I seriousy doubt that will happen...FF8 didn`t do that well(AFAIK) compared to some of the other FFs, and it`s perhaps the most disliked game in the series along with #9.

Yeah, 8 and I have a love/hate relationship. I range from passionate hate to the absolute NEED to take up the controls of that stupid angsty teenager. which then leads back to the hate.

Actually, despite it being my favourite FF, I never really cared much for most of the cast in #8. I dislike nearly everyone with the exception of Squall, Quistis, Rinoa and Laguna`s team. I also agree with everyone about the scene at the end of disc 2 was a bit lame.

What makes me like the game so much is the setting/world. For some reason the setting usually interests me more than the characters in fantasy games and novels. It was the first FF with actual nations, or at least nations with a bit more depth than the Evil Empire. Even though Galbadia has definite traces of this, it still feels more developed to me. I love how the world is so like our own, making it easy to relate to, but different at the same time. I also like the architecture and decorations on things(Balamb Garden, for example, is beautiful!). There are also so many locations I like, and so many small details which added depth to the world. Such things are the encyclopedia in the tutorial, or the names given to all the regions of the world map. They were actually realistic, instead of [Insert nearest major town here] Area. Or the magazines. Most people might not even notice, but such attention to detail really enchances the game for me.

A modern RPG was also refreshing, at least to me. I`d call the game more "modern" than outright sci-fi. I also liked a lot of the concepts, such as the whole millitary school thing, and they way that magic was actually developed through science from real Sorceress magic. I also liked the Laguna sequences a lot...I was so confused the first time. :)

I agree about most of the characters being lacklustre, the love story a little cheesy(even though it`s touching to watch Squall transform), and don`t get me started on the combat system...it`s so easy to abuse it`s not even funny. You can either get ridiculously powerful ridiculously early, or struggle horribly the entire game(if you rely on GF summoning rather than card playing and Junctioning). But I still love the game, despite all that. Oh, and the game also contains "The Oath"..one of the most beautiful pieces of gaming music ever created, IMHO.

Whew! That post became much longer than I`d intended...I`ll shut up now. :)

I loathe FF8. I hate the magic system. I hate the cookie-cutter plot. I had the plot holes. I hate the weapon's system. The only things I do like in it are Irvine (who I originally hated but has since grown on me), Fujin, Selphie, and Quistis. Ultimately they weren't enough to keep me interested. I really don't like Squall at all. Scratch that -I hate him. Boring jerk. Only good thing about it technically is the soundtrack has some nice pieces.

On the other hand, I'll never know why everyone hates FF9 because that was, IMO, the best of the FF franchaise.

Lessee.... personally, I despise FF9 due to the childishness of it all. Visually, it was appealing but there was something about it I don't like. I can't quite place my finger on it.
FF8, it was more of graphics rather than plot. There wasn't much to it and the romance thing tasted like plastic at the back of my mouth.

FF7 had a plotline at the least and a bishie to drool after. XD
I really wanna watch!

Aah, I forgot to mention the graphics of FF8...I really like the more "realistic" look.

Anyway, I`ve also had some trouble understanding the hatred for FF9. It was really ultra-traditional, maybe a little too much, and it has my least favourite cast of any FF. Stupid Steiner, the extremely ugly-looking and no purpose-serving Amarant and Eiko, a 6 year old for crying out loud. And don`t get me started on Quina...worst videogame character EVER, as far as I`m concerned. Zidane, Garnet, Vivi and Freya were cool, though.

But I still like the game. It might have been a little too traditional for it`s own good, but it was still a fine, solid RPG. The chocobo mini-game was the best in the series IMHO(that and Blitzball, but Blitzball gets extremely tedious after a while).

EDIT: One thing struck me...Sophita, why do you hate FF8`s weapon system? It`s fairly similliar to Suikoden`s...the part finding can get a little annoying, I agree, but it`s fun to be able to get the Lionheart on Disc 1...:)
