The music of FFVIII is some of the best FF music in the series

I think almost all the songs are memorable

Best opening theme and probably the best vocal theme as well, pretty much where the vocal theme songs started.

100%.

And some of the visuals and moments of gameplay wouldn't have landed as well without the soundtrack to go with it.

-Foxtrot173d ago

Totally

Opening - Liberi Fatali
The Raid on Dollet - The Landing
Ballroom Scene - Waltz for the Moon
Boss Battle - Premonition
Squalls Speech - The Oath
Triple Triad - Shuffle or Boogie

So on and on

Can't agree more buddy. I still listen to the Man with the Machine gun on my music app.

got_dam173d ago

Blue fields is the song that comes to mind very time I think of this game.

Snookies12172d ago

Too many good songs in this game! The Extreme, Legendary Beast, Man With a Machine Gun, Force Your Way are all masterpieces just to name a few. Love the crystal caves track in Esthar too, don't recall the name of that song though...

Hopefully doesn’t take them a complete gen to release it

Good. Something not boring, not one of those "make your own game" crap and also on Steam would be nice.

I too like to look for things in the wrong places.

"the capital group of PCF Group S.A."

If you're getting funding from a group that needs two different ways of Acronyming itself, things will not go the way you want them to.

If it was more online-only crap then good riddance.

jjb198121h ago

Outriders was crap. They slapped that game together and threw in a loot system to get players' attention. This game was absolutely jank and the always online nonsense made it stutter like crazy. People Can't Optimize.

thorstein20h ago

I liked Outriders but I could see where the artistic vision was compromised. The way the industry is now, it wouldn't surprise me that upper management would scrap something that didn't pull in money via gaas, mts, or other means.

Escape from Tarkov Unheard Edition Reneges on Promised Content Behind $250 Price Tag

The new Escape from Tarkov Unheard Edition has the community in an outrage after promising exclusive access to the new PvE mode for $250 USD.

$250? Do they not know all the other games that already exist or will be made in the future that can do similar?

SimpleDad1d 2h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

This is for the hardcore people that have 2500 h in the game. They basically play that one game the whole year.
Oh and those same people are mad as hell at this... what a way to reward fans of your game and annihilate newcomers.

Read a comment earlier calling it a "special monetization operation." I had to chuckle at that.
