Should there i know it wasn't as popular as ff7 but still it was still a good game. Give me your thoughts on this. Thxs

maybe if squall was like a teacher or somthing teaching some new seeD students or somthing maybe. and sifer should be in it. but as for a story im dont have any ideas.

Truthmaker · Jan 31 2008, 09:05 PM

Yeh i was thinking along the lines of maybe just showing what happned after you see that video at the end showing what happended to everyone if they went there different ways or stayed together. That would be cool but i have no ideas haha but i think it would be cool if they did something

Its fine the way it is mk.

Truthmaker · Jan 31 2008, 10:11 PM

i guess so but it would be nice to see something. I'm just a big fan of 8 so it would be cool to them do the same thing as they did to ff7.

I'd prefer a remake provided it were done properly. I am struggling to think of any possible storylines based on anything already in the game (none of that making new stuff up and pretending it was always there crap) beyond further exploring Laguna's story or maybe some random game where you have a party of SeeDs and go on missions. I like where the game ended so I don't want them to try and expand on that in a movie.

I don't know about a movie for 8 like AC but I do want a remake of it with voice actors and better graphics....

Same here. Actually playing as a SeeD group would be pretty neat, but they would probably make it for JP Mobile Phones just to piss us off. But yeah, if they were to make anything related to FF8 it should be a spin-off, a remake or a prequel. A sequel just.... wouldn't work >.<

I would like to see a remake see how it would look on the ps3

It would be cool to see a remake, but I don't know if I trust them to make just a remake, without them changing things all up and ruining the story.

BUTTCHEEKIES, OOH · Apr 08 2008, 11:27 PM

How about nay.

VIII actually had a decent and proper closure. And it should stay that.

I'm just, a little irritable about creating yet another wankfest.

It would be nice if they did make a movie.However sometimes it's best to leave great games alone instead of making $hitty game movies just to make money.

I would support it..if it stayed close to the story as possible.

It would be great to see a remake on the PS3.Yet I could imagine it happening for FF7 and not for eight.Since FF7 is much more popluar I guess.

Kätharina · May 22 2008, 12:20 PM

Not another fucking 'omg remake speculationz' thread.

VIII finished how it intended to. I don't think it's should be another revamped piece off bullshit, flying off movies, prequels and sequels.
Just no.

GrimReaperXIII · May 22 2008, 03:23 PM

I would love all to buy all of the crap released in the name of FFVIII. Movies, sequals, prequals, spin-offs, limited edition shiny stuff, etc.

As long as it's released near me, and I don't have to travel to JP to get in, I will buy it. FFVIII remains one of my favourite games among all times.

Naunen · May 22 2008, 11:59 PM

Final Fantasy VIII is as finished as it gets though people who don't even use their brains to put together things wouldn't think so. No remake whatsoever for me. It's just a cheap more-weirded-up intended imitation of an Amano Final Fantasy game. No sequels either.
I can't say much about VII. It's not my favourite but I'd say an anime would suit it (with Cloud and his hair and all). It looks strange since his hair in VII was longer than in AC.

Strifer · May 23 2008, 07:52 AM

Oh Yeah. Absolutely

I would love to see a remake

FF8 is maybe my favourite of the series. But I don't think a sequel could work. The story would be forced, I think... But a prequel could do, if the protagonist was Laguna! I miss his leg cramps...

yeah the leg cramps where lols, i think u right about the prequel as there r so many gaps in lagunas story.

FFVIII is by far my favourite so I'd love a remake. I doubt it will happen, but sequel wise, there were actually a few loose ends they could probably work with;

- Rinoa's a Sorceress and her boyfriend's the Commander of a military faction set to kill all sorceress'. Rebellion, anyone?

- The way people normally control the Lunar Cry went totally wrong, so now there's monsters everywhere.
-They could draw something from the fact that SeeD is a school that teaches kids to kill. Just think of the psycological horror that could be implimented from that.

And if all else fails they could just pull something completely random out of their arses like they did for Advent Children. Well, it'll never happen anyway

A remake's more likely, though. I bet that SE will eventually remake the first 9 games. In, like, 10 years or something, but eventually...
