Aragorn in Final Fantasy Eight?

I got this email from Dargon, regarding his adventures in Final Fantasy:

Maybe someone has pointed this out before, but I just found this today.I was playing one of the greatest video game series of all time(Final Fantasy, FF8 to be exact) I made it to the final boss and the boss summons this gigantic creature to do battle with me. And the name of this giant creature? ARAGORN!! (OK, so it's a character of good in a bad guy's body, but hey, it's still cool!) I almost didn't want to kill the creature, but I had to beat the game. Maybe the makers of Final Fantasy (Squaresoft) would be
interested in making a LOTR video game for PS2! That would be the greatest (after the movies of course).

If any Final Fantasy experts out there know of any other mention of LOTR characters within the games let me know at Berendir@theonering.net

And yes, that would be pretty cool if Squaresoft were to make a LOTR RPG! Lets just hope its more like FF9 and less like FF8.
