nostalgia, but mostly just witnessing it with more life experience. It's a thing that actually gets better with age. Everyone should play this game.

The atmosphere, the gameplay, the music, story.. this game has absolutely everything. An experience that truly deserves its place in history. #masterpiece

Maybe it's cause my dad raised me on the 50s monster movies and cartoons that he grew up with, but I actually don't find it difficult *at all* to emotionally engage with a product from waaaaaay before my time. I first played FFVII in 2011 and even then I knew it was the best thing I'd ever touched. If you've got the open mind for it, I absolutely recommend giving it a try, especially with all the changes Remake is making to the story and characters.

I played it as a teenager (early 2000s) but never made it past the Gold Saucer. I returned to it over 15 years later and the one thing that stuck with me, and always will, was the world map theme.

I remember watching my older brother as a youngster in 2004 play this from beginning to end, and marveling at it. It was my introduction in to the FF universe and I've played every single one since (except the MMOs...). I recently played the original for the first time myself during COVID lockdown on our still functioning PS1, and I think you hit the nail on the head in this video. I remember spending an hour playing with my materia late game and actually just thoroughly enjoying it, the battles are just well-paced enough to not be a slog (the theme is my ringtone), and the story is probably my second favorite in the series (FF6 takes the cake, honestly). This is the game that made me not only a FF fanboy, but a Square/Square Enix fanboy. It holds a special place in my heart, as probably with most people who have played it. If you have the time, please do pick it up and enjoy the journey. It's so worth it.

I first played this when i was 7, it was the first game i had when my parents bought me the ps1 in '99. I sit here as a 30 year old, my one and only tattoo dedicated to this game, i am obsessed. I have always viewed this as my favourite game, and i always will. It means so much to me, in my eyes it really is perfect.

The single most important game I've ever played in my life, used to 100% at least once a year until 2015. Love the game and love the video! Throwing shade at Cait Sith made me die 😂

I think the remake of ff7 changes so much about the feel of the game and characters that it’s absolutely worth replaying the original

I'm 16 hours into a 21 hour playthrough video. This story is amazing

Just finished the original ff7 yesterday, loved it so much even though I’m not the biggest fan of the combat, the story and soundtrack makes it worth 1000 times. 100% recommend!

lovely video, brought back so many videos. Also a scene that sticks in my Mind rent free is,

I'm not much of a gamer, but a friend told me about FF7 about a month ago and that got me hooked on the series. I watched someone's playthrough of the remake first because I was afraid I didn't have the reflexes to play. I'm so used to Pokemon mechanics, where I take things slow and methodical. I loved what I saw from Remake and I didn't want to wait around with Rebirth, so I decided to play the original about a week ago...its an experience. I have a few qualms with it; most of which are the "mini-games" that feel less like minigames and more like chores such as the button sync or the big jump (which I'm stuck at the moment) I feel like Remake did a better job with that mechanic as the minigames actually are minigames. But yeah, I'm really playing for the story because I really wanna know what happens.

Maybe we just disagree on what we consider backstory for a character but Vincent does get some character growth and his own side quest. You have to stumble on it but you eventually find Lucrecia's cave and you not only find out who vincent was but what drives him in optional cut scenes. Its also how you get his ultimate weapon (or LB not sure which). Most importantly you find out why he feels he needs punished

Memorable moments for me. Waking up in the prison cells in the shinra building where everyone's been murdered by jenova. The raid on midgar. The WEAPON being wrecked by the junon Canon.

I really disagree with how you dislike the world map. That is one of the best aspects of older final fantasies. It really gives you the scale of the world. Newer titles like FF 15 and 13 and even 10 really don't give the same feeling.

It's a tough one because ever crisis looks amazing even though I deliberately don't play games on my phone, but with how they're messing with the story on remake I suggest playing 7 now. I never played the OG, played remake and was so into it I played the OG. I'm so glad I did

Yes, a resounding yes. I played parts of this game throughout my life, but only in 2020 at the height of the pandemic did I boot up the game and play it from start to finish. It was easy to see what countless JRPG were inspired by, and the struggles the characters went through enraptured me and distracted me from the world's mess. It's not perfect but is a watershed game that solidified its place in gaming history.

The gameplay and visuals can be grating a lot of times, but the story makes up for it easily. I felt extremely drawn in by the end of it. I love Cloud as a character and I like the rest of the cast. After playing it for the first time a few weeks ago, I'm now playing the remake and I'm loving what it does to expand on the characters and lore and I'm excited to see where it takes the story in the next two parts. I can't wait to play Crisis Core Reunion and Rebirth.

Great video Prez, going through the OG for the first time recently was an amazing journey. The music, characters and story distracts from any graphical issues. It is absolutely worth the time and money to play through this game at least once ans I highly suggest people do play it if they haven't. Very excited to see part 2 and 3 of the remake, and especially excited to play Crisis Core later this year.

Whats crazy is that I was playing the original when the remake was released on psn I went straight from the OG to the Remake

I've played through FF7 more than any other game since it came out nearly 25 years ago. At least a few dozen times. I just finished a playthrough on my Swtich about a month ago. For me it's timeless.

Nothing visually wrong with this game, it looks fantastic for the hardware it’s running on. So sick of people saying a game looks bad because it’s old. This game has more life in it than most “realistic” looking games today, that’s not nostalgia it’s good game design.

Will always be a yes. It has one of the greatest stories told in any media.

You can't deny that FF7 was the catalyst that made JRPG a super global mainstream genre. You can like it, or you can hate it, but you can't deny it's cultural impact in gaming history. It is the most influential Final Fantasy game of all time.

This, and Pokémon Blue, were my first two rpgs that I played.

my favorite moment in FF7 is near the end when Cid gives his speech on the Highwind, his music is blaring in the background it still gives me chills to this day

Five most memorable moments of OG FFVII for me, in no particular order: 1) Solving the mystery of the vault inside the ShinRa Mansion and triggering of the fight with Lost Number 2) Stumbling through Mt Nibel and deciding to ignore the Save Point and electing to trigger combat with Materia Keeper 3) First time in Cosmo Canyon, meeting Bugenhagen, learning of the Lifestream and drudging my way through the GI Cave 4) After reobtaining our Materia from Yuffie, deciding to climb the Pagoda in Wutai, resulting in a final battle against Godo 5) The absurd grinding my brother and I put in together and finally defeating Ruby and Emerald Weapon; context, we were completely unaware of Double/Triple AP weapons, it was STUPID amounts of grinding These and so many more moments are fun to revisit with future playthroughs. I've gotten to where I can not only beat the game, but also the weapons in well under 20 hours of gameplay. It's so much fun to replay this and find more efficient ways to overcome each boss. Love OG FFVII, by far and away the best game of all time for me personally. Ocarina of Time, FFVIII, Link to the Past and others are close, but this one is just so damn good.

I played the game for the first time in 2021, so I didn't have nostalgia going for me. But I found the outdated graphics and art style charming in its own way. I imagined myself in the shoes of some kid in 1997 with a PS1 & how they would've seen it. I did use a guide (thankfully spoiler-free) to tell me how to get the powerful materia and items, and even though there was A LOT of grinding, I didn't mind. The music in the game was great, and that really helps offset the mundane grindy feelings. I got the platinum on my first playthrough, so unfortunately I can't bring myself to replay it since my mind's like "You already beat this, go play something else"

I bought it two days ago. I'm not a RPG fan and I never played FF series, I played much modern games. But I think in the age of 38 I should at least know the classics of gaming in the same way, like it is a good idea to see The Shawshank Redemption even if you don't watch movies or to read Alice in Wonderland and Screwtape Letters even if books don't have special place in your life. I will start to play it in the first part of April 2024 :) Thanks for the video!

me still deciding and also me thinking i should while not yet finished watching this

“Is final fantasy 7 worth playing..” I’ve been playing 7 for the first time on Nintendo Switch and everytime I get stuck on a boss I ask myself the same question…

I’ve beat the OG FF7 about once a year since it came out in 1997. The game’s depth, its difficulty to get a perfect game, and the story still entertain me so thoroughly, and in a way no modern game can. Call it nostalgia; I call it one of the best games ever made.

The first game I played that truly rivaled feature films for depth and presentation. A true work of art and timeless in its own right.

I’d say that this game rocked the world when it came out, and the graphics were a huge factor. Its impact on the gaming landscape was on the level of the impact of star wars on science fiction.

My most memorable moment in this game comes from a unique circumstance and honestly being lied to, but I love it nonetheless. For me it's the VERY END of Disc 2 where everyone comes back to the highwind to fight Sephiroth alongside Cloud and Tifa. I can’t remember who but someone told me this was a part of the game where everyone could leave you, but they wouldn’t if you were nice to them. If you picked the nice dialogue options and acted kindly to them, then they’d come back to help you save the world in the very end of the game. This isn’t true, everyone comes back here no matter what options you pick. But I thought it was true being a dumb kid and all so I did. I always picked the nice dialogue options and because of that, this scene always hits especially hard for me. When all of that come back, it really felt like I’d done the right thing. Not just that they were coming back to help Cloud, but they were coming back to help ME.

I’ve replayed this game so many times. The longest I went without playing it was probably 10 years, but after I found the Xbox port I’ve played it once a year. The 3 times animation help so much with text and navigating from place to place. And the remake seems like its owning the retelling of the story with the whispers and it feels more impactful knowing what is meant to be happening vs the updated events

I'm literally replaying FF7 this month. 😅 Funny to see this in my recommended considering that.

My fave moment will always be the Weapon attack on Junon. Used to give me goosebumps with the amazing music as a kid.

Been playing the same copy since 1997 on the same ps1 since 96 and im still paying it now. I e never gotten bored of it and i dont think i ever will.

First off, the death scene of Aeris is THE moment for most FF7 gamers. Such an emotional scene. FF7 is the reason I bought a PlayStation. It still is my favorite game of all time.

I might catch some flak for this but one scene that stands out to me was when cait Sith sacrificed himself in the Temple of the ancients.

Played it as a kid but never beat it. It was nostalgic but still seen shit i never seen before playing this year. The new versions with the 3x speed feature is also a blessing. After all these years i can finally watch it get speedrun without worrying about spoilers 😂

after years of not finishing this game i finally completed this game a month ago and it is still a classic!

As someone who just played ffvii og thks year I'd say so, it was a little shorter than I expected but fun.

I have replayed FF7 about every 3 or 4 years since I played it first in 2001.

100% Yes it is. I'm currently playing it now. And loving it as the classic masterpiece that it is.

So happy for the remake as IX was about as far back as i could enjoy going back for 2nd Gen FF games. I play IV-VI on my GBA emulator, and the remaster of VIII has made that playable again, but i hadn't played VII in a little over a decade. Getting to revist this world and story in a new was has been an exhilarating experience and i need to make sure i upgrade to a PS5 before next December to be able to play reunion right away. Currently replaying ffVII remake on hard and FFIV on my emulator in anticipation of crisis core, which i never played the original of

I miss world maps...😢 When i exited midgar for the first time as a 9 year old boy that nevwr played a JRPG before this blew my mind to see that this city was just a small part of a gigantic world.

Off the top of my head, my favorite moments all relate to sephiroth : Cloud's recollection of the Nibelheim reactor mission ; Aerith's death ; The various moments we find masamune blades stuck into things ; When meteor is summoned ; The ending I've probably beat FF7 ten times by now

I played it last year and it must not be my style of game or I'm just nitpicky, because it was hit or miss for me. I used a guide for some parts and don't think I be able to find my way around some places if I hadn't accidentally turned on the red arrows where doors are. I don't know how I turned those on. There's a bunch of little minigames that you only need to do once, which is a bit odd. The submarine part took me 15 seconds because I just drove forward mashing fire. I never bothered getting Vincent because I don't know how anyone would find him without a guide. I looked up where to find the combination to the safe, and the internet would only give me the combination, not how to figure it out. Storywise, going into Cloud's head was very strange and I don't know how [insert 2 player characters] survived their mortal wounds at [insert location in the past]. It also felt a bit weird when you're searching for a man in a black coat and then start pretending to be a soldier, playing games at the Gold Saucer, etc. I thought, "Don't we have something important to do?" Also, I managed to miss all of the materia that lets you get enemy skills, so the guide wasn't too helpful near the end. For good parts, The animations on the overworld characters is really great, especially for Aerith. Cloud's overall story, while told in a broken-up way, is really interesting for a protagonist once you get the whole story. The music is, of course, quite good and Aerith is a sweetie. Yuffie is fun, too, but I wouldn't have been able to recruit her without the guide.

1997, ff7 was groundbreaking. It was a massive triple a title on 3 disc. It was the first of it's kind on home console. It had great music, storytelling, combat and open world design.

I love this game sm, I have it on PS mini, PS4, and remake. I still play the original more than remake. Just a classic.

From 97 onwards I've played this game atleast once a year every year, I've bought the game 5 times and still have my original black label from 97, best game ever in my opinion that said most memorable moments forgotten capital, northern crater, and beating the game the first time under leveled and under equipped. 10 out of 10 would recommend will forever play this and its spinoffs

The graphics where groundbreaking in its time. Prerendered backfround moving ff in to 3D was epic back in the day.

finished 15 a week ago and started playing ff7 remake. 15 was my first game and I liked it, but ff7 remake is so fucking good. like wtf have I been missing out. I can't wait for 16 and rebirth to come to pc.

Yes. And the remake is great too.

Greta video, thank you so much! I personally think the prerendered backgrounds are absolutely beautiful even though they are not up to date with today's standards.

If you're someone who didn't grow up playing videogames in the 90's, you can still find things about it that you enjoy and appreciate even if the gameplay doesn't feel as fun or as engaging, and it being from the 90's makes it feel like a lot of necessary elements to a video game are missing. Also, you'd need to be able to tolerate "grinding" experience points and materia AP, and doing lots of unguided exploring unless you have a strategy guide. Overall, I'd recommend that someone play the Remake before playing the original. And that's coming from someone who loved the original when it was brand new. It's just a much smoother introduction to the ideas and themes found within the "Compilation of FF7" as it's referred to.

Just did my first playthrough. Played it on a ps1 emulator, so I was playing as close to the original as possible. Took me about 60 hours. Pros: great story, fun combat system, interesting characters, didn't have to grind at all (like, from the first fight to the final boss, I never felt I had to stop the game and grind out the levels) Cons: -Janky movement -Janky graphics -Materia system was a pain to keep messing with. Like, swapping materia in and out of various characters was tedious enough that I simply didn't bother playing Yuffie, Vincent, or Cat Sith at all. -the minigames. Oh jesus the minigames. Some were fun, others were godawful to control. Overall: really good game, but a tough pill to swallow in 2022. Overall, I loved it, and had a great time. But it was incredibly frustrating at times, and in ways it just didn't need to be.

Back in the day from what I remember the graphics were amazing and 🤯. I got this game two months after launch and played the official Playstation demo of the game 1000 times. That's the first reactor 1000 times with no saved progress. I was 12 at the time but I was very excited My family let me rent games mostly and I'd get to buy a games with good report cards. It was a big deal when I wanted to buy a game 😅

Great vid. Just finished the remake and started replaying the original.

I bought this on release 25 years ago (now I feel old) but never completed it. In recent years I have begun replaying all these classic RPGs and completed FF7 a couple of months ago. I'm now engrossed in FF9. Final Fantasy is now undoubtedly my favourite RPG series.

This game was more about characters finding peace with themselves vs the usual good vs bad. The only one that really knew what they wanted and gained his dream was most definitely Zack Flair. I still cry

Here's the way I view FFVII (just the 1997 game, not the extra stuff)... The people at Square (although, yes, they were making other games like Chrono or Romancing, which were made with an immense amount of care and effort) wanted to top what they'd done with FFVI, that is to say, they wanted to do just as good and better, newer, more ambitious than they'd done with the previous FF title. So they wanted to make a masterpiece (or rather "another" masterpiece)... which required a LOT of work, care, and effort. They wanted to make as masterful a story as they could, as fun/cool a gameplay experience (for JRPG standards in line with other FF's) as they could, as awesome graphics and cutscenes as they could, etc. etc. And they really tried to achieve that. So having all this effort in mind, they didn't want to sink so much of their work into such a game without also trying to make sure they get compensated as much as possible and that the game gets as much recognition as possible. Which is why FFVII was one of the most heavily and widely marketed games in the world... ever. Square put a TON of money and effort into marketing just like they put effort into the game itself. And that exposure, making people aware of the game, promoting the game, hyping people up about it, is ultimately one of the main reasons why so many people know and love FFVII as they do. Yes, the story is a masterpiece; yes the game is very fun and appealing to a wide range of people; yes many of the graphical aspects were cutting edge, BUT that can be said of many other games, less popular games, less well-known games... the so-called "hidden gems" of that decade. So the fact that so much effort was put into marketing FFVII as well as making the game itself is greatly responsible for its success and enduring appeal. But my argument is essentially that Square would not have done this for a game they didn't believe in and which they weren't trying to get recognized as a masterpiece. So the fact that the game was good came first, and the fact that they decided it , therefore, needed a ton of promoting came second, as a logical conclusion.

I wasn't gonna comment but you brought it up so ill say my favorite moment if FFVII was when Cid first met me and told me to drink my damn tea xD

Totally worth it, replayed it few weeks ago for the second time and I ended up liking it even more this time, arguably top 5 of all time, definitely top 10.

I think the world map theme is cool but then it changes when meteor is incoming and becomes a bit more eerie matches the mood perfectly. It’s just that entering the airship switches the theme to that triumphant melody that changes the vibe too much.

Both FFVII and FFVIII are classics and gems in gaming!

I played the original game like 4 times throughout my life - first when I was a kid, honestly, the story was too complex for my wee brain to understand but the game was still fun so I was able to finish it but forgot most if not all of what happened. Second was after I watched advent children, after watching the movie I thought Cloud was soo cool vs Sephiroth, and with the omnislash finale to boot. I just had to replay the original again, now with a more mature mind to understand context lol! A few years later Crisis core came out on the PSP, and after I played it… again I go back to the original with even MORE context (this time I went in with completionist mindset). Years later, my life had moved on, lots of other games in between…then out of nowhere FF7 remake was announced, and I shit-you -not I bawled my eyes out. I played the game with reverence and it easily became THE Game of the year - nay - century for me. The 4th time was after the FF7 Rebirth showcase, it was just for refreshing my memory with the story beats and all that. One thing is for sure, i am definitely hyped for the FF7 re:trilogy and I will hold it close to my heart for all my life, I want my children and my children’s children to experience it!

currently playing it for the first time with some mods and i love it

It definitely is. For one it is a great game and still holds up and or two, you won´t be able to comprehend the "remake" trilogy without playing the original due to the fact they actually are sequels which refer back to the timeline of the OG FFVII.

How cute. SE made a fully-fledged, yet condensed demake 😊

Literally playing this after I completed remake

I didn’t grow up with any FF games. I was born in 2001 too, we only had Nintendo consoles. When covid hit though I blew dust off my PS2 and played the PS1 version of FF7 that I got for Christmas one year prior because he was in smash. I played this game for the first time in 2020 and had played much “better aged” games like MGSV breath of the wild, God of War 2018 and tbh… nothing was quite like this game. It is my favorite video game of all time and it does everything right even the dorky graphics and controversial combat system which I personally love

As someone who has played this game I can confirm that I have spent at least 5 hours total going over combinations and god mode is only acceptable for grinding up materia and limits

Thank you for the awesome video, Im a bit worried about the graphics of the game and how I will deal with it but I'll try my best, Im definitely buying it after this video, Thanks again! :D

My favorite moment was when i was at Corel, Barrett's hometown and i couldn't stop the damn train. The characters panicked reactions before the train crashed had me rollin'😂

best moment is cloud n tifa hookin up ;)

The thing I dislike at this video... is the fact that it omits Final Fantasy 6, which was the main reason 7 was released as well. Back at the launch of the Snes, they brought over Final Fantasy 4, but it didn't sell all too well. That's why they didn't bring Final Fantasy 5 to US and with 6 they "tried it again" and 6 became a massive success. Because of that... everyone in US... and the ones in EU that imported it... waited for Final Fantasy 7. Which was the first Final Fantasy that got released worldwide, as it was the first one to be released in Europe as well.

everyone google echo-s mod makes it fully voice acted....sooo fun to replay

"Make sure combat doesn't get repettitive" Knights Of The Round x W-Summon x Mimic enters the chat

I remember playing this game when it came out… it was my first true JRPG. Even then the graphics were considered rough. I remember many people saying it sucked because of the 9 billion enemy encounters and the fact that the mechanics like ladders, doors, and some items were place in ways that were extremely frustrating. The story is the best thing about the game. I tried to go back and play it recently after playing the remake and I couldn’t do it. The remake is SOOO much better. IMO just play the remake as it has the soul of the original but just far more thought out and detailed. If you must play an older FF for nostalgia reasons FF6 or FFX are better options, FFX being the best of the series IMO.

I'm not watching this. I'm still on the ad. I just came to answer the question. Yes. Play it. 2024.

I would take extreme exception with people saying that squaresoft / square enix is milking the final fantasy 7 franchise. In order to milk a franchise the games have to be mediocre to low quality surviving only on the legacy of the franchise. If the games are good then the games are good and you literally cannot milk a franchise as long as you're putting out quality content...

I've never finished past disc 1 but I do want to eventually.

Also, the replay value is through the roof bc of the materia system. You can have so many different outcomes in battles with different combinations.

Just downloaded the re boot. Still got the playstation black 3 disc original in mint condition.

Spoiler warning! I think the fact that you’re are forced into a fight with Jenova after Aerith’s death AND her dang theme is still playing in the background is one of the most emotionally impactful parts of the game. It’s like, hey this major character that is helping the protagonist to come out of his shell and rediscover who he is just got murdered in front of you. Here’s some somber music associated with her character to tug at your heartstrings and a fight you don’t really want right now! No time to grieve. You are immediately forced to confront the reality of the threat that is facing not only you and your friends, but the entire planet.

Just for the record, these graphics were groundbreaking at the time. This game came out at the same time as games like Spyro the dragon and ape escape. If you’d played it back then you’d have loved flying around for hours in the high wind.

ok the moment defining memories to me are as follows. spoilers below 1. aerith dying 2. red XII home and the song 3. on midgar bridge about to leave the city and the first town when I realized how big it would be. 4. The battle at shinra HQ 5. The golden saucer and trying to get all 3 dates. 6. The glory of defeating both ultimate weapons, getting golden chocobo and knights of the round. 7. The desert prison and chocobo race 8. infiltrating undercover as shinra soldier 9. Facing sephiroth 10. The mansion and flashback of the town burning.
