I understand the physical game is difficult to find, but emulators are pretty by the dime nowadays, especially for something as high-demand as FFVII. Don't get me wrong, anyone who came in after Advent Children and bothered to play the game is fucking awesome in my book, because they resisted the temptation of an easy and shallow fix---and that temptation is exactly why I wish Comp. (and especially Advent Children, since the others are at least GAMES) didn't exist.

...Oh my god I think I just need to write a dissertation and get it out of my system.
