For most people its even harder to get a japanese copy of the old pc version than getting a computer for around 150 bux that can play ff8 pretty well on win7. we can even stream with a second computer without the need of a capture card. people do the effort getting certain consoles and expensive capture cards to be competitive. and we will still be able in a few years to get a cpu that is compatible with win 7. sure takes some effort but that's part of speedrunning imo.

at some point it will be hard to get a working ps2. we even need a 90k model. we could also say since a ps2 is an old system and at some point will be rare to get we should only run on emulator*. its EASIER

if i respect that the difference for the remaster between win7 and win10 is not that huge anymore like before and that the game runs slower than the old version even on win7 i would say going with win10 for the remaster would be fine.. would be nice to see many ppl run the game, but even tho I don't think so, the hype is just there atm..

tbh i dont get the aspect that win7 is a old system, there still ways. and I don't think just because of the majority of the world speak english, that the run have to be english. the fastest language should count. when its chinese, well then its CHN..

sorry for so much writing but i think choosing something that is SLOWER in a SPEEDRUN just because its EASIER to realize is wrong.. but just my opinion.

sorry for copy the luzCAPS

I'm for 3. or 4.

Hi Teawiththanatos, there only two possible reasons why your boost doesn't work. I remember that the cracked version by iNLAWS had the booster function disabled. Other reason could be your keyboard... did you bought the game?
