I meant bio's for the characters you create, as most people familiar with FFVIII will know the story of the canon characters. Now you mention though, I would like people to take a canon character each; even if you have your own creation already.

I share your pain about the car - mine broke down recently and now I need a new one. Pissed off doesn't come close to describing how annoyed I was when it broke. At least you've got family to stay with bud. Good luck with the job hunt as well. I'm sure you'll find something soon!

So, I've updated the OP to include confirmed members. I was thinking that it could be a good idea to have bio's for original characters - so that we have a bit of background information. It doesn't need to be done right now as it's very early days, but at some point would be nice.

Bi Irvine - interesting! I'm guessing that you'll play Irvine as well then. Great to see that people are interested though. I'll get to posting my bio up later. I don't have the time at the minute, but I at least wanted to acknowledge the responses so far ^_^

Not bad thanks buddy! I've found it really hard to get the time to post anything - new job was eating all of my time! Hopefully back for good this time ;) How have things been with you dude?

I think originality is important in all RP's - as long as the bedrock of the story isn't forgotten. I'd probably try to encourage stronger RPers to take on a canon character as well as an original if possible. New GF's would be fine. Just nothing ridiculously powerful - You know what I mean.

Balamb Garden RP Ok, we're going to try a FFVIII RP - I really hope this one takes off. These boards are crying out for another RP. There are few good one's going on at the minute - none of them being FFVIII based. The sun was shining brightly. The leaves had never been so green. The wind...

I'm unsure, but I'll admit those clips are all really well made; a person that hasn't played FFVIII could easily believe these to be lifted straight from the game. It's tough to say how the game would be with voice overs. As is, I think voice overs would be odd - but this may be because voice...

I've always been a fan of Bahamut - I especially like that there's only one this time, as supposed to FFVII when there are 4! (I think...) The battle before obtaining Bahamut is a great one as well, so it gives you a big sense of satisfaction. I'm surprised Cactuar is so unpopular! How can...

It's crazy to see how much the RP community has depleted - it used to be thriving around here. I've been itching to get into it again, but feel that I'm very limited to RP's based around FFVII, VIII or IX to a lesser extent. That being said, I was seriously thinking of creating an RP named...

It was a tough call between FFVII and VIII for me, but VIII edges it. I admit the following is a strange comment, but VIII's soundtrack seems a bit more human and lifelike - and yes, I'm aware this is only a game. There are so many more memorable tracks in VIII, and they really capture the mood.

Spot on with everything, I couldn't agree more. FFXIII really disappointed me, in pretty much every way. Yes, the visuals were impressive - but so what? When a storyline is so linear what difference does it actually make? Unfortunately, I checked the wrong box and ended up voting for XII :gonk:

Sometimes a break is all you need - the thing you've just been through happened to a friend of mine recently, and it didn't end well! Sounds like you've made a good decision at a good time. The last thing you want is drink messing your life up.

I'm not surprised at this news at all. People will look at this and think that it's a waste of time that could be put to better use re-making FFVII - which just isn't going to happen. SE have said time after time that the sheer detail they would have to go into for the towns alone would take...

No brainer for me - it would have to be Balamb. Although, I highly doubt they have that awesome music playing whilst I'm walking around... Personally, I wouldn't fancy Esthar. I hate their dress sense.

It's good to see that there are people that enjoy FFVIII as much as I do - I've literally just started a new game. Over the past couple of weeks, I've been listening to the soundtrack non-stop. It's so addictive and nostalgic. I love it. Each time I do try to do something different. I might...

All fans of the FF series know that one of the strongest qualities it has is it's replay value. There are obviously many other things, but you know a game is special when you want to complete it again and again. So, my question to you is: What makes you want to play FFVIII over and over? Is it...

I really don't mind, the choice is yours. The main post shows who's taken already.

Custom characters should always be designed with an element of common sense I think. So nothing along the lines of: equipped with his ultimate weapon, ultima materia in each slot etc...there also shouldn't be anything along the lines of "he took down the giant beast with one swipe." Post your...

No problem, Deadpool. Sir Frately is back on board as well so we'll hopefully see him back here soon. I might look at playing the roll of a couple of canon characters due to our small amount of numbers - you guys feel free to take some more.
