I never got the red sub because I never figured out how to "lose" at the sub game.

Just keep firing torpedoes and you'll win.

I only found out a few years ago that you could get the red one, i just assumed that when you lost you had to restart the mission.

Same here, i assume that about all minigames haha

ya, the red sub is kinda hard to get considering the sub game plays itself. You also lose out on the large materia, so it's not really worth it just to get the red sub. They're exactly the same.

drfeelgud88 · « **Reply #104 on:** 2009-11-11 08:30:40 »

So, if you fail to get the huge materia and end up getting the red sub, then that means that you will NOT get Bahamut ZERO!

The Seer of Shadows · « **Reply #105 on:** 2009-11-11 09:09:55 »

If you don't get Bahamut ZERO from a Huge Materia, then you can dig him up in Bone Village by searching a certain spot. The chances of getting him are a little slim though, so you will probably have to retry several times.

So yeah, if you only get three of the Huge Materia, you still have a chance to get Bahamut ZERO and, later on, Master Summon.

Wow. I didn't know that. I thought once you fail, that's it! No more Bahamut ZERO.

WOW! Nice! Thanks for that image obesebear.

I never knew the selection of things you could find at Bone Village was so limited, I always though it worked more like Angelo from FF8, with a couple surefire items built in.

Anyone mentioned that Barret is the only black guy in the game (except some other npcs)? And where was he born? Where do black people in FF7 come from?

titeguy3 · « **Reply #111 on:** 2009-11-12 14:32:03 »

Where ever there isn't money.

The slums, Corel post-destuction, desert prison, also notice that all of the bandit enemies appear to be black.

Just sayin'.

Kudistos Megistos · « **Reply #112 on:** 2009-11-12 15:12:25 »

There are actually quite a lot of black people in FF7, by the standards of FF, at any rate (which isn't a surprise, as most FF games have a pseudo-mediaeval European setting), although I'd never noticed before that most of the black people in FF7 do come from poorer areas.

Amongst the named characters, there is also Rude and Kotch (one of Don Corneo's henchmen) and Mr Coates (the boss down in Corel prison)

titeguy3 · « **Reply #113 on:** 2009-11-12 16:41:24 »

haha, oh Rude... I feel like he's 50% Black, 50% Puerto Rican, and 50% cool

Does anyone else find it bizarre how lonely of a guy Kotch is if you talk to him when Aerith gets picked for the don corneo STD-party? Kinda makes you feel bad for the guy and like he's not really a bad guy at all and just a misconstrued individual making a living however he can. Whereas Scotch is the "evil" one, who tries to gangrape then (after that fails) tries to kill Cloud. I feel like there's a whole story there in the dynamic between the two. Kotch is the tough looking guy who's gentle at heart, and Scotch is that anime-esque character who looks like your typical "megane" (tr: four-eyes) but actually has a cunning, heartless demeanor.

...I should shut up now before Square reads this and makes another crappy spinoff that I'm going to buy.

I always thought rude was tanned, not black

Anyone notice how in the Coral flashback Scarlet is shooting without a gun?

It's very hard to tell in FF7, since the faces aren't very detailed

Pfft, she's head of the Weapons department, isn't she?

Perhaps she has some tiny, disguised James Bond-style gun that you can't see very well from a distance

You know, the "pretending to have weapons" thing is one of the only things i don't like about FF7.

lol@ just before you fight the big arm thingy and cloud "gets his sword out" to attack reno

...we really should do something about that

...although, come to think of it, stuff like that was what made FF7 what it is

lol i like how Cloud is just holding his crotch and Cid and Reno dont even seem bothered

drfeelgud88 · « **Reply #120 on:** 2009-11-21 02:10:00 »

You know what I think is funny? You ever noticed that the 1st Class SOLDIER unit is worth about 960 exp each, and the 2nd Class SOLDIER unit is worth about 1000 exp each. I bet nobody ever noticed that, lol. I find it hilarious though... I guess the 1st Class soldiers aren't as valuable as the 2nd Class soldiers.

The Seer of Shadows · « **Reply #121 on:** 2009-11-21 04:05:34 »

I find it laughable that people actually believe Cloud when he tells them that he is a 1st class SOLDIER. His ability is nothing of the sort until you train him to it.

Angeal, Genesis, Sephiroth, and maybe Zack should all be given a special rank within SOLDIER. 1st class doesn't quite do them justice.

Speaking of Sephiroth... WHY did Lucrecia sleep with Hojo??

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #122 on:** 2009-11-21 04:09:10 »

cuz she slept with everyone hojo... vincents dad... vincent mayb?

drfeelgud88 · « **Reply #123 on:** 2009-11-21 04:16:25 »

Yeah. Those three DID deserve a higher ranking than 1st class because they were under the Jenova project. (Oh wait, this wasn't confirmed until they disappeared... Nvm.)
And yeah! Hojo is a pretty disgusting man. Nerdy scientist; and if Lucrecia is as beautiful as she sounds (and by the way Vincent makes her sound)... YUK!! Lol.

The Seer of Shadows · « **Reply #124 on:** 2009-11-21 06:40:59 »

Based on her picture in her Final Fantasy Wiki article, she's is quite attractive (by video game standards). She could do better than Hojo, definitely.

Someone should've told Sephiroth in the game that he is not the son of a powerful alien... actually, he's the son of a whore who slept with everybody
