This is the best one, period

wishingW3L5006d ago

the game's good and it was my first FF game but between FF6 all through FFX, FF8 was the weakest.

Hicken5006d ago

Can't agree with that. VIII is still my favorite, with pretty much every aspect ranking first or second. Story, music, characters, etc.

yokokoroma5006d ago

FF VIII redefined Final Fantasy, the gameplay mechanics of VIII, are the best ever seen in the series, as was the GF's (which I call any summon from FF's after VIII) Eden (greatest GF to ever exist in a FF game) Bahamut, Leviathan, Doomtrain, etc... The limit breaks were (and still are) amazing, especially Squall's and Zell's. FF VIII just offered hours and hours of fun, that kept players on their toes. It also contains one of the hardest bosses in the series, Ultimecia. The way VIII was structured was perfect, and I have yet to see a FF game after it match it.

I never finished it but now I think ill buy it for vita...

Kratoscar20085005d ago

The best FF period, the first one that gave SE the reputation of offering the games with the best graphics and CGs, the first realistic characters in the series, the best FF couple in Squall and Rinoa, the first to not made use of swap pallette monsters and 99% of them being unique in Design, the best Final Battle, the best enemies (The hardest malboro to date), the best GF (Diablo and Eden for the Win) and the best ability system in the Junction System.

Its simply an amazing game.

belac095005d ago

i had a gamesave for ff 8 just before the final boss and my GF saved over it accidently,i am replaying it on the vita and it is seriously the best way to play it, short of an hd remake.

switch only for 7 8 and 9

remake and rebirth ps5

S2Killinit226d ago

7,8,9 only Switch
7 remake & rebirth only PS5?
Is this accurate? Wish it was all for both.

-Foxtrot228d ago

Why can’t they just do a cool classic collection with VII, VIII and IX in with some goodies similar to what they did with the Pixel Remaster.

FinalFantasyFanatic227d ago

I would honestly go for a Remaster Collection, just AI upscale some textures (there are really good fan mods for that), widescreen everything where possible, higher native resolution, etc...

It seems like a no-brainer to make such a large portion of what was FF's golden age into a collection of it's own.

gold_drake226d ago

this is square we're talking about.

VersusDMC227d ago

Weird that 7 and 8 are together for 40 and 9 is 40 on it's own.

8 should be the one on it's own as it actually has redone models.

jznrpg227d ago (Edited 227d ago )

I have ff8 ps4 remastered physical euro version. They should have put these on PS5 physically so lame.

B5R227d ago

I'm actually so tired of hearing about FFIX. Just replayed it with Moguri Mod earlier this month. That might as well be the definitive version.

Broken Games That Never Got Fixed

While a lot (like way too many) games launch in sorry states these days, a lot of them do eventually get polished up over time fixes. The same can’t be said for these properly broken games.

Worst for me is wipeout 2048.
I got gold in every single player race, made it extremely far into the great online shop platinum was a finger away.. then lost all my online progression. Many players experienced the same and hadn’t been fixed since

joab777289d ago

Cyberpunk and No Mans Sky are obviously the 2
best comeback stories. Cyberpunk is literally one of the best RPGs ever made now.

Christopher288d ago

I wouldn't call NMS broken at release, just under-delivered.

Michiel1989289d ago

junctioning is only broken now because it's been datamined which monster which gives which card and which card gives which items and every single spell to junction with the highest points for each stat. For it's time when that info wasn't readily available it was good, not without it's flaws, but not broken,

-Foxtrot289d ago

Exactly. I never got this because what made it broken was the knowledge of what to exploit.

Playing the game for the first time back then you never had any knowledge to make it so easy.

One minute the Junction system is complicated, the next it's super easy / broken. What is it?

gold_drake289d ago

i mean, ff8 is not "broken" per se, its just that the junction system is too good and easily exploited even an hour into the game. haha

Ashunderfire86288d ago

Star Wars Jedi Survivor is one of them. I can’t get in the Cantina bar later on in the game. The door and other doors throughout the environment is locked off. It is a shame, because I wanted to complete the game, but I can’t until they fix it.

Playstation Icons: Squall Leonhart

Gary Green said: Tempting as it is to dedicate our first installment of PlayStation Icons to a franchise-leader like Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, or even Sackboy, instead I’m choosing a character that I, like so many others, connected with on a personal level. He’s a moody, world-weary teen, a proud loner with no time for the drama of others, and yet he’s also a hero just waiting for the motivation to unleash his full potential. He’s a warrior. He’s a leader. He’s the king of internal monologues. It’s time to meet Squall Leonhart.
