    Are you serious? I played Orcarina of Time and couldn't tell what the hell I was looking at 90% of the time because the graphics were so undistigushable. o_O Plus the game just plain sucked.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    The game taught me:
    -Don't judge someone from their appearence a.k.a. don't trust politicians
    -You'll find love in the place you'll least expect it (in a school? I would have never thought of that)
    -Everything and everyone has a fate and a reason to live
    -It made me realise that I find annoying people cute
    -Everything, everyone and random periods of time may all be connected somehow
    -Love makes the world go round

    It taught me that guys that look sexy, deep and mysterious... are not always not what they appear. They are sometimes sexy, deep, mysterious and emotionally constipated.

    Agrees with post above (I don't feel like quoting).

    Hmm..well, i believe FF as a whole has made me a more diverse person.

    But, as for FF8, i didnt apperciate that game when it first came out. It took 4 years and a couple of good fanfiction to get me to really apperciate that game. FF8 can so easily be turned into good fanfiction. The setting is just so open that you can do that. Cause its like at the end of the game, they are what they started off as, A bunch of kids, in a school of mercinaries that are probably still way in over their heads. And how many teenagers arent in way over their heads like all the time? So true to life.

    Oh god, where do people get off saying things like this.

    Back on Topic, FF8 was my first FF game, it removed my perception of life. Since then:
    1. I can no longer remember the names of my family members
    2. I can no longer remember the names of my friends
    3. I consider my greatest achievement finishing 7,8,9,10,10-2 in a row without sleeping or stopping
    4. I consider Renzokuken a great way to solve the worlds problems
    5. I do remember that i did something in '98
    6. Whatever country i'm in i still believe the Currency is GIL

    It made me see that good graphics is not what makes a good game. You actually need a storyline that makes sense unlike FFVIII and a half decent battle system where your main aim isn't to steal magic from hard working monsters who have it as a natural ability.

    It really gets to me now when Squall risks his life to save Rinoa in space and the words he says; 'Sis, help me! I never felt this way before!' But when I first played this game like 5 years ago, back then I didn't appreciate this game. I was prolly the first person to buy ff8 in pc version and I expected so much more because FF7 really was a good game. I hated Squall cuz he only pretended to be strong. He hung on to 'dead' Rinoa like she's the only thing to look forward in his life. He might as well wept like a baby. I still can remember how sick he had made me. But now I can appreciate this game whole lot better. Squall makes me realize those innocent feelings I once had toward my first love. Although I still believe FF7 is a better game, I wouldn't say FF8 is a dissapointment.
