yeah i like 8's graphics better than 9's. but i didn't like the battle scene graphics they were too pixely...
8 for me wasn't hard at all to get into. i like rinoa and squall so i keep playing just to see when they're gonna get together. one thing that was stupid that i just played today was the whole orphanage thing. yeah, they all went to the same orphanage then they all ended up saving the world together. well i guess its possible cuz the worlds so damn small....but kinda corny if you ask me.
