I was nine years old when this game was released, and it was quite a shock to a single-digit age kid to see a beloved companion die. Equal parts childhood naivety combined with the relatively tiny size of the internet at that time led me to believe every single resurrection hoax. So to hear-- and actually see-- a glitch where Aeris appears for a moment in her church! My little heart did backflips.
