'Square Bowl' Is Final Fantasy Instead Of Football
If you always considered yourself more of an "indoor kid" and don't have much interest in the Super Bowl, you can still come together with like-minded fans to celebrate this weekend.
Game developers Teddy Dief (Hyper Light Drifter) and Adriel Wallick (Train Jam) are hosting the second Square Bowl – a 48-hour event to benefit the Able Gamers charity. Dief and Wallick (and a parade of special game-developer guests) are streaming their playthrough of Final Fantasy VIII, Square's 1999 PlayStation RPG.
This year's stream starts at 7:00pm PST this Friday, 2/5 and ends on Sunday evening at 7:00.
If you're interested, tune into the stream here on Friday!
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
