i was playing through FFVII again, and i got up to the part where you get the titain materia, at that blown up reactor, and went into the house, and saw a couple there, asking cloud about their son Zack... i only just realised that his parents lived there, so i put Aerith and Tifa in my party

Tifa - met Zack in the reactor 5 years ago
Aerith - Zack's girlfriend

Did anyone else remember this?
 
Yeah I remember them. I wish that they played a little bigger part in the story. You'd think that Cloud meeting Zack's parents while wearing Zack's persona would trigger something big inside him
 
I was somewhat hoping for... more, when I came across them. To only part with a few words and leaving it at that strikes me as off.

Ah, well. Not a huge loss, but it would have been nice for them to find out about Zack. Probably for the morbid factor on my behalf. :p
 
Zacks parents

If im not mistaken isnt there also a scene that follows about Sephiroth and Zack at the same time (while cloud was the unknown soldier in the scene?) Yeah its a scene that goes on for about 5 mins but if you didnt enter that house for some reason you never found out the connection of the 3 of them....I just found it rather funny that Aeris never put 2 and 2 together with Zack and Cloud.
 
There was a scene you could get in the mansion I think. Anyways I do remember that part at the village. Think it was Gongogo Village.
 
Here's the dialogue, if anyone hasn't seen it. (Spoilerz, natch).

===IF AERIS IS ONLY IN PARTY===

Cloud: "Aeris..."

Aeris: "What a shock...I didn't know Zack was from this town."

Cloud: "You know him?"

Aeris: "Didn't I tell you? He was my first love."

Cloud: "............"

Aeris: "Zack...SOLDIER First Class. Same as Cloud."

Cloud: "Strange, there aren't that many who make First Class, but I've never heard of him."

Aeris: "That's all right. It's all in the past now. I was just worried because I heard he's been missing."

Cloud: "Missing?"

Aeris: "I think it was 5 years ago. He went out on a job, and never came back. He loved women, a real ladies' man. He probably found someone else...Hey? What's wrong?"
R1 --> Poor guy
R2 --> (...jealous...envious...)

R1: "I don't really mind that I haven't heard from him. But I feel for his parents. Let's go, Cloud."

R2: "Are you...jealous? Hmm? Hmmm? Are you, Cloud? I'm kidding. I'm sorry. Let's go, Cloud."
===IF TIFA WAS ALSO PRESENT===

Tifa: "Zack......"

Cloud: "Do you know him?"

Tifa: "N, no, I don't know him!"

Cloud: "Your face tells me differently."

Tifa: "I told you, I don't!"

Cloud: "A, all right."

Tifa: "............That sounds just like you leaving town, and saying 'I'm joining SOLDIER!'."

Cloud: "There were a lot of guys like that back then."

Tifa: "You must really be something making it in SOLDIER out of a group like that. I really respect you..."
R1 --> I just got lucky
R2 --> I worked hard for it

R1: "Don't be so humble! Cloud, thanks for caring."
R2: "Hard work pays off, huh. Cloud, thanks for caring."

Yeah, one'd think the parents would immediately suspect something fishy with Cloud's mannerisms or demeanor, since he basically riffed 'em from Zack... But, I guess that wasn't the time to reveal any big plot spoilers since it would minimize the 'damage' of the ones told later. You'd be surprised how many people miss the scene!
 
Wow, that wasn't spam. lol

Yea, I saw the scene... didn't think much of it. I wished there was more you could do with them later on but at that point they were just not a big deal. It would've been nice though, since Zack and Cloud were somewhat close, that Cloud would've revisited them and said something meaningful about how he passed. :/ I went back at the end of the game... there's nothing to see.
