Zack Fair:

is a non-player character from Final Fantasy VIIand the protagonist of its prequel, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. In Final Fantasy VII, he only appears in flashback sequences, which portray him as almost identical to Cloud Strife, the game's main protagonist, in physical appearance except having black hair and his pauldron being on both shoulders. When strung together, the sequences explain a great deal about Cloud's past and his connection to Sephiroth, the game's arch-villain. He also wielded the Buster Sword before Cloud.

Story

Zack was born in the town of Gongaga, where he spent his early years until he joinedShin-Ra's military forces around the age of 24. There, he was placed under the tutelage of Angeal Hewley for the next four years to become a member of SOLDIER.

Crisis Core

After the Wutai War was resolved, Zack, along with Angeal and Sephiroth (who at the time was considered a hero) were sent to Wutai to learn what had become of the SOLDIERs under Genesis. They learned that he had turned his back on Shin-Ra, and had to be stopped at all costs. Trailers from the game show Zack conducting various missions given by Lazard as a member of SOLDIER, and his early relationships with many recurring characters such as Cloud, Sephiroth, Tseng and Aeris. Crisis Core should also reveal how Cloud and Zack became best friends, and how Zack met and developed a relationship with Aeris. At one point in the game, Zack learn from Lazard that Sephiroth turned down a mission because he would not want to fight his only friends, Angeal Hewley, and Genesis Rhapsodos.

After the Genesis mission, Zack inherited the Buster Sword originally belonging to Angeal, and was soon assigned to Nibelheim with Sephiroth to investigate the nearby Mako reactor. They were accompanied by two Shinra troops; one of them whom happened to be Zack's friend, Cloud Strife. Upon investigating the reactor and returning to town, Sephiroth visited the nearby Shinra Mansion and discovered documents that he misinterpreted, and led him to believe he was the son of Jenova, whom he thought was one of the Ancients. The information drove Sephiroth insane, resulting in his destroying the town of Nibelheim and nearly all of its inhabitants. Following Tifa to the Nibelheim reactor and finding her injured inside of it, Zack eventually confronts Sephiroth in a duel, but Sephiroth defeats him easily. Sephiroth then heads into the deepest part of the reactor, towards a stasis tank that contains the one he calls "Mother", Jenova. Suddenly, Cloud appears from behind Sephiroth with the Buster Sword, and stabs him. Cloud then heads back to check on Tifa, when Sephiroth emerges from the inner reactor, carrying Jenova's severed head. Cloud and Sephiroth then battle again, the end of the fight leaving Sephiroth falling to his apparent death in a pit of mako, with Cloud and Zack severely wounded.

Last Order

Last Order:

Zack and Cloud are retrieved by Shin-Ra forces and kept in custody. They are subjected against their will to biological experimentation involving genetic material from Jenova, under the supervision of Professor Hojo. Eventually, Zack breaks out and literally drags Cloud with him during their escape. Zack gives Cloud some of his clothes and gets them transport to Midgar. During this time, Cloud is weak, groggy and somewhat delirious, as he had reacted more strongly to the experiments than Zack did. However, Zack talks continuously to the unresponsive Cloud about his life and his plans to become a mercenary in Midgar, get rich and be with his girlfriend. When they finally arrive outside of Midgar, the Shin-Ra security force that have been searching for them finally catch up. They try to detain the escaped prisoners, but Zack fights back to defend both Cloud and himself. The Shin-Ra troops, armed with machine guns, shoot Zack to death and leave Cloud for dead after seeing his vegetative state. However, Cloud manages to recover.

The combined weight of this entire trauma finally makes him snap, and he adopts Zack's persona, combining it with his own. He believes that he was successful in joining SOLDIER, and that he fulfilled Zack's role in the fateful mission to Nibelheim. Cloud takes Zack's buster sword and continues on to Midgar. Upon his arrival, Cloud seeks work as a mercenary, just as Zack said he intended to do. This is where Final Fantasy VII begins.

Final Fantasy:

Much of Final Fantasy VII's story revolves around Cloud's battle to reclaim his memory, to accept his true identity rather than relying on his constructed "Zack" personality, and to validate himself in a world that has rejected him. When the party visits the depressed town of Gongaga Village they learn that it was Zack's hometown. Aeris also reveals at one point that Zack was her first boyfriend, and that Cloud resembles him.

Get rid of them any way you want.

But the idea is to segregate them somehow from the rest of the society, strip them of their powers, somewhere rural, with no infrastructure, no roof over their heads, install a chip in them so we can monitor their whereabouts, an invisible fence, like the ones we use for dogs, and then tell them that we will pardon only one person. One who would rule the rest. Let them decide who will be in charge then. You gentlemen decide who is going to rule... Just a thought....

am sorry about the " laughing at you" no offence but i will tell you why : do you know that in his country they've arrested his friends , but can you tell why ?

usually you may think of drugs, sabotage, murder etc but no they r arrested just because of their ??!!!???!!!???!!!???......... taste in music!!!!!! yeah my friend they r arrested just because they love rock and metal music , and its not a one time thing it's been going on for years now in these country and now they r arresting anyone owns accessories shop that contain any kind of skulls or have a shape of skull on it "rings, earrings, Necklaces" and not just that you can not object or say "you cant do that" cause they will arrest your ass.and there is lots of these injustice constitutions,.

oh yeah one more thing i know it is hard for you to believe, but in this country you can not say any bad words about their government or their president, if you want to kill your self just go near any governmental institution and scream out one of these words,,i hate the president or i hate the government or anything related to, and you'll be vanished.

comparing to these people you r in haven...

Made you look. :P

There have been a lot of different speculation as to what to expect on 12/21/2012. There are websites preparing people for the end of time, charlatans, reputable scientist, religious leaders, pointing at signs of the end of times (no rhyme intended).

What are your PERSONAL thoughts on the subject? Do you feel the same or different? What do you think 12/21/2012 will do for the humanity, if anything?

For me, I would say the story can keep me going through, it was a tough decision between this and the gameplay, but I remember that the reason why I continued playing FFX-2 was mainly to understand what happens next in the story. I didn't like the characters, the gameplay or many other things in that game, the only thing that kept giving me a reason to keep playing until the end was the story, so I guess I would go for that :)

[QUOTE="_Sharpshooter_"][QUOTE="matastig"]thank you but my friend is in the hospital and i am worried :( so i have to stay awake , thank you for your concern :)

NotAFurry

Gameplay clearly, the rest a useless anyways without good gameplay.PStringa

That's a tough question, as an author I'd normally say story, but I wouldn't play 136 hrs straight of Frogger for the story {unless I was really bored}. Game play is what is needed for games, Mass Effect is perfect for this discussion it has both elements complementing each over. BTW I suffer from Insomnia right now it's 12:30 and most days its day break before I sleep. Your friend wont get better quicker if you stay awake. You could end up sick your self so becarefull.
