of course it is! unless you dont have the brains to figure out the junction system...*grumblenoobsgrumble*

the card game was tons of fun and the sidequests are good time-passers.

The game is defently worth getting!
the cinematics are awsome. and overall great story.
towards the end it got a lil bit tough, but was very rewarding

a must have!

I think this game has the best musical scores of any final fantasy game on the market today and would definitely recommend it to anybody considering it. The story line is also much deeper and more interesting than most final fantasy games. This game gets an 8/5.

Well I don't really hold anything against Rinoa.....she was ok, but I can see why so many would get annoyed with her. I admired that she was willing to do whatever it took for what she believed in, but that's about it haha.

Anyway on topic, yes this game does have a wonderful music score. Probably my favorite as well. It's the only one I have the soundtrack to, at least.

Ive been playinf final fantasy 8 for around two years now and still agree its the best of the series.

ok the whole magic systems wierd, but give it time and everything 2nd nature.

im now mid way through my 2nd *no junction* challenge and have completed a no level up challenge, all without walkthroughs

i guess my next challenge will be to merge the two :/

sounds possible...

Ok, If you have played the newer final fantasies and then buy 8 it is goin to be a bit of a difference for you. The graphics are not quite half as good but the real life mode as i like to call it certainly does make up for it.

The story is what does it for me though. I love the story of this game to be honest and thats what makes it one of my favourites.

But to be honest i would like to see spuare release final fantasy 8 on to the ps3. it would prob sell quite well.

I'd say the game is definitely worth getting. The junction system allows for greater customization options than other Final Fantasies and it has a great story with superb cinematics and music to boot. It is definitely worth a try that's for sure.

Definitely. The game is simply spectacular. As everyone already said - the cinematics are amazing, the storyline is superb, the gameplay is unique, and the music is astounding. Not much else to say, 'cept go and find the game if you haven't played it yet.
