I'm a FF Fanboy, flat out. But I haven't tried Crystal Chronicles yet, mostly because I don't have a GameCube. I do, however, have a GBA/SP, and a good friend of mine also has an GBA/SP and a 'Cube. Has anyone full out tried playing FF:CC with friends using their GBA's? Whats the opinion on it? Thanks

I could do with asking the same question.

Although I am sure Four Swords is supposed to be miles better at the whole link up thing

my lil brother has it and we had lots of fun with it.....
i find it to be a really cool game though i think they could of done a bit better with the whold link up thing and yes..... rubenbaraja is right.. four swords uses the link up much more and better than ff:cc

I liked FF:CC... my girlfriend and I played through the game and had a blast. One neat thing is that when you are wandering around towns, and one of you goes to a merchant the merchant screen shows up on the gameboy, not the TV. I think it was best with 2 players... we played it a few times with 3 or 4 and it just got either too crazy with so much happening or too easy. Either way, it's all sorts of fun trying to get the combos off.

I played it for a while (rented it) with some friends. I loved it except for one little thing: THAT DAMN CHALICE!

It was so annoying having to carry that thing around everywhere. So annoying, in fact, it made me not want to play the game again.

LOL yeah! it wasnt enough to make me stop playing it but me and my brother would always fight about who holds the chalice...

Yeah, I played this game with one other person with a GBA and I hated it. Between constant cut scenes with endless dialogue, slow travel, redundant gameplay and one of us having to carry the cup around, I had trouble playing this game for a second time.

I have four swords and CC. The person holding the chalice is at a disadvantage when fighting enemies, and you always need someone holding that damn thing. Getting combos down is pretty hard to coordinate, but necessary for some of the bigger enemies. When I played it with my friend, I was incredibly irritated.

Four swords is fun if you can get 4 people to play, otherwise, you get a gimpy Link following you around. It's much more mission based, so you can play in short installments.

I would like to see more games with GBA/Gamecube linkups. It's a great idea, and not nearly used enough.

With the DS arriving it will probably used even less
