gilgamesh is di same person he said it hiself he travel di world for weapons dat means he lives for very long time. He was a summon summons last a long ass time. He had multiple weapons of main characters weapons da two dat i saw mainly was buster sword and brotherhood. Off of ff12. and i think all summons can travel dimensions somehow to. dere summoned by many diffrent people so you can't just say dat Bahamut is different from dat one cause its di same.

Well, when you get the Exalibur II, you read a note on how someone left the Excalibur II because they thought it was junk and gave Gilgamesh the Excalipur.

I say the FFXII Gilgamesh is a different one. He has fakes. Gilgamesh in FFVIII has the real versions of his swords (Exalibur, Excalipoor, Massamune and Zantetsuken)

He doesn't have fakes. I've recognised the Buster Sword, the Brotherhood, the Tournesol, the Murasame/Masamune (I could never remember which is which) and I daresay the rest of his swords bare some significance in previous games. They're not fake, they're just different to previous games, which is entirely acceptable in a new game. ;D

Just a bit of info to bite at...

That's what makes me think he's the same guy throughout the games, travelling all his dimentions and whatnot.

So yeah, I think it's the same dude

Then why does he have a different Zantetsuken?
I think it's the same Gilgamesh in FFV, 8 and 9, but different in XII. Though that's just me. Doesn't it say somewhere that Gilgamesh's swords aren't proven to be the real deal?

EDIT:
Bestiary Entry

Genus: Elite Mark
Classification: ???
"An ancient Man of Mystery, traveling the Dimensions with his lone Companion, Enkidu, in search of a legendary Sword. It is said he confronts all Adventurers he meets and challenges them for their Weapons. Each of his six Arms bears a Weapon of great Fame, yet there is no Evidence that any are the genuine Article Petitioned as a Mark by a Swordsman bereft of his beloved Blade."

The Japanese writing on the side of his Buster Sword in XII roughly translates as 'Replica' or 'Fake'.

So like I said, FFV, FFVIII and FFIX have the same Gilgamesh. XII is someone else.

Umm he is same Gilgamesh. He is same goofball in V as he is in XII. Gilgamesh is always same, he just travelling through different dimensions. Why he looks different in games is a mystery, maybe dimensions make him to fit with his appearance and as VI Advance suggests Gilgamesh is an Esper.

I love Gilgamesh, not only he is cool and has his own uber them he is also funny. I think he and Enkidu deserve their own game.

I don't see how the Gilgamesh from FFIX can be linked to any other Gilgamesh unless he's a toned-down, less hostile Gilgamesh.

In the previous games he was either the second-in-charge bad guy to Ex-Death or the summon who came in with one swipe and obliterated the enemy. In FFIX, he's jsut a treasure hunter...

I think that Gilgamesh represents somehow each of the games that has passed. With each new FF game, he seems to being wielding a significant sword from a previous game. Also his role is slightly similar in each FF game, making him have attacks that are instant kills.
