Flashback: FFVIII?!?



Of all the video game intros, that has to be my favorite. Of all the video game weapons, the gunblade has to be my favorite. Of all the video game characters, Squall Leonhart has to be my favorite. And the only game with all three must be my favorite. And Final Fantasy VIII truely is. A classic game, and my introduction into the FF world. Or worlds. The only thing they tend to have in common is the system. They also seem to have at least one super cool character.

Fantastic plot, easy-ish battle system, interesting dialog, and an entire world are what this game offered the world. Not only that, but the game is so awesome, the entire story spans four discs. It may not have the continuity that its predecessor spawned, but it doesn't need to. Any continuation would destroy the perfect it has already obtained, which I'd truly hate to see.

And the best part, at least for me, was the fact that I got it for free. This time.

Hey, loving something doesn't mean I'll pay for it.
I'm always broke, remember?
