FFCC: The Crystal Bearers is a bit different than some other the other mainstream entries in the Final Fantasy series, but that doesn’t mean that the game can’t stand up to the quality of previous titles. A preview scan of the latest Nintendo Power is currently live on the magazine’s official website. Here’s the encouraging news, though. According to Nintendo Power, The Crystal Bearers is “one of the most exciting Final Fantasy games in ages.”

“The development cycle for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers has been an unusual one. When Square Enix unveiled the game more than three years ago at E3 2006, it looked impressive, sure, with all indications pointing to a typical multiplayer Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles game, albeit now on the Wii system. But little information about the game followed; other Crystal Chronicles titles came and went, but news about The Crystal Bearers was nil. At one point the game was rumored to be canceled. But earlier this year the developers proved that that was not the case. The Crystal Bearers re-emerged, and it was unlike any Final Fantasy we’d seen before. The game sported a new look, a new single-player focus, a new hero, a new emphasis on stylish motion-controlled action, even a dynamic new logo. Nintendo Power recently had a chance to delve even deeper into the world of The Crystal Bearers, and after spending a few hours there, we have no qualms declaring that this is one of the most exciting Final Fantasy games in ages.”

Thanks to KaY for the news tip!
