    I really hope that you can't revive Leo. The other stuff seems kind of legit.

    Yeah, reviving Leo seems like a bit much. But I guess it would stupid for them to put out the exact same game they've released twice already.

    I'd probably get Leo, just to have him. But losing Phoenix would suck. I think Starlet teaches some of the same spells, but not as fast.

    Once, when I rented FF3 for the SNES, there was a save file already on it and for some reason Terra could use "Shock". I know now that it was the work of a game genie, and that explains why it was Terra. Because you have to start a new game. And it sucks because Shock covered up the second command, which at the time was still supposed to be Magic, I think. Is Magic ever her second command? I know she doesn't get Morph right off the bat, but is Magic still third, even before you get Morph?

Apparently General Leo can be resurrected at the cost of the Phoenix magicite, once resurrected Leo can join your party. Back when Final Fantasy VI (aka Final Fantasy III in the USA) was released there was a false rumor about resurrecting Leo by finding an extra dragon in the dinosaur forest. After spending many hours slaying Tyrannosaurs Rexes the rumor was proven to be false. As a surprise, Emperor Gestahl’s ghost is a new playable character. To obtain him you need to track down the “master crown”. In battle Gestahl has a “summon” command as his ability, this command differes from using magicite since it is part of the four battle menu commands. Also we now know how Gilgamesh can be found in Final Fantasy VI Advance. First you have to buy the “excalipar” sword at the auction house then bet the blade at the coliseum. After a quick fight Gilgamesh will challenge you and if you win you earn the Gilgamesh magicite. Check beyond the break to see more pictures of Leo & Gesthal and a video of a FF6 party battling Gilgamesh.

    HOLY CRIZZAP!







    Plus if you click on the link, there is a video of a battle with Gilgamesh!

    This is too cool.
    It's kind of hard to tell whether all of this is true or not.

    It's nice to see they took the trouble to scale up and redraw Gilgamesh's FFV sprite so it doesn't look terribly out of place. Unfortunately, despite the effort that went into FFVA's music, the GBA synth here sounds pretty dismal.

    Reviving Leo and recruiting Ghastra are just all kinds of sacrilege. It just goes to show that the original versions of the 16-bit games are still the definitive ones.

    WTF, Square-Enix. As if seeing this in one forum with insane people* wasn't enough, it gets to be confirmed.

    I'm with Kishi on this one.

    *Not this one, btw. xD

    Very strange indeed. Maybe fan service is going too far at this point, I can't really tell. Egh, I'm stoked either way.

    Yes, I'll inevitably end up buying it and playing it until the cartridge melts regardless.

    It's a palette-swap of Onion. As you may know, the Japanese like to use "dash" to mean "new and improved."

    In Woolsey's translation, Onion was called Pipsqueak, and Onion Dash was called Tomb Thumb.

    The Leo thing will have me pissed for a week, until I forget.
    Leave some shards under the belly
    Lay some grease inside my hand
    It's a sentimental jury
    And the makings of a good plan

    Have we established that the Phoenix esper would bring Leo back...and why would that work when it didnt work on Rachel...that just doesnt make sense

    And where did Geshtal come from??? Wasnt he dead too??? I dont know, but if you are actually able to bring Leo back, you should get an item of super value, but not play as him.
    Beware of my look a like!

    From what I gather, he still is. It's his ghost....
