Agreed, it's actually looking pretty good. Then again, I really liked the original Chrystal Chronicles. I don't think this will be multiplayer though, which is something of a pity.
Let's just hope the gameplay will be fun and Square will keep the retarded stories they always use somewhat mellow.

I thought multiplayer was the entire point of the CC series; are they really getting away from that with Crystal Bearers?

Crystal Bearers is the single-player take on the CC world, while the other cross-platform CC title is for multiplayer.

so yeah this finally seems like a game worth looking forward to. something that i need to play, not that im surprised.
well, actually i am, i thought the long radiosilence was because they had decided to start from scratch or something (wasnt the last trailer 2005?), so what have they done instead i wonder? filled the game with unimaginable amounts of polish and content?

Square-Enix, as usual, sets the bar for how good games can look. They've been able to pull dark sorcery out of the DS and PSP, and now that's easily the best-looking Wii game I've seen yet. I like the action-RPG kind of feel I'm getting from the vibe, and I hope it's fairly robust. I'm playing through FFCC: Ring of Fates on DS right now and while it's pretty good, the combat still feels too simplistic for my tastes.

It looks good but I don't see anything better than FF12 there. Not that that's a bad thing, FF12 looked awesome.
If I remember I heard the main character is sort of a superhero archetype, which is funny since it looks like his power is basically Syndrome's zero-point energy.
7.0
Shadow Assassins is a solid stealth title that can be both fun and frustrating, a mix of truly impressive features and clumsy missteps. [Feb 2009, p.88]
And some site that I've never heard of (Gameplayer?) gave it a 9.0:

Perhaps best of all, though, the developer has managed to create a graphically rich and detailed version of 13th Century Japan that’s positively dripping with atmosphere. Read Full Review
I'm curious to see what IGN says, as I'm thinking about picking it up. If it's a 7's or 8's game it will probably get my money.

That video looks pretty sweet. Nice to know the past year of worry that it was canned was unfounded and it was just more of Square being tight lipped about their games.
I'm really looking forward to both FF on Wii and ps3. I think it says a lot that the actual gameplay looks much more fun on Crystal Bearers, at least from what little I've seen.
That being said, I need to finish the original, which I've never done.
Yeah, same here. I actually bought it not long ago, since I never got to play it, but it just kinda fizzled out. Not that I don't like the game, but it happened with Paper Mario as well.
I am sad to see that they replaced the old Bowser sprite, though. 'Cause, really, it doesn't get any better than this

All creature will die and all the things will be broken. That's the law of samurai.
Best price I can find for somewhere that will ship out of Australia comes to £68, but I am still looking.
Uh the website I linked to supports international shipping, and shipping to Holland was 8 AUD, which brings the total to 98 AUD, which is about £45.
It should be pointed out that $98 is almost (Short by $2) the price of most new (And sadly old) games in Australia. So getting the Collectors addition through JB Hifi is cheaper then buying the regular version elsewhere. The lesson in this is JB Hifi is awesome and I need to move to a town that has one.
The Crystal Chronicles game that comes out Friday in Japan is.
And its coming here, to these, our United States of America, by the end of March.
Two month turnaround is something of a Square record.
DS/Wii. Online. Improved Ring of Fate system. Droool. Seemless movement between Single and Multiplayer, ala CC classic, but more freedom and the ability to play with anyone on the planet.
by the way, i only just realized... with all the multiplayerfocus that dragon quest 9 is getting, isnt it very likely they will do the same thing with that one?

Awesome! I'd been thinking about getting Boom Blox, for the cool physics craze that it was, but now I'll just hold off on getting the sequel. This is a good week people!

This is so good.
What's that in £? About 40? Pretty awesome deal.

The thought of playing pretty much the entire game in the guts of another character is creepy as fuck.
I mean, I had trouble with Jabu Jabu for fuck's sake.
That being said, I need to finish the original, which I've never done.
