Alas, I lack sound clips to show you what the hell I mean so I'll try and describe it.
Anyone who's played the first six FF games (as well as 9) will be dead familiar with the first eight notes of the battle theme; A A A A A A G G (a few of them are anyways, depends what key it's in)
So I've noticed that this does in fact appear in FF7 and 8 as well, but each time it's in a final battle. In FF7, we hear it for a moment in "Birth of a God" (in a different key than usual) after the tune's intro. Then, in FF8's "The Extreme", we get a fairly slow-paced intro with that nice piano melody, and again we get the classic battle theme intro and then the main tune kicks in.
Do you think this is intentional or just a coincidence? Discussion please.
