Imagine hating a game so much you have to come to a thread about its potential remaster and tell everyone how you hope the remaster never comes out.

I'm certainly hoping this is true, and a proper remaster like others mentioned. FF8 is great.

My post was tongue in cheek about it never coming out obviously, but the game is total shit to me.

I was hyped as hell Back in the day after playing 7, then I played it and I didn't what the fuck was happening and I hated it.

I mean you don't have to like it lol

It's just weird to be upset that such a massively popular game is getting a remaster.

Do switch users cry like this all the time?

On Topic: I dont have as many fond memories with ff8 as i do ff7/FF9/FFT but i'll welcome this like i did 7 and 9.


Sensitive much? All I said is I hope it's on Switch. I don't have time to play any games on dedicated home consoles so I'd like the chance to re-play the game and it'll be a bummer for me if it isn't in the format I want. Not sure in what world this is "crying".

Drawing is tedious but with Triple Triad obtaining strong magic for junctions early on is fun. Best mini game of all time. Even though buffing with endgame magic via TT removes all challenge, I can't help doing it every replay because I enjoy it so much lol

I hope they did something about the tedious summon system. Sitting through the scenes and hitting the button to strengthen was cool back in the day...now it would be ultra inconvenient.

Same. Bought it at launch. The concept is great, graphics were mindblowing at the time, music is awesome, character and world art design are great; but the actual story, characterization, and gameplay systems shit the bed so hard I quit it halfway through. My friend at the time had a copy of Final Fantasy Tactics, which was getting hard to find, and he traded FFT to me for FFVIII... which I still consider today to be one of the greatest known heists in recorded history.

This is THE announcement of E3 2019.

To be able to replay the best FF in HD... and watch it gather up a whole new generation of millions of fans... The Madonna of games, truly.

If you haven't played Legend VIII yet, get ready for the best love story in a game, the best art direction in the series, the best soundtrack, two great leads (Squall & Rinoa), LGBT icon Zell and his obsession with hot dogs, and a fantastic customizable battle system.

OMG what if they implement proper widescreen and give Legend VIII a physical release on cartridge??? Whew

I think this was the original The Last Jedi for me. Everyone just shit all over it and I didn't understand and I never will. Top 3 in the series.

FF8 is kinda fun because how easy is to break the game through the Triple Triad. Not to mention Limit Break spam in critical.

CD1 FF8 is still my favourite mainline FF (Tactics is the best but that's cheating).

Well probably the remastered is only the PC version ported to console..

Not necessarily. The PC version is barely touched from the PC version from 1998; if it's anything like the IX re-release, we'll have some sharper models and environments, native controls (instead of seeing PC or PS1 buttons, we'll see the system's buttons), and some QoL tweaks here and there.

Would be great if this was announced and available to buy tomorrow but probably it will be released later this summer.
