i finished playin the game a week ago, and i think it is great! i dont know why ppl say it was soo crap or anythin like that the junctioning system was great and really useful, the story was a little bit on the down side but still was ok, and the characters were great especially Selphie so funny and cute! lol many great memories, i think its slightly better that ff9, but after playin ff8 i wanted to play ff9 again 4 some reason? anyways this game rules my fave ff to date
You managed to say all of that in one sentence…
I agree with you on most of your points though. FFVIII certainly gets more crap than it deserves.
EDIT:Wait, I missed the exclamation marks. My bad.
3 sentences actually.

And yes, FF8 gets alot of crap for nothing :[
i like 8 but never had the patience to finish after my brother ruined my 3 best files before disk 4.
Well, VIII was certainly a lot better than VII.
Not sure if I can agree with you there, PiP, but it was still fantastic.
FFVIII is my fave too :)
yea FFVIII would probably be my second fav. My fav right now is FFIX. :p
Yeah, its my favorite too though I have competition when it comes to FFVI and VII which are also my favorites. FFVIII I considered to be one of the most daring and experimental of the series and I looked at it that Square wanted to create another Final Fantasy but not to put all the same things from previous games in it. It was more fresh and they wanted to know players reaction to these things instead of boring us with the same thing over and over. When FFXII comes out, it may take the same experimental form that FFVIII gave us (especially the different battle system).
FFVIII has excellent graphics, a good ending, decent story, and great music. I would love to see a remake or sequal (movie?) for it though it may be difficult.
Agreed. FFVII was decent, but FFVIII was what got me hooked on Final Fantasy.Quote:

my friend absolutely hates it, but he probably doesnt have the mental capacity to understand the junction system:D (or how awesome it is!)
go VIII!
I believe FF8 came out before along came polly. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, though.
FFVIII was only the 3rd most popular FF game, behind FFX and FFVII. So in other words FFVIII SHOULD be next in line for a few spin off titles, but it won't get them, because people are idiots and would rather get ports of old FF games for the rest of their lives...Quote:
