After waiting what feels like an age for a re-release or decent port of Final Fantasy8, Final Fantasy 8 Remastered is almost upon us! What's cool though, is that it features a whole host of changes compared to the original game and perhaps the most obvious is the spruced up graphics.

Outside of that Final Fantasy 8 Remastered gameplay has been tweaked, with loads of modifications and new animations and it means that the comparison versus the original game may feel quite stark.

  • We're beyond excited to play Final Fantasy 8 all over again... so much nostalgia! We hope you guys enjoyed the video - how many of you are intending to pick the game up on the 3rd Sept? (which is coincidentally Darryl's birthday, so thanks for the nice birthday present Square Enix!)

    My first Final Fantasy. Holds a very special place in my gamer heart.
  • Final Fantasy 8 came out when I was 12 years old. I was having reading difficulties and this game pretty much cured them.
  • @Alex_Barbosa
    We really need a Legend of Dragoon Remake. That game is criminally unknown.
  • @TheAllPapa
    The FF series has incredible music but FF8s score was just unforgettable and amazing
  • @SyCannon
    FF8 is my most beloved entry of all the FF games. The story was extremely touching, the music score was beautiful and the characters were all relatable. Now as an adult I’m so excited to replay this game and enjoy it again! This channel has brought back some old feels from when I was young, thank you!
  • @jpxboxdstation
    i love this game so much, its my favorite FF game, my wife and i even recreate the dance scene during our weddiing waltz, and i pay a jewler to make an exact replica of the squall's ring that i use all the time. thank you for this video men
  • @supescape6323
    FF8 would really benefit from a remake...according to Nojima there wasn't enough time to implement the last 35-40% of the story. Also re-imagined Junction System, more lore, new activites, expanded areas, etc.
  • It's been 20 years now. I was 11. I have a copy, but over the years I lost my memory card, my playstation broke. I'd never thought I'd see it or play it again. And with them saying they lost the source code I was devastated. Last night I found the pre order for the remastered. And man I watched it 4 times. I been crying non stop all day... It's been 20 years. Thank you for this awsome video. Sums it all up

    The most important thing for me was the complete overhaul of the backgrounds. Thanks squenix for going the extra mile not just remaster the polygon characters. Thanks!! :D No wait, they were lazy again.
  • @Tigerbro6
    I really hate that they used the dissidia models for the faces. they clash SO MUCH with the FMVs. really wish they'd be a bit more faithful to the old design.
  • "It had a great cast of characters" Shows the scene where Selphie tumbles down a small hill. Yeah, she's a great character, that's for sure.
  • The original soundtrack is basically the thing that confirmed my purchase on this. Can't wait to play it on Nintendo Switch.
  • @xuansonhapo1234
    Ah, the track when Ellone was a kid in that peaceful town. So much nostalgia...
  • I'm SUPER excited to finally play this game. This was included on a demo disk I had when I was a kid, and now I finally get to experience the full game :D
  • For some reason I never played this game when released, would you say without any nostalgia the game is worth giving a shot?
  • @imaginator85
    One of my favorite games ever and a total overload of nostalgia for my teenage years and growing up. My wife and I even played Eyes On Me at our wedding. 🙂 Yeah, it would be great if they had done more with the backgrounds and whatnot but I'll take it in any form I can get! I was cleaning out under my stairs a few days ago and just so happened to find my old FF8 PS1 strategy guide. Lol. Can't wait for Tuesday!!!

    A friend of mine no doubt is going nuts over the fact that this game is getting a remaster. Squall's his favorite character and FF8's his favorite game I'm just glad this gives me a chance to actually play the game again. I never did see it through all the way to the end
