In mah PS2 version of the game, I completed it without cheats,
On mah PS3 version, I did it with cheats since I was lazy.
Wich obviously resulted me to be stuck at 98% even though I defeated all Elite Enemies, and got EVERYTHING in the game. Stupid game >__<

Right, on the valley of avalrl where you go to see the hermit, do the cheats for whatever console you've got it on and then use Cynder's shadow attack all the way to the back of the cave, the cutscenen won't start and if you're lucky, sometimes you can get throgh the wall..... smilie
