    Only from an importer or someone that sells Japanese products as they were only formally released in Japan.

    It's good to know though that the reason they were never given wider release was because of their tendency to be defective.

    Man, the PC version of Chocobo world was written horribly, if your computer isn't hyperthreaded it takes 100% cpu .
    There are 10 kinds of people. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

    to put it bluntly... and i don't mean to offend anyone who likes the game, mind you... it's utterly addictive in a mindless sort of way.

    lol...wish i could play it..is is like chocobo hot and cold and are you like on a differnt map..is it big???^_^
    You know you're obsessed with FF when...:laughing:
    1) You yell at the characters. i.e "Cloud, what the heck do you think you're doing?!"
    2) You praise the characters and/or tell them you love them. i.e "Oh yeah, Squall!"or"Nice save Tidus!"
    3)You start to dress/talk/act like the characters and/or pick up their habits i.e saying ...'whatever' half the time,randomly pointing your finger in the air when you talk to someone,ect
    4) You talk about the characters as if you know them. i.e "Oh yeah, I think Cloud and Tifa should get together."or" Seifer such a big jerk!”
    5) When you're playing FF and someone asks what you're doing you reply "saving the planet".
    6) You mistakenly refer pounds/dollars/euros as Gil afew times.
    7) When you grow up you want to be a -SeeD/ Shinra Soldier/ Galbadian Soldier/ member of SOLDIER/ Sorceress/ Choco Sage/ Garden Master/President of Shinra Inc./ Turk/ Scientist/Summoner/Mage/White Mage/Sephiroth
    8) You wondered (or wished) one (or more) of the following:
    --You knew did know (and /or)knew someone as cute as Squall/Cloud/Irvine/Sephiroth/Vincent/Tidus ect,Tifa/Aerith/Yuffie/Rikku/Yuna/Rinoa/Selphie ect
    -You could go to Garden instead of school
    -You could play Blitzball in PE
    -You could drive the Ragnarok/Highwind
    - Chocobos roamed the forests near your house.
    -You wish you could use magic/materia/GF's/summons/Materia
    -You had a limit break

    You wander about aimlessly, get into random fight, automatically fights them, repeat. It sucks. I only did it for neat items.

    Yeah, it's a pocketstation game. Pocketstation games are basically the equivalent of graphing calculator games, except that playing them can unlock stuff on the playstation game. It's really fortunate that this game was not more integral to FFVIII, because as it says in the manual, they didn't bother to wait for Sony to release the pocketstation in America.

    can someone tell me how small the Pocket Station is? i just wanna know. from my guess, it think it might be the size of those GigaPet handhelds, but i could be wrong.

    I have a pocketstation. It's really nice to get the rare items from it. My question pertains to the chocobo attacks. I have heard for any given fight after level 50, there is a 4/512 chance of running into an upgrade. I played this game for 20 hours after getting the first upgrade and never ran into the second. Has anyone gotten all 3 upgrades?
