Disk 1 Walkthrough - Walkthrough for Disk one of Final Fantasy 8 - Games

This is the start of my walkthrough for Final Fantasy 8. It includes all four disks. Its not an extremely deep walkthrough, but, if you can not beat the game with this, you should not be even playing this game. I did not original write this. It is copy of a walkthrough passed along and edited many times, I edited it to make it better then before. The original route is untraceble as far as I know, but if anyone knows the original writer, I will give that person credit.
