I played 7 so long ago I can't even remember the entire storyline, except Cloud wins and the world is saved. OK, a little more then that, what with pseudo--mystical gaia earth lifestream new age magic, but I think it's valid when wikipedia says that FF7 is considered one of the most complicated storylines in RPG console history.

I just watched Advent Children went oooh shiny, and then went and read wikipedia and got the storyline in a nutshell (which I still don't entirely understand), then went and read a whole lot of fanfiction

And watched a lot of shiny songvids with incredibly beautiful people, seriously, Crisis Core has some of the prettiest and shiniest male characters I've ever seen.
