Oh my---WOW. PS2 Version of VIII was planned

**Fantasy_Dragon** · 03-12-2006, 08:43 AM

Go to the very bottom of this page to see some BEAUTIFUL screenshots on how VIII would look on PS2. The site said that this was planned, but I'm not sure if that's correct or if it was just to show off the PS2 capabilities. Either way: WOW.

It was just to show off the capabilities of the PS2.

And they were pretty much right too. I would say those aren't too far off what the PS2 is capable of now. Seeing that, I believe the FF7 tech demo shows what the PS3 will be like without exaggerating it.

Either way, the screenshots are awesome.

I agree. Hopefully the target rendering on the PS3 won't be as far off as the 360.

There was also a tech demo based on the ballroom dance scene.

I've never seen it, just heard that it exists somewhere.

I hope so. That would be amazing.

theyre amazing, it just strenghtens my opinion of that a ff8 remake should be made, i love it.

Yeah, they did this with 7 too. They both look great on PS2. They showed both demos on a show called XPlay.

The demo referred to at the start of this thread IS the ballroom dance scene. You can see it at the page linked to there.

I mean there was an actual video showing it. Not just pictures.

Just based off the screen-shots of the tech demo, I think the PS1 version looked better. The PS2 shots looked really liney with funky colors. I think I'll go watch the tech demo like someone just mentioned anyway, though.

I noticed more details on Squall's SeeD uniform, but not alot different. (They look kinda sloppy.) I thought they were going to be FMV quality...

WOW! That's the greatest thing I've ever seen:

OOPS! My image for this link is no longer here -- Photobucket.

I've NEVER seen that before.
