Chrono Cross

[Edwin VanCleef]

Please discuss the game Chrono Cross here... I hope you played the game with joy like I did, because to me it is the best game ever... With tears in my eyes I watched the "good" ending... Unbelievable

Anyway, tell me how you liked that game. Although it's an old time game.

[haloOfTheSun]

It's not really that old... and I think it's extremely overrated. I liked Chrono Trigger way better, just couldn't get into this one.

However, the music is awesome.

The day 3-dimensional games are considered "old-time" is the day I revoke my status as a gamer.


I never had the opportunity to play Chrono Cross (no psx, heh), but it had Lucca make a cameo appearance and that makes it awesome by default.

[GilgameshRO]

Chrono Cross is pretty awesome. Been a long time since I've played it though...

[Arrow]

I haven't played. Another title for my DL list I s'pose.

[&&&&&&&&&&&&&]

You should play Chrono trigger first (you don't need to) that is if you haven't.

[SexualBubblegumX]

I loved Chrono Trigger but I hated Chrono Cross. Cross had too much crap that contradicted Trigger.

What about Super Mario RPG? Technically, that was 3d, and it's about 10 years old.

[Arrow]

I crushed trigger. AND smrpg, which was the best RPG I have ever played. (Pretty much.)

[:)]

have never played either one....(feels bad)..

[Edwin VanCleef]

Well if you're a Chrono fan and you didn't play Cross, you really missed something in my opinion...

Not only is it awesome to meet old characters from CT again, but also the new story and characters are awesome.

[Blizzard]

I've played Chrono Cross a bit and I didn't like it too much. Although it has an interesting Battle System. Quite original.

[&&&&&&&&&&&&&]

I loved the music in that game... except the battle music...

Not really, it was just isometric with some super-high-def sprites.  Landstalker used very similar platforming... although it skipped out on the high quality sprites...

But you could move along 3 axes of movement. up-right/down-left, up-left/down-right, and you could JUMP. That's 3 dimensions of movement right there, Yossy. 3-Dimensional. Primitive, perhaps, but still technically 3-dimensional.


And if you don't buy that ( ) what about Starfox?

[Malson]

I played Chrono Cross years ago. Never really got into it. But yeah, I'll agree that it has the best soundtrack of any video game ever.

[Tsunokiette]

I have to agree that it's not the best game ever.

But, once again, it has a great soundtrack. As I've mentioned before, I taught myself to play the flute by playing sheet music printed from the midis.

Also, while not the best, it has great playtime in it. After the first time through, you are ready to own any boss in the game, so it's not hard, the game actually becomes pretty easy. But you have *shifty* MULTIPLE ENDINGS. Just like Chrono Trigger. And you have the choice of completing the game at any point.

The initial story for CC was great. However, they didn't connect CT and CC like they should've. THey were extreemly weak in that department.

Ever heard of this?

This is the music's true form!

[Malson]

sup two years ago

[Tsunokiette]

Ever heard of this?

This is the music's true form!

*drools*

I love music.

[Edwin VanCleef]

Ever heard of this?

This is the music's true form!

oh yeah... I just can't get enough playing this over and over again 

[Yossy]

I'll be sure to download that once I'm on a faster computer.

Man, I really need a PS1 emulator.

ps1 emulator's are all over google.

[Lavata]

I loved this game so much. Music was awsome, so were the graphics.

The story, hwoever, could have been made a little easier to understand. I didn't like reading 20-25 boxes of text before the final boss just to summarize what happened in the story.

BUT....I still think Crono Trigger is the better game. It had a better story and all that. And...is was just more addicting and fun.

Yes, I know where to find them, but thank you anyway.  As I said, I need to wait until I have access to a faster computer...

I agree with Lavata... CT is way addicting.
