| 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. |

I think the drawing system detracted alot from the game. I spent waaaaay too much time using draw over and over on enemies so I can junction it accordingly. It's a shame that they followed up the materia system (IMO the best system to date) with this.

FFVIII was my least favorite of the series, but I still Love the game. It's just not as high on my favoites list as the many others.
My main complaint was the lack of character connection between myself and the main ones in the game. I jsut kinda played through it, waiting to get to the end as soon as I could, because there was no attachment to the characters emotional-wise.
I did love the whole GF system and how they learned abilites though. That definitely was a major plus in the game.

Ahh, the GF boost. You know, when you summon a GF, you can boost their attacks by pressing (I kinda forgot) square and start or select...? Well anyway, when I press rapidly on the square button WHILE the icon that indicates "don't press", the whole thing starts over...and that ticks me off. 
But overall, I genuinely love this game.

It was holding down select, while bashing square. I found the boost system quite good. Although at first it hurt like hell and pissed me off when I accidentally press the button when it told me not to, but now not so much and I can do it more. The boosting system has helped train my thumb to withstand a lot. There have been game that I have played that you need to press some buttons very fast and thanks to ff8, my thumbs don't hurt for a long time. (One of the down sides of me doing the button bashing, is that I look like a bloke wanking lol) |

I Agree with you 100 percent there - apart from where you said it was a good game - those annoying little glitches spoiled the hell outta FF8 for me.

Ah now that I think about it, the whole connection between the real world and Lunatic Pandora and back and forth really confused the hell outta me at first too. I think a better explanation in the game would have done quite nicely. I mean I understand a lot of it now, but when I first played through it, it was a major "WTF?" moment for me.
