Just an experiment using debug room to speedrun ff8 in under 45 minutes.
Note I'm using a pal original playstation console with an action replay cart with a ntsc version of ff8 I'm only using the debug cheat code only to enter debug room at the stat of ff8.
The scart to hdmi converter has some synchronize start with ntsc game but is fine after a 2 to 3 seconds it all right.
See youtube video

Very cool indeed. Something similar has been done by pingval using save corruption to complete the game in like 12mins (if you don't count the ending cutscene). It might be something you'd like to check out:

I see what he done using rpg maker 3 to glitch the save file on memory card to skip to the end fmv .
I've seen it used on xenogears ps1 game using the same glitch !.
