• Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers; A Game the Wiimote Can Be Proud Of.

  

   For all us Final Fantasy fans, we know that the Crystal Chronicles series brought FF back to Nintendo, if with a face different from the RPG everyone knows. That being said, I'm excited for the new game in the series.
  
  I'm sure people have seen screenshots and videos, but if you haven't, here is a quick synopsis of the game: you play as a Crystal Bearer with telekinesis in a world where technology reigns, though only Crystal Bearers still possess magical abilities. It is a world ruled by the Lilties, the science-oriented tribe from the original Crystal Chronicles, where the Yukes, the magic using tribe also from the original, have almost been wiped out. Almost.

  Those especially interested, such as myself, probably also read a few things about the game; it's finally nice to see a game not geared towards family-friendly or casual play that will use the Wii Remote intuitively. To have such a well established series such as Final Fantasy come in and really use what the Wii has to offer is definitely a breath of fresh air. Of course, I'm assuming ahead of release that the controls will be smooth and using the powers accurate. I mainly say this because of several of my friends comments. According to them, the Wii games that they have played lack good use of the Wiimote and just good games for gamers in general.
  
  First off, is anyone else really excited for it's release on 12/26? And do you think Final Fantasy Chrystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers will change how people view the Wii?
