Bah, they're both annoying.

There actually are a few music references, too.
If you listen close in kuja's theme, and Intension of the earth from FF5, you can just barely hear a trace of similarity.

Thats probably just a coincidence :p

Possibly. :D

Near the end around the time you fight trance kuja someone says cloud and squall in a sentance. not sure who. either kuja or zidane.

"Pandemonium, The Castle Frozen in Time" is a slower organ remix of "Castle Pandemonium" from FFII.

This has already been mentioned, and it was Marcus, not Kuja or Zidane.

at the end of the game marcus says in the play (SPOILER)"no cloud no sqaull shall ponder us" or somthing like that :tongue:

I thought that the term Rally-Ho! used in Conde Petie was originated from FF4? (SPOILER)When the airship breaks down and you have to fight the Calbrina Doll's? Or is this used in more than one FF game?

Is regent Cid, Cid IXth by any chance?

:D I'm glad someone besides me had noticed that. In the Buisness district, if you read the statue I believe the memorial either had something for his father, Cid VIII or a note from the regent, Cid IX.

No, it's from FF3 and it is also used in FF5 (if I remember correctly). So it's been used in 4 FFs so far.

It originated in FFI.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that Gulug Volcano's music is more than a coincidence. This isn't a 'kind of sounds similar' situation, this is an 'it sounds exactly the same' situation. I think there are probably credible sources that state that this was indeed intentional.

Kuja's theme, however, I'm leaning towards coincidence, but yeah, it does sound similar.

Kuja's theme also sounds like the Shin-Ra theme from FFVII. And "We Will Rock You," from Queen.
