    Get me a tissue box...

    Yep its one of the most memorable scene on all rpg games. I tried to break the spell but I still remember everything about it. It brought tears to my eye and I was able to learn that sephiroth is one enemy that brought a whole game into despair.

    No. I couldn't care less for the character. Red XIII finding out the truth about his father was a much more emotional scene.

    I agree with the second part of your statement...

    Although I was shocked during my first playthrough, it did not have the effect on that so many people have talked about.

    Playing video games since 1988!

    The scene was spoiled for me by a walkthrough guide back in 1997. I stopped using walkthroughs ever since (well, maybe not completely).

    I never played it but I've seen the scene various times, I'm sure if I ever do play it it won't have as much impact as it did on most fans of the moment.

    Meh. I never used her because I knew she was going to die. I preferred the much bigger breasted Tifa anyways. My friends were blown away when I told them I went on the date with Tifa instead of Aeris.

    I can't believe I remember that. I played this game in what, 1995?

    It affected me, but nowhere near the way it affected others. I thought Celes's suicide attempt in FFVI was a more moving moment.

    The term "overrated"? It's overrated.

    Nope, those kind of scenes don't affect me. I wasn't mad either because I didn't use her that much, I always used Tifa and Barret(or Cid).

    Yeah, it did make me feel a bit sad. I agree that the scene where Nanaki finds the truth about his father was also a touching moment. It was an awesome game full of stuff like that.

    I agree with the Red XIII part, the music that went with that scene (Great Warrior) makes it much more emotional.

    Not that it was a spoiler for me personally, because I'll never play the game. But maybe you should at least change the title so you're not telling EVERYONE in the forum a huge spoiler without even clicking on the thread. This is a retro-forum after all. I'm sure there are still people that haven't played the game and want to, here of all places.

    Nah, I didn't care for Aeris or even use her in my party. That one part in the valley where Red XIII finds out about his pops is a lot more emotionally charged IMO.

    15 years ago, i was playing super mario 64 and goldeneye.

    When i actually did get around to playing the game, it was so boring that i stopped playing right after.
