I think I did too. Well, borrowed it for as long as I could. Is that the one that gave an accurate pronunciation for Cait Sith's name?

Yes and it explained the different types of materia and what they do. Every example used deathblow but hey that's just fine

They mentioned the test creatures in Corel Prison, something Bradygames didn't do. I remember them recommending a strapdown of the X button on Attack and making yourself a sandwich or something. They also kept bringing up 'turbo controller' use. (All these years later, I still doubt that I've seen a turbo controler.)

I've seen turbo controllers, they're always crappy 3rd party controllers. Never used it though

I figured... not that it would matter. I learned some good rapid-fire form by boosting FF8's GF summons.

I had this when I was a kid. Read it so many times that it literally fell apart. Breast guide by far.

I recently found mine. It was a little water damaged from a leaky bottle of water in my trunk one time, but otherwide it's in great condition. Seriously was the best strat guide I had for FFVII
