I haven't read reviews on this game for the past 4 moths, and I come back, and I see the star rate lower, and I see all these 1 star reviews saying the graphics sucked, and FF VIII was better.  So what is it?  A group of FF8 lovers who just had to do this to fell better, or is it one person, posting reviews over and over again.  Well, for starters, graphics don't make a game, that's why this game sold the most out of any FF game.  And 8 better than 7, HA!  Final Fantasy 8 was more of a soap opera, and the juncion system plain out stinks.  The materia system was a lot easier.  I mean, come on, lemme get back to the issue, these 1 star reviews are just there to bring this games star rate down.  Well whatever those 1 star folls do, they just can't except the fact that Final Fantasy 7 will always be better than 8, no matter what.  Not graphicways, but in every other way possible.  And these reviews are not gonna change what a great game it is.  But to all the earlier hnest reviews.  Those are the reviews to trust if you really want to think of what kind of game this really is.
