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.

If anything, the old games will show up on the Playstation Network. Why? Cause I think technically Sony owned the publishing rights to FF7 and maybe 8. Don't take me seriously on that. May have just been something I heard.

Also, FF7 would be the more likely candidate for a remake. Bigger and more loyal fan-base then FF8. Plus, they already re-did FF7's opening. Why start a new one?

But seriously, a remake would be soooo awesome. I might actually try to defeat it's cheap-a** boss with cheap-a** tactics

I too agree with Judge Rulia.

however i wouldnt say no to just a simple remake - just no to a compilation - i mean who wants the screaming fangirls for VIII that theyve got from VII by making AC and stuff?

I don't think that it would be made, well not before FFVII anyway. It just wasn't as popular as VII but it would be nice to see a remake of VIII since I did find it to be a fun game

I'd like to see a remake, but the monsters don't level up with you then it would be a great game.

I agree. That was a bummer because by the third disc they were whipping ass.

But really, I would love 7 and 8.

How do people hate that the monsters level up with you?(I'm not meaning to offend anyone, but... Here goes...) If you really hate it that much, buy a gameshark and kill everything with Squall. 'Cause all you're really saying there is : "I want to rush through the game and finish it without even really getting a chance to admire the sophistication of the battle system." The strong monsters are meant as a challenge to your skills. You have to go through arduous battles for anything good. It wouldn't be any fun if you could kill eveything in less than 3 minutes, now would it? That would be a bitter taste of victory that really sucks.

But all of that's what the point is not. The point's that's there ain't no romance 'round there.

Off topic, but meh for now.

I agree with you. While I complain about it, everytime I play the game I spend almost 50 hours just leveling up my characters and fighting everything I come across. Its time consuming sure, but I do love it. T-rexaur=fun always imo.

And I have never owned a gameshark or anything that even resembles one.

Lol... I'm sure its pretty obvious that I'd like to see it remade.

Some things that I'd like to see would be...

- Voice Acting. (English voice acting as used in XII)

- A complete overhaul of the graphics (don't just port the game over for the newer hardware)

- Add a lot more in depth story and playtime with Laguna and Co, including Raine & Ellone.

- I liked the Draw and Junction system, but, I wouldn't object to seeing it updated or completely changed.

- Finally, if SE ever decided to remake VIII, I would only hope that they don't change the story line at all, not that they couldn't add to the story to explain and settle some long winded debates, but just leave the main story as is.

Very true, but you can't select your own level of difficulty. Like for example people can't challenge each other to see who completes it at the lowest level. Ain't one of the main things with a RPG to develop your characters. I think there is no developing here because you can finish the game at any level. Anyway thats just what i think....
