As High-Definition televisions become the norm, the twelve year-old DVD and its low-resolution footage finds itself unwelcome in most living rooms. The rise of two rival technologies vying to fill the void for distribution of high-definition video sparked the most published tech war in recent memory.
It was a long and hard fought war, with casualties on either side (remember the Xbox 360 HD-DVD Drive that now retails for pocket change?). With over 25 gigabytes of storage available on a single-layer disk, it wasn't too surprising that Blu-ray trounced its less endowed rival. Being a technology coming out of secret Sony research lab, the inclusion of a Blu-ray disk drive on the Sony Playstation 3 and its resultant popularity played a crucial role in solidifying the Blu-ray camp.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
