Final Fantasy VIII Remastered - All GF Summons [4k-60FPS]

[@hsilva0490]

This game is such a happy part of my childhood ❤. Diablo was always my favorite summon.

[@BYERE]

Diabolos will always be my favourite too.

[@TheOmegaDragon]

He kinda gives that Frieza death ball fanservice vibe in a way. He has an awesome summon/attack animation.

[@ahdandimas6577]

​@@TheOmegaDragon absolutely this

[@kodykitchens7425]

Mine was always Odin. It was almost always GG the moment he appeared on the battlefield - until Seifers douchebag self cut him in freaking half. Pissed me off so damn bad. 🤬🤬💢

[@BerryNiceToMeetYou]

@@kodykitchens7425 at least he came back as Gilgamesh

[@kylemcmanus560]

My first Final Fantasy game I got for Christmas. Still my favorite too.

[@maylee7638]

Me too back in 1999

[@guyver441]

Tried FFVI ?

[@kimmydaisymaltese1111]

I'm sorry this was your first Final Fantasy game. This game made me quit playing all future FF game.

[@karenwallace2660]

Love this game more than any of the other FF games

[@naz2x]

Prefer 7

[@sephiroth21347]

These animations will never get old. Theyre burned into my memory FF8 was the first one I ever saw/played. Was a liiittle kid and Id watch my dad play. Never really quite got the story then, but man were the visuals striking. We'd work on it slowly but surely over time, and I started to understand it more and more. Then we got FF9 too, and that quickly became my favorite in whole series. Also remember my mom used to haaate the Diabolos animation. We'd tease her by telling her to look at the screen when we cast him

[@GlitchanBlack]

Dunno why your mom hated Diablos - it looks SO BADASS.

[@RobPryme]

The Minotaur Brothers animation always cracked me up, no pun intended.

[@wellingtoncrdeseusamigos]

The ending was epic, with Eden finishing Omega Weapon. Great job!

[@WombatMan64]

God I remember grinding Omega Weapon. I had a rule for myself, that I wasn't allowed to look up online strategies for the mega-bosses (including Ruby and Emerald from FF7) until I'd defeated them myself. (Side note, I preferred my methods for Emerald and Ruby than the online ones, because they give you 50,000AP, and I wanted that for doing some significant materia levelling up) When I realised that he always does the same attacks in the same order... it became... possible.

[@ErdingerLi]

I used to have no freaking idea what Eden is doing. Now i understand, it descends to Earth, warp the location of space-time that the enemy is on and centres it above itself before blasting the enemy into the blackhole at the centre of a galaxy. What an overkill, then again, Sephiroth did something more ludicrous i guess

[@lyriansept1044]

And the enemy comes back on the battlefield after that '-'

[@Light1090]

I definitely know I get getting Supernova flashbacks. Lol

[@dosito86]

Thank you! I still have trouble understanding what was going on. All I concerned myself with was mashing square

[@PHNXFireBird]

Technically Eden does more, because Seph blows up the Sun and eradicates the Solar system, Eden wipes out at least half the galaxy there when that black hole expands and blows up

[@drewmyers3916]

​@@PHNXFireBirdthat doesn't even make sense.

[@ThatDangDaddy]

Man this takes me back to the good days!

[@Auron12786]

To this day I think Pandemona is the strangest FF summon I’ve ever seen. One part parrot, one part dinosaur, one part vacuum cleaner

[@Chuck-Morris]

Lmfaooo I don't think I've ever heard such an accurate description of this GF 😂 I wonder what creature it's inflatable vacuum tail is part of? Lol

[@deboraudrey]

And how about tonberry? It's like turtle, but also not a turtle, idk eh so confusing 😭😭😭

[@night00glider]

Then what about Eden ???

[@dannychug]

I’m glad it’s never made a reappearance since cuz that was a design miss.

[@2hot4u68]

It's because he uses a Dyson

[@Phoenixesper1]

The one thing FF8 Got Absolutely right were the Summons. My opinion they are the best iterations of the summons in the whole franchise.

[@Hylan171]

Shoutout to Quetzalcoatl filling in for Ramuh! Loved his design in the game.

[@eskimocheeks9911]

For sure! He gets overlooked because he is the first GF you get, but his animation is really cool. I love how he is shot from the cool looking sky through a lightning bolt, then pops out spinning out of the ground looking majestic AF. He doesn't look as scary as he could, but his attack is also pretty cool. The only one who tops him for looking majestic is Bahumut.

[@saifon2007]

He's my favourite summon of the game

[@mariofraschini9341]

Sembra una vita fa ....quanta nostalgia, un gioco meraviglioso il migliore in assoluto dei giochi di ruolo ,il migliore come storia ,il migliore in tutto

[@tripthongUwU]

The dev team were smart to outsmart the system limitations for the summons, since most or all the summons requires more memory than the specs. The game loads data slowly and shortly before the cutscene changes, and each cutscene has different data. The FF9 summons are more smarter in terms of data management, since they're more dramatical and the data constantly changes with each cutscene, they're loaded slowly and replacing the unused ones while the cutscene run I knew this by seeing the VRAM using pSXfin emulator

[@alessandroguerzoni527]

Selphie summoning doomtrain: that’s classy ❤️

[@goatherds]

Always bothered me that Cactuar and Tonberry summons didn’t retain their boss fight designs of Jumbo Cactuar with his mustache and Tonberry King with the crown.

[@eskimocheeks9911]

Cactaur still had the most detailed attack in terms of animation wise. All those needs coming looked the most...not sure of the word, just detailed and well animated.

[@VinLwj]

9:45 Cool! Bahamut vs Tiamat! I always prefer Tiamat's color scheme more than Bahamut. FFVIII GF like Shiva, Ifrit, Diablos and Bahamut are always my favorite summon beast designs in whole FF series.

[@wayne8797]

My first FF and will always be my favorite. Still remember how mercerizing the special effects were when this first came out. There was nothing like it in the market. Square was on another level back then.

[@cujo9071]

my first FF and my favorite too 😉😊

[@mikehance6086]

I love how there is no mp in this game also playing cards i liked cards in 9 as well

[@ens0246]

I feel like getting torn from Earth's bonds, dragged through a wormhole and then exploded in the centre of another galaxy would do more than 56510 damage 😂

[@ladylaylowjk]

And at least, it kills Omega!

[@sebastiencarron1574]

I know them by heart. Just have to close my eyes and here they are. Yet, it pops and I NEED to see it... Great stuff

[@teachersama]

Life is what happens between Eden's animation and its actual attack LOL

Man...you lived a good life...my childs graduated from high school and college and Sephirot is still throwing the solar system at me 👀🤭

[@tomislavkuna2265]

Great job with this video! All diff location and opponents! A lot of planning and effort on your part. :)

[@RayMak]

This is so super good

[@AstalThe9]

I like how you used some of the more odd and rarer locations to do the summons in. That hockey rink really only comes up once or twice. Also GLORY to Phoenix. That colorful bird saved my happy ass 3 times in the Weapon fight

[@pizzaofdarkness4041]

It's crazy how FFVIII looks so good when remastered and runs on 60fps like seriously. Also, nice video editing skill and presentation!

[@leonleon2021]

Bruh, even the remaster version the battle scene is 15fpa fixed, too bad 😮

[@themonsterunderyourbed9408]

It doesn't run at 60fps ever. This is just basically a 60fps up converting. It has gross artifacts all over. I hate it

[@midnightpanda10]

childhood memories 😭😍

[@AmroDK]

Oh man, I was the nerd who found them all, and I used to help my friends at school and draw them a map where to go and where to draw. Good memories.

[@BYERE]

I remember being in school, on the library computers, at a time when the internet was still in its infancy... I downloaded short videos of some of the summons in anticipation for this game.

[@Clad_in_Darkness_Gaming]

Wow oh wow never seen Eden before. Damn that’s an op summon. Sending the boss to a galaxy and exploding it then falling back to earth. Stronger than super nova.

[@TheCUTTERbyPHOENIX]

one hell of a pain to get, that G-Force !

[@guyver441]

Yeah, a bit over the top but considering what Zell and team have to go up against it's justified.

[@iainrobb2076]

It's excruciating to get but worth it. It can actually hit for over 70,000 at full strength, if the enemy has been hit with a Meltdown first and Boost is taken all the way up.

[@gontear3377]

I thought the 4K resolution would finally help me understand what I'm looking at when Eden is summoned.

[@nikanoru13]

No matter how many times i've seen it i never understood what exactly is happening during Eden summon

[@fernandomateo4109]

Once I read it is a Garden (like Balamb and Galbadia, hence the name). Still not sure about it

[@robert3px]

Man I remember Phoenix randomly saving me from Game Over so many times. Underrated GF.

[@R.James.]

Wow that's so weird seeing this after almost 25y and my mind still instantly remembers the "phantomfeel" in my hand how my old shock controller went off on each of the summons.

[@ParappatheRapper]

Great stuff. Feels weird seeing it in full speed. So used to the slowdowns on the native PS1.

Alexander is cool AF, nobody gives him props in terms of the greats.

[@Boredofmostofit]

This video takes me waay back. 👍 Havn't played FF8 in 10 years i think and I'm still unsure what my favorite G.F. is... I guess Odins entrance was always super cinematic, but quetzalcoatl (no clue if my spelling is correct there) had this mix of elegance with the force of thunder? I think i have to stick with Ifrit though. Fire, brute force and this stoic move acending on a Ball of molten rock... plus we all actually subjugated him as our first G.F. Definively my number 1.

[@ARCEUS493ZELDA]

FF8 ifrit and bahamut had imo 2 of the coolest animations of all the recurring summons in the franchise imo

[@georgescolpaert4807]

Boss themes are so epic with battle sound effects.

Curative effects are the most effective attacks against undead enemies, with Holy elemental being the second best and Fire elemental being the third best. Using Ice elemental against Abadon? Consider me R1'ed.

How did you cast Eden on Omega weapon? I thought omega was a one time fight to draw Eden.

Eden is drawn from ultima weapon or alternatively tiamit in the castle
