OHH! I've been craving for this baby a long time, since I saw the E3 footage. This game looks awesome, with it stunning graphics and great looking multiplayer. I've been waiting a while for the return of FF to Nintendo, and on Feb 9 it will be mine. I am most looking foward to the multiplayer. Wanna here what you people think about it.

I'm definately looking forward to it. It looks B-E-A-UTIFUL! (Sorry, just saw Bruce Almighty ;-])

Yea, it looks interesting. In terms of visuals, its very sharp. Its a welcome addition to the Cube. Not many RPG's on Cube, so I guess we are lucky to be getting one of this calibur.

I am surely getting this but its missing what I likef from the other FFs , a Story line . I Will still buy this game , to kill time.

Bloodworth · « **Reply #4 on:** December 10, 2003, 05:50:51 PM »

Well, it's not missing a storyline so much as know English-speaking person really knows what the heck is going on.

akdaman1 · « **Reply #5 on:** December 10, 2003, 07:10:25 PM »

Well from what I heard the game does not rely to heavily on story telling. Anyway you have the import version ( dont you Bloodworth ? ) , so why dont you give us your opinion on the game. ( please )

If the one-player mode turns out to be long and fun, I'll get it. I don't have the resources to play multi-player

the_zombie_luke · « **Reply #7 on:** December 10, 2003, 08:20:48 PM »

I think the single player will be fun as well. Provided the gameplay isn't just fighting, and the puzzles aren't switch pulling caliber, and the story is at least good, I think it will be fun. I think Chronicles being real time was a good idea.

JGarcia050 · « **Reply #8 on:** December 11, 2003, 02:36:17 AM »

i think that the multiplayer will be the best part. It will be better for a lot of people since you don't need all 4 people to play. I will only be playing with my brother, otherwise it would suck cause i can't round up 4 people to play this game.

Bloodworth · « **Reply #9 on:** December 11, 2003, 05:56:33 AM »

I actually am doing a review on the game, it's just been slow-going since it doesn't come out until February, and I've had plenty of other more urgent reviews. I've given my opinion several times in different threads though. Multiplayer is certainly what the game was designed for, but I've been playing single player, and I still like it a lot. There isn't really much in the way of puzzles, you are basically trying to find all the treasures in a dungeon and navigating your way to the end. Story takes place as small events along the road when you're traveling. It has a gorgeous art style and a wonderful soundtrack.

All I can say is...thank god for Square. Although I don't play games quite as much as I used to, the Gamecube thus far (much like the 64) hasn't had too much of a rock 'em sock 'em RPG lineup. This will be one exciting game.

WesDawg · « **Reply #11 on:** December 14, 2003, 11:55:37 AM »

It sorta begins the RPG Landslide though, what with Baten Kaidos, Tales of Symphonia, and... wait theres only three, but thats huge for the Cube and they all sound like great games. I guess theres PSO3, Giftpia, Harvest Moon, and Pokemon Colosseum due out too. It should be a good year for the genre. Just being able to play Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga on my GBP has been nice enough though.

JGarcia050 · « **Reply #12 on:** December 22, 2003, 03:55:25 AM »

I just want to make sure......but can u play with only 2 people in the multiplayer version?

KDR_11k · « **Reply #13 on:** December 22, 2003, 05:02:11 AM »

There's no reason it shouldn't allow two players.

Bloodworth · « **Reply #14 on:** December 22, 2003, 08:04:09 AM »

Yeah, but playing with only two people is probably the most difficult combination. With one person you get a helper to hold the bucket. Having two people isn't all that different except that you switch off who's holding the bucket, but that person can still get hurt and drops the bucket when attacked, etc. It may just be a matter of changing strategy, but if I were you I'd try to get at least one more person to play with you.

Artificial Stupidity · « **Reply #15 on:** December 29, 2003, 05:08:37 AM »

I have been waiting forward to this game like cows have been waiting forward to the revolution of vegans. Neither have happened yet, but both are surely going to happen - sooner or later. The difference between these two events is that we know the date for Chrystal Chronicles, as in we are not sure whether the latter happens tomorrow or ten years from this very date.

Looks crisp, sounds fantastic and the hear-say has been very positive. Can not wait any longer!

Suyo · « **Reply #16 on:** December 29, 2003, 02:49:28 PM »

The game is ok single player, but if you can play multiplayer, then do it!! Yea as has been said you can play with only 2 players, but remember each player must use a gba, not a standard cube control. And id also suggest using 3 or 4 players, alot more fun that way, not just easier imo. Approx 2 months till the english release in US, hmm a PAL date still hasnt been heard of, or have I missed something?

Kyosho · « **Reply #17 on:** December 29, 2003, 03:05:21 PM »

Any of you guys know the replayability and length for single player? Most of my friends do not want to purchase a GBA just for this game. I looked at the IGN videos... vividly reminds me of Kingdom Hearts for the PS2.

Suyo · « **Reply #18 on:** December 29, 2003, 03:22:29 PM »

Well playing single player, youll get bored way faster then you will in multiplayer, but if you havent played multiplayer and only experienced single, itll proberly last you about the same amount of time, tho if you've played multiplayer, there's no goin back! Well there is, but ull find it gets quite boring

KDR_11k · « **Reply #19 on:** December 30, 2003, 06:14:52 AM »

According to NoE the game will release in Europe on 11.3.. I think I'll get it.
Suyo: That looks a whole lot like Keitaro (or something like that...) from Love Hina...

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #20 on:** December 30, 2003, 02:23:57 PM »

Because it IS Urashima Keitaro from Love Hina.

That pic looks like it was taken from the episode where he and Naru took a trip to Kyoto.

Suyo · « **Reply #21 on:** December 30, 2003, 03:38:59 PM »

yea....

Anyway, if anyone wants to read a review, goto the link in my sig, there is a great one there, and quite a bit of info too, dont hessitate to ask anything about the game, id be quite happy to answer right here.

PS: the sites going thro major updates, so it might look a little weird and a few bugs, but the review is working, which is what the point of this post was.

Mario · « **Reply #22 on:** January 17, 2004, 05:55:20 PM »

The newly launched official FF:CC website is pretty cool. Is that video trailer being shown in cinemas?

Hey look, you get a free GBA-GCN link cable for pre-ordering it. Isn't that nice.

kalipsoGamer · « **Reply #23 on:** January 17, 2004, 06:38:59 PM »

Sorry if this has been asked before but do you need the Game boy version and is it even coming out any more?? I havn't heard or seen anything on it.

Mario · « **Reply #24 on:** January 17, 2004, 06:42:05 PM »

No, you do not. There is no Gameboy version. You don't need any game in your GBA while playing.
