04-02-2010
An old classic can be revisited on PSP and PS3
| If you're gearing up for the release of Final Fantasy XIII and tomorrow's release of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers (Wii) isn't enough to appease you, good news for you. Square Enix confirmed today that Final Fantasy VIII, originally released on PS1, is available to download for PS3 and PSP from the Playstation Network for €9.99.
Well received by many on its original release, the game has remained popular with fans of the Final Fantasy franchise. Indeed, our own David Brown still rates it as his favourite game of all time and well deserving of the high score recently awarded in the retro review.
Larry Sparks, Vice President Brands PAL Region of Square Enix Ltd. comments, “FINAL FANTASY VIII is one of the best known and loved adventures in the FINAL FANTASY series. Over 10 years on and the game is still as endearing and challenging as ever. We’re pleased to be releasing FINAL FANTASY VIII on PlayStation Network in PAL territories from today.” |
