it was my first final fantasy i ever played, because i didn`t liked back then the lego characters in game in ff7. and for me it is still the best final fantasy, yeah you need time too get into it but if you get into it everything makes sence and works together really really good. i never ever played the original final fantasy 7, i have it now, but i can`t get over the bad character design in it, it takes me out of the imersion everytime i try too play it. i can play everyother ff game but ff7 never ever will be my favorite final fantasy game. the remake is very good but too this day i never finished it, i want too in the future of course. FF8 will allways be my favorite final fantasy game close behind is final fantasy 10 and 10-2, then final fantasy 16 is my third most liked ff game.

Let's be honest... MvC2 has always been around. Especially if you're a fan. I've always had a copy of it. I still have my dreamcast version even though my dreamcast doesn't work, I think it just needs a new disc drive. But I also have an original Xbox copy and of course the 360 one and still have my 360 connected and have played it here and there. I was way more excited for Punisher, Xmen COTA, and Xmen vs SF... A little for marvel vs SF, because we never really had perfect ports of those games on consoles... I had the Playstation 1 versions back in the day that didn't have the tag team feature and Punisher I only played on Mame way back when I played on PC. I think I had the Genesis version, but back then I wasn't into beat em ups like I am now, so I think I traded it/sold it after beating it a few times or so.... Trust me, looking back now, I wish I never traded or sold my games, sport cards, and comics... So I was way more thrilled for these games over MvC2, MvC1, and MSH. I already have those on 360 and to be honest, the 360 port of MvC2 is better, way better than this version that's off the arcade... I don't know why they didn't also include that port... They could have added it as an additional version with the Japan and US versions. I would much rather play that over the version they included... Punisher was the first game I played as soon as I got this and then just been playing the other 3... I haven't even loaded MvC2 yet lol... As for the next collection, I'm mainly looking forward to the CvS 1 and 2 games, I still have those two on dreamcast as well, but since my dreamcast hasn't worked in years upon years, it'll be great to play those again... Plus, MvC2 isn't all that fun when playing online and you just keep running into the same teams over and over. That's how it's been on the 360 and PS3 version that still works. But I guess you can say that for all games. People are just going to use the top characters or teams most of the time... Let's just hope that doesn't discourage new players....

Subjective of course but I still love it and consider if the last true gem of Final Fantasy. I enjoyed FFXII more as adult now than a teen but felt a bit more bogged down with plot and the characters and music weren't as memorable in my opinion. However I loved FFVII as much as anyone but VIII and IX along with X are absolutely some of my favorite games hands down even 25+ years later.

The Punisher game was the first Marvel game made by Capcom, without it there would be no Marvel vs Capcom.

I commonly like to joke that FF8 is a fangame and that Squall should be the one saying "This is my story" instead of Tidus Honestly, I found the story of FF8 really underwhelming, I feel like there was meant to be way more but they probably ran out of time

Emulation is easy enough You could probably run the Dreamcast version on a toaster nowadays

Glad this popped up in my feed. Solid video my guy. Subbed.

Apologies, I wrote the message below before finishing the video. My bad!😂 Why the punisher you ask? Well without it, we wouldn't have our Capcom and Marvel alliance! For you see, marvel would license out their property to other gaming companies, many which have failed or cheap cash grabs. However, with Punisher being experimental title, Capcom was able to show their bravado prove to Marvel that they're in capable hands! Since then, Marvel & Capcom released hit after hit; whether it were on consoles or arcades- a beautiful alliance was forged!!!

Free how? You still have to pay for it and it's the same game.

Love the video. Definitely a throw back. However... @ 24:16 you say Ruby "Rose" instead of Ruby "Heart".

Will: Girafarig, Alakazam, Jynx, Slowking, Xatu Koga: Nidoking, Venomoth, Ariados, Crobat, Muk Bruno: Hitmontop, Poliwrath, Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Steelix Karen: Umbreon, Houndoom, Murkrow, Sneasel, Tyranitar Lance: Aerodactyl, Charizard, Lapras, Gyarados, Rhydon, Dragonite

I’m buying two copies. One digital and one physical. When they decide not to renew the license

The xbox 360 version and matchmaking are still alive and well!

havent watched yet but will be throughout the day. super excited for this one! def my favorite fighting game of all time, cant wait to hear your take on it

Just wanted to say thanks again for all your videos. Its always the perfect thing to watch/listen to when i want to just chill in a cozy blanket of nostalgia and not worry about the lame outside world :p

Dude, you are super underrated. I have been binge watching you the past week or so and I must say your content is superb. I was brought to your channel by the Final Fantasy VIII video. Great stuff man, keep it coming!

_CUZ THEY EARNED IT. BAD GAME_

You complain so much this video is completely a waste of time because of your ranting. Just don’t play it

my most loved FF games. nothing compares it to its relatable characaters, replayability and flexibility of game mechanics. and realistic models. its not a good story and convuluted mess but i loved its weirdness. and compensate for its story. the game is somewhat open world compare to FF7 you can be overpower early in the game if you wanted to end enjoy the story without restrain.

Awesome video

Final Fantasy 8 is one my most favorite JRPG Games and My very first JRPG Game I ever played

To be fair fighting a fire deamon probably would have been easier and less stressful than the A levels 😅

You dont make a RPG game like Final Fantasy into a teen drama story that ages poorly. Which is what happened with FF8 will and has happened with FF15.

You can skip the tutorial you dolt

( insert Bangaas and Mash joke here ) Edit: Bangaas and Marche

But wait if TA is a non-canon dream world, but TA2 is canon... How?

Absolutely loved Tactics Advance when I was growing up Remember trading another game with a kid in junior high for it, great to play the opening in winter time especially

Unfortunate thing about the HD Remasters is the character models are actually worse than the ps2 game because they lost the finished ones from the ps2 in an office fire and never bothered to fix them for the remaster It's the type of thing ehere you might not notice unless you compare them side by side or have played the original a bunch tho Kinda like how Halo MCC was originally built off of the inferior PC port of Halo Combat Evolved, with worse effects and graphics and such, until enough people pointed it out and 343 finally tixed it.

Gen 1 still holds up quite well mostly, and is waaay better than the cruddy gens 7-9. Its funny to think how a game so long ago that does indeed have issues is a MILLION times better than the new games.

Honestly my favorite tied with Tactics when I was kid 8 was easy for me but probably because I loved triple triad all I played the first day after showing selphie around then watching my friends play drawing magic all day I had to show them their futility then they hated it even worse since hours wasted for nothing some fire and scan magic lmfao then they couldn’t figure out junction wondering how the T. rex dies in like 2 hits for me at a lower level with less damage then it felt too advanced for them that 100 death in sta atk inflicted death spell and hated it further lmfao basically dumb people hate this game because they couldn’t follow a tutorial or got mad they couldn’t use magic like tf you need ultima for 3k damage when you have meltdown lol but now in my old age I only replay for story so I mod in 2 pages of ultima and apocalypse for all characters that I also have unlocked

Ppl that say that Enemies scale to your lv is true and false at same time they scale up to lv80 but not beyond that you can out level bosses but won't happen for long time but note if you do this enemies get considerably stronger. Especially boss battles, never been the type to want to speed run and win cheesily at low level I want the bosses to get to their maximum

err we just gonna skip 9?

Apparently the correct pronunciation of Quistis is "Kiss-tis", which sounds stupid.

Any time I play this game, I always make Squall’s ultimate gunblade as early as possible on disc 1. Requires an ass ton of triple triad but it’s so fun to be wielding one of the strongest weapons in the game at least 40 hours before the game intends for you to get it. FF8 is definitely fun in the way that you can approach it in so many ways, even if the story is nonsensical most of the time 😂

i picked all of the starters. I bought a link cable and had my friends hold them while i started multiple files. Dirty i know, but my team at the end was Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur, Raichu , Pidgeot and Gengar.

It's kind of insane how they kept having success while changing up every game so much. I dont like the modern ones but I can respect not just playing it safe.

I never could get into this game. Maybe it would be different these days. I played Final Fantasy 7 for the first time as a kid around 2010 after randomly deciding to download it on PS3 and it quickly became me and my friends favorite single player video game. When we moved on to ff8 we were just confused. The game wasnt what we expected at all.

A claim kinda is a good thing tho... means square has its an eye on this game which kind of eludes to the rumor being true that square has a ff x-3 in the works

Yay! A new retro wars retrospective!

I'm not sure if you liked this game but this was great.

Great video. Absolutely love FF8. My favorites were and always have been the even numbered ones at least for awhile. 4, 6, 8, and 10 are all phenomenal. 7 was big when it came out but i never liked the characters or story...until the remake and now i love it. 9 is absolute garbage trash rubbish though. i will never understand why people suck that game off.

I never played (or saw) Final Fantasy VII. I started with the SNES ones, then got VIII and IX on PS1, and XII on PS2. Quistis is an Instructor, not specifically a teacher. I guess its like a mentor for the younger students. Strange how no character can carry EVERY spell in the game, as they haven't got enough space. You mean DoomTrain? I think that is found, not made... Also, not all GF's have that "press button to boost" option. But, if Odin dies, you get Gilgamesh. Only drawback is he doesn't negate a fight, but randomly shows up sometimes. 14:40 True, it is a make-up test, but I'm sure Quistis would prefer if it was a make-out test...! I junction some Magic, and use the ones that I haven't Junctioned...? Like using Cura and Junctioning Curaga. I usually BLIND the T-Rexaur if I can. Then it's attacks are pretty much useless... When putting the T-Rexaur to Sleep, have Quistis hit FIRST, then Squall puts it to Sleep. Every turn is that easy? Bad guy turns out not to be the bad guy, and there's a worse one. Typical RPG "plot twist" right there! I usually call the Griever Ring, ImDead or Myself. So Ultimecia says "I will junction myself to myself". That is not Earth, by the way. In that universe, maybe the Moon and the Planet have similar atmospheres...? The Barriers on all the cities/places on disk 4, I just assumed Ultimecia did that so you cant get any items. Funny, Ellone is Squall's cousin via Raine, but Raine adopted her, so that's more like half-sister too. Crazy stuff. Favourite track? "The Man With The MachineGun", It was my ringtone, now it's my alarm in the morning... Remaking this would ruin it. Just make a version (the same game) that runs on modern Consoles/PCs. The Baharm Garden? You mean Balamb, right? Not sure you are pronouncing that right. Final Fantasy 2? That's not REAL Final Fantasy 2 though, is it? We didn't get that one... That card game is terrible but optional, the one in FF IX is worse as it's MANDATORY at some point to play! The only thing most guys like about Tifa isn't her fighting skill...Let's be honest, it's her boobs. Battle Royale, yeah, they are by far the superior films. Hunger Games pale by comparison.

having odin in the late game does not really make a difference. but not seeing cifer interact with him does make a difference for me :)
