| Skaplan's Full Review: Final Fantasy VIII for PlayStation 1 |
The simplest way to put it is that I am addicted to this game.
From the opening credits to the end title this game is great. There are tons of side quests you can take as well as a long and great main story line. There is also a good mix of characters that will make you laugh and keep you intrigued throughout the game.
There are some parts that may bore you...a few of the side quests are quite long and there are no rewards until the end of them...as well as having to fight a lot of random battles against monsters that are pointless to fight..
For the most part, you will be stuck on this game...you can play cards games during the game which I think is a great addition to past FF games. There are new creatures that battle along side you called guardian forces that are really cool...The best I think...is Diablos who looks cool and looks tough and is fun to watch.
One thing you have to be careful is that there are a lot of hidden side quests...make sure you look and explore everywhere...even the middle of the oceans otherwise you will miss a lot of extra stuff that will help you in certain VERY hard battles.
Just remember that FF8 is supposed to be fun and there are a lot of places to explore...and try not to get addicted to it like me.
