Square to port FFVIII to the PC

It has been confirmed that the PlayStation hit RPG, Final Fantasy VIII, will be released for the PC this winter.

"Square Soft are extremely excited to bring Final Fantasy VIII to PC consumers," said Jun Iwasaki, president of Square Electronic Arts. "The PC platform has allowed Square's development team to significantly enhance the graphics in this already visually stunning game. Characters' detailed expressions and facial movements will be amazingly lifelike. Final Fantasy VIII promises to become the benchmark for RPGs on the PC."

A bold claim, although probably true.
