Oooh. I might be able to actually finish it if I get this. I'd have to get a USB controller though, my fingers are far too fiddly otherwise.
It'll be easier than getting another PS2 and trying to find a copy of the game.

What was shiny in the PlayStation back then, wasn't shiny anywhere else, at least compared to the N64 and Voodoo graphics PCs of the era, heck, the Dreamcast was already released when this game came out.
The PS1 is truly the most graphically outdated platform ever concieved. Did anyone gave a shit?, of course not, that with those shiny and sometimes downright beautiful FMVs and great games overall, I still (generally) don't give a shit about how crappy it looked.
On a different note, this whole affair of FFVIII getting a facelift for PC a la FFVII gives me a resounding meh, I want IX gods dammit >.<'
FFVII never got a facelift, it just got a GOG-style rerelease that actually plays on modern systems.SupahGamuh said:
And yeah, I'm all for a IX release, but seriously, I don't get it... why put all this effort into the title in your library LEAST likely to pay off? 'Test case' my arse, I swear if they use this failing as an excuse not to re-release the better FF games, I'm going to... do... um... something.
VII did get graphical enhancements as well as a new soundtrack (that everyone hates).JarinArenos said:
I don't know why I thought it was FFVII at first and I thought "Eh, this again."
And then I realized it was FFVIII, my favorite game ever. So yes, I'm up for this. Anything that has to do with FFVIII, I'm up for it.

I wonder if they're going to update the game by adding more stuff to it. For example, adding in the April Fools the Seifer leader scenario, adding more story to the rest of the characters so each can have a resolution, and adding in the chocobo character for a member of the party like the FF8 PC game did. It would be cool if Seifer, Ward, Laguna, Kiros, and Edea became a party member again and learned more limit breaks, and Raijin and Fujin become part of the group as well with their own limit breaks.
