While I actually prefer revolvers to pistols, there's something about the Hyperion i've always liked more. I think it's the way Seifer wields it. It just looks a lot cooler than Squall which basically lioks like he's holding a normal sword.

Well, yeah. I agree with all of that.

Ahh, I've always loved the Hyperion. It does just look so much cooler. Plus, if i were to swordfight, I'd probably use the same style as Seifer...for some reason, holding a sword with both hands just completely messes me up.

Plus, Seifer is wicked with the thing. Hah, I'm gonna have to go watch the opening FMV again because of this topic.

I've always thought that Seifer should be a better fighter than Squall...

Oh wow, I've never seen those pictures of Seifer's gunblade before!

I guess I'm a classicist, prefer brutish attacks over elegant grace :)

@Kalim

I've come to beleve the two are of comporable skill level with no clear winner.

But yeah, speaking of the opening FMV, the way Seifer holds his weapon does look so much cooler than how Squall does it.

I mean he just picks it up with one hand, points it at Squall like "come and get it bitch" and Squall...comes and get sit. But you know what I mean.

That's Laguna, not Seifer.

No, that's Seifer.

Best shot of his gunblade I could get from the opening FMV.

Looks identical to me.

Though, even if it was Laguna, who cares? It's obvious Seifer got his desire to be the Sorceress' Knight from Laguna's movie. So he probably made sure he got the gunblade identical to the one Laguna used.

So, #1 copies #2's style and #1 still takes the credit? No, it's Laguna.

Give me a break. It's a type of weapon. Obviously not a unique type of weapon if it's being used in some crappy little film.

And saying it's Laguna's weapon when Laguna used it for a grand total of a few minutes IN A MOVIE is ridiculous.

Seifer's gone into actual combat with the thing and is a specialist with it. Laguna himself is pretty clear he just likes guns and barely knew what the hell he was doing with it.

But in the end it's neither's weapon because obviously people must have been using it before them as well. Same with Squall's Revolver.

Awesome pics. I like revolvers a little better (they're more reliable!), but Seifer's is pretty cool. I thought it was black in the battle screen or something? Gotta play this game again.

And #2's style is what he learned in Basic Training. #1 would have learned that style in basic as well.

I prefer the Hyperion because it looks lighter, easier to use even. I always thought the handle would be nicer and better fitting than the Revolver. But they look pretty similar in the pics, so who knows.

The hyperion looks way cooler.

I genereally prefer pistols to revolvers anyway.

I prefer the Revolver although there both awesome weapons. I just prefer the Revolver because it is Two Handed.

Never noticed that the Hyperion had an ordinary pistol. Guess that makes sense though; Seifer holds the Hyperion with one hand like a pistol, Squall holds the Revolver in two hands like, well, a revolver. Because those are heavier I guess.
