Who rembers in X-2 when Shinra said something like "Thats the life force that runs through the planet, I one day want to harness that to fuel a giant city" Mako energy, IE the life force of the planet. his name is Shinra, Shinra Corp. I caouldn't have been the only one to notice that

X-2 wasn't that bad, the begining is infinitly lame, but I liked the rest of the game

I have never played X-2 and dont plan on it, but who knows it could connected, but I doubt it.

It seems like something they would do, and the comment had nothing to do with the story or anything, but when Shinra said that, if I could properly control Yuna, I would have shot him

well considering that FF tactics, FF tactics advances and FFXII are on the same world called Ivalice, it might just be true that these two worlds are connected. Maybe they are the same world? Could it be that the people of FFX where the people of FFVII before the ancients arrived 2000 years ago?

I agree, I dont think they are related, they just used the name. FFX and FFVII took place in two completly differnt places.

if you look at the two maps next to each other, they don't look that different, Spira has one less continent, and everything looks smaller it's possible the water level could lower to reveal more land.

Actually the ancients were killed by Jenova and only a few survived.

But in my opinion, since Jenova came from another world, I would assume that spira is a different world from FFVII but same universe.

yeah i remember it, but i dont think they did a good job of tying them together. I would think they were trying to say that they were the same world, but FF& history doesnt match too well. The ancients were alients also i thought, but some stayed behind. Jenova comes and kills a good bit it them and also we go into the farplane and no mako poisoning (mako seemed alot like lava in FF7). I think they could've done with out tyring to connect the worlds.

I doubt that there is any real connection there at all.

Is it even the same persons that made the story for those games?, I doubt it .

I have not played X-2 before but it sounds like a strong reference to Shinra Corp.

They were supposed to be in different worlds so I dont think they were implying it would happen later on,but it was definitely done on purpose IMO.

Yes, X and X-2 are prequels of VII. This was said by Nomura in Final Fantasy X-2: International+Last Mission Ultimania.
