I would share the link, but my browser isn't working at the moment. I can edit this post with the link later.
I don't trust those novellas since they conflict with the game's story. Case closed.

Sorry, no. Please refer to limitations of computer graphics waaay back in 1997.
I won't, especially when that was an FMV where character emotions are showed in the best way they can be. If SNES FFs can portray character emotions well enough, surely PSX FFs can. And Cloud didn't look especially sad when dropping Aeris.

You think? Sorry, not going to take that point then. What 'you think' has nothing to do with me, especially not in a debate.
Well, there's two choices:
1) It was Cloud who said that (which I think). If that's true, it means Cloud was devastated by the loss of Tifa and his hometown.
2) It was Zack who said that. If that's true, it means Cloud was feeling like Zack when Aeris died.

Either way, either Cloud is just as devastated about Aeris' death than when he thought Tifa would die, OR he wasn't devastated about Aeris' death at all since it was Zack's feelings.

So? Your point is?
When Cloud was crying there, he was devastated by loads of things, like his hometown being burned, Tifa being near-dead and him having to fight Sephiroth.

Sorry, NO. Sephiroth states that sentence AFTER Cloud says that line. So no, your interpretation is not valid.
My turn: So? Your point is?

Gee....I wonder.

You want a very nice breakdown of Cloud interactions with Tifa and Cloud's references to Aerith in Disc 2 and 3?

Look here : http://www.geocities.com/ff7lovetriangle/Preface.htm

Read it before trying to tell me that Cloud is all about Tifa in Disc 2 and 3.
Sorry, NO. Especially when you're clearly biased for Cloud x Aeris.

Same applies to Tifa, no? You can ALSO choose to tell Aerith that Tifa is NOT your girlfriend. Besides, Johnny also refers to Aerith as Cloud's 'new girlfriend' and that is NOT optional.

Aerith is also the DEFAULT DATE for Cloud. Even if you score the same affection points will Tifa, you will still go on the date with Aerith.

Let me share a tip with you, pal. The Dating Mechanism is NOT a good thing to use in debates, especially as it puts Tifa in a complete disadvantage.
Yeah, but the dating mechanism also determines the scene between Cloud and Tifa at the end of Disc 2. And I have it easier time getting on a date with Tifa than with Aeris, especially when you can get Tifa 20+ affection points before you've even met with Aeris. Besides, what YOU choose (to get Aeris) has nothing to do with me.

Oh, and when thinking about who Cloud gets, Aeris dies at the end of Disc 1, which puts her in a complete disadvantage, actually, out of the equation.
