There's a reason why people are trying to make remakes of games like this. I don't really understand how video game companies like Square don't see it. When I see the console RPG genre today, it seems that they lost sight of what made these RPG's great.
@izEnii I couldn't have said it better myself. I will carry this song for when it's dead at work on my mp3 player. It's instantly earned a favorite too.
@1RadicalDreamers Chrono Cross is a TERRIBLE sequel to Chrono Trigger let alone it being a crap game. This isn't some Fanboy rage or hate towards you either.
I'm so happy that I bought this for DS! Even though I'm technically "spoiled" with all these games nowadays, I still appreciate (spelling?) games like these.
I wish I could transport back in time and play then when I was younger. I had final fantasy II/III (4/6). But never got a hold of this. Luckily I bought it at a vintage store one day when I was 18 or 19 and enjoyed something truly magical in 16 bit form. I'm glad I played the original and got to experience the superb writing ahead of it's time.
this is the first time i have heard this and it took me a while to recognize the original. not a critique, but just a testament to the wonderfulness of the song....truly a beautiful mix
square enix just couldnt stomache the fact that this team was doing something they shouldve done years ago by rereleasing a fan favorite of such superb quality with great interest.
This is really good. It doesn't have the exotic eastern feel to it that the original did, but it still keeps the theme's spirit and awe-inspiring tone, and the chorus is as moving as ever. It's a shame SE forced this remake to be cancelled, I don't think they knew what they were losing...
One of my biggest disappointments is that square didnt let the guys at Chrono Resurrection finish their incredible job... Why won't they let fans be satisfied with ff7 & ct remakes? :D - Awesome song btw, brings back memories!
@LiquidSnack It's their intellectual property that's going to rot in their archives for the next few years until they make yet another port to cash in.
I haven't finished Chrono Trigger yet, but I have to say: the antagonist is one of the coolest looking ones I've ever seen. Also: Chrono Cross is my favorite for game feel, character variety, art style, and a bunch of other stuff, but I have Chrono Trigger's success to thank for Chrono Cross's existence. (as of this post I'm not done with CC or CT)
I wish this could've been fully developed. Sad that SqEn decided to stop them.
All of you stop and play CT2 damnnit. How do all of you fans NOT KNOW about it yet.??? It's called FLames of Eternity, and bridges the storyline between 1 and Cross. Its AMAZING.
This could have been something absolute.. why does Square is so much against remakes.. I mean with FF VII and all >_> those are RPG players wet dreams!
Chrono Trigger: a game that throws a bunch of fantasy/sci-fi stereotypes into an SNES cartridge and somehow makes one of the best RPG games of the 90's out of it.
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 sometimes look up old games for old systems. I saw this one and looked up the differences between SNES and DS version. the snes one was to expensive online, so i got the ds version. I beat it in two days with crono, frog, and magus as my permenant party once i got magus. This...Game...Kicks...ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... I like the music too :P
the coninuity from this game and chrono crosses truly begs the question of its surrealness. a meteor that crashed and killed the dinosaurs, the evolution of humans. was it an act of god that humans are the dominant species, or was this fabled meteor a being burrowed in our very earth even today? when looking onto our past, its scary how it lavos could explain so much of what has happend to bring us to this future. religion is far fetched as well, maybe lavos really does exist,
Square Enix is a company of douchebags who come together in order to make way too many Final Fantasys and shut down non-profit fangames so that their won't be a sequel to the one game they make that needs a sequel.
@Unnickcomealtri Couldn't have said it better myself. If you close your eyes during quite a few of the CT songs you can easily see similar things, mostly through true fans of the game. I wish I could see their real faces just one last time... They were prepared for the void... Magus would have been proud to be a member of their family... So am I... I am proud to say so. This song makes me realize that we are all small, in comparison to death. It is something we can't escape, no matter what.
@monkeyboy409 Yeah, too bad good and touching music for videogames died like 10 years ago. This game's theme is just brilliant, the words fail me if I try to describe how much those musics meant to me, even if is "just" a game. Peace :)
This song makes me think about the lost loves... If I close my eyes I can see my self in the past with the ones I loved and now are gone. I feel happy, but a voice in my mind keeps telling "All is about to disappear". This song, for me, is about the joy of living good times knowing that everything can get worse in a second and it makes the joy even bigger, because you know you have to be happy now while you can. Love CT musics, all giving lots of thoughts.
Honestly from a standing point as a game devoloper myself I can see why square rdered a C&D on this game, but it still would have been awsome to play it I'm a huge chrono trigger fan.
@boosterman Well, Ressurection games did not have any right or permission from square to even start devoloping this game. It was in violation of many copyright laws, and they didn't even have permission to use the title, the characters, the story, etc. If I was square honestly I would have ordered a C&D on this game as well.
This is one or maybe my favorite soundtrack of all time for a videogame.. i always listen to this song (The Snes version) when im gonna sleep.. is awesome! reminds me of the city in the sky (cant remember the nameE) when this song first played.. i loved the moment i hear it.. why this project had to be cancelled? it would have been great!!!
Remake Of Chrono Trigger With 3D Graphics, Better Sound If It Could Get Any Better Same Storyline It Would Sell As Much As It's Been Downloaded On Emulators.
Crono Resurrection would be an instant, but Square's politic ruined it.
Look at Valve, who allowed fan-based games of their franchise. They're probably one of the most successful video game developers. On the other site, Square makes mistakes all the time. I would not be surprised if the company suffers massive loss someday.
@ZidaneTribal93 I think I played the Aladdin game! I remember vaguely... It was a really long time ago... We were borrowing it, along with a bunch of other SNES games, including FFII/IV, Mario Paint, Super Metroid, and Secret of Mana, and a ton of others. SNES had some of the best games, as well as the ps1. It's too bad the gaming industry is mostly all about graphics and visuals nowadays and not the story depth. Chrono Trigger was unbelievably deep for a game of its time. Haha... time. hurr.
@greekperson0305 Chrono Resurrection was originally set for a Christmas 2004 release.[11] However, Square Enix issued a cease-and-desist letter to Resurrection Games before the release for trademark and copyright infringement.[12] Faced with a threat of legal action, the project was publicly closed on September 6, 2004.[13] it wasn't even a game being made by square, it was a fan project that was getting a commercial release (meaning it was breaking laws)
@greekperson0305 does the official soundtrack have symphonic recordings? no offense but brilliant as the music is I won't buy a CD with 8-bit or 16-bit music on it.
@Laughingblades If you read the articles on it, it was never ment to be an actua game. a quote from gamsutra: "the development team did not intend to create a complete remake of the original game since they would not have the necessary resources, and because they thought the result would not have been on par with Square Enix-developed titles."
@S0ryiu But the reason they cancelled the project, the reason they gave themselves on their website for the cancellation, the reason given to several other sources with the order in question, was that Square-Enix issued a Cease and Desist order. Now if Square Enix wasn't Herpaderp STUPID and run by that pop culture idiot Yoichi Wada, they would have hired the team or bought the rights and made a full fledged game out of it.
What they had done was recreated the entire kingdom continent with NPCS
@Laughingblades The problem is that they were intending to sell the game, the cest and ddesist order called for them to either stop, or not sell it. THey chose to stop. That tells me that the team making it cared more about money than their project.
@S0ryiu Square-Enix could have sold the game themselves, they chose instead to destroy it, and the cease and desist order was to stop working on the project.
@S0ryiu not sure where you got your info from. Let me give you the full scoop as I'm the one who did this remix. (I'm Mathew Valente) The demo, not game..but demo was intended as a high quality multi-scene promotion for our love of the game that was to be given away for free, not for profit. No one got paid for any work they did on this project. It was to be released (for free) on PC, gcn, and xbox..not at retail, but as ISO files that only development kits could play
@S0ryiu kotaku was one of the sites I contacted with info about the project, but I don't recall them actually claiming we wanted money. Trust the source :) we never intended it to be full or retail released. Zeenbor (nathan Lazur) posted a game play video online, check it out by searching chrono resurrection playthrough. I also posted videos regarding the music on my channel
@tssf A lot of us really wish you could have finished, SquareEnix has been going down the drain since Wada took over they clearly have no plans to do anything with the title but port it across handhelds so we can squint and burn up batteries trying to enjoy classics they refuse to release in bundle packs on X-Box 360 these days.
If they had been smart they would have hired you guys on as talent, idiots won't even put good games to America that already have english translations tho.
@S0ryiu "because they thought the result would not have been on par with Square Enix-developed titles"
watch?v=233kmUiW-Rc
Look at a small glimpse of what they had so far, it was graphically superior to the original and choc full of content.
They were well on their way to making a full game, if Square-Enix had backed them up instead of shutting them down they would have made a better game than the original, they were definitely dedicated to the task and they definitely had the talent.
@heyhowfang Huh? What comment was that? I can't restore it but I think I said something to the effect that true fans should pirate the games to keep Yoichi Wada, and Square Enix in general, from getting the money after they've taken a shit all over Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy.
@heyhowfang Naw you're not a true fan if you don't, Yoichi Wada took over the company and has been running it into the ground, all the money goes to him and his company now and they don't deserve it. This game should be freely available without having to buy an old PS1 or a handheld device, everyone with a PC or modern console should be able to play it, and this game should get a remake and a true sequel
I got Chrono Trigger from the drug dealer upstairs in my apartments for $5.... So do you believe in Fate? Which means our lives are all predetermined?
man the good old days when the game where real and knew how to make a game. know a days people dont have a dam clue what a real game is a part from a scrap.
most common thing graphics this and graphics that. .most of todays games are garbage. there is a few rare ones out there.
@lavosbr - What we want is a re-mastered version of the songs and a re-make of the game. Same Chrono Trigger, but with more appealing 3D graphics and a more expanded environment while keeping the same story and being nostalgic. That's all we want, but sometimes we ask for too much I suppose.
@Year1022 Honestly if they just made a nice looking 3d version of the game with music updates but kept the story, battle system and items all exactly the same I would go out and buy whatever system it was on.
@mitxelus Agreed. I don't care for the ret"con" they call Chrono Cross. Or at least I did, until I found out what they did to the story from the first game...
Chrono Trigger, and the Chrono series in general, is perfect just the way it is. Considering Squeenix's track record in the past decade, I don't want them to ever touch the Chrono games again. Because if they did they WOULD screw it up. I only need point at the once-great Final Fantasy series as an example of a series whored into oblivion.
It may seem ugly, but if you were running a business you wouldn't want unofficial teams gaining popularity from your work & not paying you for using your ideas.
The unofficial team were also breaching copyright.
SE want to cash in on franchises for as long as possible, which means porting 2D versions with little improvements until the value dies down, only then will they release a 3D version to surprise the fans & profit from it.
@feraldrgn I may not seem logical, but I would welcome such an "unwanted" thought with open arms and a box of donuts. I say this because it's not really profit that a company seeks, but the glory that comes with influencing culture- the money's just an extra reward. And when it comes to copyright and trademarks, with the right thinking and wording, both the fans and company win. Square Enix, however, used the wrong line of thought, and now, here we all are- listening to an awesome remix on YT.
@shutterdust They didn't want average joes doing a better job then them, because then stupid people would finally open their eyes to how shit companies are.
The creators are still out there, one of them is bound to have this. Their group is no longer together, the game could have been leaked before, one of them should just upload to piratebay, it would become a worldwide phenomenon overnight making millions of people happy. Square-Enix, you're inhuman corporate money junkies whom belong not in the gaming world. Your utter lack in quality goods has turned millions to piracy. I'll never pay for another FF but I would GLADLY pay $100USD for this.

When I was about 7, I was shopping for a game for my SNES. There was this game and a Yogi Bear game I couldn't decide on. I chose the Yogi Bear game. This decision altered the future forever and will only hasten the coming of Lavos. We must travel back in time, to the year 1996, and punch my 7 year old self in the face for being a complete dolt. This will make me come to my senses and choose Chrono Trigger, thus altering the future, and saving the world from utter annihilation from Lavos.

@Laughingblades If you read the articles on it, it was never ment to be an actua game. a quote from gamsutra: "the development team did not intend to create a complete remake of the original game since they would not have the necessary resources, and because they thought the result would not have been on par with Square Enix-developed titles."
S0ryiu 6 months ago
@S0ryiu But the reason they cancelled the project, the reason they gave themselves on their website for the cancellation, the reason given to several other sources with the order in question, was that Square-Enix issued a Cease and Desist order. Now if Square Enix wasn't Herpaderp STUPID and run by that pop culture idiot Yoichi Wada, they would have hired the team or bought the rights and made a full fledged game out of it.
What they had done was recreated the entire kingdom continent with NPCS
Laughingblades 6 months ago
@Laughingblades The problem is that they were intending to sell the game, the cest and ddesist order called for them to either stop, or not sell it. THey chose to stop. That tells me that the team making it cared more about money than their project.
S0ryiu 6 months ago
@S0ryiu Square-Enix could have sold the game themselves, they chose instead to destroy it, and the cease and desist order was to stop working on the project.

@S0ryiu not sure where you got your info from. Let me give you the full scoop as I'm the one who did this remix. (I'm Mathew Valente) The demo, not game..but demo was intended as a high quality multi-scene promotion for our love of the game that was to be given away for free, not for profit. No one got paid for any work they did on this project. It was to be released (for free) on PC, gcn, and xbox..not at retail, but as ISO files that only development kits could play

@S0ryiu kotaku was one of the sites I contacted with info about the project, but I don't recall them actually claiming we wanted money. Trust the source :) we never intended it to be full or retail released. Zeenbor (nathan Lazur) posted a game play video online, check it out by searching chrono resurrection playthrough. I also posted videos regarding the music on my channel

@tssf A lot of us really wish you could have finished, SquareEnix has been going down the drain since Wada took over they clearly have no plans to do anything with the title but port it across handhelds so we can squint and burn up batteries trying to enjoy classics they refuse to release in bundle packs on X-Box 360 these days.
If they had been smart they would have hired you guys on as talent, idiots won't even put good games to America that already have english translations tho.

Look at a small glimpse of what they had so far, it was graphically superior to the original and choc full of content.
They were well on their way to making a full game, if Square-Enix had backed them up instead of shutting them down they would have made a better game than the original, they were definitely dedicated to the task and they definitely had the talent.

@heyhowfang Naw you're not a true fan if you don't, Yoichi Wada took over the company and has been running it into the ground, all the money goes to him and his company now and they don't deserve it. This game should be freely available without having to buy an old PS1 or a handheld device, everyone with a PC or modern console should be able to play it, and this game should get a remake and a true sequel

@lavosbr - What we want is a re-mastered version of the songs and a re-make of the game. Same Chrono Trigger, but with more appealing 3D graphics and a more expanded environment while keeping the same story and being nostalgic. That's all we want, but sometimes we ask for too much I suppose.

@Year1022 Honestly if they just made a nice looking 3d version of the game with music updates but kept the story, battle system and items all exactly the same I would go out and buy whatever system it was on.

Chrono Trigger, and the Chrono series in general, is perfect just the way it is. Considering Squeenix's track record in the past decade, I don't want them to ever touch the Chrono games again. Because if they did they WOULD screw it up. I only need point at the once-great Final Fantasy series as an example of a series whored into oblivion.

It really is a shame they shut this project down, but there were a load of copyright issues.
Also, if the project was successful, it would take the chance of cashing in on a 3D version away from SE.
Made sense, but damn they really made some good progress on the graphics.
feraldrgn 11 months ago
@feraldrgn SE shut their project down and released a shitty and loveless port for the DS, there is no justification for what they have done.
shutterdust 10 months ago
@shutterdust Of course there's justification.
It may seem ugly, but if you were running a business you wouldn't want unofficial teams gaining popularity from your work & not paying you for using your ideas.
The unofficial team were also breaching copyright.
SE want to cash in on franchises for as long as possible, which means porting 2D versions with little improvements until the value dies down, only then will they release a 3D version to surprise the fans & profit from it.
feraldrgn 10 months ago
@feraldrgn I may not seem logical, but I would welcome such an "unwanted" thought with open arms and a box of donuts. I say this because it's not really profit that a company seeks, but the glory that comes with influencing culture- the money's just an extra reward. And when it comes to copyright and trademarks, with the right thinking and wording, both the fans and company win. Square Enix, however, used the wrong line of thought, and now, here we all are- listening to an awesome remix on YT.

The creators are still out there, one of them is bound to have this. Their group is no longer together, the game could have been leaked before, one of them should just upload to piratebay, it would become a worldwide phenomenon overnight making millions of people happy. Square-Enix, you're inhuman corporate money junkies whom belong not in the gaming world. Your utter lack in quality goods has turned millions to piracy. I'll never pay for another FF but I would GLADLY pay $100USD for this.

When I was about 7, I was shopping for a game for my SNES. There was this game and a Yogi Bear game I couldn't decide on. I chose the Yogi Bear game. This decision altered the future forever and will only hasten the coming of Lavos. We must travel back in time, to the year 1996, and punch my 7 year old self in the face for being a complete dolt. This will make me come to my senses and choose Chrono Trigger, thus altering the future, and saving the world from utter annihilation from Lavos.
