This is video #029 in my Final Fantasy VII playthrough. The party finally, finally makes their escape from the Shinra Building. Along the way, they have to race down Midgar Highway, and Cloud has to keep the Shinra bikers from killing the party in the truck. At the end of the road, they face a huge tank called the Motor Ball. As the battle starts, I have L1 and R1 pressed not to try to escape, but to reduce the damage from Motor Ball's back attack. Having two Lightning materia is useful here, as well, because Motor Ball is weak to it. Also, it helps to have as many party members as possible with Cure + All.
After the battle is over, the party climbs down and prepares to leave Midgar. There is another opportunity here to manipulate affection points. Barret, Tifa, or Aeris will each earn an affection point if you include him or her in the active party. If you want to date Barret or Yuffie, make a party with Barret and Red XIII. If you want to date Tifa, include Tifa in the party. If you want to date Aeris, include Aeris in the party.
Next destination: Kalm to the northeast. It's not a long walk. You may not even encounter an enemy on the way.
Thank you for watching!
