Have you seen the latest screens of Square Enix's next Final Fantasy? Worth a look if you're into this series. A lot of U.S. gamers hate JRPGs because, I don't know, they don't have enough Steve Carrell or Judd Apatow or a trendy detached sense of irony, I guess. Not me. I've actually got Final Fantasy VII up on my PS3 as I'm typing this. I'm cooking around 53 hours, leveled in the 70s, and running the "unlimited" elixir exploit in the Great Glacier area so I can zip back to the endgame's Northern Crater and take advantage of the 8,000 experience points each Magic Pots that waddle around and shout "gimme elixir!" Which, if you care to inflict a single point of damage, you'll have to.
If it's not weird and illogical as well as complex and completely gorgeous, it's not a Final Fantasy.

yeah but did you know about the hidden and/or secret enemies in the northern crater called "bounces" there are 5 of them in a fight which you can fight them as many times as you want, and give 2400 AP a battle, which if you have a weapon with "triple" as the effect you get an ungodly amount of AP for your materia.
