FF8's Characters: Love some, Leave some

by QueenLyssa , Jun 17 '00
Pros: Less tragedy, more comedy
Cons: A couple of characters that stunk
Final Fantasy 8 marks many changes in the Final Fantasy series, but one thing they do keep is the depth and variety of characters. Some are among Squaresoft's all time greats, some are livable and forgettable, some you really wish you could forget. Pans...

Squaresoft Continues to Amaze

by Relansa , Jun 16 '00
Pros: Graphics, Quistis, Irvine, Vicks, Wedge, The Plot (Which is still good even if it's not as complex as FF6 or 7)
Cons: *Zell*, Doesn't quite have the same detail of story as the other FFs but still good.
Back when I was in high school and just finished playing FF6 I asked myself internally if we'd ever see computer graphics so detailed that it would be hard to tell the difference between the CG and a filmed person. With the comming of FF8 my question...

Shattering Barriers

by willschmeits , Jun 16 '00
Pros: Magnificent cinimas, inventive magic and limit break usage, controls are fabulous.
Cons: Plot a little difficult to follow, monsters are mundane, music for battles monotonous.
The FF series strikes gold again as another video game deity will live on in the minds and hearts of all. I bought this game expecting the best (having bought FFVII). And, for the most part, I was not disappointed. First of all the story line draws you...

Final Fantasy Series Back on Track, But Monsters are Broke

by grouched , Jun 16 '00
Pros: Looks great, tastes great, feels great. Fixes problems from Final Fantasy VII. It has the Final Fantasy name.
Cons: Could be better. Lack of interactivity in the environment. Monetary system whacked. Can't level-up like ya used to.
Final Fantasy. The name itself conjures up emotions for me. I’ve devoted weeks of my life to games that contain that name. Days would pass where I’d forget to eat; I’d shun sleep and would only leave my dark recesses (oh so dark, save that eternal...

Can they possibly top this?

by QueenLyssa , Jun 15 '00
Pros: Simply a superior game, the best of the Final Fantasy series in every aspect
Cons: Slightly complicated game system with many changes from past Final Fantasy games
Squaresoft had an incredible hit with Final Fantasy VII and has somehow managed to surpass it with the latest installment, Final Fantasy VIII. Having had the game since its US release and played it multiple times, I can assure you that Final Fantasy VIII...

Best Game I've Played

by Celesj , Jun 15 '00
Pros: Excellent game, great music/sound/story
Cons: None
I'm a lifelong fan of the Final Fantasy series, so this opinion may be slightly biased, but I'd have to say that this is one of the best games ever made. The Graphics are Amazing, the Sound is Superb, and Story-line is Captivating.

From the...

Are You A Cynic? Ah, It'll Touch Your Heart, Anyway.

by Daystorm , Jun 12 '00
Pros: Beautiful CG scenes, Rinoa, Intricately written story.
Cons: Okay, so some of those scenes are a bit unbelievable. How far away is that moon??
You know how long I've been waiting to review this game?

Two months.

You know why?

I can't stand not finding all the secrets and things to get in a game.

Amongst other things.

I borrowed Final...

The Greatest There Is

by otabitha , Jun 12 '00
Pros: Great graphics and cinematics.
Cons: Takes too long to beat.
Final Fantasy 8 is the best game I have ever played on Playstation. I like this game because it is not just any other ordinary game. Final Fantasy 8 is in the form of a movie. There are many cinematic scenes in it that look like you are watching a movie....

Final Foolery 8

by carrotslove , Jun 10 '00
Pros: Graphics, nice FMV sequences
Cons: TOO MUCH FMV SEQUENCES, terrible battle modes, left me with that empty feeling after playing it.
Will Squall finally defeat his bitter rival Seifer? Does Rinoa hold the key to Squall’s heart? Will you have the patience and stamina to play long enough to find out? All these questions and so much more poured through my head while playing the joke...

Everyone has their bad games

by FFaNtAsY84 , Jun 10 '00
Pros: Great Graphics, The Card Game
Cons: Dull Story, Bad Magic System, Too Short
Wow I couldn't believe this game was one of the Final Fantasy series when I played it. All the hype about it made me buy it but after playing it for an hour I was bored out of my mind. The story was bland, the magic system drove me crazy and in battles...

Great Game, For the First 100 Hours

by Sk8ingBA , Jun 10 '00
Pros: Story line
Cons: Too much of the same thing.
I bought this game because I loved FFVII. FFVIII is much different, what with all the GF's and Junctioning. It's an easy game to get used to, which can be a good thing, but sometimes, you just get too used to it. I like the story line and I like...

Squaresoft hits hard

by 4leggedchicken , Jun 08 '00
Pros: graphics, storyline,and innovation
Cons: over emphasis on drawing magic and using GF
Squaresoft has quiet a reputation to live up to with such great games like Parasite Eve, Bushido Blade, and of course the Final Fantasy series. Keeping that very reputation in mind does Squaresoft live up to it again? Although it took the folks at Square...

Excellent, great graphics

by abidiar , Jun 08 '00
Pros: great graphics great story line
Cons: too many monsters
The FMV sequences in this game make playstation look like more than a 32 bit system. The graphics are by far the best I've seen on an RPG, and I have been playing RPG's for a long time. The story line is brilliant, this game is a masterpiece. You, are...

The Best RPG

by Cody-X , Jun 08 '00
Pros: The best CG clips, gameplay, and music in an RPG.
Cons: None.
Final Fantasy VIII is without a doubt the best RPG ever created. Square Soft always out do themselves when they come out with a new Final Fantasy game. I will admit that the story in this game wasn't outstanding, there really wasn't anything...

Pros: good game great story
Cons: It's nothing like FF7

Final Fantasy 8 is a good game better that most on the market, but it is no final fantasy 7.This game is fun and intreging but it does have it's flaws.First of all the graphics are very sweet and the game play is awesome,the story is...
