  • This came out when i was 17 and had me and all my friends playing it for years. I still have my saved go with over 500 clocked on it :)

  • I was 8 when this came out, and I just turned 22... where HAS the time gone? I still remember this game in so much detail, probably because I played it about 6 times. :P

  • ooooooow!! :')

    Such a lot of memories brings me this song! very happy moments..

  • A job well done, keeping the memory of such a great game alive!... I'd play this game, and as much stress it may have given sometimes, it gave back just as much pleasure... By disc 3 when Rinoa comes through the steam into your arms; the most beautiful moment in gaming for me ;) Really taught me what love and friendship was about.

  • ‎:')

  • Im 26 now i was 13 then,so its literaly been a lifetime since then...

  • Hard to believe that it will be 13 years since this came out next september,9/9/99,i remember that day so clearly,the first time i saw the opening fight i think i pissed myself a little lol....I miss my childhood....

  • I bought this game on my PS3. I missed it so much and I can't help but hate the graphics, but its the story and the romance that I loved the most. I love Squall so much, he's probably THE most good looking main character from any FF game.

  • i have memories of this song

  • I HAD THE BEST CHILDHOOD BECAUSE OF THIS

  • Crying after listening this...

    First time, I was 10

    Now I'm 21, still have a same feeling.

    FF8 stole childhold...

  • this and "small two of pieces" from Xenogears are two of my favourite Squaresoft soundtrack ever....FFVIII and Xenogears, besides FFVII are my favourites RPG too....I'm fortunate enough to be able to finished the games, the good ol' time....:)

  • :D, Nobuo Uematsu, this comment is going out to you.

  • this game and song will always hold a place in my heart life was so much easier when all i cared about was finishing school to come home turn my ps1 on and play this game...

    i wish i could turn back time :(

    best game ever............... xxxxx

  • Time passes and people dissappear, but FF8 stays untouched by it... One memory that lasts - forever! Greetings to all of you that share the same feeling :)

  • thumbs up if you still listen to this song in 2012 :D

  • sims!

  • @keynoism I will be getting 8 as well as 7 for the PSP whenever I get it as. I have only played 1 and 2 and that is because their are on a mobile device.

  • @rarityisnotamule squall is a better loner because he chooses to be alone where as cloud hates being alone but he doesn't know anything else, tifa wasn't his friend when he child so even at a young age he was alone. Also I think the reason 7 is more popular is because of cloud rather then the gameplay, graphics or storyline.

  • @TheMischievousbull Honestly, I don't know why VII is more popular. All of my friends who were obsessed with VII decided VIII was better when I finally forced them to play it. I'd say you're right that Sephiroth and Cloud caught everyone's attention. Plus Vincent. And now that they're bringing out more and more FFVII franchises it's gaining undeserved popularity over all the other Final Fantasy's.... for the WRONG type of game. I just want the old FF style back ='(

  • 5:14 - My FAVORITE scene of Squall. ALWAYS~ <3

  • @smartanimegirl My favorite scene is when Squall saves Rinoa. I always die when I see this scene.

  • @Sparfregundo Well, I meant just a Squall scene himself.

    For me, for the both of them, their first dance.

  • Hmm... Wedding song? Not a bad idea...

  • FF VIII was and is the best FF that has been made ^_^

  • I love 1:52

  • For me FF VIII is the best game of all time..i think this song is very melancolic and dramatic

  • As every Playstation Final Fantasy, this game is a masterpiece.

    I'm playing again these days, and i'm falling back 8years in past, when i first played it.

  • i dont see why 7 is more popular. im about half-way through disc one in both. Squall is the better loner guy, the battle/upgrade system is more interesting in 8 and the plot makes sense(i hear 7's plot is convoluted as fck)

  • @rarityisnotamule VII's plot is messed up..... but it's actually pretty awesome once you get your head round it. I prefer VIII, but VII's well worth playing. IX too.... but not so much.

  • This video was made by me with Windows Movie Maker on windows XP. Funny to see it here. =:0) Check my other video.

  • @XGuarden oh really, i watched this when i was young, in vietnam

  • ... Spoony. :P

  • Even tho this was the easiest ff in the series. I still love playing it and its still the best one. Till this day this is the only ff i own. I hope they remake this.

  • I would probably punch my tv in out of pure excitement if it was remade.

  • i wonder if she listen's to this same song as i do

  • I want to dance to this at my wedding :) Cheesy i know but i just love it <3

  • shall i be the one for you

  • Man this song is once again undisputed proof of the infinite nature of Nobuo Uematsus creative mind.

  • may mild l.

  • i still love this game now!! FF-VIII the best game forever..

  • 10 years have passed but still i love this game....and i already once more using emulator.... and still having fun... best game ever.... i hope they recreate this game and make it more graphically advance for this generation gamer

  • i got amazing ffviii wallpaper on my channell no game as emotional as this maybe 7 aswell

  • You wouldnt think this is PS1 would you! Beautiful Song!

  • I have to be honest, when this came out, I thought squall was like the biggest jerk in FF history (close call with CLoud) but after witnessing the new FF games, this game is now on my top 5 best ff games, 6 being top 1

  • Square is dead since Enix :(

    Byebye FFs :(

  • 不論在何時唱著我的歌 在舞台上也好,孤獨一個人也好 不管什麼時候說著我的話 一直希望能夠讓你聽見 望著你對我的笑容 不知道這是真實還是幻想 你總是一如往日的出現在角落 在這狹小的小酒吧 昨夜我為你守候了一晚 一遍一遍唱著你我的歌曲 昨晚我真的為了你而在這裡嗎? 也許是,也許不是 我好喜歡你的一切 你怎麼能夠用如此羞澀的眼神望著我 喔!你曾知道嗎? 我的心早就屬於你 親愛的,所以你就在那裡 讓我好好的看著你 就當你從不受傷 就當你從不跌倒 讓我成為你的一部份,好嗎? 誰溫柔但是卻傷了你呢? 如果為了挫折就皺眉的話 我會認為你是沒有夢想的人 所以,讓我奔向你 像我所想像的去接近你 盡量的靠近我 讓我去感受你快速的心跳 留在那裡,當我低語時 我是如此愛你用溫柔的的眼神看著我 你是否明瞭 我的心早就屬於你 親愛的,跟我分享你的所有 與你一起分享足夠的愛 當你心情不好時,我會和你一同分擔 或不管什麼痛苦,我與你承擔 要如何才能讓你知道 華麗的外表和動人的聲音都不夠形容我 只管放心的到我身邊 你會明瞭這不只是一場夢 
  • @mei5330 This song translated lyrics of this song in Japanese.

    Translating it back with Google butchered it.

  • When this game came out I was only 10 and barely understood English. It took me a year to finish the first disc. Certainly brings back memories.

  • Wow sweet graphics! Yea kid....this game came out over 10 years ago....yea.

  • @YoungGun66 well this games cutscenes have alot of detail and curves.

  • Its 2011 and we don't have graphics like this.

  • @redfoxbennaton id rather have graphics like this than ff13's bland story.

  • @iamthewickedchild Yeah, I never got the story either. Or this ones either.What is the plot of it anyway? Still graphics don't matter.

  • SE remade ff5 and 6 as anthology. 1 and 2 as origins. hope they remade 7 and 8. I wonder what would it be called. Final Fantasy Reformation? I miss the old squaresoft developers in making a wonderful story line of love and romance.

  • For many years, my felling has never changed.

    A love song which always warms my heart, chokes me up.

  • *sigh* I miss you squaresoft.

  • @catsnpancakes yeah enix totally fking ruined everything.

  • @catsnpancakes February 11, 1999. A day that I will remember for the rest of my life.

  • @2349DF yup yup, me too. ff8 and suikoden 2 hehe both in 1999

  • Don't you wish you could forget things on purpose, just to do them again..

  • bestial que grandes recuerdos!

  • I feel nostalgic x999... i wish i could forget the entire game so i could play it over again for the first time...

  • let's appreciate all the good aspects of each final fantasy game and not bash. this music is wonderful

  • Only the best game for the ps1 ff7 can go to hell.

  • @TheSquallLeonheart Uu=====D~~~~ D:

  • they just cant make more games like this one......i feal nostalgic :( i miss it

  • i love Faye Wong

  • Comment removed

  • Squall's smile...

  • my very first RPG game.. damn Rinoa is my kinda girl. too bad.. IFRIT is the first GF that you'll ever had in the game.. loooolz....

  • @obli007 wasnt it shiva and quetzacolt first?ifrit is the third..lol

  • @obli007 no its quetzicotalt and shiva then ifrit tho ifrit is the first summon you fight ^^

  • @obli007 wrong already. shiva and quezacotl are the first gfs. but noobs wouldnt know :) lol

  • Every fan who commented on this video needs to go see the Spoony One's review of the game.

  • @harry426 yeah!!! fucking troll him!

  • @Hayro3500 Hum, I think Spoony's actually right. This game looks incredibly stupid and boring.

  • @harry426 hehehe i tought that could be the case, i just want someone to troll him

  • @Hayro3500 why?

  • haha

    

  • I loved this game.....It was the first RPG that had a dope love story that I actually loved playing through. This song reminds me of my earlier years....I think i was in 8th grade when I played this....I'm about to buy is on my psp go...and re live the early years of my life all over again.

  • such a great FF game...and such a beautiful song...Love iT <3

  • i never played ff8 but this is beautiful

  • que gran juego hace mil años que no veia las cinematicas de el ^^

  • Why does this video only have 2 million views, argg everyone work hard to make it higher!!

  • 203 people are just souless childhoodless little miserable creatures.

  • Why do you still make me cry after all these years? T^T I miss this game so much.

  • Michelle Phan sent me here....

  • When I first saw the graphics, the soundtrack and played it for the first 10 minutes, my thoughts were : Yes, This will be the first game I finish...and it was. The Only RPG I have ever finished within 4 days of starting to play it. That's how much I love it.

  • They don't need a remake. THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER. They don't need a remake to make it better. How can you make an 10/10 game better?!

    Love.This.Game!

  • @AIndoria We could use a HD widescreen version? Or the game would look out of proportion on a widescreen TV?

  • @somebodyishere Ah...yeah, they'd have to recreate most of the cutscenes for HD, which I'd not appreciate. They are one of the most beautiful things in FFVIII.

  • epic!

  • Haha.. again this music is soooo good and emotional I thought these

    "peolple" are real lol.

  • i miss the old final fantasy feeling ^^" they used to release a game pretty much once a year, but now it takes an eternity and they just... don't have the adventurous feeling any longer, no more beautiful love stories and tales

  • @gladkaka Yeah...I know what you mean. The old Final Fantasy games are definitely better. They've got more feelings in them. <3

  • wahhhhhh *wT my fav song from FF series x') asdas <3 <3 <3 reminds me of lots of things... 

  • Best love story in the FF series. The music is also well composed. I wish they would do a remake with better graphic and a longer story line. Wishful thinking on my part lol

  • @U12casanova I agree.. hopefully square enix would see the light like bahamut did. :p

  • @U12casanova yeah i really wish they could continue this story. the best ff ever. reminds me when i was in my primary school

  • @U12casanova

    i hope so .. =)

  • @U12casanova lol... yeah... it was a very good game... i'd like to see that done for FFVII instead though... this one felt a bit like a soap opera and was way too easy... but it was great.... and the music is amazing...

  • @U12casanova Better graphics, voices, etc... it just wouldnt be it anymore....

  • @sadailinikada86 Ah, finally another sane person ^^

    I love the Masterpiece that FF VIII is, it's music, story, everything and till today Squall is my absolute favorite main char of all time. But it was made around 1999 and it was PERFECT for it's time. A remake now would be forced and wouldn't fit in todays world.

    If you're a true fan of FF VIII you should hope it will stay an untouched masterpiece forever. So we can cherish the memories forever :)

  • @Justforvisit Well said my friend! Cherish the memories forever, and replay it from time to time :D

    Good taste in gaming btw...

  • @Justforvisit  AMEN!!!

  • @Justforvisit A remake of this game have alot of potential. If you look at the facts, this game's story is a love story.

    So don't come here and tell me better grapichs, better sound, and voice acting would fit not in todays world. If anything, the games today lack the theme of love and I think a FF8 remake would be a fresh breath of air for a new audience and a nostalgic look back for us FF veterans.

    The story of FF8 with good voice acting and a better script would be, to say it mildly. Amazing.

  • @mamba5445 Look at what kingdom hearts did. Simply by giving Vivi from FFIX a voice, they ruined his character hugely for me. I say the game's perfect as it is. Rather than re-making games, giving a chance of ruining them, we should be pushing that they take these games as inspiration. Don't get me wrong, XIII is a huge improvement on X-2 or XII, but it's no VII, VIII or IX.

  • @Justforvisit I think that spoony would disagree with us on FFVIII. But I love it. It was the reason I got a PS1.

  • @Justforvisit FFX was also pretty good =)

  • @Justforvisit Then again, the modern FF games are really going down hill. XIII & XIII-2 have been disappoints to fans abroad story wise. Square Enix is another Japanese developer being hit hard by the conversion from Japanese games to NA games. This change isn't quite understood, but if the FF games were remade from 7 on up, they could potentially be a success. If ppl can get to rexperience or experience the magic then FF could come back up. Otherwise be swallowed by Microsoft.

  • @U12casanova maybe on it's 20th anniversary. :)

  • @U12casanova or even a sequal.

  • @shaq786 Here here!

  • Interesting song. Hope I beat this game. Been 8 yrs and still having past 3rd disk. Interesting huh. Even with gameshark. ;)

  • @darkpheng Let me guess... Raijin and Fujin?

  • Love

  • i just love the flute part at 2:45 ^^ so pretty

  • best game and best song!

  • one word to describe it: Perfect!

  • I don't walk in the rain because i can catch cold.

  • Such a satisfying ending this game has.

  • The scene @1.52 when the lady is hanging by a thread on the cliff and the man

    coming help her is a very original and beautiful scene.

  • @universexf6 Rinoa and Squall

  • why does music suck now?!?!

  • I love this game! The love of Squall and Rinoa seemed so real, it awoke a part od me that I didn't know... A romantic side! Now what I really wish with all my heart and my soul is to find my true love. To be alone is... cruel. It's so cruel... it hurts.

  • Best game song ever!

  • @IcySoul24 no . .it's suteki da ne sory.

  • Best game song ever!

  • i know this probably sounds pathetic, but Squall Leonhart was my first ever crush :O

  • @dreamtowngirl me too lol

  • @dreamtowngirl wait nvm...it wasnt squall. i liked seifer instead!

  • Played CoD 6 for 30 minutes, got bored, brought out the Ps1, played FF VIII for the whole day, wanted more. I love this game so much. It's my favourite out of the series, with X coming a close second. They just don't make 'em like they used to...

  • Sine i played FFVIII and FVII, my life changed. REALLY

  • did rinoa and squall end up together? anyone??

  • @taffyboyish I guess so since they kissed at the end of the game. ^.^

  • @4evaSoshi thank you :)

  • God, I love this song. It's just so beautiful.

  • this was one of my fave games oh how i rember i had an English copy 3 months before the rest lol was the best three months of bragging i ever had lol

  • never really got into 7. but 8 holy crap man i loved it. story game play and the feel....just an all time great

  • everything start to crumble since squaresoft bought enix.. No more epic FF's like 7,8,9.

  • Kektorable You only think ff7 is better because they made it a Series!! But if ff8 is compared to very very first ff7 it was superior in both story, gameplay and Graphics.. just think about that before you go blabbering around like a mouthfuck of complains..

  • lovin this fucking game!

  • FF7 is much better !!!!!

  • @Hektorable

    Stirring up a shitstorm, I see?

  • Dirge of Ceberus was all right just too quick of a game for me :)

  • This song reminds me of my true love...though we broke up years ago...i need to not listen to this anymore.

  • เพลงนี้ ยังกินใจอยู่~ ^ ~

  • i listen many time but not boring. It's good song.

  • @shotoku64 good lord you missed out during childhood. bless you.

  • @shotoku64 on another note, the song was originally by Faye Wong, who was chinese cantonese. Therefore, her grammar was much more excusable than yours.

  • @shotoku64 0/10

  • @shotoku64 Shit lord. This game rules.

  • @shotoku64 This game came out when you were probably not even thought of. therefore, be gone fat scrub.

  • @shotoku64 stop raging on the internet cuz you're a sad lonely virgin :) begone troll

  • TIME COMPRESSOR !!! BATTERYS !!!!!!!

  • This song makes me feel nostalgic! 8->

  • i've always enjoyed this song

  • I've played this game through many times and only noticed when watching this vid that Rinoa's top had wings on the back.

  • Faye Wong is a famous singer in that hong kong.

  • @flowewritharoma must be really famous, "I'm more than the dress and the voice..."

  • Someone dedicates this song to me. And now I'm in love with this song. :)) Very relaxing! Full of emotions.

  • i already have downloaded it:D:D:D best game ever it makes my ps3 games rusty:P

    

  • i already have downloaded it:D:D:D best game ever

    

  • Even though I hate this game, I like this song at least.

  • REMAKE FFVIII =)

  • @zrehsoj69 for ps3 :D
