Favourite GF; Who's your choice?

Continuing the trend of "Favourite ......" I thought I would ask about your favourite GF and why?

Personally I always liked Bahamat, mainly due to my fascination with dragons and due to the history of Bahamut being "The Dragon King." His move Mega Flare is one of the more enjoyable moves to watch in FF8, nothing beats a gigantic energy beam of death! Also his Forbid Mag-RF is one of the most useful Menu Abilities to have when you are going through Ultimecia's castle and are in need of some high level magic.

So who is your favourite or favourites.

Cheers, eh. B-)

Hmmm... favourite GF? That's a tough one... Either Shiva, Carbuncle or Eden... I'd say Eden.

Not because of it's INCREDIBLE power (which I thought was over the top when fully boosted) but because of the animation (similar to my like of The End).

It may take 3 and 1/2 life times to play the whole summon, but it is amazing to watch, in my opinion. And when using codes to have it early on, it's kind of funny to watch a lowly Galbadian Soldier be subjected to it...

Bu in the end, I just think it's one the more entertaining and graphically enthralling GFs (or summons in the series to date in my opinion) ^_^

Moi? J'aime Leviathan. C'est magnifique!


Sorry for the French. But yes, Leviathan is my favourite, closely followed by Diablos and then Bahamut (your first 2 GF's in my game are Leviathan and Diablos). I've always liked Leviathan's animation. I like Diablos because he's almost the only "dark" Guardian Force, other than Bahamut.
In preference to power and animation other than general "favourites" I think Eden was wicked. None of the other Final Fantasies I've played have had Eden, and though I never used it (250 boost half way through the animation, come on people) it was wicked when I first saw it. I was in awe, and the last time I was in awe like that was the Bahamut vs. Alexander in FF9.

thinking about it, Alexander was pretty cool in FFVIII as well! It looked like it would prefectly into a mecha anime (which is my favourite type of anime :P )

and yeah, bahamut vs alexander in ff9 was pretty amazing, especially with alexander's wings... they were beautiful...

My favourite GFs would be:

DoomTrain: Pretty useful
Eden: Even though I can get a sandwich from downstairs whilst the animation.
Brothers: Animation is pretty funny.
Quezactol: Do you have any idea how many mecha-enemies there are?

Ah, yes Eden was by far the most powerful GF in FF8, and he would never be seen again in any other Final Fantasy, but that spirit of a powerful and long drawn out animation for a summon still lives. Anyone remember Knights of the Round from FF7 or Ark from FF9?

Also, Alexander is one of the coolest recurring summons in the Final Fantasy series, its a gigantic castle with magnificent angel wings. It can almost be said to be a castle made by the angles themselves.

Griever. Despite the fact that you can't get him (although I wonder about the Debug Room), he's the incarnation of Ultimate Darkness. Darkness rules. Riku is proof.
Anger is my friend, Rage my power.

well technically you can use griviers attack, shockwave pulsar, ive nevver been able to pull it off, but if u get siren to lv99, you can refine 99 curse spike into a dark matter, which can be used to teach quistis blue magic shockwave pulsar, but once again never tryed it since theres no way id make siren up to level 99 lol

I don't think you need her to be level 99, but then, it's been a while since I was a high level (going through the game and recording it at the moment lol) so I could be wrong... I just don't remember her gaining anything special at level 99... or 100 for that matter...

Actually its 100 Curse Spikes with Siren at LVL 100. Her Tool RF says you can get Dark Matter at any level but from everything I've looked at it says Siren must be LVL 100.

Speaking of Griever, I think he's less "darkness" and more pain, myself. Heck his name says it all... grieving, pain of what we've lost.
Has anyone called Squall's ring a rude name to get Ultimecia to Junction herself to it? I read somewhere that they called it "a huge penis" (I automatically was disgusted and appalled, of course, that they could name that awesome ring such a thing) and then at the end of the game, Ultimecia says "I will now Junction myself onto a huge penis!"

......it's kind of funny, i think......
