I wouldn't buy the Square-Enix story. Awesome job, but there's no way they'd acknowledge a project like this. If at all, they're more likely to use the latest Dragon Quest graphic-engine for a CT remake than this.
@wentworth5621 Chrono Trigger has been copyrighted by Square Enix... That's why they could sue the creators of this project. Although, it would've been a great remake and I'm sorry to say that we won't ever be able to play it. :(
@GrandAngel8000 That wasn't the case. The Square side wanted to hire these guys, and Enix wanted to give them the C&D order and sue them. You can see who won out. Although FFXIII has had great sales, the game was terrible. FFXIV was a bust and they lost millions of dollars trying to recreate it. They just now finally made changes to it to actually make it a playable game. Any person wants to recreate their childhood favorite.
Chrono Break IS Resurrection. The term "Break" is used to dodge copyright on youtube. Squenix is probably just mad that these guys were going to create a better game then they have in years.
@Willardsmusic most likely...all I know if is if I was on that staff and I recieved a phone call to work on a project like this I would definately be postponing what I was currently doing lol
All Square Enix needed to do was tell the developers to slap a $5 fee on it and give them a $3 cut or something like that. Free money, free publicity, fan adulation, and an open door to some very profitable future remakes / sequels. Nearly every CT fan would willingly shell out five clams for a chance to play this.
We all knew this already, but SE are PR idiots and apparently don't want to make money. This was a golden opportunity for them and they missed it.
CURSE YOU SQUARE ENIX!!!! WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU BRING IT OUT!!!! YOU COULD HAVE MADE ONE OF THE GREATEST GAMES OF ALL TIME EVEN BETTER!!!! DAMN YOU!!!
The team that made this are all pros in the industry now. The head guy, Nathan Lazur, used the exposure from CTR to launch his career in game dev. After some time at Pandemic he seems to be working at some start up companies. Just search for him on Linked In.
I have to agree with everyone here though. It really sucked when S-E bombed the project all those years ago. CT was one of the greatest games I've ever had the fortune to play through.
This game is the sole reason I hate Square now. They never should have insulted the fans by forcing legal action like that. And I have yet to buy a game from them since.
They should have hired these guys, and helped them to continue making this, into a full re-release. They could have set a great example for the industry. Instead the spit on the fans. -_-
Square-Enix can just go fuck dog shit. Luckily my cousin goes to college at Cal Arts, and is a great 3D artist. I could get him and a few of his and my friends together, and we could make this actually work. We'd keep it a complete secret when we start of course, for the sake that the dickheads at Enix don't shut us down like they did these guys. Then we'll try to talk stores into selling it. Then, if successful, we'll drop a bag full of dog shit onto the people leaving the Enix Building.
@HiddenSenka Actually, no. Fair Use doesn't work for fan made games sadly. See, Fair Use only covers the use for comment, criticism, research or parody. A fan made remake, even if not for profit, doesn't fall under any of those categories so... it's out of Fair Use's umbrella of protection. Square-Enix had every right to call the C&D order and they used that right.
Square should have just signed a deal with these guys to publish the game... seriously this game was looking very good, and for a project not being made by a big studio.
Wow, i really wish they would make this game in HD that would the AWESOME, the only complaint/suggestion i have is to not change the original music, adding new songs is ok, but dont make remixes of the original ones just keep them the same. Man this is sweet though.
I completely lost my taste for Square Enix when they cancelled this amazing remake. And then they have the nerve to dish out the complete crap they're making these days? The cancellation of this project is probably the biggest blunder in video game history. Shame on them. Shame on them all. Square Enix, if you're reading, fuck you.
The day i heard of the C&D my brain went numb form seeing there stupidity
What The Hell are they thinking with a C&D order Hire the guys who did this give them a buget to work with and make a lot of money from remakes that fans are drooling for.
im sick of all these ports of old games that take little to no effort to recode and trasfer compared to making a new game and expecting us to pay a price as if it were a new product and not just a copy from an old console game.
Why can't Sqaure Enix just buy those developers and let them do their stuff officially?
Square Enix is such a shitty company. Good for them their good games were released in the 90s when I also was naive. I am not buying any stuff of them anymore - not just because of this canceled project.
I wonder which 3D engine they used? This looks amazing!
chrono trigger is the best game i have ever played in my life. please, exist another chrono trigger? i have played chrono trigger Snes and Nds but to this super game need to exist some games chrono trigger es el mejor juego que jugue en toda mi vida jugue al de Snes y Nds. pero este juego es genial y quiero que salga otro porque solo veo videos de hace ya mucho tiempo pero nunca lo sacaron. daria cualquier cosa porque sacaran el juego pronto :`D FAVOR DE RESPONDER Gracias...
i agree chrono trigger is the best rpg i ever played i still prefer it over newer games this game should have been made..is strange 2 me that fans didnt asked or demanded for it more but o well not much can be done if the team got canceled......damn u square! T-T

As long as it's worthy of being a sequel and not some attempt to cash in on a fantastic property.
