I extracted (not recorded!) ALL video files from the game folder of the PC version... luckily they had names like 001, 002,... 025, 026 and were saved in the correct order. So sorry to belie you: All cutscenes are in the right order, but some are "alternative" (like the balamb garden exploding if you fail or not if you succeed). Could have left them out but then we would have missing scenes! But feel free to name missing video files.
12:10 its Obama muhahahaha I shall pass SOPA, PIPA, and the NDAA. Muhahahah YES YES! Who ever should try to stop me will be labeled a terrorist and put to death. MUHAHAHA!
Thank you so much for the compilation!! I've never had the chance to play most of the FF games, so this + reading a good synopsis sure helped get me up to speed >w<
i hate the gameplay of every ff. it was all about the story. i used to work through the gaming parts to see whats comin next. now i cant seem to do it anymore. i tried with ff8 but gave up after 7h. glad to see this video here though.
What happened to the girl that the guy proposed to out in the meadow/field at night? Did she die because I saw him looking at a grave? How did she die? Who was the other girl that was waving to the guy when he was looking at the grave site? Was that the girl he proposed to or is that a completely different girl?
Both Final Fantasy VII and VIII made huge impacts on my life. I think they should remake both. I'll always prefer VIII though. Not because it's a better game (they are both equally stunning), but because it's the first one I played, and because I was going through hard times while playing it, so I saw a lot of my own personality in Squall. I guess I felt like there was a connection between his life and my own... it's good to see that he is finally happy, I'm still waiting for MY happy ending...
@ProcreatingSorg They do have insanely deep moral stories in the plots of 7 and 8. The Sephiroth/Cloud/Zach paradox of FF7 can't ever be touched, it's a masterpiece of a plot. But I feel ya man, playing those games through shaped a lot of the who I am today.
41:25-43:17 The video is missing. The audio is still there tho. It's the scene where Squall is wandering along in time compression after defeating Ultimecia.
Correct: The video is missing because there is no video. :-P
This part is rendered with ingame graphics while the videoclip goes on with a black screen. Sounds weird, but there really exists a very long video clip for the epilogue, containing a small scene where the music continues but you only see a black screen. Could have recorded the ingame graphics though.... ;-)
ah this brought back great memories. The cutscene graphics were totally ahead of their time in terms of quality and i remember being really impressed by them.
Can you believe we were all "wow" at FFVIII video quality years ago... although it can't compare to PS3 now, but it was still one of my most favorite game, ever!
I honestly didnt know it had an hour worth of footage. AND I love how all these cutscenes are so well produced together with no breaks. Outstanding its like watching a movie.
Ah sorry, I listed only those songs I added on my own initiative. Liberi Fatali is an inherent part of the videoclip, as well as the track of the epilogue. :)
The very last scene where you see Squall smile for the first time and Rinoa looking out the night sky and then they kiss, it always makes me emotional. That's what pure love and beauty is all about. Seriously Final Fantasy VIII made my life!
@danmanji hey thanks for uploading this it was cool to see all these again i actually just started playing it again just couldnt wait to see the end and ended up watching your video thanks again
@SSHGL my favorite too dude this one is awesome i loved everything about it the card game was awesome too i got em all eventually i just started playing this again on my PSX
hey, the video is good but i would rather it to be more alike the game, there's some scenes that are not in the correct way, missing parts and the music is quite different than it is in the real game.though, i like it xoxo
I extracted ALL video files of the PC version... luckily they had names like 001, 002,... 025, 026 and were saved in the correct order. So sorry to belie you: All cutscenes are in the right order, but some are "alternative" (like the balamb garden exploding if you fail or not if you succeed). Could have left them out but then we would have missing scenes!
Music: Ingame you only have background world music during the clips or no music at all -> would have been boring this way.
I think maybe they meant you were missing the non-cgi-ish scenes that connected to the cgi scenes which I would have liked to see to but I wasn't going to complain
@danmanji actually, no, they are out of order, for example, First ragnarok attack cutscene- luanching adel- second ragnarok attack scene? followed by monsterfall?(which happened earlier)
@angelyzz1982 Yeah but I bought it on the playstation store on ps3. they have a load of ps1 games there! super cheap too. I bought ff7 and ff8 for like 10 bucks.
@amt9334 I bought the Playstation disc set for it on Amazon for $20 brand new. I've always preferred having a disc rather than just a downloaded copy.
@amt9334 If you have a PS3 go to the PS Network an it should be on PS1 Classics for $9.99 if your in America at least. Just don't download it to your PSP or throughout the entire game you'll have major glitching and lagging problems, i advise you not to unless you homebrew your firmware and upgrade your PoPs than maybe.
Man this game had everything in it! Love story, war, guns, sword, ships, rivalry, magic, space travel, summons, monsters, time travel, mythology, and most of all a damn great storyline to tie all of these together!
My favorite scene: 33:43 where Rinoa floats in space. I had the idea to use a small piece of "compression of the time" (played when you head to Artemisias Castle) and repeat it a few times. And I think it surprisingly fits! :)
So, you ripped all that from PC version with what? Dragon ripper? Wanna do this myself.
