    Default Nuclear War?

    Could FFVIII be about nuclear war?

    Consider this picture of of the moon.



    Now consider this codec scene from Metal Gear Solid.



    Could Konami and Square be sending a message? The sky around the moon is sorta the same color as the Codec portraits. Think about if the sky around the moon is the same color of the Codec portraits in Metal Gear Solid and MGS is about stopping people from launching a nuclear weapon, and nuclear weapons are real, think about it for a second.

    I have another theory coming soon, this is the most I've ever posted in FFVIII, and I don't even like the game that much, it's one of few Final Fantasy games I didn't replay really.

    Another thing to notice, you press the Action button and to do actions in Metal Gear Solid, FFVIII has an Action button too!

    in a way, those waves after the boats look like ladders too. Maybe Snake is supposed to infiltrate the boats?

    Hmm, I think you should go back to your favourite Final Fantasy board and create your own theories from there. Just a suggestion.

    This is his favourite final fantasy board! I think the theory is great!

    You're just narrow minded.

    I was thinking about just posting in FFIV & FFIX, and stop having fun here with this game but now that you fail to realize the point of my theory I think I'll have give more proof.

    So since the beginning of time, men have taken actions to do things. Metal Gear Solid you take actions to stop Liquid. Final Fantasy VIII, you take actions to stop Ultimecia.

    And undeniably both share the theme of time, for FFVIII has time compression, and MGS you have 18 hours time to stop the nuke according to near beginning the game.

    Perhaps I should try my F=E theory.

    Why didn't you use this one from this thread?

    they're only the same color if the color settings on your monitor/TV are messed up... considering i keep everything set to THX standards the sky around the moon is clearly a hazy blue, nowhere near the green of the codec portraits...

    See!? There is proof right there this game all about nuclear war and warheads. Look at the elements, Irvine used a sniper rifle in the game once, and there's Sniper Wolf in MGS that uses a sniper rifle too. And there's noticeably greenish colors in the sky in some of the FFVIII game. FFVIII and MGS both have long drawn out conversations that only 4% of the conversation tells you what you're supposed to do next. Interesting...

    You've said that you don't like VIII and yet you're making this?
    This clearly proves that you're just trolling.
