Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
I just wonder because I placed my preorder down at EB Games today with a $50 gift certificate from Christmas, and got that free GCN/GBA cable deal along with it.. AND I just learned the game is $10 cheaper. That's like $30 cheaper than I expected.

I won't be getting the cable until I pick up the game when it comes out, which should be February 10th. I bought an extra one today just to avoid the rush. My original cable, the crappy Nyko one, is going on the original GBA so Dylflon can play. Then my other friend who just got SP for Christmas is going to buy his own cable, and we'll be set.

My bro's going to be the Human race, I'm going to be that Silver-haired race, Dylflon's going to be the Bird race, and my other friend is going to be that magical turnip person.

Damn, I can't wait for this game. Less than 2 weeks! I'll be counting the days. Then I'll be getting PSO 3. It's going to be awesome.

Me! Im going to get it! (as you can tell from my very excited FF:CC thread in the RPG Maniac forum. :))

Im going to be part of the Lilty tribe. (as you can guess by looking at my sig.) They may be tiny, but they have a lot of strength.

I am going to buy this game as soon as I can, and I should have enough money to get a gamelink cable also. My brother is also going to get a link cable, and he is going to be one of the Yuke tribe.

I have two other friends who will probably get this game, (both of them are members of gametaver, "Josh" and "theSlyMoogle") and I will probably do some gaming with them.

Im very excited. :D

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
I'd get the cables posthaste.. I doubt there's going to be any since it'll be such a hot item. :)

I also can't wait to meet my own moogle! That's going to be fun.

I plan on it. However, I don't know enough about the game to have picked my race yet.

Dyne 01-31-2004 04:23 AM

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
Heh, I just created a FF:CC sig if anyone wants to use it. I've got a Selkie avatar, Vampyr's got a Lilty. If anyone else wants to join the theme, PM me. We have spots open for each class (minus us two.)

Canyarion 01-31-2004 06:14 AM

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
I'll play. :D Hopefully the free cable deal comes to Europe, then we can use both our GameBoys. :)

Reviews haven't been great, I'll have to try it out first.

Ginkasa 02-01-2004 06:52 PM

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
Nope. I'm the only one I know with a GBA and link cable (and besides, my GBA screen's broken). Also, I don't know very many people who would want to actually play though the whole thing.

Multi-player just doesn't work for me... Never played Four Swords either...

I'm going to pre-order it tomorrow. I have two GBAs (SP and regular) but only one cable. I'll get the other one with this deal. Swcheeet!

because IGN gave it a 7.6? :p That was a bit of a surprise... Being Final Fantasy and a nice highly anticipated game I was expecting higher... But whatever...

I think it looks like a fun game, unfortunately I have no money to buy the game, let alone a GBA SP...

Your right, it does look like a sweet game. I dont care what the reviews say, this is my kind of game. :D

Sorry you wont be getting it. :(

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
Compared to other games out right now, and coming in the next month this game is low on my priority list... and take into consideration the fact that this game is supposed to be awful for single player gameplay and the fact that everybody who would play with me doens't have a GBA and well, you see why I'm not touching it.

It seems like it would be a cool experience, but I'll stick to being the guy who goes over some else's house who has a NGC to play,

Who told you that that's the reason? That's wrong, even before IGN gave it a 7.6 I really didn't care about the game. When it was announced it became my most wanted, but after the import came out, it didn't float my boat.

Lame story, need 4 GBA's to play multiplayer, hack and slash, no replay value, the whole crystal circle method, and all the other crap. All I have to say is that if you have 3 other friends with GBA's, 3 GC controllers, and link cables, get the game, but if you don't, don't waste your time and money.

Doesn't almost every FF game have no replay value?(only exception it seems now is FFXI and thats multi only and hack and slash with almost no story):unsure::p:unsure:

*awaits major bashing by any ffxi player and doesn't give a damn*

By replay value I also mean extra dungeons, bosses, secrets, items, etc... Crystal Chronicles has none of that, but FFVII, FFVIII, FFIX, FFX, including many other RPGs do.

Besides, I have played and beat FFVII more than once because of how great the game is. Most RPG's have those extra features, that's their replay value that brings you back to the game even after you've beat it.

I could care less about IGN's review, it has nothing to do with what I think about the game.

I want FF:CC.... but not if it's emphasis is on multi player... I don't really know anyone that will sit down and play it with me, let alone for hours on end. Also, I hear it's the best with a total of 3 people playing it. 0 chance of that happening for me.. lol

DeathsHand 02-02-2004 07:58 PM

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
I was just jokin' Crono Link (^-^

And yeah... I've beaten FF7 3 times (thoroughly) and FF8 2 or 3 as well...

FFX I think was twice.....

Yeah, sorry, I wasn't trying to be harsh, just honest. ^_~ But seriously, this game is pretty boring without multiplayer. Pretty much like Gaunlet Legends but more improved. :(

Yo, haven't seen you on these boards. What's up man.
About Crystal Chronicles, it's just my opinion, but on a scale of ten, I would give it a 6/10 for single player and a 8.5/10 for multiplayer.

Dyne 02-02-2004 10:04 PM

Thanks.. I'm relatively new.. I'm thinking about making a sig that says "The Token Gay Guy" so I become more known within the message boards... Back to the thread topic, I still might get the game, just to say I own it...

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
im not sure about this game

since i havent played the FF series since FF II i really didnt have any interests in it.
and since the only console system i have is gamecube, i dont know if i would even consider owning it, but my little brother would think otherwise.

it looks good and promising though :D

I will buy FF:CC... but only for the graphics, as I've heard that single player mode isn't that great, and I have no friends to play multi with... =(

Only for graphics...?

The game is still decent with only 1 player. Multi player is just much much more fun.

I will play it of course.... but since single player isn't that great supposedly, I'm gonna have to rely on graphics to keep me interested...

viruscool 02-07-2004 01:59 PM

Re: Who's going to be playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles?
 
The graphics look great, im just hoping the singel player and multi player are up to scratch. The problem with highly anticipated game such as this is that everyone hypes it up and then they turn out to be medioce (Sp?) games.
Not that im saying this game wont be good!

I got this game yesterday. It's not bad in single player mode, although it doesn't "feel" like a Final Fantasy game... still kind of fun....little repetitious. I'm looking forward to multi player though!

My local EB Games got thier shipment yesterday, so I asked if I could buy one of the 5 extra that they had in stock, and they said yes. =) This is why I never pre-order things. I have always been able to get things the day they come out, or the day the shipments come in. I was bummed that they didn't have Metroid: Zero Missions in yet, I guess I'll get that today. I also had to get another SP (Onyx and Cobalt now!) so my roomie could play with me. Anyway.. yeah.. I got the game a day in advance, and it's pretty cool.

Yay! I'm just back here from 4 hours of playing FF:CC. I must say, it is a gift from god. I haven't had so much multiplayer fun in a long time. It was me, my brother, Dylflon, and my other friend who were playing it. It's freaking awesome.

Anyway, cool! :D
