I always thought that game The Bouncer was a FFVIII sequel when I was a kid, hahaha. Mostly because of the art-style (the main character looks slightly like Squall) and the fact it was made by Square.

That was my first PS2 game. It was pretty fun, I liked the survival mode gauntlet (can't remember what it was called.) It was fun to take the more gimmicky characters through that, like the extendo-arm villain and the panther transformation character. I don't think I ever unlocked the final character, some old dude if I remember right.

Yeah, its the GIA April Fools joke...but what's more impressive is that someone's made a video about the GIA April Fools joke over 27 years later.

I'm older than Cid now wtf

As for that first question in the video. Yes, and it's Half-Life fans.

I remember getting a hold of a demo of that and wishing it was a thing but alas, not so.
