Yeah 8 is my favourite Final Fantasy & it's also one of my alltime favourite RPG's, The draw system could be a bit annoying but I love the charaters & the story.
Like yourself I've got a save just before the ballroom scene as well, I have 8 on the PS though but I have 2 memory cards soley for 8 lol. I have to have a save just before the dance 1 just before the scene in the Ragnarok & I always keep 1 for the ending.
