[edit] PSP Download Release?
Is there any word on a rerelease for download on the PSP akin to Final Fantasy 7? Hopefully, it will be inevitable --A Chain of Flowers (talk) 16:17, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
- came out in japan last Thursday, give it a few months as the PAL PS3 still cant play the CD version stably. Needs a LOT of work chocobogamer mine 23:13, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

- Have you got a source? --A Chain of Flowers (talk) 11:46, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
- source for what? if you mean the problems the euro compatibility list is a source to say its error strewn, however, as its not even confirmed for outside japan, you don't need a source for explaining nothing! chocobogamer mine 18:09, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Europe publisher
was Square Europe, not Sony. I've corrected this before, but for some reason someone has reverted this change to say it was published by Sony. Great stuff by whoever did that(!) The splash screen clearly says published by Square Europe Ltd. Thats why the SCE logo is not on the front of the box and why it has an SLES number not SCES. source here http://www.hellandheavennet.com/image/final-fantasy-8/images/boxeu2.jpg chocobogamer mine 22:38, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
[edit] PC Version Development
I think the article forgot that there's a PC version of this game. So, there's lack of the PC version development, till now. PC version review by IGN here. — Blue。 16:26, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
- I agree. I think that's the problems with featured articles; people just stop editing them thinking they're already "complete", even though they might not be (or might not be anymore, as the FF developers often release precious information on past titles in recent interviews).

[edit] Game Informer scans
At User:Teggles' request, I scanned ten pages related to FF VIII from some 1999 Game Informers. Just letting you all know in case there's some usable information in them of benefit to the article. Cheers. sesuprime 04:14, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Ultimania development information
The following sources should be translated and used to expand the current incomplete article:
- Final Fantasy VIII Ultimania
- Ultimania website
Anyone willing to help translate even one page is welcome! Jonathan Hardin' (talk) 10:44, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
[edit] featured in charlies angels
this game is featured in the movie charlie`s angels. it is the truth and i saw it myself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.86.142 (talk) 01:44, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- This cultural reference is considered original research, and reliable sources are needed for this reference. Also please do not use this talk page as a forum. Darth Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 02:14, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Citing the game script in the story section unnecessary
I don't think it's necessary to cite specific lines of dialogue from the game's script in the story section. No other Wikipedia article for a work of fiction does this, and it's actually quite distracting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.139.107 (talk) 00:38, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
- I disagree. Game script quotations are necessary for most video game articles, including this one and other articles in the Final Fantasy series. Darth Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 00:53, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
- I think it helps ensure that plot summaries are staying true to the story as portrayed and not falling into "original research" territory. With that said, I also think that script cites should be kept to claims that may seem a little surprising to readers, such as plot twists, revelations, and story tidbits disclosed during sidequests. That sort of thing. —Deckiller (t-c-l) 05:59, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
- It's also not true at all that "no other article" does this. See many, many video game FAs. Axem Titanium (talk) 03:06, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
