I don't think it was cheesy because I liked what they did with the final boss and with Vivi a lot, however I don't want to spoil anything here.

Also if you like amazing ending an amazing one occurs at the end of FFVIII, it's one of the longest (probably longest in an FF), and in my opinion the most beautiful as well as having a wonderful feel for every one of the characters. The gameplay to that is a little confusing to some though, it's more of a love or hate game then FFIX which is more consistently liked, and is loved less.

Another great ending (imo) is the one at the end of Shadow Hearts: Covenant (you don't need to play the prequel to understand it). Also being able to watch all the wonderful scenes again after beating it is great. I'll stop boosting it now...
