Welcome to the FFVIII walkthrough section.
This is designed not only to provide you with a full 4 disc walkthrough
for the game, but also to help you out with obtaining GF's, rare cards,
weapons, and other assorted things. All the things written on this page
are also used in the downloadable guide, and the guide is what contains
the complete walkthrough. Please don't use the walkthrough on your site
unless you are granted permission by the author. Well, I hope you enjoy
what Storm has available at the moment, and be sure to check back next
time for further updates.
Can't seem to pass the SeeD tests? Been looking
for an easy way out? Well you've come to the right place. Here, you can
find the answers for all SeeD tests. This will rocket you up to Seed level
A in no time. However, do you really want to cheat and ruin what
can be one of the most frustrating parts of the game? I'll leave the decision
up to you.
