I saw it in an issue of EGM, don't remember which issue, but it was early 2000s.

Heard a kid on the school bus talking about it. I didn't know what it even was at the time, but the way he described it was so vivid I could recall it when I finally played it years later.

It has to be the strategy guide. I used to read that like it was an actual novel.

Someone I used to know spoiled it for me when I was just starting the game (this was in 97 when the game was released).

i think it was literally from the porn site
either that or from Advent Children because i bought that without playing the game because it looked cool i don't remember which came first i remember seeing the old LegendaryFrog flash animations and that was my introduction to the characters. there's references to the spoiler in those iirc but i had no idea what it was talking about back then ...

It might have been from the first issue of PSX Magazine. What an issue that was.

I don't even remember. Voted for "other board or website" but I can't really rule Board 8 out. Could have been a gaming magazine like EGM too.

I actually didn't know much about FFVII back in 2003 when I first joined the website. Seeing Cloud dominate the contest baffled me, and the memes about the spoiler basically gave it away.

Playing the game 7 or 8 years after it came out. I do recall my friend kinda hinting that I shouldn't get dependent on that character but I didn't fully understand the implication.

I think it's a testament to how widespread this spoiler is/was that a poll held on one of the biggest FF7 bastions on the internet still only has 1/3 of the respondents having learned the spoiler from playing the actual game.

I forget exactly, but my older brother played the game before I did and I think it was either through him or one of his friends.

From a magazine. It wasn't the strategy guide. It rated the characters and said if they were useful and it mentioned said spoiler.

I don't remember, I was a kid and my mum played the game first so maybe from her, or the strategy guide which I definitely will have looked through. It definitely wasn't from playing the game myself (although I do remember a rumour that you could swap the identity of the spoilers by doing different stuff from the start, and so I did try that.)

I honestly don't remember. Don't think it was from playing the game since I wasn't able to get it until about a year after it came out and I had the guide. I'm thinking it was either from a friend or magazine article before I even had the guide, though.

It was a magazine. I don't think it was even a guide, more like a 'tips' section that just showed where all the best weapons were. Aeris' entry ended with "

I honestly don't even remember. It's something I kind of remember always knowing once I got into/starting hearing about video games. Very Darth Vaderish in that way.
I remember there being this one guy who had a web site(s) all about FFVII and OoT and how they were clearly the best games of all time, so maybe there. Does that extremely basic opinion ring a bell to any one? He flipped his **** when the Wind Waker art first came out. --- Congrats on Advokaiser for winning the 2018 Guru Contest! Yesmar ...

Feel like it had to be when I popped online, as FFVII was already years old so sometimes people put spoilers around it and sometimes people didn't. And it was just a "okay" for me until I actually got to learn about the game.
