I got all the way to the run up to the final battle when I saved my game and went to sleep. It was late at night after a long day and I had to go to work in the morning. I went to work and spent most of the day thinking about finishing the game when I got home. Someone &#8220;broke into the house&#8221; and stole a bunch of stuff, mostly my roommate&#8217;s fancy clothes and, of course, my Playstation (with the last FFVII disc inside). <\/p>\n<p>Fast forward over a decade later, Steam has Final Fantasy VII on sale for less than $5. Do I buy this game and spend a bunch of hours just to get back to where I was or do I just let it go, especially since I recently got Saints Row 3, all of the BioShock games, Far Cry 3, and a bunch of Skyrim mods?<\/p>\n<p>I have about 12 hours to make up my mind about this sale and even if I pass on it, I can still get the game for about $12, but I am wondering if I really want to spend all of the time to get back to where I was. At this point in my life, how I spend my time is a lot more important than how I spend my money.<\/p>\n<p>I found this video on YouTube that picks up right where I left off. I haven&#8217;t watched the whole thing yet, just enough to verify that&#8217;s what I remember seeing before I cut the game off for the night.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"420\" height=\"315\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/U_tFxgxr2YQ?version=3&amp;hl=en_US\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Years and years ago, I was playing Final Fantasy VII on my Playstation.
