    You asked, I answered. I was too busy clapping to read any of the dialogue in that scene.
    um, I thought the dialogue stays on screen until you hit the X Button...

    Well, where that is true, the log out screen is comic genius, and has nothing to do with the fact Aerith sucks.

    Why would you want to log out anyway?

    I didn't know that Aeris died when I first played it, and I was overjoyed when she did.

    Some people have only one side to their computer so would need to log out for the rest of the family, or if you where at school or a friends computer...

    I don't log out when I'm at school. Just don't select "Remember Me" and it'll sign out automatically.

    Cait Sith, clearly. That dance is clearly just raw emotion. What that emotion might be is beyond me, though.

    It was spoiled for me while watching a final fantasy spoof. I was pretty shocked when I saw it. But I saw the actual thing on Youtube millons of times ( I only got the game 2 years ago) So it wasn't that suprising. (in fact, it's like figuring out Squall and Rinoa start dating.
    Anyway I like Red's. He's not usually one to show emotin.

    I think Tifa's stroking her hair rather than checking for a pulse. Her's is one of my favourite responses - she pats her friend's hair, then is overcome by emotion and flees with a hand over her face. It's possibly pure coincidence, but I find it significant that when she turns away, she never faces Cloud. She turns in the other direction, like she can't bring herself to look at him just then because of the emotional tangle between the three of them.

    Barret patting Cloud's shoulder was nice, too. He's not the best at showing that he cares, but he still knows how to get the point across.

    I like Yuffie's reaction as well. Cloud hugging her was cute, as well as being a genuinely nice thing to do.

    Regardless of what others might have to say, that scene is still one of the defining FF moments - indeed, one of the more profound parts of any video game - for me.

    Big D, I think that's the best reply I've had so far. I completly agree, especially the last paragraph.

    lol
    LOL

    i like Cloud and tifas best, and i see Tifa more as brushing Aeris hair to kind of make her look nice and say goodbye and because i see them as close friends, whenever you have just Cloud and get a chance to talk to the other characters Tifa and Aeris are almost always together

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.
    Changed to stop Jessweeee♪ from going insane. Is that better?

    Spot on mate. You wanna see the sh!t I got on another thread for supporting this scene. I'm really surprised at the FFVII bashing. I thought this place would be a celebration of all things FF. Guess I'm just naive.
    I will never be a memory.

    But this is the internet Most of the people on the net are simply here to moan, whine, and generally complain as much as possible about anything...

    Though it's good that there are still a few of us who can be positive.
