Final Fantasy VIII is the only game of the series I am willing to put time and effort to do everything. When I reach scenes that have numerous outcomes depending on which party members you pick (eg the scene where Zell takes people into his bedroom for the first time) I used to save my game before and check out all the different scenarios.

Yeah, the reason why I joined this forum in the first place was so that I could meet other people who loved the game so much they did things crazier than I did

If you could win all the rare cards twice after refining them then I'd like to hear how you did it
