Great Cast, Great Story, Fun to play my personal favorite of the series

User Rating: 10 | Final Fantasy VIII (Platinum) PS
By CrazedColombian | Review Date:
Everyone seems to love FF7, aside from Seiphorth being awesome that game was not the best not the best no where near as good as FF6, FF8 or FF10.

Story
Its a love story, probably the reason many do not agree with me. It has a easy to follow story about a loner who changes for the better and actually makes sense. The game really has no main bad guy just your rival and then the actual bad guy who you don't find out about till the end of the game.

Characters
Everyone is human, as a good cast of very different characters

Gameplay
The summons are very important in this game both to story and game play. Too many times do you rely on them and every time you call one it is a very long scene that can't be skipped. Magic is acquired by stealing it from villains.

Overall story wise I found it to be the best FF8 followed closely by FF6 or 10. I found the gameplay fun and the replay value is huge. I have it on PS1 and recently downloaded it on PSN defiantly worth the $10 bucks
