- Figured we could take on Odin and see how he looks. Yeah, Angelo needs some work for sure. And I'm aware of something that needs fixing with Project AngelWing here. Pretty obvious. Haha. Enjoy.

"Call upon me in times of trouble" shows up only whenever he wants to.
Laguna Seca
And gets cut by seifer.
That's two things I didn't like about ff8.
Sometimes when u press a certain button and I think it was either cross or square then he will show up. I tried that several times and it worked. U need to press it when the battle begins and the characters start to get ready for battle.
Shinji D
My uncle said the same thing but except with the L1 and R1 buttons. A friend said the select and start buttons helped him.
But it actually is random. Same with the Phoenix summon when you unlock her...random. Rinoa's Angelo moves are also random. The luck stat didn't do anything to help it out.
😂😂😂
appears when an alligator whos off........................but when you need him against a marlboro....................neither in the corners xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Who played this 20 years ago?
Me👍
I did! 🙋🏽♂️
Me :)
Me
Me
I swear if SE misses just FFVIII from the remakes I will never buy another game of theirs. This introduced me to RPG's and has a permenant place in my heart.
RedTygon same here best final fantasy imo followed by x
se here finally someone who thinks ffviii is special 😍
That's because it was special. It had its flaws yeah but it was my first RPG and loved the summons, loved Squall and Laguna and played the hell out of the Tetra card game! Also had awesome limit breaks, Lion Heart is still the best to me to this day! ^.^ Least he is on the new Dissidia game coming out this year so that I can look forward to ^.^
RedTygon ya it wins the award of the best mini game in ff beside blitzball of course :p
and the summons were awsome even the love story between squal and rinoa was great let us not forget the music and soundtracks 😍 everything was perfect in it except some flaws in the story
by the way it was my first rpg and ff game too wouldn't think that i would find a game to make me addicted to it like that after Loz ocarina of time 😂❤
Sad as it may sound I actually have Eyes on you from the game, the full track heh. And yeah the love story was very spot on and powerful, oh and the Chocobo's were my fave type. They looked so cuddly and sounded so cute!
i would like to tell you all what this game means to me. as short as i can.
back in the 90's my parents couldn't afford a memory card. so every morning when i entered the balamb garden i needed to start all over and over again. a few months and ifrits slaughtered later, a friend lend me his memory card. i was too young and dumb to understand the junctioning system. so, it took me about a year of my life to defeat 'Namtal Utok' the president double, in the train. i barely managed to get to the end of disk 1. at some point, i gave up fighting edea.
the years passed and i turned 15. suddenly there was something called 'internet', where you could hook up information. i came back to beat the hell outta every boss from deling city to esthar.
since then, i've finished this game about 25 times. not lying.
now i am 27 years old, like laguna. i am on my way to become a director in germany. my eyes water up as i promise, for as long as i am alive, i will do my best to gift this world and all of you with beautiful stories & creations like final fantasy VIII.
Just Thank you Squaresoft!!
You could afford a 4 disc game, but not a memory card? I'm calling bullshit on this one.
Rain Man best joke ever
the ps1 was from my cousin. he was way older than me and didnt needed it anymore. the game was also his.
+ i am a refugee from afghanistan. it took time for us, to manage our financal problems. because of those reasons i was to shy to ask for a memory card.
ya'll youtube riders dont need to call bullshit on everything that doesnt make sense at first thought. just ask politely or think twice :-)
Rain Man now it make sense ,
i believed on you 😉
Not sure why you posted this fake story, but the internet existed when this game came out in 1999.
I love this Final fantasy cause in my 20s my beloved brother Pablo Martinez helped me to understand this wonderfull game, his memory card contains a file in wich he kicks omega's weapon ass and in other he has all the cards and many rare items !
Rest in peace brother!
Final fantasy is the best video game of all times!
i was grade 4 when i played this game hahha now im 29 and still loving it. i love the soundtracks i think modern games missed this kind of music.
My first Final Fantasy! That overworld music still haunts me to this day. If it wasn't for Odin's random summon, I wouldn't have gotten a Malboro's tentacles for Quistis' ultimate weapon. Great game, fond memories. Thank you Squaresoft.
Terrestrial_Bullitt_5373N this game in my legend
Terrestrial_Bullitt_5373N this game and other ff games are always have a place in my heart ❤
OMG same thing that happened for me!!! The damn Malboros were such a pain back then without consulting a guide and stuff Lol!
I cant stop laughing. I swear this happened to me a few times while playing through. Squaresoft knew exactly what they do.
Hmm..one time I had played ff8 to encounter marlboroes, in this time Odin appeared suddenly~Zantetsuken😂
Anyone is here after FF8 remastered announcement ? :)
Came to check if this looks just as janky as I remember, and it does.
Yeah and figured out this looks better imo
Definitely ME
with mods are much better
Best Final Fantasy.
Btw
1. The death messangers (the skeletons with the wings) are undead and can quickly be killed with a phoenix down.
2. Odin is one of the rare bosses from whom you can draw Tripple early in the game. I think the next one is Cerberus at Galbadia Garden. Make use of it. Tripple works great if you junction with magic.
Oh the memories. I think it's at least 10 years when I last played this game but I still remember almost everything. FFVIII will have a place in my heart forever.
DanyFox 10 years to long man time to replay
and you can Mug a Luck-J Scroll from him too, an ultra rare item in this game.
I'm assuming you played this game more than 3 times hahaha
DanyFox What you say is true. But I can't remember if certain draws are based on levels or not. Either way, I typically wait till Cerberus to get triple. Since I'm not on a timer with him and I like to get Tonberry King here and draw what he has to offer.
Draws are based on your magic attribute. The higher your magic the more you draw. I used to junction Tornado or Quake since you can get those fairly early in the game (from the 2 Brothers at the Labyrinth before end of disc 1. you get their cards if you defeat them and they hold Quake and Tornado).
I love the fact that square soft at the time thought Angelo cannon was a logical move. Fire doggo fire!
This is actually the best odin of all ff game.
Sorry but i like Odin from VII better since he's not limited to Zantetsuken in this one.
This series actually had some of the best music
The Legend of Legaia, The Legend of Dragoon and Final Fantasy VIII were my first rpgs. I just love them. Great memories!
The Last Frontier too... miss them all
Legend of legaia ps1 is justt theee best laah
Why you, legaia also my best rpg, it has sad stories. If only it will have remake, my life will be completed
Facing the one boss in the game who doesn't attack.
"Better summon Carbuncle!"
Stuart J.A. Curse me and my demonstrations. D:
haha made my day
easiest final fantasy ever
Best story though
no, just superb graphic style for that time
Every once in a while, i come back to watch this. You got a friend in germany you dont know about :)
FF 8 and 10 are the best ever. No doubt!
7 8 9 and 10 for me. prob in that order too. sucks they not making them as good as they used too.
7, 8, 9 and 10, 10-2 is cool as well.. although a little to much girl power, one male main character would have been nice xD
there was a time when I could play this
but life is beyond that now
lets see how long I can live
Well i hope you dont die anytime soon.
Report Odin he goes AFK
ikr, i was like did he even trying? i drawed 100 triple magic for each member
Reported!
Wow! It looks great. Very crisp. Was my first final fantasy to ever hear about, my older sisters played it like crazy
I can’t wait for the remaster to release. I already preordered it. I love how this video was recommended to me now after the remaster is announced.
Is there any trailer or anything about how it looks?
Wow, the orchestral music covers were epic as it was, to see it with the game really makes it awesome! 😊
"Call upon me in times of trouble."
'Receives Odin's Business Card.'
Not Bad like the updated HD look as you say in the description needs some work but apart from that well done. The Don't be afraid track sounds like the one from the Distant worlds album one of the reasons I like this video.
This looks and sounds way better than the remake
*remaster. And the models in the remaster still look better
Game needs a remake or proper remaster. Favorite FF out of them all and I've played through this game so many times.
Your wish has been fulfilled. SquareEniz just announced a remaster.
@@r.p.354 the official remaster looks worse than this though.
@@hpatdh077
They only remastered the character models
This game will Always be part of me. Damn I love it so much!
Too had many of the traditionalists hated the draw system and the guardian force powered junction system but this added so many layers to consciousness being shared and the philosophy with that....... Juntioning magic and equipping it was so much different from equipping weapons although you could do both.. in final fantasy 8 there was not so much a focus on wepon equipment. The upgrading component of the weapons you had was new and nice....
Is it any wonder final fantasy is called final fantasy reminding the people that it is out of THIS world and yet so many people cling to the same formulas over and over and leave so much unexplored that other RPGs don't touch on.....
Japan......And the West at war.......... Because they want to go further and the west is like no no no we like the same toast over and over
Me too,,,😄
Music is just so awesome *-*
FF8 brought me to the world of RPGs and FF series. The very first FF "crush" ever
MISS FFVIII 😢😢😢
Graphically it’s obviously looks better but I don’t like the changes you’ve made to the music. FF8 has one of the best soundtracks in gaming history and should be left untouched.
Those are the original pieces, but it's a cover of them (Played by random people).
It's not that it's the wrong soundtrack, it's a better replacementfor what you have, the music for the pc version of the game is completely different and doesnt sound as good.
I Agree with you
WTF! This looks better than the remastered.
And most things in this video is about to be replaced with better textures, too. xD
Still one of the most memorable parts of the game.
An high quality product is that when most of it works outside of its context (music the ost, fashion think Edea's dress for example, lore as it would work as a fairy tale, technology Esthar city)
after all this time? you still playing? man you are legend.. hope SE remake this Final fantasy :')
Fretless Sunday Oh yeah. Got about 2,700 hours logged in. Thanks! If the FF7 remake does well, then they might just do it.
Agree! The best FF in my opinion!
I dont think so. Even ff7 took so long. Damn son. This is my best ff ever. Ff7 is overrated... squall forever
I don't care for VIII all that much. But there's no denying the huge leap in graphics it got compared to VII. These mods make the game look even better than it already did. 3 things I did like: The graphics, the opening FMV and the way your party follows you on the field. I guess music was pretty good too.
The orchestral bgm is awesome !
Dammit! Browsing around and came upon this video and ended up watching it. Now I have to install and play it again (played before getting my current PC). Thanks a lot!
I never played the pc version.. Looks so very polished.... So beautiful. This game brings so much memories.. At the same time...it pains me.. I was so addicted that maybe i passed up on the love of my life. Who knows.. After all these years i still haven't snapped out of it... No Quistis and Rinoa are not for real :D
That's because he's using HD mods.
Holy shit... is one of the mods making the battle theme metal?? Badass
I remember when I played this as a kid who barely understood english, I was constantly like WHAT IS THE TIMER FOOOOOOOOOOORRRR
2 things to complain about this game:
1. The junction system make loose interest in using magic, but the draw command makes every encounter, especially boss fight, exciting. What 's this? The boss has 4 thing to draw? An GF and one badass magic that makes my stat sky rocket. Cool.
2. I swear to God I had hoped Tear 's point has a maze with an awesome boss fight that holds an Easter egg or a missing part for Laguna 's past. The truth is all that beautiful and mesmerizing design for a piece of item. Now I understand Thanos: "all that for a drop of blood". Don't know if I should be thankful for the visual effect or hate Square for keeping my hope so high.
I m here....cant wait the feeling. How i dream become a seed member....funny how things passed on. Childhood dream
The character & GF re-textures (specifically the faces) make em feel like their either high, over exaggerated(Rinoa's eyes scared me), etc. The characters and GF's don't seem to blink their eyes if you do the retexture but the enemy re-textures are a good one
I think people prefer Devina's eyes over Mago's...but Devina only ever did Squall's eyes. So much still needs work. It's not so much due to the textures that they don't blink. It's the tool that allows the textures to be replaced that causes it. I thought we were making headway on that, but Tonberry doesn't seem like it'll be updated to fix it... I've toned down the GFs to try and match the way I did the enemies at this point. Trial and error and all that.
I swear this place was creeping me out when I was young. And I was like lvl 80 so the trash mobs were all strong af. Plus the timer freaked me out xD
"Call for me in times of trouble" he comes whenever he bloody liked the bastard
Lol this is way better than the remastered version!
I remember the first time i played FF8, and im not familiar with the junction system. The only way i can beat bosses is by spamming GFs.
The hardest fight i ever got is against Fujin and Raijin in Balamb City., and against the boss at the missile base. I almost gave up during the battle and thought i was underleveled so i train more just to be beaten to crap again by them(since enemies lvled up as u do).
It tooks months for me to realize the junction system, and its only when i see a friend of mine playing it. I feel stupid back then. But i have no regret.
FF8 is still my fav, and my fav track is the boss fight, and when you are over junctioned, u tend to heal the boss just to extend the fight.
My games are limited so few. This is one of them. I've finished this several times over in many aspects. I've finished it full cheated, weapon cheat, status, gil, limit, item, and no cheat all grind mode. With every different characters. In every way possible.
FFVIIII has god-tier soundtrack
Is that Black Mage version of Force your Way?
Strela You're right. It is.
Hope they remaster this for PS4 but not like FFIX where they used the iPad UI. It's too big, it's covering the entire game.
my favourite game ever, i played the pc version when 2001 for the first time
i'm just wondering...this is the ingame music?...can you have the PS1 one?...i dont like it ._.
Im obsessed with this game, Please make a remake I beg you Square Enix !!!
You can always get Odin in disk four if you don't like the idea of seifer cutting down Odin. Bit to be honest the seeds power was more powerful then the guardian forces and even though seifer left Balaam garden.... He was still a force to be reckoned with...... Maybe if Gilgamesh exceeded 9999 damage like quists it might of been worth the trouble.... He returns in final fantasy 8 but is not in 10 lol .. maybe seifer killed Odin from the final fantasy series. .. lol
Best final fantasy. It deservers a remake. My second favorite o VI
I don't remember the music in this game slapping so hard back in the day. Has my taste improved, or has this soundtrack also been somehow modded?
Man, I miss this so much
eddy must have watched this before posting it on his channel. he didn't want to tell those who didn't watch that competition that the documentary is wrong, that he did shake his hand now did he?
Hey bro just wondering....
Could any average Joe buy a good PC and download this in steam and play? Would it include the MODS or would I need to install them?
I've been wanting to play FF8 again for maybe 5 years now but haven't had the chance due to it not being remastered for console. The only problem being I'm not a whizzkid with PCs and often have trouble getting things to work!
Thanks!
I think so. Shouldn't be too hard. There is even an installer out there that will install most of the mods for you. But it's not difficult to do yourself. Just a matter of downloading the files and textures and putting them in the right place. And if you run into problems, we try our best to help people out.
PS1 emulater (ePSXe v2.0.5 latest emucr.com) then download the ISO from coolrom.com OR emuparadise.me
configure the video plugin for HD graphics easy peazy just click 1 button.
ENJOY.
I'm even playing it now on my android phone (ePSXe for android)
@Uncrowned King You better change your name dude
Uncrowned King u
Good afternoon, I installed all the Mods, but I can not use the (GeDoSaTo Downsampling Config v2.2 by Mcindus) that the Resolution, could make a video step by step? I'm from Brazil.
You can break 9999 damage????
Great vid, thanks! I love the PC version of FVIII once it's patched up and fixed a bit, since sadly Squaresoft dumped the original PC version in a really poor state :( Also, the Roses & Wine addon is absolutely essential too! I love how it's using the official CD soundtrack rather than the terrible PC MIDI renditions we got -- I dare say I even like it more than the PSX MIDI version too. All the comments below by people whining that "they destroyed the soundtrack!" don't have a gorram clue what they're talking about. The original soundtrack mixed with the excellent remixes sounds great! Top marks for using The Black Mages' version of Force Your Way -- Nobuo's remix band is incredible.
Also, I love your choices and mix of mods, I'm sorely tempted to have my yearly replay of VIII a few months early this year :D Thank you for including links to the mods you use, Qhimm is a fantastic site :)
~edit~
oh... I'm an idiot! I only just noticed that YOU are the author of many of these mods. Dude, SWEET! Thank you again :D I'm sorry for all the negativity people are flinging at you, people that call themselves "fans" but are just posers IMO.
In terms of graphics, I like more this HD than remaster one.
8:15 that face kinda creeps me out lol excellent job!
In The fight isn't original music. I know and i love this game!
Rinoa's eyes are so scary
I always wait until disc 4 to get Odin. I had Gilgamesh once on my first ever play through and that was enough for me.
My favorite FF series all time !
God damn it. this looks better than the FF9 remaster for ps4 that I payed 20 bucks for.
The soundtrack is different from originals
I love the 2d backdrops there amazing
If this guy would ever attack..... 2 words..... IT'S OVER
My fave FF. I miss this soundtrack. Btw, spamming renzokuken is much quicker then using GF's.
Hermoso para mi el mejor de todos los final fantasy
The fact that this loads up properly in wine is awesome... now if I can just get the modded textures to load. 😞
Just get windows, its a miracle that anything works on wine
Did someone enhanced the music as well as the graphics? I don't remember some of the sounds in the battle music.
I would definitely play this game again with these graphics and sounds.
you gotta push the renzokuken trigger button on squall normal attacks, gives instant crit
That soundtrack of ff8... So perfect
Sorry if this is a noob question, but how you get ur Balamb Garden to look so good in the beginning of the video
You will be able to encount Odin earlier,if you have ''No encount'' ability(owner of Diabolos?).
I know. I typically have it on in the videos. I just left it off here for a little padding so I wasn't just running to get there.
Everyone in this game got a GF, but everyone that played it didn't.
True, I got a BF instead
I wasn't even thinking about girls at the time. I was thinking how I'm gonna fuck Sefner up when I see him
Back when I was a kid, everytime I hear the initial GF, I think of the Ifirits, the Odins and the Bahamuts.
1:51 - Irvine getting the taste of that fine lady. :D
the music sounds like bass landing when you hook up
Wonderful combat music
Odin is the Best G. F. with Doomtrain
This game filled me with tons of memories.. 😍. I remembered bought a walkthrough book n I have to save some money. Because I'm still at high school n really, I can't afford that. N I'm afraid to ask from my parents. Lol.
andddddddd they would say gaming is a waste of time back then.
Now ask them whether gaming is still a waste of time when we have major esports leagues and huge events.
I would certainly beat this game for the 5th time with these graphics.
Like the orchestrated Soundtrack so much. Back in the days I dreamed of hearing HD-Music instead of shitty midi files. I like the idea with the black mages track as well, albeit the track is one of the weakest from them (info: the progressiv rock track in the boss fight is played by nobuo uematsus band black mages at which he played the synth).
Watching the girl shoot the dog off her wrist made me laugh harder than anything all week
Best game ever made
Odin's theme, link pls, I love it so much~
Better than remastered
Call upon me in times of trouble*
Never actually came
I usually hack Squall out from my team for this and have our dearest Instructor Trepe lead the team getting Odin.
Can't say I'm a fan of the Angelo textures. Her fur consistency seems more ragged than the original.
Too much detail enhancement. It looks good on others. But not on her. It doesn't look natural. So yeah, I agree.
this whole mod is a farce. original psx > everything until the official remake
Angelo is a girl pupper?!? No way.
Takigan
Angelo is a male name.
angel(o) is a boy >.
No more line straight through Squalls face.
I love how the changed the soundtracks 😀

プログラミングのリアリティーがあったとおもいました😃かならずしもハッピーエンドなどのこともない
Only final fantasy game i fall in love with n finished it more thn 5 times . My first final fantasy game .
Why not reboot this . I never finished ff7 never liked it .
Omega weapon for squall n R1 triger for gun demage i loved it . Boosting summons ,man ! really was fun .
Malak Adil Because FF7, for a lot of people, was their first RPG. So it became overly popular at the time. And Square has always been known to milk what's popular...to death.
