Cloud was a shallow robot with no history, ambition or any other reason to continue through the three short discs. Final fantasy 8 on the other hand had deep characters, complex histories, original cultures and a perfectly meshing world. No one aspect of the game went unexplained and no one character joined the battle unnesecarily. The only "true" reason that the game shouldn't have had continuations is because the story concluded satisfactorily.
