Why is Locke the only character that does not have his face shown in Anthology?

Huh? You mean in the game or the manual? Because IIRC he appears on the back on the Anthology manual. And he shows his face in the main menu. Unless I'm missing something here o.o

I dont believe anthology and the single ps release of VI had any differences.

He's talking about the FMV. Locke appears in the opening and ending FMV's but you never actually see his face, at most just the back of his head.

I feel it was done to give off a bit of a romantic notion for the character and his relationship of Celes. The FMV gives Celes the feeling of "longing" and I feel hiding Locke's face expresses that feeling.

Because his silhouette is sexy

Yeah I meant the FMV...the only time you see Locke's face is on his character portrait and Amano artwork. His face is never rendered in FMV and he is the only character to not have his face shown. Pity really, I always liked Locke's character design. Or who knows, perhaps they battled to recreate him effectively in FMV.

And surely keeping your dead girlfriend preserved in a basement is against some sort of law?

I could've sworn I'd seen his face before... Anyway, strange that he doesn't show up!

:lol:

It's kinda weird how they don't show the face. I'm not sure if it was intentional to make him seem more mysterious or they just didn't feel like coming up with a unique visage.

Took the words out of my mouth. But really, the should have shown his face. I always imagined him to be quite good looking. :P
