    i always attacked it while its tail was up and i manage to survive the battle (by sacrificing a few potions). but anyway, overall, by taking more damage and all, you learn your limit breaks faster!
    i had a friend who was playing a new game once, and when the scorpion raised its tail, he had cloud attack and it countered with tail laser. Then he wanted to heal, so on barret's turn he pulled out a potion. he wanted to heal cloud, so he pressed Left and confirmed with O button. BUT, the cursor went to the scorpion and he used the damn potion on the scorpion instead of cloud! :P

    actually Al Bhed^3, when it raises its tail, its defense doubles or something cuz then Braver only deals about 50-60 damage, so it can't possibly be dead right there.

    oh, and...i play Magic, too.

    It can raise its tail multiple times if you take a long while to kill it.

    Back on topic, clearly one of the more daft translations. Some get it, some don't. Being about 15 when FF7 was released, I actually adopted some of the FF7 language/translation, which it turned out nobody else understood... so it was a bad influence O_o

    Let's not forget the '....xeno....gias'.

    Anyways, the first time I played FFVII was at a friend's house, and she told me not to attack while its tail was up...after a brief moment of confusion, I followed her advice. Didn't take too long to win after that.

    Then again, that fight isn't too hard, so...

    'Off course' made me laugh pretty hard when I noticed it. I suppose Cloud believes the announcer to have misnavigated his thoughts in suggesting he quit the battle arena.

    Ah well, despite the occasional misspellings, FFVII was translated pretty well in my opinion. If you can read Japanese and have access to the Japanese version of the game, you'll find they're pretty similar. Though there's no way to translate Sephiroth switching from 'Omae' when in SOLDIER to 'Watashi' in the present....

    The battle arena's doubly screwed in fact, because not only is there "Off course", but the alternate option is "No, way!"

    And I put in my commands to attack with BOTH CHARACTERS after Clou said "attack while its tail's up!", and then it counterattacked twice. Luckily I'd healed just before and so didn't actually die in that battle at all.

    Hmmmmm..... so that's how you'll fool them....

    "No, way"

    There is an explanation! I believe Cloud felt the need to be macho to intimidate all the monsters and the girls watching him fight said monsters, so he thought that dropping off words so as to make his sentences undertandable would be the best way to do it.


    You can blame it either on the lack of brains or surplus of spikes.

    I thought Sony did the translation.

    I actually had problems understanding what was going on through the whole game. Just the way things were worded.... Too awkward....
