Perfect

Gamecube's best

I really do not understand why this game is getting such a bad rap. I thought this game was one of the Gamecube's best games.

It is 2010, and I still play this game occasionally. The graphics are amazing for the GC, the storyline is amazing by any standards. No square enix game deserves less than a 9, including this one.

The multiplayer was extremely fun, although it was annoying to have to hook up the gameboys I will admit. But the gameboy controller did help a lot. There was no stopping when someone had to switch some spells around, because they could just do it on their gameboy.
The leveling up was fun as well. When playing with a group there is a lot of strategy that goes into it. One person may train defence, while another trains magic, and so on in order to defeat a boss or a level.

The world seems endless, and each time I re do a level to train I find caves and monsters I did not notice before. There are hundreds of levels, dozens of towns, and several regions to keep you attention.

You do not have to be a FF fan to enjoy this! if you have a gamecube try it out!

Not for the lonely

This game was highly recommended from family members. I knew it was geared more toward multi-player but since it did have the option for single-player mode, I decided to give it a shot. The game is quite beautiful. The story is a little weird but hey, it's a Final Fantasy game. Single player mode is not the best part of the game. I never got a chance to play multi-player before returning it. But for single player, it was confusing, it's kind of a pain to fight and being limited as to what kind of armor you could wear really sucked. If you will have the opportunity to play this game with a few other people, then give it a shot. But if you are mainly a solo gamer....I'd pass on this one.

I know a lot of people aren't big on the whole Crytal series, but when Crystal Chronicles came out, I thought it was pretty darn good. It was the game that got me into the Final Fantasy series. I rented it recently since I haven't played it in a good 4 years or so. In my opinion its still fun and pretty easy to control with a gamecube controller.
