Pros: Excellent graphics, well designed characters Cons: New magic system is annoying
I must say that the reason that I'm disappointed with this game isn't because it doesn't have a great story line or graphics. It's because there are a lot of annoying elements added to this game that really drag it down. The most annoying is the...

Pros: Playing Environment Cons: Characters
Final Fantasy 8
This would be the best RPG that Square Soft has made in the last two years. Most of the other reviews that I have read gave this game the 5 stars, well the same for me.
The playing environment is great and...

Pros: Great graphics Cons: Limited gameplay
This game was one of the most highly anticipated of the year and as far as I am concerned one of the biggest disappointments. From the TV and magazine advertisements this game looked stunning and apparently had over 60 hours of gameplay. This turned out...

Pros: Good battle menu Cons: Controls on the confusing side
This is just not a cool game. I think its a bunch of c-r-a-p when you make 8 of the same game. Seven was OK but it took me 28 hours to beat. And no I don't suck. The GF's are a little confusing. Oops! Really confusing! That card game you play is...

Pros: Great Graphics Cons: Absolutely no replay value
This game is probably the worst of the Final Fantasy series. Even though it is a mediocre game it is not good compared to the others of the Final Fantasy Series. It started out good but there is no replay value at all. The ending CG movie also sucks...

Pros: addictive and time consuming Cons: card game hard at first, have to play a lot
Hey you people do you play RPG games on a regular basis or is this your first time. Don't worry they really help you in this one. They made this one so that you can always review what you forget on the way to the end of the game if you make...

Pros: Great graphics,good card game,interesting characters,easy battle system, and a good story. Cons: Can be slow at times, can be frustrating.
I first purchased this game after hearing so much about it. The publicity this game received was outstanding. But was it worth it? In my opinion, this is one which did deserve to get mounds of publicity. I find that there is always something...

Pros: Great gameplay, good story, nice magic system. Cons: Puzzles way to easy, i think a 12 year old can figure it out.
The reason why i bought this game was because it was made from squaresoft. I've heard from my friends that squaresoft makes awesome games, and that is why i bought Final Fantasy VIII. FF8 is pretty easy, there was about 2 parts where i got stuck on, but...

Pros: Visuals and storyline... somewhat... I guess. Cons: Uematsu-san's awful downfall in the music department, monotonous gameplay, awful character design and the sheer superficiality of it...
As cliche as my review title may be, it's true -- what is a game with excellent graphics without the gameplay to back it up?
Ok, so perhaps I should start from the beginning. Everyone knows the Final Fantasy name. Well, quite a few people do...

~Final Fantasy 8 takes role play gaming to a new level of game play. This game rocked when I played it for the first time. I am happy to say that I thought that Final Fantasy 8 was better than Final Fantasy 7. The graphics were similar but better I...

Pros: Great Graphics, great music, great story, many hours of fun Cons: earning levels in the end can be tedious, trying to figure out the mini-card game
Exceptional gaming at its finest. I love this game. Squaresoft's Final Fantasy VIII breaks the mold of conventional roleplaying games. The graphics are phenomenal, the music tantalizing, and a story fit for the movie industry.
I cannot...

Pros: "Groundbreaking" graphics, character intensive storyline Cons: Only character intensive storyline
Are you easily astounded by graphics? If you are buy this game. You will be amazed. It is the closest anyone will come to interactive backgrounds for a while. The largest problem lies with everything else. Maybe its just me, but I enjoy playing a...

Pros: Excellent graphics, story line, game-play, and music Cons: None!
When I played Final Fantasy VII, thought that was the best game to ever be released. Although it wasn't perfect, it far surpassed what other RPGs had to offer. It was hard to top and come up with a better story line and way of playing. Somehow, the...

Pros: Great Graphics Cons: A lot of dialog
I purchased this game because I heard good things about it. The graphics looked fantastic. Once I began playing, the first thing I saw was the introduction. It was like watching a movie. As I played on, the game's plot was great. This was one thing that...
