He! The video game world… I notice most readers look down on gamers… as the sort of hybrid that I am I’ve always wondered why… I mean they are basically a book! wait! How dare you say that a book and a game are sort of the same? OMG here we go again! Ok stupid imaginary voice inside my head… I’ma explain this to you so you can stop bugging me and let me finish my review; when reading a book you are either transported to another place… you get to see into somebody else’s mind… you see an either familiar or fictional world from the point of view of other people… in a video game… well you do the same shit! Sometimes it’s an awesome world sometimes is some stupid crap that you just want to get over with.. . ha! But how about text books? Are your fucking games the same as a text book? erm… the army uses video games to actually train their forces… you can also learn math, grammar, and all the stupid crap they teach you in school on some games… and just like real world text books the video games ermm text games (?) are the same! They usually so crappy that nobody wants to play em! Now can you shut the fuck up and leave me finish talking about Final Fantasy? well since I can’t argue with that… I’ma have to do just that… ok back to the review… I’m not reviewing this Strategy guide… cuz I’m sure is crappy as fuck! I’m reviewing Final Fantasy VII (AKA: the game that traumatized me) this is going to be a nice little series where I find the strategy guide of games I love and review the actual game not the book… have a problem with that? Hey just close the fucking window!


Final Fantasy VII, I got my copy a few days after it came out, always been a huge FF fan… and this thing was getting the best reviews ever! So when I finally got my copy I did total lock down with it! Just me, FFVII, a dictionary and Coke mixed with instant espresso to keep me awake! The moment you select “new game” you just get hit by this cinematic of a sky full with stars… and this beautiful girl wearing a pink dress and a red idk how is called thingy, carrying a basket of flowers… and then bang! The camera does this amazing soon out and you get this vista of some weird, dystopian looking city… and all I remember thinking was “WOW! Who was her?” this is the part were I sound either corny as hell or crazy as fuck! Or a little bit of both.. I totally fell in love with that character from that scene on… but the game don’t take you to her right away… first you need to be a SOLDIER well an ex SOLDIER actually, still! You go into battle! Just like that! SQUARE* plays with your feelings just like that! First cute girl is introduced… then cute girl gets taken away and you go fight… now that I think of it…. I should have seen coming what happened next… I should have know that the only thing that was beautiful in my life to that day was about to be taken away from me… but I was young and stupid! I wouldn't have believed it even if somebody told me it was coming… any way back to the game.


Our main character’s name is Cloud he was a SOLDIER a special breed of humans infused with Mako Energy something like Rambo on crack some Gandalf DNA on it too! but now he works for AVALANCHE a terrorist** group that wants to stop Shinra Corp from destroying their world by taking The Mako energy… blah blah blah, the rights of the planet and all that crap, some supposedly hot chick is tagging along***, fight the bad guys show em what’s all about BORING! Where the fuck is the chick from the opening scene? Well our hero finds himself running away from the authorities… after his big battle scenes and he bumps into her… and who could have imagine! It was love on first sight! Ha! Her name is Aeris and she lives in the Ghetto… she sells the flowers she grows on an abandoned church to make a living… and she is sweet as fuck! I mean adorable! Then bla bla bla, cloud may be the fucked up result of an experiment, more talk with that stupid chick who is supposed to be hot, Aeris is a direct descendant of an ancient race that used to control a lot of power, blah, blah, blah, ancient powers and enter Sephiroth this dude since to know something about our hero’s past… so he sets on a quest to find out more about all of this… then bang there was an alien who clashed in our planet back in the days and tried to destroy everything there… but the ancients managed to stop it, and it was all good! Then some creepy looking scientist founded the remains of the alien creature thing… and made Sephiroth and a bunch of other crazy things… and all hell broke lose! Sephiroth goes crazy tries to destroy the world and well… and I’m there like digging all this crap! I’m like “uh, this is some deep shit!” “holy crap, Cloud may not be human” “Aeris is so cute” then when I’m finally into the ancient city of the ancients (ha! I’m so funny!) the unthinkable happens! Aeris separates from the group… and when I finally find her… thinking that I’m about to get a love scene or something… what do I get? Fucking Sephiroth comes in and killed her! now this is the part were I go insane thinking that maybe I did something wrong… that I fucked up somewhere in the game… that she is coming back to life…. Remember this is 1997! The internet wasen’t what it is today… this was a new game… there wasn’t much info out there in the third world about it! It took 3 days of me re starting from my old save games, from looking in the internet for answers… hell I think I even had an intervention from one of my friends trying to convince me that Aeris was not coming back! That she was dead dead! That was the day I swore my oath! To kill fucking Sephiroth! I’m not going to bored y’all even more with what happens next… I honest to god didn’t care! All I wanted was Sephiroth’s head on a plate! I went on an compulsive leveling up campaign that eventually teach me the skills to play while I sleep (that aint no joke nor exaggeration) all to one single minded end…. To fucking oblibiate Sephiroth… it took me over 120 hours to unlock everything on the game… but when I did… I’m not going to give you the details of what I did to that asshole… but let us just say that a level 99 Omnislash can do wonders for over 100 hours of repressed anger!


This guide proly sucks… and if you ever need help on this game don’t hesitate on asking me… I’ma give it a 5 but it goes not to the guide… but to Final Fantasy!


*:before you do a SQUARENIX complain keep in mind that I’m reviewing Final Fantasy VII! 1997 duh!

**: i dont care what anybody says! AVALANCH is a terrorist organization!

***: i seriusly hate how SQUARE tried to sell Tifa as an Aeris replacement as romantic interest for cloud... ( )
