    Default Favourite bad graphic

    I know the graphics in this game were revolutionary, but we all know that now some of the graphics look ridiculous. What is your favorite bad graphic?

    It is either Vincent's ridiculously pointy shoes or the sticky cheese on Cloud's head.

    I still think it looks revolutionary. (I'll let you have the hands though).

    The hands never bothered me, but Clouds popeye-like forearms will always nibble on my annoyance gene - particularly when his answer to every other question or situation is to extend them and shrug as if to say...

    "What do you expect me to do about it? I've got unnaturally proportioned forearms, for gods sake. Seriously, what can a guy do with forearms like these!"


    No wonder he was a psychological wreck.

    I like it when they run and their speed has no relation to their running animation so it looks like the floor is really slippery.

    Whats funny for me was that I bought 8 before 7... So you should have seen my face when I so the characters models milling around.. I was like..."They look like Lego Men/Women" It took some getting use to but after a while I tend to see them as they were illustrated..

    as for bad graphic... I definitely think it was the hands of everyone character. Plus their tiny forearms!

    I loved all his poses and stances, especially when you get to see them all at once in Temple of the Ancients.

    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?

    Like I say, the hands were really all that mattered to me - sure games have better graphics than VII these days, but VII is still one of the top tier positions of graphical brilliance in my book - I still find myself in awe of it when I play - it's just got a sort of "atmosphere" to it. It was great for it's time and still holds out.

    Oh and...

    the sticky cheese on Cloud's head
    No offence, but it still looks like hair to me. Each to their own.

    Hahaha, yes! xD

    It's funny 'cause it's true!

    I also really dig that move Yuffie does, where she punches the air like 4 times quickly in a row. What's up with that? xD

    Definitely the hands. Bricks for the win.

    Which is why I sometimes felt sorry for the enemies when Tifa punched them over and over again. That must've hurt.

    What about that "angry dance" that Barrett does sometimes?

    Barrett's gun arm looks almost exactly like his real arm xD

    Something that surprised me and amused me immensely when I first played the game was how the party would be having a deep conversation about something, and then when it was over, two of them would just walk purposefully toward Cloud and disappear inside him. As if they're figments of his imagination and he had been talking to himself the whole time.

    the fact that the sister ray is not actually pointed at northern crater.
