  • Best RPG of 2000 :)

  • Chrono Cross is trash.

  • @Axelhander Nah, Chrono Cross is pretty good. One of the best of its era, actually.

  • @piercecarradine Perhaps the Reptite dimension has more tolerance for laughable gameplay and fanfiction-level storytelling, but this isn't the Reptite dimension and I'm not impressed by trash.

  • @Axelhander Bad gameplay? To each their own I suppose. There are broken battle systems to be found everywhere - CC's quite balanced in comparisson.

  • @piercecarradine Indeed, Cross's battle system is "balanced" compared to broken ones. Unfortunately I require more than just something what compares favorably to things less good than itself.

  • This song works wonders for this battle.... suck what they did there

  • Kid is Schala's clone, as Belthasar puts it in his "Project Kid" plan. Kid went back in time from 1020 AD to 1010 AD to stop Wazuki from drowning Serge. Serge is just Serge, nobody from first game are related to him. Serge was sick at one point and Wazuki and Miguel were sailing him somewhere to get treatment but Serge's cries were heard by Schala who sent a lightning storm to direct their ship off course and instead sent them to Chronopolis where Serge came into contact with the Frozen Flame.

  • @frozen222 I take that back. Serge wasn't sick, he was mauled by a panther demon. Anyway, after coming into contact with the Frozen Flame, Serge became the Arbiter while Wazuki was corrupted by the Flame. The magnetic storm from Schala caused Chronopolis' defenses to fail, which allowed the three to go inside. As Arbiter, Serge was the only one now who can use the Frozen Flame, which was already being used by FATE to power Chronopolis.

  • Anyway, I love the ending, made me shed some tears. 

  • @frozen222 Me too

  • Awesome. 

  • Mammon Cannon LOFAO for an Arm Dats some Chrono Trigger Shit For You! All other RPG's Take Some Notes Chrono Trigger And it's Sequal Chrono Cross are and Always Will Be Thee Shit!

  • if serge beats time devourer in 1020 AD (im assuming here). Does Lavos still destroy the world in 1999 where Crono fights it and start over again.....time is very confusing

  • I really love this game soo much but since it has two disk the second part disk was broken :(

    anyway .. Chrono even recieved the perfect 10/10 score on gamespot :D

  • My biggest guess on why they put no music for this battle is so you could get the sequence of the elements right for the true ending, epic battle music is distracting.

  • Serge is the son of Schala... they both have blue hair. Kid is the daughter of Marle and Crono. They could be descendants if that's how far in the future Cross is from Trigger.

  • @WaterBender1337 umm no... Kid is an orphan. Lucca found her when she was a baby in the woods and took her in as one of her own.

  • A version of Lavos' Theme redone for CC would have been nice.

  • Kid is the daughter of Schala......

    Serge is the son of Lynx.....

  • How do i rescue princess, please tell the exact procedure. . .

  • @maninderkhangura

    cast the following elements in order : Yellow, Red, Green, Blue, Black, White

    It can be any type of element, offensive or defensive then after you cast those elements in proper order, use the chrono cross element then Tada !

  • Comment removed

  • @zarados2 actually i figuered it out.

    You just need all the six elements ( in any order )

    You dont need a accurate order. Just have six elements and play the seventh element Chrono Cross.

    Thanks anyways

  • i always thot schala looked like namine from kingdom hearts in this game haha

  • Wow this is some cool stuff. Tell me, please.,.,.,.,.,.,.,., is this an actual game being played and saved then uploaded. OR is this animation totally created? lol. This must sound like a dumb question, but I just "stumbled" across this video. I was Google-ing "In The Last Battle, NO ONE GONNA WIN...." and decided to watch some of this and am still watching. hehehehehehe *)(*

  • @PleiadianDragon I am appaled that you don't know Chrono Cross. Well it is a game, the sequel to Chrono freaking Trigger.

  • Chrono Trigger has already been remade in DS format, so there's a nice chance of Chrono Cross being remade for the same system, or the 3DS instead.

  • Okay, we all know Square Enix most likely won't remake Chrono Trigger or Chrono Cross in HD. ...Can't they at least make it into 3DS like Tales of the Abyss and Ocarina of Time?

  • Janus... Schala... why....

  • whats this song called?

  • ......Isn't Schala supposed to have blue hair like she does in Chrono Trigger? What the hell is with this blonde little girl...? =.=

  • @KingdomHeartsAvatar IIRC The people of Zeal actually dyed their hair blue.

  • so schala is Kid?

  • I never play chrono cross but this song is epic, what is the song's name

  • Epic music

  • In the fight if you use an element you get a pitch and when you merge all the pitches together you get the "A Faraway Promise" tune so you created the final boss battle music... INGENIOUS!

  • this is illogical how is it the in chrono cross the boss is the time devourer who is schala and in chrono trigger you fight the dream devourer is amazingly (dun dun dun dun) schala so unless schala can make identical copys of herself and not seem to die in a rip in time i dont see how schala can be the boss of this game and the big boss of chrono trigger (P.S if you dont know about the dream devourer in chrono trigger beat lavos 1 time and go through all the rifts then go to the end of time

  • @MyCrazycat12 Kid is a magical copy of Schala. so your entire reasoning was fucked off from the first statement, even if it was a metaphorical statement.

  • @yogurtman321 I thought I read that Kid was Schala's clone's daughter or something similar. We need a team of experts to analyze the story of Chrono and link everything together

  • @MyCrazycat12 they defeated schala/lavos in chrono trigger already, but Serge's death and then rescue by Kid eventually fucked everything up, so voila, schala/lavos lives again. someone correct me if i'm wrong, but if you think back on the time Serge discovered the frozen flame behind Nadia's Bell, the ghost kids (little versions of crono, marle, and lucca) will blame serge for messing up all their efforts to save the world.

  • Spoilers:Schala is Magus sistesr.

  • chrono break 4 the win they should realese it

  • not bad i would of used karst tell me why its schalla that i never uderstood

    magus was hero in the unrelesed game he saves her and she runs from queen zeal and queen zeal makes a sentinel that takes over time and void of time

  • not bad i would of used karst

  • my only question is, why is schala blonde?

  • i love how the music goes well with the battle but i especially love 6:10 where the gravity ball comes into contact with the enemy and the music compliments the action

  • Only game that made me....cry

    Yes it made me cry.

  • So basically the entire game was one giant scheme to free Schala?

    ...Geez, if you would go to that lenth, why not save the entire kingdom of Zeal while you're at it?

  • @Drowzee64 Not to save Schala, but to defeat the Time Devourer, when Crono and his friends defeated Lavos, they created a paradox, which sent Lavos to the Darkness Beyond Time, where discarded beings go, there, it merged with Schala and was about to destroy everything, so Balthasar, who is pretty much a good chessmaster, created a plan in order to defeat Lavos at the Darkness Beyond Time, saving Schala but at the same time fixing the paradox.

  • @DarkSilverCraig so according to CT DS, chrono and his party weren't able to defeat the TIme Devourer, and Magus was sent to the dimension where CC takes place, where later on he regains his memory. Then comes Serge and friends and were able to free Schala. But how come she is in child form.

    ehh...regardless best games ever

  • @drecklia I tend to disregard CT DS in terms of the new ending, as it is more like a retcon a LOT of years after the story really came out, so they should either remake CC in order to addapt it to CT DS or just LEAVE THE MOTHERFUCKING STORY ALONE. I mean, Square has been delaying an actual sequel for AGES and now they say "If fans really want a sequel, then they should buy the original game"... yeah, I'm no paying again for the EXACT SAME GAME I've paid for twice before

  • The first time I finished this game, the ending made me cry! :-(

  • @AraelXP I cried @ the end too! I also cried during the Tower of Geddon boss battle, when you fight Miguel..

  • I think the Chrono Cross is supposed to be the music in this fight. It makes the notes to the song in order of the elements you cast. Very ambient but I agree it would have been better to use the actual song instead of nothing. We can hear the notes of the elements just fine.

  • I really wanted there to be an extra scene if u put in Guille/Maske Magician in for this fight.

  • @etherealnine Some people think Guile is Magus, but he is not. His fate is sadly explained in Chrono Trigger DS.

  • @AraelXP

    During development of the game, he was originally suppose to be Magus, but that was dropped due to having too many characters and a his back story would have been complicated.

  • I remember playing Chrono Trigger as a rom a while back, and when I beat it, my buddy loaned me Chrono Cross. I remember the one thing I kept thinking after beating it was 'when is the next one coming out??'  that was about 8 years ago

  • there is a simple trick - chrono cross is lvl 8 but you can put it on the first slot - it will be chrono cross -7 but it work properly :)

  • schala had blue hair, what happened to it ?

  • Grobyc FTW

  • wow i wonder how schalas fighting herself

  • @MyCrazycat12 Simple. The Schala we see here is the original. While Kid is a clone. Yes. She is. Think about it. She is joined with Lavos to make the ultimate being -Time Devourer. Though trapped in her own nightmare. Creating a spawn was simple when she still had sense about her. *shrugs*

  • wats the connection between Chrono trigger and Chrono cross?

  • @youneveri assuming you played chronno cross, ill fill you in only in CT stuff.

    the final boss of CT was lavos, but after being defeated fused itself with schala to form the dream devourer. The dream devourer would evolve to the time devourer which is this final boss.

    also, schala sent kid (and her pendant) to lucca, who is one of the main characters in CT, so that she could raise her.

    there are more stuff, but the more you think about it, the more complicated it gets.

  • @manuel1471 Wow thank u very much.. Ur ryt the story is deep

  • Having music in the last boss battle would confuse the musical types, like me. I just relied on sound to put the right elements in. Still, this song does fit perfectly.

  • Chrono Trigger was better....

  • @thelostrune chrono trigger fans have troubles accepting CC. but Chrono Cross is as masterpiece as Chrono Trigger is. just on two different consoles. FUCK FF

  • @ChronoPhoenix ....

    1. Not same characters or design OR story.

    2. PSucks

    3. Chrono Trigger has 3 games (1 canceled) comming, these are: Chrono Trigger, Chrono Resurrection, Chrono Trigger: The Day of Lavos...

    4. Anyway...Chrono Trigger is a All-Time Strategy RPG (wich is my fav ^_^

    )

  • @thelostrune well, the psx probably had, along with snes, the best RPGs ever made. I'm proud to have chrono cross on it.

  • @ChronoPhoenix Agree...among the best RPG as I ever played.. cant stop me from falling love into it xp

  • @ChronoPhoenix -_-??

    Anyway...Akira Toriyama is so good with Character Designs on games ^_^

    My first Manga was Dragonball however...

  • i thought schala had blue hair, but maybe im thinking chrono trigger...

  • @KconkerInc there are hypotesis about this, like when zeal guys lose their magic ability their hair become normal. This works because the non magic people of 12.000 BC have normal hair..

  • Why does the entire HUD disappear during Element animations? Something special to do with the fight or...?

  • i always found this easy to just do red then yellow because then he does red so then follow up with yellow green blue black white and chrono cross.

  • I prefer it without music. It makes the point where it does come in much much stronger.

  • I agree with CaOmDaYn. Square probably wanted the players to focus on hearing the sound of the elements and encouraging them to use the chrono cross rather than the conventional way. But the song you put in fits nicely.

  • The FFVII fanfare played in the beginning and I came.

  • The Battle is incredible with this music playing. Of course, without it, it's better to hear the sound of the elements. Great video, and a favorite of mine.

  • is schala Magus's Sister or Mother?

  • @andretatontos

    sister

  • @TrueTydin Because i met her and janus in Chrono Trigger :)

  • @andretatontos sister

  • magus would be happy if he could feel happy

  • You can't hate this fight, or Dash, and Slash. XD

  • is it true that harle is the dark verision of kid, i mean they have the exact same stats, the same facial features, and when you go to the termnia they get the exact same fortune.

  • yellow red green blue black white chrono cross. i can't ever forget that pattern (i hope its right)

  • i guess the dream epilogue in chrono trigger is just a prologue of a boss battle now

  • People always get shocked at the fact that there is no music during this battle and yes it does suck, but Square definently had it's reasons for this. To me this is not actually suppose to be a fight, but instead a focus on freeing schala. They wanted to put emphasis on the song of life played by your elements to use with the chrono cross, thats why everything is so quiet.

    Thats really just my best guess i don't know if its 100% correct but just a thought is all.

  • You are right. You get a TERRIBLE ending if you just kill the Time Devourer without freeing Schala. The purpose was fighting not for victory, but for Schala's freedom.

  • @CaOmDaYn

    I agree. I think there may have been some artistic and/or creative reasons behind it as well, which may have been the inspiration for the SoL method itself. but I actually think it was a cool concept.

  • @CaOmDaYn I agree

  • @CaOmDaYn There is no music here because you have to create music in order to defeat Lavos forever. Sound is the 7th Element.

  • @CaOmDaYn I understand it's about freeing Schala and sometimes silence is good, but to me I think it doesn't work so well. The awesome background, the beast you have to fight doesn't seem right without music. You don't really silence these types of fights, especially if it's the last battle in the game. If it was just trying to free Schala, I'd understand, but you're not just trying to save her, you're fighting a beast as well, the same beast who was in the first game. They should have music.

  • you do know you can put the chrono cross element on lvl 1 right? that wouldve made it easier to cast.

  • one of my absolute favorite rpgs ever. i liked this game more than final fantasy, and ill probably like it more than final fantasy 13. loved chrono trigger also

  • Fuck you and fuck your spoiler title.

  • @MandyLovesYou99

    yeah i hate when that shit happens... last week, i opened youtube like every other day, and in my recommendations page, there was a video of Birth by Sleep with a very spoilery image... hate that bastard that made the video :s

  • This game is 15 years old..

    I bet you were pissed when someone told you that Darth was Lukes father.

  • 10 years.

  • The song fits so perfectly

    does anyone think it might have been a glitch that the music wasn't played?

  • @thedragoonknight

    Nah, I think it was deliberate that no music played. They probably wanted that. I mean, this is Square, who had some of the best final boss music in games, so I doubt they missed this in development.

    Its probably suppose to be symbolic: the darkness of time where everything goes to zero.

  • @PerfectGenius23 Regardless, Life ~A Distant Promise~ almost seems to go hand in hand with this fight, so I kinda wish they had used it instead of the ambience.

  • @PerfectGenius23 It's the same as FF7's battle against Jenova, after Aeris dies. There is a purpose for that difference.

  • @PerfectGenius23

    It['s because of the secret ending and how you achieve it. I assume artistically the nature of a void makes sense for a no music boss, but the song you put in is actually the song that plays of the notes to kill the boss.

  • @thedragoonknight

    No, because of how you achieve the secret ending.

  • @thedragoonknight No, because you are supposed to use the Chrono Cross here, which is essentially the 7th element or "sound".

  • you should have used luminaire for the final white attack for the CTlolz

  • They should make remake of this game for ps3

  • @Myncu Id Totally Buy it

  • @Myncu

    right now, i´d rather buy the game's ROM from the PSN

  • @Myncu it wasnt the real sequel

  • What the hell? Schala looks nothing like Schala

  • Basically, according to the Playstation version of chrono trigger, the people of Zeal dyed their hair blue and crap so they didn't look like 'normal' people.

  • Thats retarded

  • I agree. But thats the explanation given.

  • They really should have kept it somewhat consistent.

    I understand that Akira Toriyama is no longer the artist. But good god, at least have the basic designs the same.

  • rememer, you get a bad ending if you fight him.

    use elemtent to complete the element bar and you'll see the real ending.

    might in case you already know it that's fine, just one question. why not use double sword holder, "Glen" to make a combine attack with serge.? I plyed it around in few year ago. and played it numerous time because after you won it first time you get a fast fowart item to foward the game

  • Chrono Cross was not a terrible game. Its just that Chrono Trigger was ultimately a better game by comparison, but of course thats just my opinion

  • Wow, I would've never guessed you added the music if I didn't read the description. It's perfect.

  • Stupidest boss fight ever you have the play the color in the correct order it all depends on if lavos fucks up your elements no real fight at all

  • You have no idea how to manipulate the Stamina bars, do you? If you get everyone up to full Element levels, and then up to full stamina, and defend until JUST AFTER the Time Devourer casts an element, you have just enough time to cast six low-level Elements in a row, as long as you didn't bring characters who happen to have shitty Stamina Recovery rates.

    Once you complete the Chrono Cross's element sequence, you're actually in the clear, because Time Devourer won't attack or act again, ever.

  • o_o im still confused,so whats with how they show Crono,marle and lucca in this game,im sure our characters werent THAT young >_>

  • They're more like echos. The chibi-forms they take aren't supposed to be taken as their original forms.

    Mostly I just think it was their way of getting out of re-designing the characters to fit the new artists' style, actually.

  • to all those debating Final fantasy and chrono trigger - this is a fuckin chrono cross video...Stick to the topic

    peace

  • anyone notice how the Dark Robots Arm move is the same as Vash the Stampede in Trigun?

  • i agree with this dude

  • yea yea.  what you know about Xenogears

  • Schala's hair turned yellow when she merged with Lavos

  • shes blonde, but Schala has blue hair...

  • Love this game except for the middle when u have to play as Lynx. Strong start and ending but the middle dragged a little bit for my taste.

  • same... but what i really didnt like was the fact that the ending came so fast...

  • Kid is Schala's daughter-clone. It isn't the exact same person occupying the same space at the same time. They are as different as me and the bum that lives down the street.

  • I believe if you keep defending lavos will do most of the color order for you so you just have to do the last two with the chrono cross i'm not sure if you did it that way but i faintly remember doing it like that because the i kept messing up the order then i realized lavos essentially gave it to me lol it was also mentioned in a Game informer mag i had at the time

  • I never even knew what console this was for.

    I saw the new final ending for Chrono Trigger yesterday, and I really don't like it. It really is TOO dark and hopeless, and a complete reversal from the original endings..

    Anyway, this boss looks too weak to be a "Time devourer". I realize that's because the OP knows exactly what to do and when, but still.

    Nice to see they freed her after all.

  • The boss is much harder if you have absolutely no idea how to even fight him.

  • That ending was only added to kind of give people who played Chrono Cross a feel of what actually happened to start the chain of events with Dream/Time Devourer in the first place. It's like the final FMV sequence after the credits that gives a vague description of the Porre army invasion that leads to it being the dominant military force in Cross, as well as leading the player to finding Masamune again.

  • Thanks for the spoilers in the title

  • really?

  • well is been for whille but go to wikipedia and put crhono trigger ,crhono crhoss and crhono break read in the section of sequells

  • dude i just checked it didn't appear there, by the ay its chrono

  • Never has any game before this one made me go "What the hell is going on!?" so many times in my life, still a good game though, and I did got the hang of the plot eventually.

  • hows the song name what sound in battle?

  • the story of ir it kinda sad.. but what i dont know is how those if it is schala how she is in lavos ?

  • I really should have beaten this by now... but

    1. Of all the plates i stole i FORGOT to get the green one (FFFFFFUUUUUCCCCCKKKK)

    2. Where did my Revive element disappear to? wtf...

  • I would say that could be Schala, or it could be some random girl a lavos spawn on a different world picked up, he did come from space soo. O.o

  • have you even played the game?

  • Yea and chill i was joking about the lavos spawn stuff.

  • The time devourer is Schala mixed with Lavos, but being a sequel with completely different graphics, they made lavos a it different

  • Isnt the song called radical dreamers- a faraway promise?

  • Maybe Schala just weared an blue wig in Chrono Trigger? and her real hair color is blonde? GAHAHAHAXD

    //Sakuraflower90

  • That was because the people of Zeal dyed their hair blue, but she had since lost her color, now fused to Lavos.

  • That's not lavos.

    That is SO not lavos.

    It's a Time Devourer.

    And Lavos wasn't a Time Devourer, he was a fucking WORLD devourer.

    But the Time Devourer wasn't a very hard boss, he didn't do much. Compared to the dragons and FATE, Time Devourer was a piece of cake :C

  • Sorry it is lavos. The new DS chrono trigger conforms this. Also that's schala inside of it.

  • Even if it is Lavos, the closest it resembles is one of those Lavos spawns that you see up on Death Peak on CT. And I'd be willing to accept the fact that that IS Schala on its back, because CC's story was so convoluted anyway. That isn't to say I didn't like it though.

  • Well it's based on lavos' first form. And he does look like that.

  • i know u hate to hear it but it is the ds version really does confirm it and yes schala disappeared with lavos that is her as the rebirth

  • Yeah.

    I know that.

    I get it. :] I already conceded.

  • That is not Schala....Unless Schala really was some 6 year old in CT..or this is a totally different universe where Schala and Magus aren't nearly as badass as their true versions.

  • wahhahahaha!!!!

    Schala was in her mid-teens in CT......

    T_T

  • I thought so.

    So timeline wise CC comes before CT?

  • how is that possible? CT is all times XD
