Today was another boring day. It was time to feed the dog and let him out. After the dog ate it was time to let him out. I let him out of the side door and i put on my shoes so i could go get his toy. Alongside my house there is a fence dividing my yard and my neighbours yard. The neighbours have a shrub on their side and the fence between our houses isnt very tall. As I was walking to get the dogs toy something cought my eye at the bottom of that shrub, it was shining in the sun so i bent over the fence and looked deep in the bush to see what it was. There in front of my eyes was Final Fantasy VII laying at the bottom of this shrub :eek: . Telling by the condition of the case, its been there for a LONG time. I flipped out and clawed at it until I got it. I went inside to clean it off and see if it still worked. I took apart the case and washed everything. The cover itself and the back were both SOAKED and the game interly was soaked and cold, becaus it was raining the last few days. After I got everything cleaned up I tried the game out......it freezes like a bitch. So yeah, it was my lucky day today I guess ;)
Here are some pictures:

So ya thats it. Notice how the cover and back of the game is wrinkled, thats from it being soaked and blow dried after.Can anyone help me with the freezing up thing? There are minor scratches but the cd's have been out in the cold for a long while.

Do not bend, crush, or submerge it in liquid.

That's probably the problem. Though the rain isn't your fault...

Do you know who's that is? That's pretty crazy (but awesome). Though failing that that copy shoudl work, I'd suggest getting a new copy at a used game store that still exchanges used PlayStation games.

No, I have no idea who it belongs to. The neighbours have two small children but I don't think they are the type to play ff7 ya know? the most likely explination is its thiers, but why the hell would put it in a bush in your back yard:confused:
I've been looking around for used copies of FFVII for a while now, so far zippo.

if you cant get it to work you could always be evil and sell it on ebay and use the money to get a working copy. unless you already own FF7.

You found it in a bush? Maybe it was a FFVII bush. Wait a while, then go back and see if any more grow. And the freezing might be from the rain; I know I freeze when I've been in the rain too long.

Square Enix bestows their might upon you!

Psst: I was lying.

You know seriously have you not heard stories of kids who find strange stuff lying around and then they get bad luck unless they throw it away but everytime they throw it away IT ALWAYS COMES BACK!!!!

Looks like some old-school fan boys have been sacrificing games to the God of 16-bit again.
