Final Fantasy: Ring of Fates trailer
And rounding up the recent deluge of Square-Enix trailers from their annual Jump Festa event, this Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates trailer certainly impresses. There's some shiny text, and then a long, confusing sequence in which one tries to focus on five different scenes in the picture at once. Leave it to SE to try and simply overwhelm your senses ... they're rather good at that.
The original Crystal Chronicles was a bit of a let-down, but this title can hopefully bring FF:CC out of the "crappy Final Fantasy spin-offs" category. Oh, and for a slightly higher quality version of the trailer, click here for the official movie from Square-Enix's website.
(And did anyone check out what appeared to be a stylus-based fire spell around 1:41? Awesome.)

(Page 1)2. CC on 'Cube had 3 problems:
1) The Bucket
2) Need for a 'Cube, GBAs, AND cords.
3) Clunky Menu system (it needed 2 screens)
The DS version fixes it all (I hope)! It's like the series was custom fit for the DS!

6. The dungeons appear to be isometric, as opposed to top-down, as the GameCube version was. Personally, I think that's a great improvement.

1. Looks awesome, I can't wait until this comes out. Square's making a hell of a lot of FF games for the DS. Games seem like they're just now starting to fully take advantage of the DS's power.
