I actually came onto this forum to get a bit of help with FFVIII as I couldn't beat GF Cactuar. Carl the Llama was happy to oblige and I went on to finish it the first month I was here.

I'd started the game a couple of times previously but it didn't hook me quite the way that FFVII had. Third time round though I really got into it and was determined to get to the end. I love Triple Triad! I didn't use a guide but I got lots of tips from the FFVIII forum on here. I've seen people criticise the storyline which I can understand in parts but it's nowhere near as bad as certain people make out.

I thought it was an awesome game.
