Ya know...

Why cant they just release a game like the original CC and put it online with DS support.

That'd personally make me and about two other people happy.

@hop3less: I thought it was called "Echoes of Time."

This sounds fine and all, but why did they have to sacrifice the CC series for this experiment? I was hoping SE would make an actual CC game (online multiplayer dungeon-crawling hack 'n' slash) from the ground up for the Wii instead of this mongrel. I suppose that just isn't in the cards this generation.

I'll wait and see how this turns out. Right now, I don't plan on purchasing it, but it may turn into something that makes me change my mind.

@Do Kesubei: This is not the first game to forego the style of gameplay found in the first Crystal Chronicles title (MLaaK, MLaaD). And it is not as if SE has completely discarded that style considering the existence of Ring of Fates and Echoes of Time on the DS.

@Sebnotic: Needed for a complete breakfast: and completely lost mine.

When this game was announced with its teaser trailer waaay back I thought to my self.

"A fully 3d (not topdown) real-time finalfantasy combat game with all the spell customization and blending that CC ad without the multiplayer gimmick? Sign me up, that sounds awesome"

now it has turned out to be just another waggle fest game... I wish the Wii had tanked sometimes. Sure, we wouldn't have Mario Galaxy or Prime 3, but Twilight princess? It would have a left handed link, and no waggle controls.

@Anshrew: You can still have left-handed Link and no waggle controls on your Wii. All yoy have to do is buy the GC version like I did.

This is looking like some combination of Zelda and Force Unleashed. I...think I'm okay with that, actually.

@mjn328: When you put it that way, it sounds a lot better than it had been sounding in my head. I was hoping for something a little more JRPGish, and those hopes keep getting progressively dashed a little more with every successive report. Yet, this still looks like a keeper.
