Spent hours on that Cactaur Island!
That was on Final Fantasy VIII.
I personally loved Final Fantasy VII, the Materia worked very well and I was shocked when it wasn't in VIII, I don't like VIII.
What were your teams when you beat Sephiroth at the end? Mine was: Cloud, Barret, and Red XIII. Never managed to beat Ruby and Emerald though :( Got a Gold Chocobo mind-you, along with Knights of the Round summon Materia; that kicked ass.
The materia was a great idea and worked exceptionally, but then again, so did FFVIII's Junctioning system. It's nice to have variety, I know I couldn't played the following Final Fantasies using the same system. However, what the best system is is certainly a debatable issue.
As for Sephiroth, I believe I used Cloud, Tifa and Cid, and just hit him with Quadruple Bahamut Zeroes and a steady old Knights Of The Round attack. Kinda takes the strategy out of it, but it's a hard job to knock his wall down and then get in a devastating attack.
I remember once managing to bring down Ruby Weapon, but Emerald was just too much, and too boring.
Chocobo breeding was a helluva lot of fun, as was toning up a Chocobo to be the best in the Chocobo races.
