It is a shame not many people play these kinds of games anymore, games like these that make us understand more. you know what people in my class play? fucking call of duty bullshit like that. I swear it sickens me and also makes me sad. The generations to come will be swimming in shit if we dont bring these games back. I am just 14 years old and I grew up playing RPGs.
Yes GameMasterSoko.. I heard Yasunori Mitsuda had an ulcer because he worked so hard on this soundtrack (and probably anxiety from it being his first soundtrack). Nobuo Uematsu had to finish the last peices to the soundtrack while Mitsuda recovered.
Of all the songs I have ever heard in my life, I can honestly say this is my favorite one. It really touches the soul. I truly feel the emotion behind this one. Mitsuda said that he had dedicated this song to someone that he wanted to share a generation. Possibly someone he had feelings for. He is an amazing composer.
I both adore and hate this song. Adore because of its sheer beauty and nostalgia, and hate because hearing it meant that the best game of my childhood, Chrono Trigger, was coming to an end......*sniffles*
Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which is electronic music inspired by great games such as Chrono Trigger. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
I like how people like us can just gather to listen to the awesome music of the past and reminisce without the hatred of the internet breathing down our necks.
I will forever miss old jrpg's for the brilliant imagination it brought to us. Now we have games like FFXIII that lost track of what made it so special, imagination. I guess in this reality people favor graphics over storytelling.

Just get ZSNES. The DS version is even worse than the PS1. Loading times is one thing, but you don't mess with the script of the greatest RPG ever made.
That makes no sense. I mean, you can count the original translation as a way of messing with the script as well. After all, the ACTUAL real script is the Japanese one, and believe you me, the 1995 NTSC script takes a lot of liberties and has a couple of glaring flaws.
Doesn't mean I dislike it, but the fact is that the DS script is a lot more faithful to the original, so it actually messes less.
@Sejr Ugh, no. I don't give a damn about the stupid Japanese one, I don't give a damn that the game is made by a Japanese developer. Yeah, the DS version is more accurate and if that's how it was translated in the first place it wouldn't be half as good as it was. Woolsey improved every script he was given, and damn me for still buying Square's trash when everything since has been the same melodramatic otaku fanwank. Square itself sucks, Squaresoft USA made their games worthwhile.
@Sejr To me, Square is like a drug dealer that gives you the really awesome stuff at the beginning to get you hooked, then slowly switches it out for less and less potent drugs so you have to buy more because you're addicted and can't help yourself, and now you realize you're addicted to shit and hate your dealer but you can't stop buying from them. I loved CT, FF6, SMRPG, and Secret of Mana. FF7, 9, 10, and 13 were ok, 8 and KH are garbage, at least 12 was good. The remakes make me rage.
Agree with you on your main point you are making about square. However, I hated FFX with a passion and 12 was just horrible. Pretty much everything that came out after 9 was such utter crap. I don't care about graphics, I just care about great stories with great characters. Square sure has changed; but now I realize why they changed their name to "Square-Enix" Because they didn't want to shame the old Square name with making garbage.
funny you should say that, i had an snes and i hate my parents to this day for busting it and this game b/c i played too much . ah , dysfunctionality !
@chillerduesi Not as long as publishers are on the throne.
Down with constricted creativity and design decisions made by marketing fools. Long live independent development, long live passion and art, LONG LIVE -GOOD- GAMES!
I remember playing this song at the end of a presentation in elementary school, and the teacher ended up giving us >100% lol, I'm pretty sure it was the song. Good times.
Wow, I have never heard this song before and it made me cry a bit, chills of epicness on my back right now...I just ordered this game from Ebay because of that...
I remember seeing this game in Nintendo Power, (the cover had the Virtual Boy on it.) and I remember reading for almost a whole hour just being amazed; then I went to the kitchen and showed my mom and said, "I want this game!" She later rented it for me and I couldn't wait till Christmas day of 1995. When I finally got it, I knew it would be my favorite game of all time. No game has affected me like this one has.
Simply put, one of the greatest games of all time!!
It is fitting that a game who's plot is so tied to the idea of time and chronology would be so utterly timeless and remain a pure gaming experience as the clock of life ticks on and on
@chosentonessournotes Men, not only they don´t have a soul,,, tehy just seem to don´t be alive at all,,, this is not just a melody... it´s THE melody,,, =)
I this a seriously RANKED list??? if not, non said.
I mean, this song.. on 232?? Are you insane?? This is pretty much the most awesome track EVER created, at one of the most epic moments ever to have happended.. The ending of CT was so good it just had to be some sort of accidental act of god
If this is a ranked list. Please check out number 10.. I just came across it.. compare that track to this one.. someone had to be very drunk or very retarded
I've fallen in love with Chrono Trigger, it is the greatest game ever concieved. This song brings back so many memories, I have never heard this song without crying. I never wanted this game to end, when everyone went back to their own time period I couldn't help myself but cry, I had grown attatched to them, they were my family. A song and a game as beautiful as this will never come again, so cherish it while you can, love it, let it control your emotions and your thoughts. Thank you so much.
So I pause this music for a second at 1:45, probably the most epic part... look up at the T.V and hear this old guy say "I had to do things to a man to get the dope." Totally killed the magical moment I was having.
When I heard this song, I was at the verge of crying. Why? Because I had just beat chrono trigger. I felt sad for all those new, amazing experiences I would never be able to completely recreate. And now I move on...
Fact: Mitsuda broke down crying upon hearing his music played during the ending, this music. You know the music is awesome when the person who made it cries at how beautiful it is.
Too all you kids saying you wish you could have been born in the time when CT was released... You were! It was on the DS, and although not a perfect port, it was great. I enjoyed it very much, and even though the exclusive content was nothing more than fetch quests, I dug it very much. You may not have been born in a time when this game was FIRST released, but SquareEnix was kind enough to re-release it to allow you youngsters the opportunity to experience just what we did in 95.
You know, as a young whippersnapper it's great to see a bit further into the future, but if I could have been born to be a kid when games like Chrono Trigger came out, I wouldn't have it any other way. :')
This theme. This theme is the BEST theme from any RPG. It is a song that is filled with hope, knowing that you did save the world from a dark future. With the Epoch jetting through TUIme seeing Frog with the Guardia Knights, Robo with Atropos, Ayla and Kino flying on Dactyl and findally Magus flying off into the sky, this theme is so perfect. God I love this game.
It's hard to believe that, over winter break three years ago, I simply came across this game in a bin of old SNES games my dad used to play with no idea what it was. Before I realized it had an awesome story, I got hooked because I had heard a MIDI of the battle music online somewhere before (again having no clue to its origin) and liked it. To suddenly come across it in a game I knew nothing about was a moment of awesome.
Other than watching my dad play Legend of Legaia and the Final Fantasy series as I grew up, this is probably single-handedly responsible for thrusting me into a love of RPG's. It also solidified my stance of the SNES being my all-time favorite console.
@weglarz Well, its graphical and audio capabilities were certainly higher, which made the great titles on it even better. However, I feel like there were more games that I have strongly fond memories of on the SNES than the PSX, even though we had fairly comparable numbers of games on the two. However, as I said, the games I liked on the PSX were even better because their aesthetic properties were better. Argh! You're right; it's tough to choose.
I played this first on the DS, since i am in a newer generation. now i wished i was born earlier so i could of played this game on the snes. Chrono trigger is the best game I have played
Listening to it this time, I noticed that it's basically a medley of a few of the other pieces of the soundtrack, e.g. Corridors of Time right at the beginning, and I also heard "Silent Light" somewhere in there.
Whenever I hear this song, I feel a melancholy emotion. It's bittersweet that you beat the game, but now all of the great expiriences you have had with it are now in the past.
I know I've said this on a couple of these already (Dire, Dire Docks and Into the Thick of It), but this is another of my absolute favorite video game songs of all time. All three are just amazing. The fact that this is the ENDING song of a freaking amazing game makes it that much better. I've never enjoyed victory so much.
What a lot of people don't know is Yasunori Mitsuda became every ill from stress while making the Chrono Trigger soundtrack because his job was on the line. Even vomiting blood and he said his illness inspired a lot of the music.
Chrono Trigger owns bullshit like Twilight and Modern Warfare. People will still talk about this game 20 years from now. Nothing can touch this game's heart and soul.
@RSXemperor 4 more years and it WILL be 20 years for the game. From where you commented, let's see if we will in 2030. I'm sure we are since this is one of man's greatest games.
@RSXemperor How was this in the highest comment? Twilight is nothing by itself. All he was doing is comparing CT to Modern Warfare (Can't say it sucks because I don't like war games in general).
Maybe I'm taking a gamble here, but this series needs another installment. Maybe it'd be like FFXII and totally suck, but the Chrono Bus needs another stop.
why does everyone hate FF12 ..... ill agree the storyline and charaters are all garbage, and that is the prestige of the series ..... but i thought the playability and adventure aspect were great, it was enjoyable to play on my front, logged like 70 hours on it
Masato Kato and Yasunori Mitsuda weren't amongst the Dream team though. :( Honestly they are the heart and soul of the series. Considering they're the main members who've worked with every game in the series.
I remember the very first time I played this game... The day it was released in the US. I picked it up for a hefty $85. I still have the ticket from the Toys R Us I picked it up at. 1995. I was 8 years old at the time. I played it through in about a week. Between school, homework and other things a kid does, I was engrossed into it's story... I couldn't believe a game like this existed.
Nearly 15 years later, nothing has changed. This game is, and always will be, the greatest game ever created.
This song is god tier. It is everything that is chrono trigger wrapped into one song. the perfect snes game. the perfect song.

This theme. This theme is the BEST theme from any RPG. It is a song that is filled with hope, knowing that you did save the world from a dark future. With the Epoch jetting through TUIme seeing Frog with the Guardia Knights, Robo with Atropos, Ayla and Kino flying on Dactyl and findally Magus flying off into the sky, this theme is so perfect. God I love this game.

It's hard to believe that, over winter break three years ago, I simply came across this game in a bin of old SNES games my dad used to play with no idea what it was. Before I realized it had an awesome story, I got hooked because I had heard a MIDI of the battle music online somewhere before (again having no clue to its origin) and liked it. To suddenly come across it in a game I knew nothing about was a moment of awesome.

Other than watching my dad play Legend of Legaia and the Final Fantasy series as I grew up, this is probably single-handedly responsible for thrusting me into a love of RPG's. It also solidified my stance of the SNES being my all-time favorite console.
amimizunofan22 1 year ago
@amimizunofan22 Yeah... it's hard to say that any other console has bested the SNES. For me though, it's a tie between PSX and SNES...
weglarz 1 year ago
@weglarz Well, its graphical and audio capabilities were certainly higher, which made the great titles on it even better. However, I feel like there were more games that I have strongly fond memories of on the SNES than the PSX, even though we had fairly comparable numbers of games on the two. However, as I said, the games I liked on the PSX were even better because their aesthetic properties were better. Argh! You're right; it's tough to choose.

@RotaryPoweredRX I still have the cartridge, the only one I have left. Shows how much this game means to me.

Listening to it this time, I noticed that it's basically a medley of a few of the other pieces of the soundtrack, e.g. Corridors of Time right at the beginning, and I also heard "Silent Light" somewhere in there.

@kemsus Your correct! I just replayed the game and noticed it this time. Beautiful song!

@Arc13: Me too! I played this song after my first kiss with an old girlfriend...far away times indeed. Nonetheless, bittersweet is still sweet.
I also saw this on the iTunes of a friend, who owned no other VGM. Apparently some boy who fancied her sent it :)
I think the slight echo on the piano track (esp. 2:07) is tied up with its power. Like the ripples after dropping a stone in a still pond.

Very few songs give me goosebumps every time I hear them.
Even fewer songs can give me goosebumps AND a warm fuzzy feeling in my gut.
And only one song has ever been so beautiful as to make me streamline tear after tear after tear.
This track is an absolute masterpiece and the not just the greatest game song ever but the greatest song ever.
Arc13 1 year ago 3
@Arc13 I agree. I also tear up to this song. Peace.

Whenever I hear this song, I feel a melancholy emotion. It's bittersweet that you beat the game, but now all of the great expiriences you have had with it are now in the past.
jseeker1867 1 year ago 3
I know I've said this on a couple of these already (Dire, Dire Docks and Into the Thick of It), but this is another of my absolute favorite video game songs of all time. All three are just amazing. The fact that this is the ENDING song of a freaking amazing game makes it that much better. I've never enjoyed victory so much.

What a lot of people don't know is Yasunori Mitsuda became every ill from stress while making the Chrono Trigger soundtrack because his job was on the line. Even vomiting blood and he said his illness inspired a lot of the music.

This, like many Mitsuda compositions, makes me emotional.

Chrono Trigger owns bullshit like Twilight and Modern Warfare. People will still talk about this game 20 years from now. Nothing can touch this game's heart and soul.

@RSXemperor 4 more years and it WILL be 20 years for the game. From where you commented, let's see if we will in 2030. I'm sure we are since this is one of man's greatest games.

@RSXemperor How was this in the highest comment? Twilight is nothing by itself. All he was doing is comparing CT to Modern Warfare (Can't say it sucks because I don't like war games in general).

Maybe I'm taking a gamble here, but this series needs another installment. Maybe it'd be like FFXII and totally suck, but the Chrono Bus needs another stop.

why does everyone hate FF12 ..... ill agree the storyline and charaters are all garbage, and that is the prestige of the series ..... but i thought the playability and adventure aspect were great, it was enjoyable to play on my front, logged like 70 hours on it

Masato Kato and Yasunori Mitsuda weren't amongst the Dream team though. :( Honestly they are the heart and soul of the series. Considering they're the main members who've worked with every game in the series.

I remember the very first time I played this game... The day it was released in the US. I picked it up for a hefty $85. I still have the ticket from the Toys R Us I picked it up at. 1995. I was 8 years old at the time. I played it through in about a week. Between school, homework and other things a kid does, I was engrossed into it's story... I couldn't believe a game like this existed.
Nearly 15 years later, nothing has changed. This game is, and always will be, the greatest game ever created.
