The Aerith/Cloud shot reminds me of FF8. Maybe this is in clouds mind,seeing how all the fog gets rid of anything else
Oh, good. I was starting to get worried.
I just hope he doesn't only appear in flashback form; his appearance doesn't seem to have changed at all. But, then again, neither has that of Reno or Rude, and they're obviously playing active roles.
The Turks fighting the silver haired men. Should be worth watching, even though they're kind of getting their arses kicked by the looks of it.
Well, they are the Turks. They tend to be perfectly badass right up until the moment when the actual fighting begins.
But they usually lose with such style. :(Quote:

Reno has always looked that way, though. I love how he's been rendered in AC, since I loved how he looked to begin with and nothing's really changed about him.
Cid doesn't look that young. Nice to see Red XIII in there, too, although I'm not sure if that's old news or not. I guess we'll see everyone, then. Well, er, not sure on Cait Sith... xD
As for Reno looking feminine, I disagree. For Final Fantasy, that is a very, very manly face. Seriously.
we have yet to see Yuffie,i think.and Cid wasnt young to begin with.I believe he was in his 40's,and the oldest party member*next to barret,maybe)
Yeah, I meant relatively young, as in he doesn't look like he "hasn't aged a bit." At least, in my opinion. I'd say he's put a few years. Tough picture to pick it from, mind you.Quote:

Just so long as she's in it, I'll be a happy camper.
Cid is 32, Barret is 37 - in FFVII, anyway. It's rather doubtful that Cid perished from old age...
Cid's definitely not looking like a flashback, though. He's got some distinctive changes to his costume in those pics.
[q=zacks_clone]The Aerith/Cloud shot reminds me of FF8. Maybe this is in clouds mind,seeing how all the fog gets rid of anything else[/q]Interesting observation:)
I'm guessing that'll be an encounter either in Cloud's dreams, like you suggest, or at the Promised Land itself. We know that Aeris can speak to people in their dreams, so that's a possibility...
That setting - the misty flower field - reminds me of the Farplane as seen in FFX and X-2...
Edit: I truly, deeply, sincerely hope that the Turks' suits are actually the same navy blue that they wore in FFVII. They look black in those AC screenshots. I'll be really disappointed if they've been re-designed just to look like generic MiB/Matrix clones.
Rude is white? WHAT!?!?!
Nope, he's got dark skin in those pictures. Glad to see his trademark sunglasses are still there. He's also got a bit more of a goatee, and now an earring too.
D, I don't agree with you on this one. Rude looks dark compared to Reno, but so would a piece of paper. Rude is white in this!
Phew, I was real worried that they would have this move without the best character: Highwind. Man Rude looks cool!
I agree, he does look white
He wasn't a very dark skinned person in the game, so if the sun was shining he'd look the same as a white person would in the shade. You might note that everything in that picture shows that the sun is shining. He doesn't look white for that reason. I can see how you'd think that, though. Reno's skin shows the obvious difference. There's no way Square would make that kind of cockup. =P Even they're not that bad.
Rude has always been white. And if you look at the artwork from FFVII, he's always had the earring and goatee. Some people.
It does look like the Turks' uniform has been changed from blue to black, though. This even seems to be the case with Before Crisis.
[q=Kishi]And if you look at the artwork from FFVII, he's always had the earring and goatee.[/q]He's got more of a goatee than before, is what I said.
Since when was he caucasian, anyway? He never had especially dark skin, but he wasn't the same iridescent pale shade as Reno. He has a darker skin tone than any character except Barret, so far as I could tell... and he still looks the same in the AC pics.
He is a little darker than everyone else, but he's still well within caucasian range.
Yeah, I always figured Rude just had a nice tan going on.. *shrug*
Note the top Reno picture, where he's wearing the headset... could it be that he's piloting something...?
Hopefully not Proud Clod Mk. II.
I always thought Rude was black in FF7, meteor must have given him a serious tan. I can't wait to see who the pirate guy with the white face turns out to be. Cloud's father maybe?
*sniggers* I always get a kick out of that silly pirate guy...Quote:

And I dunno about you guys...he still looks black to me like he always did...even moreso in this pic...or maybe my colors off? All I know is I love the way he looks yay. :love: I don't care too much for Reno's appearance though...gah.
I can't wait for better shots of Cid and Red XIII, because these don't offer too much other than the happiness from assurance that they'll be showing up.
I really do hope all those shots with Aeris are flashbacks/dreams/illusions/ect...it does look that way but still...thats the only thing thats worrying me about this.
I am very pleased with these shots. Too bad the Turks are getting their asses kicked, it seems. Cid is back, Nanaki too... this looks like it will be good. The Turks are rendered excellently.
cept Reno looks REALLY white, like, whiter then a normal white person
And if nething, Rude was tan, but not dark enough to be black
Is the dark haired woman in the first picture supposed to be Tifa?
Yes, that's Tifa. Relatively old news.
Agreed, only one man deserves that honor.Quote:

Look and see.
Well, according to that picture, Tseng is hindu and Reno is suffering from anorexia. Rufus is also clearly gay.
But we already knew all that.
...not just anorexic... more like a recovering herion addict, maybe. ;)
I would concede that Rude is black, if his nose were flatter and something more like Barret's.. but seeing his profile, he has a pretty prominent nose. So maybe Hispanic..... hey, Rude could be from Costa!
I don't notice any homosexuality depicted by this picture.Quote:

*sheathes his Hanzo sword*
Damn.
I like Rude's pocket square in that picture. Classy.
Nah, in order to truly avenge Cid's honor, we'd have to use spears. Besides, spears are better than katanas any day.Quote:

I say we send SquareEnix an email inquiring as to Rude's ethnicity. So we can get the lame response, "Thank you for showing interest in our product valued customer, but we cannot comment on your question at this time." Yeah, some crap like that. Who wants to do it?
How about you?
Why would I waste my time doing something like that when I can find someone else to do it for me?
Possibly because you could've gotten it over with by now, while getting someone else to do it would only be a bigger waste of time?
lol truely...but s/he probably doesn't wanna do it bcause s/he'll feel like an ass and doesnt' wanna feel dumb
Maybe Rude has mixed-ethnicity parentage?
It's not unheard of.
Is it just me, or is Reno hot?
Maybe Rude's ethnicity doesn't really matter at all? It's like discussing whether Squall is Jewish or not.Quote:

anyway... all black people don't have big noses so you should stop looking at the police stencil and actually look around at black people around you.Quote:

It's nice to see Cid and Nanaki seemingly in it :)
You forgot the turtleneck.Quote:

Its not just you.....I think hes hot to... :DQuote:
