[Deleted member 249]

Might as well get it at this point lol

 

[The Last One]

Yeah, they gave the same treat for the character models as they did before for IX. Looks great.

 

[Kouriozan]

Congrats Wazzy, you deserve this!

 

[lake]

Cool. We'll see what mods it needs on PC.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Better late than never, I suppose.

 

[Moogle]

 

[B.K.]

What am I missing? It looks like...old FF8.

It's a remaster, not a remake. There's only so much you can do with a PS1 game.

 

[LowParry]

There is a god!

 

[Anaron]

Yesssssssss

 

[mute]

Best news of the night! :)

 

[steviestar3]

Ew

 

[N_Cryo]

Did they finally find the original game?

 

[Strings]

Am I crazy thinking they maybe used some of the Kingdom Hearts models as reference for the faces and stuff? Maybe just straight up the models?

Looks great, much better than I was expecting it to.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Definitely looks like they put some effort in this. Now they need to go back and do that to 9.

 

[KaCo]

The new models look good, need that date asap please SE!

 

[Tace]

Can't wait! Day 0

 

[Wazzy]

OKAY NOW THAT THE THREAD IS UP OMFG HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE


I'M CRYING

I'M SORRY BUT I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE INSTA POSTED BY SOMEONE ELSE. ; ;

 

[carlsojo]

Took them long enough to remaster the best FF.

 

[Deleted member 34949]

Those character models holy fuck

All in, fuck FF8 haters

 

[Guzim]

I can't wait. It's the first Final Fantasy I played.

 

[Vincent Grayson]

Wish I could have it right now, but this is amazing either way.

 

[Masagiwa]

The release date's gonna get revealed in a Nintendo Direct isn't it?

 

[Doctrine Dark]

Day fucking one.

 

[krlitros87]

[Suede]

The day has finally come.

 

[jiggle]

Very happy they improved the characters
Made the backgrounds look even worse
But I'll take it!

 

[Smurf]

[PIkkonX]

Fantastic, been waiting forever for this. My Switch is about to have a ridiculous FF catalog.

 

[ReCross]

[Wilsongt]

[Subconian Dreamer]

[AMAGON]

[HiroTSK5]

[Deleted member 2340]

I'll get this day one if i can get it full screen on my Switch in portable mode.

 

[Miang]

JUST GIVE IT TO ME

 

[Anustart]

2nd best final fantasy right behind 6.

Hot take time! Most of the hate for ff8 comes from people new to the series with 7 expecting a continuation of that world.

 

[Trieu]

Amazing. Day1. My favorite game

 

[ZeroX]

I'M SORRY BUT I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE INSTA POSTED BY SOMEONE ELSE. ; ;

[DSP]

looks good enough to me

 

[inner-G]

This looks better than the FF VII update to me.

 

[Aleh]

Definitely looks like they put some effort in this. Now they need to go back and do that to 9.

Click to shrink...

But they did, complete with new character models, HD cutscenes, and high res UI and icons, and boosters

 

[Tarahiro]

Great! My favourite FF. I was starting to think it would never happen.

 

[ULTROS!]

* Updated character models

Click to shrink...

I guess this will be rendered void now haha:

 

[Deleted member 3465]

Um the updated models look really great, impressed!

 

[Orion]

Those new models tho

VIII won.

 

[Carroway]

Best FF there is, finally!

 

[ParsnipForest]

"Remastered"

But really, awesome news for the fans.

 

[ThreePi]

Honestly, I'm going to need to see side-by-sides between this and the version already on Steam. I wouldn't be against playing through this again, but that trailer really doesn't look all that much different than what I already have.

 

[Corran Horn]

Hmm do I get a discount if I already own 8 on Steam? lol probably not but Ill rebuy anyway.
