Quick question
This is final fantasy 8, why do the graphics suck soooooo much? I mean final fantasy 7 had much better graphics plus good movie but this isn't cutting it for me
@kazama195 I can only assume that you are referring to Final Fantasy VII - Crisis Core which, was on the PSP and made way after Final Fantasy VIII which, was on the PS1.
Well anyway, they certainly liked to release games on Xbox/GC/PS2 to make maximum profit, I liked the GC too it was fun, the GC is also really easy to work on compared to the PS2.
I mostly moved from SNES to Xbox, then eventually got PS2 and GC.
Still the PS2 sold like mad..........it has some treasures.
Of course not, FFX was the first game with voice acting, and you are not going to understand the story from a Final Fantasy game just from watching the CGI scenes.
it was the first time they ever did that, so it was pretty awesome, I remember I was like OMG DID A FMV JUST GO INTO NORMAL GAMEPLAY WITHOUT A LOADING SCREEN?!
Course it can be done much more easily this days...
Wow, I can`t say I am surprised though, my first video-game when I was a kid was a SNES, and for a very long time I didn`t know what Atari or NES were... tough stuff
i forget this part of the game, was it like a truce between galdabia and the sorceres? and why are the people from Galdabia clapping for Edea, didnt she just killed the president right before their eyes?
@TysGoesRawr For fuck´s sake, stop this whole "remake" thing!
I mean, next month there´s going to be people shouting & crying for a FF XIII remake! Then what? They´re going to record The Beatles´s whole discography again?
Square needs to find NEW ideas. Remakes? Fast food for the masses.
Stay focus, stay sharp, move forward. They (and we) must try to create something that doesn´t exist now. That´s a very basic idea, but one who got us this far...
( IMO) Yeah everything Final Fantasy was great until Squaresoft had to merge with Enix, which led to the main writer Suckaguchi leaving and the main Music directer Uematsu leaving. Which was right after X-2 then it seemed they made alot of bogus FF games:(
I love ths game, but for me, the best are Final Fantasy Crisis Core and FF7 xD I love Squall and Riona, but I love too Cloud and Zack ^.^ really nice game, and the graphics are awesome for that year ^^
Man, the cut-scenes in this game is JUST PLAIN AWESOME!!!! And the characters don't need to speak in these scenes. The scenes themselves pretty much speak for themselves. Why can't more games have cut-scenes like that anymore?
I gotta say to you, ffviii was the biggest graphical advancement in video game-history, it was ages from ANY other game at the time, no company has ever managed to push a console to its limit in the way square did with ffviii
@mbDiary There was dialogue, just not during the cut scenes; however, voice acting was something no Final Fantasy had until X. You used to have to read the text and use your imagination a bit more.
in COMPLETE honesty, it would have been wicked if Squall went into a coma or something or somehow went MIA after the end of disc 1 (where Edea hurls a magic icicle at him and ends up piercing his chest) and you had to play as the other 5 characters for a little bit till he got better or was found, just my $0.02
iirc he made a full recovery very quickly, or at least the next instance of gameplay allowed you to use him right away
I can't understand why 8 is not celebrated more. The cinematics of the cut scenes and the way you interact within in them (4:41) -simply amazing, especially for gaming in 1999. It felt like a movie where what you did mattered in the scene. Few games do this successfully (like Heavenly Sword).
9/9/99 Dreamcast & FF8 launch- that was an awesome day.
it gets annoying when they dont talk but if there was voices it could have been a bad game maybe cuz of the cheesy voices they do if there aint enough money
