Finally got my copy delivered on Saturday - Brand new and still in cellophane!

W. O. W.

I remember this as being one of the greatest games of all time, but I don't remember it being THIS great! I truly am blown away by, yes, a PSOne game. It is now my favourite game of the moment and I'll definately not be getting rid of this baby again!

If you no longer own this, or have never played it, I strongly suggest you get hold of a copy - you won't be disappointed (unless last-gen graphics are a problem to you).

I'm only up to the bit where Shinra are trying to bring the plate down over Sector 7, but I can safely say I won't be on Live or PS2 Online for a while yet!

By the time I've finished this, I'll have Crystal Chronicles to get through too...

Anyhoo, please post your views/memories etc. of this game on here so I can see how many of you feel the same as me about this gem of a game.

I hope it is remade like the rumours say...

use the chocobo materia, it won't deal a lot of damage but i'd have to say about 60 percent of the time it freezes the creature right up allowing you to beat the living hell out of him.

What i did was smash the magic side in first with my physical attacks and then just wail on the other with my summons.

If Cyclones' way doesn't work, go back and use physical attacks first. I think that is how I did it.

I don't remember any underwater materia either. I never bothered trying to beat that boss or breeding the Chocos up to get KOTR.

D'oh! I knew that, but is there a strategy to it? You say Magic first eh? I'll give that a shot.

I remember trying the method of killing one side first, but the other side ended up killing me :(

Oh, and I did everything in this game except for Gold Chocobo, the final boss and the two weapons.

How in God's name do you kill them?!!

EVIL!

Ah, I remember that beastie.

Smash the magical side in with magic, physical in with physical.

Magic first.

I think.

Ta-daaa!

Can you tell me what is the best strategy for killing the half magic/half physical monster in Sephiroth's mansion? I'm not there yet, but It's where I gave up on the game last time I had it. I really want to complete it this time!

I did it just for the fact so that i could toy with Emerald a bit instead of having to smack him with KOTR straight off to avoid running out of time. Plus also i wouldn't be happy if i was just about to kill him and the timer hits 20 before i could get my attack off and i'd have to repeat it all again.
