Yes, I've read that some guy who helped make FFX and FFVII said he would like to consider FFX-2 as events that occured before FFVII started. Unfortunately, the two stories cannot be linked simply by inserting a child-prodigy Shinra as a character who wants to harness "energy from the farplane" to make a huge city. In FFVII, the Shinra Company started as a weapons developer for the war in Wutai before it was ever interrested in the Mako industry.
God, I hope not. I don't want a game as great as FF7 connected with such a crapfest as FFX-2.
And Final Fantasy 3 is 6 and 6 is millions of years before 12. :)
Actually Ryu Kaze ( the guy who wrote the translation Duality linked to) has translated an earlier text on X linking Midgar to Spira and ALSO a portion of Ultimania Omega FFVII that confirms the link.
Digging the link as we speak...
EDIT: Found the link!!

FFVII is connected to FFX!
Well that proves it... there is no god...
I mean, how can they connect a decent game (FFVII) to such a bad one? (FFX and it's abomination of a sequel)
The part that really bothers me is that this whole idea seems like it was pulled out of the writers ass. Both Nojima and Kitase are pretty vague about details but it comes off like they just decided to do it after finishing both games. So there was no thought beforehand to connect them. Well, it's official... Nojima and Kitase are talentless hacks...:mad:
Let's just pray that FFXIII isn't going to be the story that connects them.
Sacrilege!!!!
FFX is a masterpiece!!!
I dunno why people are still complaining when we all know it's true now >.>
I dunno, do you really think that they would link two games like that together? I mean, every final fantasy has had its own world with other things. Why can't the name Shinra just have be reused the way Biggs and Wedge have been reused.
My first reaction is to be repulsed. Not because i thought FFX was a worse game than 7 (X-2 was!) but because each Final Fantasy world has, as someone said, always been a virgin world. To know that the ending of X-2 was never truly an end, and in fact was simply ANOTHER 1000 years before the next plot line (of 7 this time) seems like a violation.
However, now that i think about it, the idea of the planets and people being linked is really exciting. It feels to me like three epic books. The storyline of 10 (and regrettable 10-2) - the bit in between - The storyline of 7.
Wouldn't you just love to see how the ancients fell out with each other, stuck on a planet that wasn't their own? The thought of the grand evil of Sin and Yevon meaning nothing in the force of Meteor and Sephiroth's evil plan to help his mother travel from world to world draining their energy...
It makes X seem like only a page in a book.
No matter how cool Square-Enix thinks they are...Quote:

How the fu*k is it bullsh*t? It's written right down there on those links mentioned earlier. Of course, this is because X is connected to VII. If it was linked to VIII, then everyone would be going "Ohh, yeah, there must be a link, can't deny that"
Why would it make any diffeence if it was linked to VIII and no VII. VIII has no planetary underground stream, what it DOES have are messed up timelines and hidden cities.
Tavrobel and Ryukishi know a lot about FF so I doubt they would deny what is on the Ultimania guides. In any case, the games and Ultimania ARE what is "official" in FF so no mere fan can know better. We can only like or dislike the idea ;)
