Final Fantasy VIII Remastered

Test Notes:

The game runs okay and looks as expected.

The Renzokuken overlay runs at 16 FPS (like the battle sequences), even though the PS1 original ran the overlay itself at 60 FPS (with the 3D battle scenes updating at 15 FPS), which makes the timing of it a little bit less precise.

The analog movement and rumble support from the PS1 original are also missing.

Overall the game remains playable and enjoyable.
