FFT and FFTA as well. I think he might also be in FF1, but can't remember. I know he's in FF1 and 2 Dawn of Souls.

I think he's in all of them.

It's in FF6 and I'm almost sure in 5 aswell.

it's part of the FF legacy! All FF's have a Cid, a Biggs, a Wedge, and chocobos, and moogles. I don't know where Cid came from, but I heard somewhere that Biggs and Wedge are from Star Wars O.o

Yep. Both Biggs and Wedge are members of the Rebel Alliance.

biggs and wedge are in all of them? i hmm... i remember 7 and 8 but i don't remember them from the others. it was biggs and someone else in some other game... but not wedge.

FFX and X-2, they were Blitzball players.

FFTA, Biggs was in it, but not Wedge. Not sure about most of the early ones though.

I read an article from GamePro Magazine that the existence of a Cid in ever FF game (even FF: Spirits Within has a guy named Sid) is to indirectly link all the FF games together.

[G SpOtZ]

i think the title of "Final Fantasy" for each game is enough to link them together yah? haha.

Cid:

ff1-- added in DOS as a back-reference.
ff2-- owner of an airship in either Palm or Poft.
ff3-- I have no clue :}
ff4-- Another airship dude, and he's got really freaky looking goggles on.
ff5-- an inventor, he has a grandson named Mid
ff6-- A father-figure to Celes. I think he was a scientist under Kefka?
ff7-- PC
ff8-- Founder of the Garden in Balamb
ff9-- King of Lindblum
ff10/10-2-- Rikku's father
FFTA-- the leader of teh Judges

Biggs/Vicks and Wedge:
ff6-- Soldiers fighting with Terra
ff7-- heck if I know
ff8-- Galbadian soldiers

Chocobos go back to ff2. There is one in the entire world, and dang but it is useful.

[Skyblade]

Chocobos were also added in FF1, DoS.

Biggs and Wedge were members of Avalanche in FFVII, and blitzball players in FFX and X-2.

[Rostum]

He's also in FF11.

[Medeskeys]

Seems to me he's always an airship pilot, or doing something relating to airships...
