Just wanted to throw in that Crystal Chronicles is pretty decent, even in one player mode. It is alot easier and you get to see alot more of the feature of the game if you play with gameboys , even if its only in single player. When you have the gameboys you get the vaious maps, and the part where you paint and give the moogle a haircut have relevance rather than just something stupid to do on the side.
I haven't beaten the game yet. I bought it and played it for a few days straight and then put it to the side.But that's mainly because I'm always picking up new games every week. The levels i played were kind of neat and colorful, but if you're into traditional RPG games you might not like it as much. Basically you have to beat a whole level and defeat the boss, then you earn an artifact which permenantly adds to one of your stats like Strenth Magic, or spell slots. So leveling up is slow and isn't based on how many people you kill, but more how many times you run through particular levels to collect all the artifacts.
The big deal about the game boys is it basically becomes a whole new game with friends, because you can do combo attacks, and you all compete on certain goals in the level like not using magic on enemies . . and then whoever sticks to the goal listed on their gameboy for the level gets first pick when of the artifacts available in the game. Its kind of difficult to explain to someone, you really have to see it. But as everyone else has said, the game is alot better in multiplayer than single.
