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.

HELL NO! Final Fantasy 8 is easily the most disputed game of the series. You either love it or you hate it. There is NO WAY this should ever be remade. They should buy back all the original copies and burn them... but that's about the only thing they should do with anything FFVIII related. The game was horrible. I think you should be dragged into a dark street and beaten to death with a wet noodle if you even remotely thought this game was worth one playthrough, yet alone the time and effort to have it remade.

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

- 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.
I think we are going to be good friends.

I wouldn't want to them to change anything on the story either, but instead just add more to it and go more in depth in things. Definately no deleting though...

and wow...I would love some voice overs.

I hope they give Squall a lisp... lol I do like voiceacting in game... but I hope they don't try and make Squall cool when it's so obvious he's such a limp-wristed pansie. Ugh... that'd tick me off so bad if they tried to make him into a Steven Segal when he's more of a Richard Simmons wannabe.

Lol, I picture Squall having just a emotionless flat voice...especially on his "Whatever..." lines. Heheh.

But Seifer, he gets an awesome voice, like a Hugh Jackman voice.

Aside from the overhauled graphics, the voice overs would be one of the single most important things on my list. I think it would be cool to hear a voice placed with my favorite VIII characters, but then again, it could be bad depending on who does the voice acting Lol...

Anyway, like I said above. If they use true English acting voice overs as they did in XII, all will be good.

But I agree with Bei Bei, we'll see a FFVII remake well before an VIII. That's if we'll see one at all... I really hope we see both *crosses fingers*

Who would do Laguna's voice? Stevie Blum is too creepy to do it.

This game isn't popular enough the be remade. Hell, they haven't even remade VII yet!

So I doubt it will ever happen, and personally I don't want them too. They'll probably feel the need to change things and add pointless as I am afraid they will do with a VII remake.

Aztec, I've learned something today; I disagree with about 95% of the crap you say.

Uhh... Not really sure it should be made. Hell I love FFVIII, but there is nothing left to the story (unlike FFVII). Though I think a game based on the Gardens would totally kick ass -- maybe a MMPORGP (sp?) will be good? Nah... That's too much. But a game based on it will be kewl.
