Final Fantasy VIII - Walkthrough Part 7

[ArabellArabell]

Heya Amer or maybe anyone?

I'm trying to get a few Star Fragments & a Fury Fragment, I know which monsters you need to kill to acquire these items, yet I just want to refine the items from Triple Traid. As said, could anyone possibly tell me the fastest ways to acquire four Blue Dragon cards & A nice amount Of Iron Giants from, & from who?

If anyone does answer this, I'll give you this early thanks!

[ChrisGomezForever]

how did you get the zell and quistis cards?

[goldmare]

What an amazinf monster... it can fly while sleeping! :o

[goldmare]

@goldmare Excuse the typo... >_<

[shawnadavies]

how do you get it where you win all the cards if you win?

[BARRERA2U]

@shawnadavies Read the comment on the top sent by GoingCrazy201

[BARRERA2U]

I challenge the queen to get the "all" rule and i won but when I went to fight againg Zell's Mom, she uses the rule "diff" . Help??

[MonsterHunterHelp]

this is the one thing ill always love playstation for

[BARRERA2U]

Once you had Quistis, you just had your first tie I think. Quistis suck. :/

[gentlefist18]

Every time I see you go to the damn cafeteria, they either closed or outta hotdogs. I'd have whooped SOMEbody's ass by now... playin' with MY damn food... lol

[stangabe1993]

I really dislike seeing that "miss" word alot, especially if its for an enemy!

[TheGreatMrL]

My God, it's just like Yu-Gi-Oh!

"Why is everyone in this game a f*cking duelist?"

[stangabe1993]

@TheGreatMrL I think its much easier than playing with Yu-Gi-Oh cards but I like watching it.

[bigestboob1]

is it true that ff8 is out on psp

[thebigb59]

@bigestboob1 technically yes, you can buy it on the store and play it on your ps3 and psp

[BARRERA2U]

@thebigb59 You can buy ff8 at the store?  I never see it since it an old game. Is it at gamestop or some game store??

[thebigb59]

@BARRERA2U You can get it on the PSN, also you can now get 6, so its 6,7,8 and 9 all on the PSN Store

[BARRERA2U]

@thebigb59 I have an Xbox360 so,first thing is What and Where is the PSN Store?

[thebigb59]

@BARRERA2U PS Store is the PS3's Marketplace, because Final Fantasy VI, VII, VIII and IX where released on the PS1 they are on there as classics

[FloriixBaybee]

@thebigb59

REALLY???? 6 is on there too?!?!

i must've missed it!! D:

waaait... are you suure???

[thebigb59]

@FloriixBaybee yep, I believe its in the Japanese and EU stores, not sure about the US store

[EternalCrappyKid]

i suppose this is a good game but the card game ruined it for me....i just never understood the thing

[stangabe1993]

@EternalCrappyKid I didn't at first but eventually, I got the hang of it. You can too.

[EternalCrappyKid]

@stangabe1993 hehehe funny you mention that....an hour later, i was ROLLING throught the card game...

[stangabe1993]

@EternalCrappyKid Yeah. Its interesting though because after I beat the game and stop playing it for a while, I finally understood how to play! If only my brother didn't take his PS1 back, I would be playing that over again. Too bad because he said it broke. Bogus! At least I get to watch it on Youtube thank GOD.

[happypeppyperson]

I REALLY like the music when you play the card games on here.

[Mi3nBoiDaniel]

i was just wondering do u start the game with squalls limit break/Renzokuken or do you have to wait later on to able to use it?

[stangabe1993]

@Mi3nBoiDaniel As long as you have auras or if you can make his health low enough, you can perform Renzokuken

[divineoblivion1]

Hey, did you have a choice in how that conversation with Quistis, or was that all part of the game?

[ChibiRini1]

How are you winning all the opponents cards if you didn't beat all of his? When I play the game if there is even one of their cards I didn't beat I can only choose one of their cards.

You used a cheat right?

[cyberdrache3]

FF8 has one of the most bad-ass Boss-battle themes EVER.

[krazy4knives]

uhh im only lvl 10 here, im screwed arent i...

[helpyoutogo]

OMG HOW DID YOU GET TO PLAY CARDS EVEN IN THIS PART I CANT PLAY CARDS HAT DO I DO PLZ REPLY!! >.<

[phirestarter1]

(32:05) Finally!

[jppfeil]

Tombery WILL 1 HIT KO YOU!?

[WillsKirjava]

I dig Squall's jacket.  It's FREAKING AWESOME.

[aaronlogz]

do you really need to play card games to beat the game?

[FiraGun90]

@aaronlogz No but its recomended as it is good for characters.

[Marios8rylos]

i solved the problem with the remodel in esthar u can buy all the magazines anyway ty HixXxXxiH

[tampham11411]

i dont get the card game. some one plz help.

[Marios8rylos]

plz someone give me a clue about where is some magazine for remodel weapons or tell me in witch videos i can find out

[HixXxXxiH]

If you haven't solved that issue yet:

You don't need any magazine, if you have all the items that are needed, you can remodel your weapons without having the magazines.

You can easily checkt out which items you need via Google. ;D

[danielpickering]

I usually have my characters health up by 3000 at this point by convernting windmills into tornado. It is wicked as they are still strong and can use the limit breaks. Also winning a load of Elastoids helps as you can covert the Steel Pipes into Aura Stones. I usually get around a 100. Just tells you how much I like playing the card games

[furytanka]

Humm how did you got the "All" rule for card game please ? :)

[bigballa6336]

yeah and level doesn't matter in this game either sheesh people I am getting sick of reading all this I leveled blah blah.

[tydilling]

you know what i trained squall to a Lv 30 the first time i played and i did not even battle the first boss.

[fuckahater07]

how do you play that crappy card game? lol im not gettin it

[WindOfSolitude]

where do you go to refine your cards to get items?

[xelahemo123]

you know i used to sit there and DRAW 100 fires or 100 everything from the badd guys and it totally crushed me, when i realized the magic just got better and wasted my time doing that-BUT I WAS STRONG HECKS YES~

[JamesBondfan89]

@xelahemo123 One of my friends got even characters to 100 lvl, in disc one. He said he played whole night.

[MIBFreakPack]

i like the music for the card game, as well as the rest of the music in FFVIII

[liftmedown001]

Notice how the Granaldo's pals are not a card. When I first got all commons beside THAT level 5, I thought it was one of them. Then I found out the alien :P

[truewiddy]

after he play cards constantly and thats boring

[reikanobutushi11]

Do I have to play the card game to advance/level up/get cool stuff in this game? Or is it just one of those sidegames that I can choose not to do?

[ZombieSham]

You don't have to play at all to advance the game. The flip side is that you can win cards that can be refined to give you powerful magic quite early on - you can have spells like Tornado and Thundaga before Dollet.

[ZombieSham]

Oh, and you can also get all but one of the ultimate weapons before the end of disc 1 by winning and refining cards.

[fuckahater07]

@ZombieSham is there any other way cuz the card game is kinda complicated for me

[626KiDD]

@fuckahater07

The higher the number the better A is the highest. 1-A... which means A = 10. For example if a card has all 3's around it that means you must have a card higher than +3.

[fuckahater07]

thnx

[duvy1234]

Poooor quistis.

[HTankGlory]

Indeed... :(  She deserves so much better!

[luisdavidsan]

bien :)

[FF3710Freak]

You know... Quistis looks like Shalua out of Dirge of Cerberus only with two eyes and no glasses... does anyone know what i mean?

[DukeofGrandeour]

i argee ^___^

[FF3710Freak]

I'm glad someone does!

[badoman5000]

you've go to hold select then press square button and the GF your using has to know boost

[theunnamed02]

for some reason.....i feel that quistis is de only instructor.....XD

[HTankGlory]

Same here. ^^

[markzvagina]

I hate that stupid bloody card game in FF8... A good game otherwise

[SamFisherCell]

I hated the card game too. Now I understand and love it :P

[AnneARcTiCa]

Squall is badass? More like asshole!

[Jdogman101]

Awsome soundtrack. Squall just spells badass, I don't know why he's the exact opposite in Kingdom Hearts. Must be the reason I've never played it.

[mysticmax777]

because kingdom hearts is made by disney and disney is run by wusses and wusses often make wussy characters like peter pan tarzan captain hook and stuff they could not make a good sqaull even if you feed them an entire biography on the guy

[Jdogman101]

Not all of Disney is bad. But Kingdom Hearts sucks when it came to FF.

[TARDISES]

>_> I couldn't get the benefits of enemy cards very early, because I didn't know about the card game until disc 2, and when I tried, I absolutely FAILED. I know waht to do but simply can't win at all.

[robimltube]

lol, give it up, Quistis. Squall's too badass for all the touchy feely stuff.

...Poor Quisty...

[Crok425]

you have Leviatan here?

[hybertot846]

arent you supposed to get a gf here???????

[grios13420]

he a pro at cards

[LeNNaKo]

If you mean GoingCrazy201, then it's she.

[DeathSinzz]

0:41 R@peniess wtf

[stephenomena]

i still don't think i understand this whole draw thing? maybe i was pretty young playing ff7 but i just used magic attacks a lot more, where as i'm hardly seeing any used here? can someone explain it a bit better for me?

[gil1989]

u can get the lionheart blade in the first disk

[khamjames]

yes you can get lionheart blade in the first disk. is easy. i;m tell you how. follow what i say understand. okay. when get out from the train after you fight the fake president. you head out into the forest like between the mountain. squall Quistis and Selphie go into the dream world okay when you into the bridge walk around until you fight Elastoid make sure you steal fury Fragment to make pulse ammo i tell you later that one

[tydilling]

well can any any one help me

[tydilling]

going crazy how do you get the key blade and the flame saber items. please tell me help me out please ?

[grios13420]

it is fun u never played -_- .....dork

[Grudgeman]

I rememeber that song that Plays when they are Playing cards!

Clap clap Clap

Clap clap Clap

[str8sk8t]

is it me or is dere timers , + gfs timers ridiculeously afst.

[andracrombiexo12]

where do u buy items I can't find any place to buy stuff and I don't know how you make squall stronger I hate that you have to level this all on ur own

[monmonskie]

in the card game how can you set the trade to "all"? ("got a hard time understanding it") XD

[GoingCrazy201]

When in Balamb Town, near the train station will be the Queen of Cards, keep challenging her til she offers the All rule, beat her, then most everyone else should start to offer it

[furytanka]

@GoingCrazy201 Arf sorry for the unnecessary comment, i didn't see you've already answered this question ^^ (sorry for baaad english i'm french ;)

[osamabinpawning123]

@GoingCrazy201 the queen of card never offers the All rule in my game i don't get it

[MasterFungy]

@GoingCrazy201 i never actually understood the rules of the card game, can you explain?

[ScorpioSnake]

Great videos! Here's some info for you Triple Triad card lovers: they actually made REAL versions of the cards to buy in Japan. I have the complete set, and finding them now is really tough.

[PlanBsk8rkid]

its in your dorm room

[PlanBsk8rkid]

how do you get the sleep magic?

[loonyun]

Man the card game took me quite a long time to understand and came out becoming so early..

[Yoshiaki5]

you're good at triple triad :)

[theseaheart]

love the walkthroughs, but i can never understand how to play that card game.

[caffei]

no? basically you have 4 numbers on a card...from 1 to A being the highest. there is a number for each side of the card.

now for example...your card has 3 in the top...opponents card has 5 in the bottom...he will basically beat you...

but there is also rules that can apply...

you better watch videos for this because its too long to explain ^_^

[theseaheart]

thank you, i think i can go from here.

[pyro43261]

I still don't get it...

[caffei]

lets see...maybe itll help if you see it. at 10:00, she challenges three girls near the dormitory.she begins by placing a bomb card in the middle...and then the opponent place a vysage card up of it...bomb has 2 on the upper side of the card...and vysage has 4 in the bottom. so your opponent won over this card because he has a higher number...

did it help???

[pyro43261]

lol Well, I actually don't have the game anymore. But if I did I'm sure it would come in handy so thanks anyway! Sorry you had to waste such a long explanation!:(

[caffei]

lol dont say that! XD I like helping people ^_^ I really dont mind writing long texts!

[fabiuz96email]

I love the hard bosses song o.O

[kinkong228]

everay 1 if u want hacks go to download FFVIII cp trainer!!!!!!

[hoopblah93]

i havent played this game yet but it looks like the best one. i am getting it for christmas woohoo

[kewlman500]

hey i have a question...Squall is level 17 but he's only doing around 68 damage for his physical...can you tell me what i am doing wrong?

it seems every time i start a new game my guy come out to be very weak

even at level 40 i can only do 354 physical damage

[GoingCrazy201]

Then you need to learn how to Junction. To get spells I played cards like crazy & modded the cards with Quezacotls card modding abilities into items, then modded the items into spells, & Junctioned them to HP, Str, etc.

[TacoKnightJayden]

nagi, you should learn how to play triple triad(the cards) its really fun.

[nagi485]

man your a card fantic i didnt really get the rules thats why i didnt play

[hitdude47]

Gants in this game look like plants.

[warhero721]

you kmnow that thing were you press The Square butte whene you go to use the gfs? at 3:40. how do you get that? i never learned how lolz

[GoingCrazy201]

called the boost ability

[warhero721]

ahh thx man :D ima gonig to start traing my gf for that right now lolz

[codyscodes]

your good with cards

[PieandBob]

o.O over power much? Shiva annihilated those guys.

[Thefilthyblood]

Lol.yeah,overpowered

[PieandBob]

I :heart: FFVIII Shiva though. =D

[gaarafrednorris]

granraldo looks like megaguiris from godzilla

[s4yum1]

I wish I had a friend like Zell who would always be cheerful and close to you...

Oh..and a pretty girlfriend like Rinoa (I prefer Quistis though :P)

[HTankGlory]

I prefer Quistis as well. :)

[myhaoangek5]

ummm when does irvine kinneas appear?

[caffei]

when youre at galbadia garden, he will join before you leave ^_^

[moscobhc]

That would suck since YuGiOh sucks and doesnt fit a bit to FF

[redspeed]

thats the dumbest idea ive ever heard

[Zero121090X]

All these card battles just make me want to play Yu-Gi-Oh......good tmes, gooooood tiimes

[leo7278]

i just started this game again its very fun lol

[j3parrots]

XI is great but the cards was a great idia in 9 aswell

[bringsan90]

Help me get through Triple Trid?!

[Chevy57l]

I hated the card game when those shady rules applied such as "Same" and "Plus." I used to get screwed when going after Edea's card.

[Feralbreed]

THe card game is fun, addictive and easy to learn...Well the basics atleast, but the 'plus' rule is beyond my comprehension...I get it sometimes with luck...

[FFDemon8]

You're a lot better at triple triad than I am. I lost all my good cards trying to get the Edea card from Edea. She's good at the card game.....

I don't get the 'Plus' rule at all.

[chickenboy621]

omg how are you so strong at that level?

[WyvernRoxZor]

it's not so strong.. lol

[chickenboy621]

Stronger than i was 0.o.. i think.. it sbeen a while :P

[Northenman]

hehe, the card catching thing reminds me of when i was a kid playing on the first pokemon game. It seemed so good back then

[prgraffiti91]

how is she taking all the cards from them i can only take one can someone tell me

[littlebeastdan]

The card games are gd but they are abit weird but its so much better that yugioh could ever make it

[PhyrePhenix]

i dont get the card game i tried for 40 minutes and did the tutorial like 50 times i dont get it though

[althar08]

the numbers in the corners are basically the "power" of the card. If I lay a card with a 6 on the right side, you have to lay a card with something higher than a 6 to flip that card. Understand?

[DarthSorrow]

Let me guess? A is the strongest right?

[forsakensanctuary]

Hi,true but it's a 1999 game - what do you expect? For the time it was a great game and maybe for some it still is. well for me, it's still a top game, and i love playing it. **Thank you Amber for uploading the walkthroughs** Take Care everyone **

[guddynatasha]

yes it is the topppppessttt!

[pelicanwarlord]

i agree .. you play cards ALOT

[pelicanwarlord]

and your a fucking animal at it .. jesus

[forsakensanctuary]

if you want to enjoy a game you have to enjoy every little bits they put in! Amber loves card games, but so do I. heh heh heh... :)

[codysizemo]

gosh u play cards alot lol

[Sephirot1994]

how you can attack so much with squall? i hit something like 79 with critical

[PhyrePhenix]

press the trigger button when you attack

[PhyrePhenix]

press the trigger button when you attack

[Cyrus7500]

damn the only downfall in this game are the card games until now i dunno who came up with that stupid idea. Maybe it was trendy back then in their animes thou.

[ryukifantasy]

where can i find wendigos???

[rondarb]

near deling city i think. you can also find them in hilly types of areas.

[Jimmy378]

If you suck at cards then you can just keep pressing the Square button so that the rules are always the same;)

[ryukifantasy]

how to get stell pipe????

[Jimmy378]

You steal them from Wendigos

[Darkstareyes90]

What's your favourite final fantasy goingcrazy201?

[sunconuresgetwild]

How old is Squall anyways?

[JrStowell2]

he should be around 17 or so. check wikipedia and his age should be there.

[sunconuresgetwild]

K. thnx!

[xxyuffirinx]

I suck at the card game.xD i dont even understand it. and your squall is so much stronger then mine. mine was damaging about 70 points at this time and my quisis was damaging a bout 110 so yeah im behind. must be because i suck at this game. haha. i love your walkthroughs amber there the best and it must be a lot of work to record them all and post them so its just amazing. keep up the great work =]

[PunkPoser123]

Very good graphics, for ps1.

[EvilMeRc8]

where can i find elynoyle cards ppl use.. i got some from zells mom but she didnt use em alot.. there suppose someone in balamb who can.. i forget who

[Oifikzzy60]

the guy near the bay carries alot of them

[overbest]

Please who can give me the Wendigo card to get the 2nd weapon for selphie please reply

[RikkuTheCheerful]

stop being rude to amber. she rocks and her walkthroughs are good quality.

plus she's better than i would be. seroiusly.

[pat286]

i argee with you Rikku the only 3D Final Fantasy im good at is FFX

[canes123321]

no offense but ur not very good

[AdarianDreamer]

Woah, you're awesome at Triple Triad. You won every match. You even scored 8-2 on some of them. I remember losing so many times the first time I played through FF8.
