Doesn't get as much love as 7/9 =/= unpopular.
Also, it took 94th place in VGC's greatest games event last year. IIRC your favourite was 12 right? That was 126th so...

These were the rankings for the following games in the series: VII (2nd), VI (8th), X (11th) , Chrono Trigger (12th), and Final Fantasy IX (32nd.)
Here is the description for Final Fantasy VIII:
"The VGChartz community loves RPGS, there is no denying this. Even a title that many regard as the ‘black sheep’ of the Final Fantasy series has found its way to the top half of the list. Final Fantasy VIII gets much criticism for Square’s decision to discard the much loved Materia system in favor of the Junction battle system. No matter how you feel about the Junction system, there are many people who regard this iteration as the best in the series. Square designed a much more mature aesthetic for this iteration of Final Fantasy and backed the style up with an equally mature and memorable plot. The story and the characters that revolve around it feature the same quality that we all have come to expect from Square. The pre-rendered environments were improved over the previous installment and the summons became more integral in turn-based strategy. Final Fantasy VIII may be a departure from the formula, but the result speaks for itself."

Where are you getting your information from?
VII (21), VI (20), X (40), Chrono Trigger (16) and IX (34) And I don't see any descriptions anywhere. If Smeags had to do a description that long for all 500 games I think he would have went insane by now

Didn't realize there was a new list.
