The gameplay mechanic sounds fun.
The Battle Portion Would be Extremely Awesome with Ricard From Final Fantasy 2, Kain From Final Fantasy 4, And Shadow And Gogo From Final Fantasy 6.
My list would be:CloudSqualZidaneTidus
UPDATE: I checked the trailer.. I don't know why but I was not that impressed..
Overall gameplay aside. FF is still FF, will get this for sure.
I really enjoyed demo and i defo thinking getting game!!
Wow! I was skeptical but... THe demo is such a high quality piece of software - Day 1 purchase for me!!!!!
I'm definitely running with an all FFVI/FFIX team as soon as I get the chance: Terra & Locke and Zidane & Vivi.
My favourite e-shop demo so far cannot wait till this comes out.
Dam cute game.
I never had any hopes for (nor an interest in) this one. Then a few days ago I saw the demo in the eShop and decided to at least try it, seeing as I had nothing to lose. Even if I wasn't crazy in the idea of an FF-themed rhythm game (although I love much of the series), I have some interest in the genre, having played StepMania a lot in my childhood/preadolescent years. Well, I'm sold. Yet another game I cannot afford right now!
Other than that, it's a high quality music game. I enjoy it far more than EBA.
Number of players*
That was weird.
I preordered the game and so far am glad I did. Its really addictive once you start playing The music is beautiful, and the gameplay is fun. It gets challenging, but is easy to pick up even if you havn't played music games much before. The RPG element adds more fun and replay. I think they really did it right for a good music game, when they could have gotten away with something mediocre.
Does anyone think there's any possibility of them releasing more characters as DLC? I know you can buy extra songs. I still like the game a lot, but was a little sad not to see some of my favorite characters available (they pretty much stuck to the main hero from each game and a random assortment of 16 other unlockable characters). Granted I understand they didn't want to do too many characters, since they can level up to 99 and that takes a long time, but everyone has different favorites I'm sure they'd like to see.
I got this game today! FABULOUS!
Extremely High Levels of Production! - plenty of content! and also DLC which is nice to add!
Also - the gameplay is excellent! excellent Excellent!
It looks interesting, as I'm a big RPG fan, but I'll be waiting for a demo to test out the controls for myself.
over rated.. this game is by no means equal to the other 9/10 titles. i own it, and have been playing it. its more like a 7/10 game honestly.
I have played many rhythm games and i would give Band Bros Daigasso a 10/10 when it comes to rhythm games. Look it up. its for the DS and you have to import it. The only downer for that game is that all the songs are either jpop or classic and game music. so more variety. and you use all the buttons, up down left right L R a b x y and the touch screen. Where as in this game you only use the touch screen and that gets repetitive and less challenging after a while. Can you imagine if you had to push all the buttons? now that is Daigasso band bros 2 for you! look it up on youtube
good...hate some choices of the songs...
Only had this game for a few days and it is so addictive! So many things to unlock. Very fun rhythm game. I think the rating gets a few extra points just for the nostalgia factor, but I'd definitely say if you've played any of the FF titles and enjoyed them then you might want to check this out. Helps there is a demo out there too.
Does anyone have a copy of theatrhythm so someone can play with me online? I want to get past this really annoyingly fast dark note. It's judgement day from final fantasy seven and battle one from final fantasy four. It sounds good but it goes way too fast
for anyone that has only seen videos and not played the game themselves yet honestly its a must buy. i only bought it because there was no game cards left that i wanted to buy so picked this up for £20 just for a laugh final fantasy should not work as a music game but add levelling up items powers high scores some battles and a load of levels and music to master its amazing it doesn't even feel like a spin off it just plays so well and unlock ultimate score then all you people with a love for hard and annoying levels which i do then this is for you my friends oh and there's add on content cheap as anything 90p in the uk for a track one more thing i have heard but don't know that some versions don't have the card collection but you can earn trophy's that when you get you know they were well earned an that's the main thing at the end of the day. from me 9/10 i just think its really fun as soon as you find out its not what you thought it was its even better.
oh and my party is cloud squall tidus and lightning who im going to swap for bartz or terra soon till i unlock siefer if that's spelt right.
