I really don't have a WII. I had a brick game I played when I was a child until 14 years old I stopped playing.

So I have been replaying FF8 the last few weeks and I am now on Disc 2, right after the concert has taken place.
I can proudly say that I don't hate this game like I thought I did. I've been having quite the good time playing it actually. Although I still haven't gotten to the lame orphanage twist yet.

it is a mystery wrote: I just replayed the game over the last few months and found it a lot more enjoyable too. Modding cards instead of having to draw all those spells sure helped. Is it on the level of FF7 or FF12? No way. But was enjoyable this play through. :) Although the orphanage plot twist will always be the worst plot twist ever in my eyes. :) |

It is very enjoyable but no it does not rank up there with FF 7 or even 12. Which were my 2 favorite too. Following the game closely using an online guide
helps.
So I have been thinking lately of updating this thread. Top 20 Super Nintendo or N64 games? Hmmmmm |

Disc 3 is where the game starts sucking. And not just regular sucking, it starts sucking hard.

The card game is the worst thing about FF8. I don't even bother playing it.

I find the card game really fun and stuff, but then I start playing cards and I forget that I didn't save in a while and somehow the computer rips me off
and I lose and they always take one of my summon or character cards.

The Purple Parrot wrote: On the contrary, I thought disc 3 was around where it started to pick up. Aside from the whole "Oh, I was possessed the whole game by this other random sorceress" thing. Plot clearly wasn't FF8's strong point. 
This last playthrough I got every single card for the first time ever. Yay! :) Even did that annoying Card Queen quest all the way through. Once I eliminated the random rule at Dollet, it was a breeze. |

I thought the first two discs were definitely the most fun. Disc 3 was still good but had a somber feel about it with how serious the plot was getting.
I know right? But sometimes when you challenge them again, they'll play the card they took from you so if you win, you can get it back.

I liked the fact that the plot actually started going where and was more serious with disc 3. I loved the part with them going out to space. It was a very
quick disc though compared to the other two.
I know right? Its pretty much all you do with the Queen of Cards quest. Lose a rare card to her so she'll move somewhere you want, then lose another rare card to her so she'll make a new rare card, then chase her all around the world to get your cards back.

You actually don't have to do the Queen of Cards quest, I think. It's really hard to find since you can't see it, but you go can go to one of the
random islands that's somewhere around Esthar and walk around until suddenly the screen will change and you'll be in this area where the space shuttle
landed. The Queen of Cards will be there with all her rare cards. *thanks the walkthrough he has for that* >_>
ETA - The card quest in Balamb Garden to challenge the "King" IMO was a really fun sidequest, contrary to that one.  <3

True story: I once replayed FF8 for the sole purpose of Triple Triad cuz I was so addicted.
That and it's not necessary to train at all. God I love
that game <3
