............FF footage? Good grief, they are morons! It is more like a screen shot!.... of three character with extreme camera flare! I am guessing the "FF 'Footage'" is the three heads in the bottom strip at the end of the video. The little bit Under the Zelda Strip. That is not footage. That is nothing. To get the best look, pause the thing, and use the Seek bar thing to skip it to the end....

It's that short??? Usually the videos they show are longer... Wow, it must be crap then (early development stages or something). Actually I know it's only a brief thing from a commercial...but still. PGC really played it up as some fantastic thing, and IGN has a link to it too (but of course, you have to be a INSIDER to access it). *IGN extotionists* ZL <img src=http://bishydbd.netfirms.com/ZL.gif> <img src=http://bishydbd.netfirms.com/zhugeliang.jpg> Empires wax and wane; states cleave asunder and coalesce.

Not only is the whole thing short, but the "FF Footage" is a fraction of a second long. Blink, and you will miss it. It advertises the GC as a whole, so shows others games too....

Here's a link to the whole commercial: <a href="http://www.mynameisbingo.com/video/ffccad.mpg">www.mynameisbingo.com/video/ffccad.mpg</a> While the FF stuff was short, this is worth viewing!!! ^_^ ZL <img src=http://bishydbd.netfirms.com/ZL.gif> <img src=http://bishydbd.netfirms.com/zhugeliang.jpg> Empires wax and wane; states cleave asunder and coalesce.

It worked for me earlier. I saw the entire commercial. It was really awesome!!! Right now it doesn't seem to be working though...alas. That was really cool to look at. Maybe evil IGN shut it down or something...darn extortionists. ZL

The full video is much better!!! That is what I call footage, and some pretty good stuff as well! And the Footage onthe other games is great too! I now understand what all the fuss is about, with this full version... yes indeed.... Much better! AND OH! The name is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicals apparently.... And also, is it just more, or does the visual style remind me of a mixture of FF9 and FFT? There seems to be quite a few characters on screen, so is it possible they are doing it in the fashion of FFT, or some other slightly different way from usual?

Bah, I have the PS2 and don't have the GCN... :( Ah well, I couldn't even tell which is FF. I don't think it was the people with guns so was it that little kid? Hmmm, a style similar to FFT would be good, though. It's my favorite FF game, next to FF9, of course. <center><A HREF="http://pub29.ezboard.com/bjoetwosezboard" STYLE="cursor: crosshair"><IMG SRC="http://j2iswin.netfirms.com/images/Asuka02.jpg" Border="0" Alt="click my shameless plug....."></A></center>

Yeah same here. Now I have to gt a GC and GBA for Final Fantasy games.

Here's some screen shots from the GC's FF... <a href="http://www.planetgamecube.com/media.cfm?action=screens&id=761">www.planetgamecube.com/me...ens&id=761</a> I don't know... The characters look like hampsters to me... ^_^ I'll wait and see if it's really good to get my grubby hands on it... I have my doubts... I look more forward to Skies of Arcadia Legends. Last I've heard of it, it'll have new characters, reduced random battles and slightly improved graphics. ^_^ At least, it has a tried and true gameplay. ^_^ Since I've never played the original, it'll probably be awesome for me. ^_^ Edit: Hehe, forgot the link... ^_^ Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub19.ezboard.com/udrunkntaichimaster.showPublicProfile?language=EN>Drunkn Taichi Master</A> at: 9/22/02 12:02:51 pm
