Here we go then. Time to get stuck into Rob's favourite FF game with Zac and as an added bonus Dan. The salad crew get schooled by the first hour of the 2013 Steam Version of FFVIII.
Final Fantasy VIII
The Steam version of Final Fantasy VIII comes with several in-game enhancements, including a speed-up option to fast-forward through cutscenes and FMVs and built-in cheats, such as Battle Assist, making battles almost impossible to lose. Like Final Fantasy VII, the re-release version comes with the Magic Booster feature that allows players to boost their characters' magics to 100. Achievements and cloud save data storage are also available. Windowed mode and high-resolution displays (up to 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz) are now supported. However, the game still uses the original MIDI tracks from the 1999 version, rather than the PlayStation version music, unlike the 2012 re-released Final Fantasy VII which has received a musical update. Chocobo World is playable directly from the launcher after booting Final Fantasy VIII.
Squall and his new squad mates go out on their first real mission to prove they can grow from the SeeD they will become... that works. Join Zac and Rob on the worst military operation ever.
Also the MIDI music hell has been replaced with the original Playstation soundtrack thanks to the "Roses and Wine" mod. Excellent.
