Well, this thread is... incoherent.
Doesn't follow the same "format"? So basically what you're saying, is that all FF's should be the same? What an absurd notion. The series would plummet if every game they released was the same. FFVIII broke away from what we were accustomed to because 'different' is good. Sure, the GF's consume a lot of the battles, and the magic system is completely altered... doesn't mean to say it's undeserving of the title it has.

Final Fantasy VIII fully deserves its status as a Main Final Fantasy Game.
I think you may be confusing the fact that some people who hate VIII, feel that the game should not have been labeled a Final Fantasy at all, but to say that it doesn't belong as main title, makes absolutely no sense at all.

It is an FF title after all, but I was severely dissapointed that FFVIII lacked the cliche aspects that make me love the series.

There are only 2 games I feel that shouldn't have been part of the main series.
Final Fantasy XI. FF is always different in every game but this was an MMORPG and I feel that it should have just been a spin off title rather than apart of the main series.
Final Fantasy XII. This game just FFT to me. The world, the races, some designs (Most notably Moogles), The Judges, summons that have appeared in FFT. I would have probably appreciated this game more as a Final Fantasy Tactics game rather than a Final Fantasy game.
As for FFVIII? I think it does deserve to be there. The only thing I can think of that took a massive change in direction was no MP for magic.

I have no idea why it wouldn't be considered part of the main series. Whoever says that is clearly a little messed in the head. Not like it matters really though, FF8 is a good game, regardless of wheter it has the FF title or not

Me either, I mean, all Final Fantasies are what they are, games that have the same theme but different looks.
But, as your saying, judging by the format, then maybe we should take out X and XI as well, the latter being because it was online and no other Final Fantasy before that was online either.
FF is meant to be different at each stage.
It's the theme that makes FF an FF.

They are all main titles. Final Fantasy XI is the only one that's even remotely arguable since it was in such a different format. All the games though are still Final Fantasy. Ones that are NOT part of the main series are games like Final Fantasy: Tactics, Dirge of Cerberus, Final Fantasy X-2, etc... because they are spin-offs or unique ideas based on the main series games.

Every FF game is a part of the main series its just sum are radically different from others XI bein an example.
