I've played this game 3 times (beaten it twice and the other time, my first one, my save got messed up), and I'm thinking of playing it again.

So far I've had these main parties:

Cloud, Aeris, Barrett (I've used this one always until, you know)
Cloud, Vincent, Barrett (used this one the first two times)
Cloud, Yuffie, Barrett (the last one I used, did a 100% run with this one)

And I'm thinking of trying something different this time (probably keeping Barrett though, because I really like him both as a character and a warrior) so I want to know what parties other people use, and, if possible, why they use it.

So, post/discuss your FFVII parties

Cloud, Tifa, Red XIII

Cloud/Barrett/Cid best limit breaks,best physical power = ez

Honestly under the materia system it doesn't matter who you use. Their stats are so negligible that it really doesn't matter, it's not like someone is going to have an advantage casting magic or anything like that in this game. The only real difference is limit breaks, but those are also all useful enough that it doesn't really matter either. I'd say just use who you like, since the materia system makes everyone a clone of each other basically.

Yeah, it's true, only limit breaks make a real diference in this game (and also some of the ultimate weapons)... even though I got all the limit breaks and weapons for every character on my last run, I never really used them (tried them once to see the animation, and that's it). I think I'm leaning towards using Cid, but also considering Tifa.

Cid. Triple Materia Growth Weapon + Highwind = Win

cloud/vincent/red 13

pretty much this.

personally i would sub in tifa or possibly cait sith for barret, but you cant really go wrong with a mr t wanna-be.

my fav game of all time.

Beaten it several times.

My favs were always cloud cid red XIII

Cloud, Tifa, Cid is what I've used a few times.

I've beat it so many times I've used ALL the chars lol.
