This is the beautiful Parade Scene (extended version) with the song "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec" played along with it (which is originally played with the scene, but a shorter version). I compiled several of the scenes to make this video. Final Fantasy VIII is my favorite Final Fantasy out of them all, hands down. Enjoy!
This, for me, is one of the few instances in gaming where the portrayal transcends the genre and becomes art.
Also like Cowboy Bebop ;)
Yeah, I agree along with Halo 2's "Return to Sender" cutscene feels the same when Master Chief flew into the Day of Jubilation (Covenant Assault Carrier) and blew it up with the Covenant anti-matter charge meant to destroy Cairo Station. The Halo 2 Anniversary version of the same scene is masterfully done too from back in 2014.
Goddamn Squall is such a cool main character. I cannot understand how some people don't like him!
I'll choose him over Cloud ANY DAY!! He's my main in Dissidia. At least under in his party no one died. LIONHEART FTW!!
@@GunbladeRevolver EXACTLY !!!
Exactly !!
Yeah, well, whatever...
Because we prefer Laguna, plus squall is moody all the time for no reason.
Edea is so well conceptualized and designed. I wish there were more villains as cool as her.
The parade scene always gives me goosebumps. dat music
I remember being a little kid and watching my brother play this game and this was possibly my favorite scene in the entire game.
I love the fact that they are doing the Thriller dance
this game had pretty amazing cg for its time
Depends. By video games standards? Wholeheartedly agree.
Overall? Nah, Disney Pixar had already several movies with much better half a decade earlier.
This song MADE this scene epic, hands down.
FF8, my fave FF ever created.
+sobekflakmonkey Me too :) it's too bad square doesn't give too much recognition to this beautiful game.. they always pay attention to FF7, they made a movie, spin offs, prequel, now a PS4 remake ( i think)..
Still doing the ps4 remake so isn't made right now :P
@@Solidude but now ff8 is getting remastered😊
@@hungryhungryhippo9891 we want a remake, just like FF7 😢
@@sikretp NO we don't, FF7 remake just has graphics but it is so bad and dull turned into an action game pressing only 1 button...
At this point just play a mod it will be way better
i used to be a SeeD...then i took an icicle to the chest
this is the best scene in the game
I love how all the cool characters, Seifer, Squall, Rinoa, Irvine are up above in the excitement, while the dumb ones are down below in the sewer!
Those are all weird ways of spelling Quistis
Hey! I liked Zell and Selphie!

Favorite series of events in any video game. And I play video games constantlllyyyyy
No parade held for an evil sorceress would be complete without a troupe of demonic river dancers.
A ritualistic parade after dark, that begins with the leader phasing through a wall like nurarihyon, delivering a speech berating the public for gathering to worship a literal monster, unceremoniously executing a head of state in the middle of it when he dared to question her, then summoning eldritch abominations for a sparagmos-like sacrificial mauling of the one person who tried to stop her, followed by cultists engaging in ecstatic dancing as they ritually chant a meaningless nonce phrase that's an anagram of the word "love" and the phrase "succession of witches", while their murderous leader is perched atop a golden throne, glowing in the firelight from fireworks being set off at random throughout the city, a terrorist who was supposed to have been executed grinning proudly at her side.
This is a horror set piece full of allusions to hyakki yagyou, the night parade of a hundred monsters. I didn't understand all those references the first time I played the game - when I was roughly the same age as the main characters, but I definitely do now!
2:48 squall: "dam'n forgot the headlights"
Anyone noticed that Irvine and Squall's position is the merry-go-round which would put them in front of the float for Irvine to take the shot. When Edea's float goes under the arc and gets caged you can see the shot being taken she she blocks it from the front. Then you see Squall jumping down to commandeer a car and he slams into the gates BEHIND the float?
it's mind fuckery at it's finest
I love how you put in all that effort and it turns out an unmitigated disaster, serving to prove that Edea has the power of awesome on her side. Hottest FF villain yet!
If you watch the very beginning before the gates open the first time you see Squall and Irvine holding hands at the back of the crowd.
that was 1 COLD way to go!
best ff ever
yes a scene with the original music hate those dubbed scenes thanks for posting!
woaaaah love it, love it, love it!
this music, edea... epic =D
Melhor sequencia de CG no 1° CD
Squall kicks so mach ass in this scene XD
@Cjdamon042 Actually, Edea IS facing the right was. When the parade leaves the clock tower, it turns left and goes around the block. You can see it at about 0:55. After going around the block there, Edea would be facing the clock tower from the gates.
The better question is how Squall ends up BEHIND the parade. It's been a long time since I've played this, but I remember the last time we see Squall, he's on the second floor of the clock tower rescuing Rinoa, which would make him in front.
I LOVE FF8!! :)
Rinoa's cry was did very good.. =) The first time, I was sure ear it...
i like how he just sprints to the the car and peaces the fuck out like its nothing.
EPIC!!!
This is the part where my game froze and I never got to play past it. :(
I think some people may have actually thought it's about Laguna from that point onwards, since you start disc 2 with him :)
I'm just saying that's it's kind of symbolic that the Seed hunt begins after this scene even though they've done nothing wrong.
It's not unlike the events of world war 2 and game creators often like to replay real world events in their games.
I know Seifer's not a bad guy. He's just tired of losing out to Squall and wants to be a hero, unluckily for him that means being the bad guy for a while.
How nice would it be if they "remade" this game to update the graphics and add actual voice-over BUT kept everything else from the gameplay mechanics, the camera angles (yes, the static camera), etc.? I wouldn't care what system they put it on...if I don't have it, I'll get it just so I can play the update FF8. To this day, I still consider this the most epic game I've ever played.
ALL HAIL THE SORCERESS!!!
woah! i just noticed that they were kinda doing the thriller dance!
i love ff8!
Thriller.
epic
I do love this game and these scenes are epic, but you would think that they'd realise that Edea was facing the wrong way. Irvine wouldn't be able to hit Edea from the clock tower since the back of the vehicle was in the way.
you got it my friend, when i was a kid, i didn't noticed it the first time i played it, but as a played it many times, just started noticing it, its totally wrong
@mailchibi88
Well, the dance is actually based off of "Thriller."
King Joffrey will grow up to be Seifer.
They actually are, it was sort of an easter egg. C:
Song? =S
still don't understand why people continue to celebrate after Edea's speech about they all f*cked up now big time
oh yes, and if you notice, Edea's cart were turned BACK side to the point where Irvin shoots from
I don't think Square screwed this and did it on purpose (like all FF games is just some kind of dream or something)
Well, then you must have forgotten which disc Aerith died in
@Residentevil31313 its ice...
thumbs up if ur watching this in 2012
2023 but close enough right?
00:38
SquareSoft apparently hired Michael Jackson to help with the coreography
its funny i got every guardian force in this game except for the doom train one.
man ff8 is such a great game but i mean why did edea have to try and kill squall with blizzara i mean co'mom who would do that to a guy
0:38 Thriller?
Weird dances in FF-land...
that Michael Jackson's Thriller dance...
Squall Drives like me lol
that's cute
Squall is dead theory any1?
Cd 1
im not making fun of this but it sound like kefka`s theme well (1/2)%
I love this scene and this game, i have to admit thio, the one downside to this game is the incredibly broken gameplay that is very easy to exploit. Storywise tho, it's one of the absolute best.
end of cd 2 :D
the masked dancers are performing the dance moves from Michael Jackson's "Thriller" music video
no jks
You should never play FF2.
They are not! You fanatics need to get a life already and let the man rest at peace.
This song played at Obama's inauguration parade. XDDDD /watch?v=PdscHLVlI24
the only thing i would say is that they are all under some kind of spell, just a guess lol
I think the game creators were making a Hitler reference with Seifer in this scene. His name sounds german, he's the perfect example of an "arian" (blonde hair blue eyes), and that thing he did with his sword was just like Hitler's salute.
these graphics aged so well.
btw im strangley attracted to da dancers
ff8 is like parasite eve but like i cry alot and wish i had more ff ....
當初這段非常震撼,我最愛的FF音樂
3:47
Despite PS1 era FF cutscenes being "silent", I could legit hear Rinoa's cry there.
Watching the some of those segments without Squall and Irvive felt weird, lol
Especially the part where Irvine attempt to snipe Edea. Lol @ the bullet appearing out of nowhere XD
Ich wollte immer lieber Cifer sein, weil ich mir dachte dass ihn Edea sicher mal drüber lassen würde, als Lohn für seine Dienste
For spoiler context, these are cutscenes from FF8 for an assassination attempt made by the main character on the sorceress Edea during a festival on a parade float which she travels on through the city and trying to ambush her float beneath an overpass area to shoot her (which fails and end up having to fight her)
when i play ff8 ~ and saw this at the first time!! i have to save exit and reply to save it!! that entrance music of this parade was epic!!
i think this song and dark messenger are best boss theme!!!
We brought you, we made you, we taught you, we'll exterminate you
Non of you young fuckers and bitches can dance or are better than this...Ok STFU and sit down and learn
Those dancers were goin' in tho
Scary..when we want to shoot the sorceress.
OG
Please Square Enix give Final Fantasy 8 The Final Fantasy 7 Remake treatment! I want to see Ultimecia in HD Glory!
He died during the parade and the rest is only a dream/fantasy.
Always nice to see old videos of favourite games.
Ok, so this is my fav FF and all... and I've not played it in forever but...
Is this really a parade with only a single float?!
Like, I loved this mission! All the parts, the intertwining group storylines as each did their jobs, the visuals, and even the botched climax when Edea blocks the bullet...
But a single float Parade?! What is everyone doing when it passes? Are they still going crazy and cheering? To an empty street?
Probably starting to dance.
Did anyone else realize that the whole game is kind of a "blink and you'll miss it" time loop? I didn't realize it until I beat it recently.
And now imagine Sephirot and Edea would work together... The whole universe were so fucked up :D
It's 2021. I'm old but still watching this. Fave FF ever.
A ff8 fan is never old but eternal
Absolutely!
The cycle is eternal.
me too. 35 now but i came back for the music
@@mackeyboy5442no way. I'm 35 too, and I often come back to this video.
The music gives me chills still 15 years later
...no worries, it's just a flesh wound...
Those dancers know how to move
today video game creators should be doing a lot better job on producing such scenes with the tecnology they have.
Always undecided on my favourite final fantasy between 10 and 8.. but after watching this scene again nothing beats this game! REMASTER IT FOR FUCKS SAKE
solid
This scene has always stuck with me. I would go so far to say it’s one of the greatest scenes in the series.
Golden era of gaming
I always thought that wizard bitch was fine af
The dictator has overthrown... The empress have risen.
Most bad ass evil queen ever
I never knew that this dance was inspired by Michael Jackson thriller dance
Awesome scene, one if my favourites.
Imagine watching this as a kid in 1999
I was 21 when I bought the game back in 1999 and was mesmerized
