Final Fantasy VIII The first game in the series to consistently use realistically proportioned characters, FF8 also threw more of a futuristic mix into the old (Hi-)potion that is Final Fantasy.

Well i never did end up finishing all of FF8 but i remember when i played it, I ran from the Spider and never defeated it. I would fight it for as long as i could but then i would be losing so i just escaped. I always just figured that's what you were suppose to do. I usually follow walkthroughs to get everything and it said to run from the battle so i did.

I didn't know you can actually blow it up. o.o Interesting. Well, in that case, I'm still glad I didn't blow it up anyway. FMV is more important that SeeD points. xD

I killed it.

And when I realized it got rid of my FAVORITE SCENE IN THE GAME, I restarted it and didn't kill it, haha.

Well you can still get all the bonuses for killing it without making it blow up. so there is really no point in doing so. just beat it down enough and you got all the AP and SeeD points you need.

Pah, I've had like 14 different files on FF8, and not once did I beat that spider. I thought about doing it a couple times, but I never liked prolonging the beginning of the game just because of how epic it was. The best I ever did was running into it 0 times after that required encounter at the tower... took a lot of new games to do that though, since I was usually satisfied with just fighting him a couple additional times. xD

I always defeat it on the bridge. I tend to be able to get 100 points in everything except for the one which goes down as you lose time getting back to the Beach. For this I make it up by defeating the spider and getting the 100 bonus points. It's really not difficult, just whore Quezacotle constantly.
