Final Fantasy 8 was viewed as a huge letdown gameplay-wise and is generally considered the worst on Playstation from what I've seen. So it was interesting to see more than one or two people mention it in this thread, in sequence. Personally I would rate IX, VI, IV, X, V and VII above it. Nevertheless, the game gets hate for its broken gameplay mechanics, realistic style, and drab story.


I strongly disagree about the last part. The gameplay is addictive, the story is superb - with some questionable plot devices here and there - and the style had...well, pardon me for the repetition here, style.

Wright knows! Best gameplay/story there has ever been in an FF game. And the realistic style was fantastic. The artstyle of 9 was a huge let down after 8.

Final Fantasy should have some semblance of Fantasy. I like the blend of realistic and fantasy elements XV is going for, didn't like it so much in VIII.
