[Flying Mullet]

Imagine I'm a stubborn old man(stubborner and older than I am now) and that I've never played FFVIII, or any Final Fantasy for that matter. Why should I play it? What's so great about it? Why should I play it instead of another Final Fantasy as my first foray into this series?

Because it has a gunblade.

[MJN SEIFER]

Because it has a great storyline, is fun to play, is pretty straight forward to use without being to easy (the draw system), and is romantic (if you don't romance, though that won't convince you).

Why is the storyline great? Why is it fun to play? What's straight-forward about it that makes it fun to play? Mushy stuff, eh? Are there boobies?

It's a gun that's also a sword. It's cool, trust me.
