Theres this video on youtube called the "The Pieces of Cloud Strife"... This video probably sums up the life of Cloud from final fantasy 7. I never really knew how powerful the story was or the story of his life, but man I was literally moved to tears by watching this video. I've been playing everything that has to do with Final Fantasy 7, and when I watched the video its like I finaly understood.... I understood how sad the life of Cloud Strife is....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This video is basically about Clouds guilt for not being able to save Zack & Aerith and so he walks thru life unable to move on until he can learn to forgive himself for things that have happened in the past over which he had no control so he can become whole again and not just the pieces of the man he wants to be.
NOTE: the japanese bit Zack says to Cloud at the beginning of the video means "Live".
(this is pasted from the youtube page.)

I used to wonder why he was the way he was. Why was he so sad in Advent children... After Playing Final Fantasy 7 : Crisis core it became clear. You play as Zack Fair who is in every way the complete oppisite of Cloud. He is happy go lucky, and always looking at the brighter side... If there was Never a Zack Fair there would have never been Cloud Strife.... Out of all the Final Fantasy's I've ever played this one has got to be the saddest... Now more than ever as a fan I wish that Square Enix would remake this masterpiece with the technology of today... it deserves as much... this is one of those games that has earned its place on gaming history...
