We'll say right off that you're only going to appreciate this video/slideshow if:
a. you've played
Final Fantasy VIIb. you liked
Final Fantasy VIIc. you actually still remember
Final Fantasy VII Seriously, if you don't fit the above listed criteria, then this one is going to be a head scratcher.
These videos (one also after the jump) contain pictures of places around Earth that look just like they came out of the Squaresoft classic Final Fantasy VII. Hold on, it's cooler than it sounds.
Gaia is fully represented in these videos. Everything from Midgar and the Shinra Electric Power Company to wide open fields and chocobo races are represented here. Some of the shots (I won't ruin it for you) are absolutely spot-on, which makes me think that someone spent a lot of time creating these videos.
The videos are set to the orchestrated tracks from the Final Fantasy VII Reunion CD, so it's also nice to hear as well as see. Enjoy.

OMG IT IS ALL REAL!
"Ooh, Nibelheim!"
"Ooh, the Golden Saucer!"
"Ooh, those fucking dolphins!"
Etc...
Someone spent a loooooong time doing that.
And these people have way too much time on their hands...
Seriously though, agreed someone has waaaaaaay to much free time.
Also, reminded me that I kind of liked the music more than the game itself.
"Saving the world from Meteor - it's a Dirty Job."
and wow did i recognize a lot of those places for having played the game over 5 years ago... though i don't remember the dolphins.
@Topher: What song?
OR IS IT?
D:
reminds me, i haven't played ff7 this year yet. I wanted to beat it once more for the 10th anniversary.
