You know, I got about halfway through FFVIII and picked up Star Ocean on the 360... and then a plethora of other games, so I haven't been through it yet. I've been pondering what to play next though -- it's definitely on the list of highly-considered games. It's the only FF title I haven't beaten.

Hey Loco. Was reading an old post you did and was wondering x.x did you ever beat FFVIII???? I don't think its a waste of money and even if you plan on getting a full collection I say its worth the play (first disk is boring though, I won't lie)
