Since I've played my first FF (FFX) and completed it I wanted to play them all to catch up with all I missed. I heard bad comments of FFVIII because of the junction system and all. I've begun to play it two days ago and I can't stop! That game is GREAT! Squall is so cool, the story is top notch and the junction system is not that bad. Its quite unnusual but I kinda like it. And I love the mission where you got to capture a president in a train. Really I was surprised. Im at the second disc, after killing Norg... It is fantastic!

Yeah, i gotta admit i have a soft spot for FFVIII. I truly love the junction system and becaise you had to stock up it was a treat to fight in even awkward battles. Great game, i love it.

The game have truly surprised me, with all the bad comments I heard...

Yeah, the game got bad comments because "it's not final fantasy VII"... That annoys me, Final fantasy VIII rulez!!

I'm glad you liked the game. FFVIII is my favorite!

the part where you trap the sorceress and fight her for the first time is really amazing!

General praise, or lack of praise for the game, as the case may be, goes in the pinned topic "What Makes FFVIII Stand / Fall" --- thanks.
