ok, i recently bought ff8 and i was like yay i can play it with my gamepad (its the ps2 controller using PS2 to PC adapter :P fun) but i can seem to config the analog stick as the directional buttons, like all the other buttons work excpt for the Dpad and the analog stick!!! btw im using the ff8 demo because my ff8 hasnt come yet. :P is this only a problem on the demo..please say yes and that its fixed in the retail version....oh and please no "just get the ps1 version" -crap , i already bought it and even tho my tv may be beside my computer with the ps2 hooked to it. i liek to watch tv and play so no :P ( lame i know i couldn't think of a better reason, its just i had the game when i was little[8-9] and i got to like disc 3 or 4 where you go out into space and i dont knwo what happened i think i stopped playing or the game got scratched. so please. please say yes this gamepad issue is only on the demo and not the retail PC version. the gampad works with every pc game i have, even the PC version of DMC: special edition i bought for the pc :P which im playing rigth now. so...umm before i drag this on. Help.

Please, if you want anyone to help you, don't type in all lowercase. It gives me a headache to try to read that.

....really. usually its CAPS=BADDD :P either way. i was wondering if someone had gamepad configuration problems in the demo, and if they continued in the retail version.

Usually it's all caps = bad. All lowercase is just as bad.

And I don't know if you'll find anyone here who can help you with that. I think most people here play the Playstation version, or play the PC version using keyboard if they have it. But if anyone knows anything about this, feel free to help out.

Did you go the FF8 Config? That's where I went to configure my gamepad/keyboard buttons. If that doesn't work, then just use the keyboard like I did because I don't have the adapter to use Playstation controllers on my PC.

BTW, this is a good way of typing. Not all caps and not all lowercase. This is what you call "normal" typing.

Or proper grammar/formatting. In other words, exactly the way you'd type something if you were writing it for school, or it was being published in a newspaper or magazine.

Proper grammar makes people look kind of stuck up in my opinion... theres nothing really wrong with it, but i just dont type like that. I mean, i capitalize some stuff and add commas but nothin more really

gl on fixing your problem HyeVltg3.

ya i fixed it lol. sorry for the long reply. ...ok forget it..you posted at 12:39am...thats like a couple of minutes ago lol. but ya i fixed it. (got the retail game this morning) and ya it works, like it looks like its the same problem but it actually reads me moving the joy/analog stick and moves the char. around and if i turn of the analog stick l.e.d. ( for those who know about the ps2 controller, ya the little button between the analogs lol it turn off the stick function and changes it to Dpad) i use Dpad because the analog stick is wayy too sensitive and the halls are har dto manuver through when you can move in all directions because the game is not meant to be played with a stick. :P either way. FIXED.

Proper grammar doesn't make people look "stuck-up." It makes them look they're not completely stupid.

I'm sorry, Corroded, but that's bar-none one of the silliest things I've heard in a long time.

Hmm... Makes them look stuck-up? I don't get that, how can you know if you have never seen them in-person?

And just in case that came off wrong --- I'm not saying that people who don't use perfect grammar/spelling are stupid. CorroDed, I actually don't really mind your typing style.

I'm hardly stuck-up... 15 years of age.
