Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles

[Flamin Skull]

I am hearing alot about FF:CC but havent played any of them but I enjoy the Final Fantasy series (all before VIII) Its supposed to hit the WiiWare section sometime this year (I'd bet in the summertime) does it play like traditional RPGS? or does it play like Shining Force?

There's one Crystal Chronicles out yet, and it's nothing like an RPG at all.
It's an 4player-hack'n'slay if you have 4 GBA's and 4 Gamecube-Link-cables.
It's a 1 player hack'n'slay - but you can play 8 player alternate - if you have no GBA's.

As for the two new Crystal Chronicles games - I only hope you don't need 4 Nintendo DS to get the full gameplay.

Surprised no one made a thread like this before. I'm getting it, looks awesome

Yeah... like SKTTR said... no DS's required for some multiplayer would be an awesome feature.

I've looked into ths more, and it's not really what i thought it was gonna be. Instead of going to find treasure, you make other people get your treasure. But that's not a negative thought, and It's not stopping me from downloading this one.

I definitely won't be getting it. The GCN FF:CC is a terrible excuse for an arbitrary Final Fantasy name tack-on brand-pimp cash-in. The WiiWare game looks completely different, but it's still not an RPG—it's more of a SimCity game that takes place in a crapped-down, vaguely Final Fantasy setting.

Instead of Simcity, it's more Actraiser w/o the sidescroller. >.>

Nothing I read about the game is appealing to me. Square Enix can try to nickel and dime all they want, they won't be getting a penny out of me for this underwhelming game.

I'm a sucker for anything Square has to offer =p

Hi, new member....I just downloaded "Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as King" today and I started playing it for a few minutes....

First things, first. It's pretty. It is really pretty. The graphics are very amazing and are definitely in the style of Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts.

The gameplay is interesting too. It's mostly talk to people, build stuff, talk to more people, but I'm one of those gamers who is into empire building games like Civilization, Warcaft, and Age of Empires, so it's a good fit to me.

I've only played 30 minutes of the game, but I'm looking forward to playing it a little bit more. Gotta beat Okami first, though.
