Who else thinks FFVIII needs some spin offs?

I seriously think that Square overlooked this game when they made all the FF7 spinoffs. There would be a huge market for something like this, anyone agree?

Only the delusional people who thought FFVIII was somehow a good game would want this. I can't see much interest in this.

As long as its not a crappy film sequel like Advent Children, I wouldn't mind it.

I genuinely thought it was a really good game, the junction system was very immersive, the story was by far the best in any final fantasy so far. The chemistry between Squall and Rinoa was epic.
I just think it needs something new

No no no no & NO!! The Final Fantasy franchise, it doesn't matter which one you're talking about, doesn't need to be milked anymore then it already has been. Square needs to stop making spin offs to Final Fantasy games and generally milking their already successful franchises and start coming up with some new stuff already!

Only retards and sheep though that FF7 was even playable. FF8 was a brilliant game and deserves so much more attention unlike FF7 which has had every possible drop of money squeezed out, making a string of awful spin offs from an awful game.

I meant more in the context of IF they're making spinoffs, I know enough about 7 already, and I've seen enough of final disney.

Imo 8 was terrible, for all reasons ever posted previously on this forum. (Search ff8). The only people that i know that liked 8 were the people that were just a little to young to enjoy 6 or 7 and 8 was their first jump onto the square bandwagon. But really...it was a pretty bad game in comparison. I can't think of any sort of spinoff that could be interesting. sorry.

Not really, FF8 was never as big as FF7 and never will be. I don't think they'd make enough money to justify expenses.

What they should do is update FF7,8 and 9. Just the graphics though, keeping the original music. Making these available to download on the Playstation Store or on disc for PS2. Like what they did for the first metal gear solid but not ruining the music and cutscenes by 'hollywooding' it up. Also, no new gameplay aspects.

ouch no need to flame me for loving this game and cherishing it as my number 1 favorite game of all time why do people hate it for being a bit different

but no. a remake maybe dust it off, but spin offs I would think not

I'm sorry sir I loved 8 and I had played final fantasy 4 and 6 before it and they were epic (7 was okay but not the godly masterpice people say its overrated in my opinion...) I have played pretty much every final fantasy game to date (including spin offs and such) and I find 8 to be the best

NO, NO, NO. FFVIII WAS TERRIBLE. THE SPIN OFFS FOR FFVII WERE TERRIBLE PLANS JUST TO MILK PEOPLE LIKE THE OP. Anyways, it's demand for things like this that keeps square from exploring their other classic properties, or god forbid, invest time to make some good ones.

This is why I hate (yes, HATE) Final Fantasy. Everyone is gushing about it and there are made a new spin off every frikkin' morning.
I normally don't care less for things I dislike, but when you get it thrown in your face everywhere by fans, I simply start to hate it. And I hate Final Fantasy with a passion now. No more spin offs. PLEASE!

Personally, I would avoid anything with FFVIII attached to it like the plague. All the people I know who don't like FFVII are people who don't like any JRPGs anyways. All the people I know who do like JRPGs can't stand FFVIII. I mean come on, Final Fantasy is all about being attached to the characters, and Squall was a semi-mute Emo robot. I don't think that VIII has the same extensive fan base that warrants spin offs. If you like it, great, but I think the people who like it are niche enough that a spin-off wouldn't be as profitable as they would want.

Why bother remaking any Final Fantasy? They were good for their time but we should focus on making something new and good not remaking what is already good and (most likely) turning it into a poor game. If any Final Fantasy is remade and it sucks, all of you people wanting a remake will come right back here, bitching and moaning about how they did this wrong and should never have remade it.
