Be well Rinoa. Be well Squall. Ive been a crack addict fiend for your video game since i was in third grade----played it endlessly with my sister all the time.
Good memories. Back when I was a kid I got Final Fantasy VII and VIII for my birthday. Since VIII was the newer one I decided to play it first and instantly fell in love with it. I then collected all the Finale Fantasy games thinking this series is awesome. For the most part they were all awesome. I don't really like the newer ones though. After 10 it no long felt the same for me.
This AMV is, hands down, my new favorite FF8 AMV. I'm glad to see that it's not just about the relationship, it includes just about everything. I had to think to remember where the fish part was in the game, since it's been awhile. Anyway, it's very well done, and you picked an awesome song.
I love 'So cold' and I absolutely love FFVIII, so I figured this was a win/win situation. But it was so much more than that. This is perhaps one of the best AMVs I have seen in quite a while. The cutting was excellent and the high points of the song corrosponded with the more emotional parts of the game. FFVIII, is my fav RPG of all time. Even with today's standard of games, IMO, it still stands up. Squall is a great protagonist despite his loner nature with his struggle to embrace his emotions
Awesome :D Although like 1 or 2 clips in that I havent seen before O_O And this is from someone who has been completing FF8 since he was 7 o_o Is it only on the american version? Beacuse i'm in england haha
7 was good, but i dont get why so many say its the best - 8 (which i finished last night) was at least just as good, i thought it was great, 9 was amazing, 10 is my favourite but only by a hair. and im playing 4 right now, which has proved to be amazing so far! they definitely dont get enough credit. i know people may be getting sick of love stories, but square are so good at it!! awesome amv btw! another great breaking benjamin song ive now heard!
Thankyou to everyone who has watched, commented and rated the vid so far. The response from final fantasy 8 fans has been tremendous and im glad to have had a part in relighting the spark from playing this amazing game. Its an old vid but im going to leave it up in response to final fantasy 8 becoming available on the psn. please continue to rate and comment on your old, and new experiences playing this fantastic game :)
yeah 9 gets pretty good towards the end, its more of a return to 7's story after many people disliked the changes in 8. Personally i think 8 was an amazing story.
@wiccawaccamofo I've played others but I totally feel you on the emotion thing. I just posted a vid response to this, long story short, it's this AMV someone made of it in like 1999 that I've saved for like 10 years now.. and I uploaded it, didn't create it.. but it really takes me back to that emotional headspace.. 15 years old, and very attached to the characters. Now I'm 25 and I wanna play it again for the first time in like 9 years.. lol
Its really great to still be seeing newer videos for the game. Especially one thats so well put together, really good job. And.. FF8 is the first Final fantasy I ever played. and it will always be my favourite by far ( followed by 10 )
Do not count on GF and area attacks. Make sure you equip each of the characters that will be fighting Adel with 99 of the best Magics and junction them to Strength and HP. Heal Rinoa when you can. Keeping your characters' levels low (less than 70) also helps, since Adel's level is determined by them.
DUDE u deserve a 5/5 for that i just felt it should of been alittle more actiony not to discredit u or anything anyway sweet job on da video n keep it up ^_^
@0heavensquall0 I agree with you, but I'll add that I think FF8's graphics did what they needed to do extremely well, and that the 3D characters on a 2D rendered background made it sorta like still playing an SNES RPG.. like from top down.. now, the stage moves around the character instead.. makes it a different experience, and for my mileage, less FF-like. Also, I'd say FFVIII's gameplay was superior to most of them, but especially the more current ones.. so they must not be focusing hard.
When Square finishes VsXIII, which I have no doubt will be as perfect as VII and VIII, they really need to remake VII AND VIII they are both amazing and get deserve a remake, if they had have spent their time on Vs and remaking these two, instead of the atrocity that is the XIII trilogy, we'd have the three best FF's all on ps3 by now...
@xtimrs Yeah i was bout 15 lol. The story always brought me back to this game, better than any book ive read. unfortunately im too old to care about the characters in ff 13 now lol
Hee hee! The Ultima Weapon was easy! One good Lion Heart was all it took. As for the Omega Weapon...Actually GETTING to him was the hard part. My Zell -squee- and Squall -glomp- tagged teamed him to death. -Rinoa helped too, somehow- It also helped that I had maxed out meh party members ^.-)
fuckin awesome vid,,,, i loved ff7 story, i just thought the game play was off some, but i still bloody love it, there were parts of the game play that i loved and just didn't like, its been a long time since ive played but im a rpg lover and anime addicted all the way SO KEEP FUCKIN ROCKING!
Okay, 8 had some good things about it, the cgi movies in were bad ass, Zack was an Ivan were awesome, but the story fell apart about 2/3rds though it, and all my best magic went into uping the stats, it was nice having ungodly amounts of HP,(well over 9999) but I had to use all my Curaja to get it, and drawing magic, yeah they never used that system again. Needless to say I was very happy with what they did with 9. Damn re-reading this i realize what a huge nerd I am. Oh well, I can live with it
@666jaybird666 For some reason I parked on the Northern Crater in FF7 years ago.. and I never resumed and fought Sephiroth.. I had gone down in a bit too.. lol I chickened out. Those games were too epic for my 14 year old ass.
@0heavensquall0 Well, considering the year that this RPG came out, the cut scenes would be considered AMAZING graphic-wise. At least, for each Final Fantasy game, cutscenes have progressively gotten better animation as well as actual gameplay design. >.> Just sayin'.
I agree with donkgoth, from a personal point of view only a pea brained person with no intellectual maturity would say that FF VIII is not one of the best games ever created. But I don't actually blame them, this game has such a unique story that only a few can admire it, believe or not things here can be applied for your personal growth just pay attention to Squall's inner monologues, Squall-Seifer rivalry or how characters change when they learn about their origin
@pjeskey1 They do indeed, but with news this year about square hring for ff 7 for the next gen of consoles it looks like ff8 is gonna take a back seat. shame
really!? Ultima Weapon is hard for you? i should tell u that in the battle cast Haste and Aura to Squall and that will help a lot when you get in a frnzy of Renzokukens! but Ultima is a baby boy, wait 'till you get to see Omega Weapon... 6 seconds to get to him, and another 10 seconds for him to wipe your party...
pple don't like 8 because it's a love story, ff7 is a very cool story how cloud is a mercenary in the beginning and as the story progresses it's not about the money anymore, it's about saving people and stopping the comet. Only thing i don't like is the cartoony graphics when you run around
ff8 great best one i rlly do not know y ppl like cloud better then squall i mean if u pay attention to the cutscenes and dissidia hjes the only one who fight for and to see rinoa again
ummm. i played ff7 after i played ff8, and i couldnt stand it. never went farf. have never been able to play any other ff franchise because of the overwhealming emotion i got from that game. in my opinion, ff7 didnt match up.
Be well Rinoa. Be well Squall. Ive been a crack addict fiend for your video game since i was in third grade----played it endlessly with my sister all the time.

This is officially the best FFVIII music video I have seen so far! Great work!!!

final fantasy 8 is too good to be true :)
I love it;)

@nalam099
Agreed! powerful storyline
same...i never got to finish the game coz my characters were to weak and i couldnt start again lol
i know it is quite hard to find action clips for ff8 cuz its more a love story than an action one
@0heavensquall0 I agree with you on how rpg's lately have fallen from what they were then, but I'd have to argue against FF8 with FF7! ^.~
Thanks :)
@taybar00017 omg the guy from Wild arms 2 says in my humble opinon lol
Thanks for the input man. An I Know what you mean lol, tried to keep it away from stereotypical FF8.
this is awesome, but i feel bad lots of ppl didnt c that bcuz ff7 was so succesfull and this didnt match up
sweet
Cant wait till they put Seifer in Dissidia 2
@MischievousHeart FF7!!!
