back when square weren't a bunch of money hungry dlc releasing and shitty games making queers. this game and FF6 where my first 2 rpg's ive ever played back in my snes days. how was i to know that there would never again be an rpg released of these high standards and qualities. i played newer rpg's and some decent ones at that. but no rpg can even come close to compare to either of these 2.
@leojatoba23 I don't think the graphics would make the game better.
A game with great graphics is very good for the immersion of he player, but Chrono Trigger don't need that.The game make us travel around in a beautiful world...
Sorry, that wasn't exactly what I meant... I thought that would be awesome with the technology and graphic/sound engines from the actual days... Blue Dragon has awesome graphics without losing the "Toriyama Style"... Cel Shading is a very good option for the anime based games...
@ajadashnz Yeah, the part of Square Enix that take care of the Squaresoft games....
@leojatoba23 It would be good, yeah. Because more people would get interested in this beautiful game. I think the actual graphics are not very "interesting" for actual gamers... ^^
@leojatoba23 hum, not at all please! judging from Chrono trigger's art direction, it would need to be in Cel shaded to stay closest to its roots. Now I don't have anything against cel shaded but I'm sure it would feel awkard, unless devs can manage to create a game engine that uses japanese anime graphics with 100% fidelity.
lol i just got a flashback from more than a decade a go of kicking back on my bean bag chair playing chrono trigger while it rained outside.. awesome game still have it boxed up with my
new gmaes have no colour too them, so sick of gray scale. cant wait for bioshock infinite. that is a gem of today, bioshock 1 is also stunning. chrono trigger is one of those games where you can feel the passion and care for every lil detail. psychonauts also comes to mind.
O Canada, I played ff 12 it was an eye candy game but no real result but the battle system was great, easier power leveling, chronoesque combo system with speed. I agree with in terms of the ff x2-2 should be amazing hope they can bring back some of that old school magic from the good old days. It does have super potential from what I've soon, so let's for the best fellow rpgers!!!
Chrono trigger was a stepping stone. The development of the game was out of pure love. Real sense of making something that meant a lot. Chrono Cross is simply Smart, development team just wanted to show other companies how to use the Playstation true power at the time. Squaresoft will always rule, they were pressured into make final fantasy for a white base Hollywood goers. Should've of released advent children at a lower budget and fanbase that would have supported.
Sorry I played both, CT is better than CC IMO. The music of CT is more genuine, they just reused it again on CC. And there's a special feeling when I played CT when I was younger that made me hooked up on playing RPGs, it's just indescribable. I played CC, it was just good and better than most RPGs, but not better than CT.
I got introduced to this at 13 in 2003 in the height of the Gamecube Era, yet I consider this one of my fav games I've ever played. amazing how such long games used to exist back then. now people can't even sit down for 6 hours without gettign bored.
First time arriving to the kingdom of Zeal, seeing the islands floating in the sky and this music playing. That was a damn magical moment. This song always brings that image into my mind.
Wow, I haven't played the game but when i hear this i get a sense of feeling not to lose all hope, like i've found myself fighting and fighting and then all of a sudden, i get reset back to nothing wasting all my effort and strength. I still continue on with my quest which will only take longer now but will make it all worthwhile when i am finally triumphant.
ctrigger was my first ever game and I will never forget that. this song brings back so many memories and i'm so glad... i cant even put it into words how much i appreciate it
17 years old. I don't play CoD. It's a repetitive shooter with no heart. I prefer Cross over Trigger but still love Trigger. I hate new age video games
@ANEWPATHWAY Just wondering, what do you find better about Cross? I think it was a great game, just curious as to what your view is on the pair. I could definitely see it being the case if, say, you played Cross first and then went to Trigger. Either way, thanks for not being another CoD brat. We have a surplus of those, and I'm pretty sure they're ruining gaming as we know it.
@ANEWPATHWAY Come on, there are still amazing gems among games today - obviously there are mainstream cash ins without any soul or heart put into them like Call of Duty right now (but when it was new... boy was it amazing).
@ANEWPATHWAY Don't forget to listen to the zohar002 and lonlonjp covers of this track, they will blow your mind. The best RPG ever created is Chrono Trigger, but I agree that Chrono Cross is underrated, everyone should clock it at least once.
I played chrono trigger for the first time in 2011. Yes, it was a mistake to wait until now. Overall, it's the best RPG I've ever played, and this is FAR from being due to nostalgia.
its sad when you realize how great certain things can be like music or games and then you look at how horribly all the potential is constantly being pissed away by people who dont even understand it and claim to be experts
I remember the days back then. The games they make these days just hasn't got the same charm to them. I am not saying they are bad, mind you, but I feel like they are missing something... Oh well. At least I still have my old consoles, and they still work. Even my 20 years old NES console. Ah, good times. :)
Tbh, I'm tired of people who say this generation's games are terrible and based on graphics. Look at Starcraft, it's entirely based on strategy. Graphics also actually do improve gameplay with shadows or sound showing where people are and allow for a more dynamic gameplay. Yeah, I grew up in the N64 years (with SSBros being my favorite of the time), but you gotta learn to appreciate what people are trying at nowadays.
TL;DR: Old games are still there, give a chance for new games and move on.
@coloredwaffles You know i never understood why so many people liked that game starcraft it looks boring as shit..theres a few good rpgs out there but now they're making them look like that world of warcraft gameplay shit.snes had some awesome rpgs.it's more action in game now which is ok i guess.
@widdowson91 yea man i grew up during the super nintendo ages xD, all the graphics honestly are taking the focus away from actually enjoying playing the games... they are just focused on making games "pretty"
Yes, I'm 13. Yes, I grew up in a time where graphics were the basis of making a game. Yes, Chrono Trigger is one of my favorite games ever, and I hate all those mainstream games. We don't all play Call Of Duty.
Get over yourself, and accept that some of today's youth still hold onto these treasures.
@sonikku70 Age has nothing to do with the kind of video games you enjoy, get over yourself. You aren't special just because you don't play call of duty and hate all the mainstream games. Not to mention there are quite a few great "mainstream" games out there.
@romanul70 I'm guessing you play CoD all day then. Either that, or you're in your 20's. Don't even bother replying, because I'm not gonna pay attention. ;)
I have a grudge against Squenix stop shitting out shitty FFs make a Chrono trigger NO,NOT A PORT but a sequel to it i dont count CC because it should have its own series but still STOP MAKING FFs DAMMIT
@kinsmon123 Back then, making games was harder. That is why developers tried their best. Now, you can make a full game using the Source SDK in 2 days just by adding textures and a bit of code. Back then, there were no patches, everything had to work on the first release. Back then...
@xSayPleasex Games that can actually be released for profit take a while to be made, but games made just for fun are made much faster, but can be just as good as the games made for profit. Games don't really take 4 years for development, it is usually the developers who take their time. I remember one of my friends working for Rockstar after he finished college, and one day he called me and said that most of the time there is barley 3 hours of work a day broken up over 9 hours.
My top 3 video game list are all oldies, cause games with only violence and graphics are terrible compared to the revolutionary games they made in the old days. My top three:
Zelda Ocarina of Time (Cried silently at the End, I never wanted it to end)

in my opinion i had the best childhood ever 90's was Sooo epic the game that we had was just awesome earthbound,chrono trigger, all FF on Snes etc.. the t.v show was so good too
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'm 20 and I live in Europe. Chrono Trigger was never released here back in 1995, and even if it had seen a release I probably wouldn't have played it as a 4 year old. I did get a chance to play it last year (the PlayStation version), and man, didn't I love it. Iv'e always been a huge RPG fan, but Chrono Trigger was just something special...
... A lot of people think that love towards retro games comes from nostalgia, but I had no nostalgia of Chrono Trigger and still found it to be arguably the best game I've ever played. You just don't get video games like this in the modern age. I've had to endure growing up through a phase where everyone is obsessed with graphics, but Chrono Trigger is from a time where gameplay was key, and it represents this perfectly.
@widdowson91 what you just said is exactly how i feel i wish gamescould go back to amazing storylines like chrono trigger nowthere all about guns and blood/gore
@widdowson91 I didn't grow up during the NES era, I grew up during the SNES/Genesis/TurboGrafx-16, N64/Saturn/PS1, NGC/DC/Xbox/PS2, Wii/X360/PS3 eras. With this song, it really reminds me of how great the SNES was.
@widdowson91 It's easy to forget, because the graphics of the day aren't impressive anymore, that developers DID invest a lot of time and effort into making cutting-edge graphics, even back then. It has always been one of the developer's top priorities, otherwise all games would look like something made for the Atari 2600. It's true that games don't seem to play as well as they used to, but it's for lack of talent, not for lack of trying. Developers priorities haven't changed a bit.
I agree. Ever since I played Chrono Trigger a few years back, I was immediately just overwhelmed at how good it was. The gameplay was different of other RPGs, refreshing and fun. The music was a huge part for me. Absolutely amazing.
i'm only 15, so i was either not bron yet or far too young to have played most of these old games. the earliest system i ever played on was the N64, which is part of the reason why i've been able to escape the obsession with graphics most of my peers seem to have. i love old games, and have a massive amount of respect for them. i've never been able to understand why people blindly (no pun intended) choose graphics over gameplay.
@widdowson91 I didn't play Chrono Trigger until maybe 2003, at age 17 or so, and I'm in the same boat as you. It's a super game -- one of the very best ever made. And I say that without a shred of nostalgia.
@icydesign I should do the same. As someone who didn't grow up with an SNES (Grew up in the N64 era), I've heard Chrono Trigger hailed as the "Greatest game of all time" for pretty much my whole life.
I should see if I can find an original copy on SNES, or that remade version for the DS.
@icydesign Same here. I played it around 2008, when I was 14. The game is great, great story, amazing music, combat that is still fun today. my favorite game of all time. This game is a masterpiece.
@icydesign I first played Chrono Trigger sometime in the 90's pretty soon after it came out. I thought it was alright, but I had only rented it, and didn't go on to buy it. I picked it up again several years later and discovered that it was a lot better than I originally thought. On the other hand I just picked up Chrono Cross a couple weeks ago.I have no idea why it took me so long to play the sequel to a game I loved so much.
Anyway, Yasunori Mitsuda is my favourite video game composer.
@icydesign Chrono Trigger is nothing short of a beautiful and inspired work of art. A work of ART, to all narrow-minded fools who don't believe video games can be art.
@poolpure272 yeah, but a lot of people like that character and SE put a lot of effort into getting the copyrights off of Nintendo. I really like Geno, so I think he really should get a game.
@stopeatingthepizza it's just a waveform, probably combo of sawtooth and sine. the waveform generator was new feature for Nintendo when they came out with the SNES.
@VVega0021 I think it needs a sequel better then that piece of crap Chrono Cross. Actually, I don't need a sequel, a good remake would be nice. Not the DS version, but an honest-to-god remake. I'm sure many other CT fans will agree with me.
@hamstersonsteroids Chrono Cross is not crap. (at least in my opinion). I just think a lot of diehard Trigger fans were disappointed that Cross was not a direct sequel.
Why can't video games be as beautiful as this one was now? :(

@kinsmon123 Back then, making games was harder. That is why developers tried their best. Now, you can make a full game using the Source SDK in 2 days just by adding textures and a bit of code. Back then, there were no patches, everything had to work on the first release. Back then...

@MINICLIPGAMER Not Sure where you got these "facts", i don't claim to know everything...., but what games are being pumped out in 2 days lol?
It's my understanding that most game development takes at least 6 months.... hell some games are taking even 3-4 years in development

@xSayPleasex Games that can actually be released for profit take a while to be made, but games made just for fun are made much faster, but can be just as good as the games made for profit. Games don't really take 4 years for development, it is usually the developers who take their time. I remember one of my friends working for Rockstar after he finished college, and one day he called me and said that most of the time there is barley 3 hours of work a day broken up over 9 hours.

My top 3 video game list are all oldies, cause games with only violence and graphics are terrible compared to the revolutionary games they made in the old days. My top three:
Zelda Ocarina of Time (Cried silently at the End, I never wanted it to end)
Chrono Trigger (Epic game one of the best)
Super Mario 64 or Paper Mario (Great Games)

I'm 20 and I live in Europe. Chrono Trigger was never released here back in 1995, and even if it had seen a release I probably wouldn't have played it as a 4 year old. I did get a chance to play it last year (the PlayStation version), and man, didn't I love it. Iv'e always been a huge RPG fan, but Chrono Trigger was just something special...
widdowson91 6 months ago
... A lot of people think that love towards retro games comes from nostalgia, but I had no nostalgia of Chrono Trigger and still found it to be arguably the best game I've ever played. You just don't get video games like this in the modern age. I've had to endure growing up through a phase where everyone is obsessed with graphics, but Chrono Trigger is from a time where gameplay was key, and it represents this perfectly.

megamanfan3 5 months ago
@widdowson91 It's easy to forget, because the graphics of the day aren't impressive anymore, that developers DID invest a lot of time and effort into making cutting-edge graphics, even back then. It has always been one of the developer's top priorities, otherwise all games would look like something made for the Atari 2600. It's true that games don't seem to play as well as they used to, but it's for lack of talent, not for lack of trying. Developers priorities haven't changed a bit.

I agree. Ever since I played Chrono Trigger a few years back, I was immediately just overwhelmed at how good it was. The gameplay was different of other RPGs, refreshing and fun. The music was a huge part for me. Absolutely amazing.
Dawngaward0110 5 months ago
@widdowson91 EXACTLY
i'm only 15, so i was either not bron yet or far too young to have played most of these old games. the earliest system i ever played on was the N64, which is part of the reason why i've been able to escape the obsession with graphics most of my peers seem to have. i love old games, and have a massive amount of respect for them. i've never been able to understand why people blindly (no pun intended) choose graphics over gameplay.

@widdowson91 I didn't play Chrono Trigger until maybe 2003, at age 17 or so, and I'm in the same boat as you. It's a super game -- one of the very best ever made. And I say that without a shred of nostalgia.

@icydesign I should do the same. As someone who didn't grow up with an SNES (Grew up in the N64 era), I've heard Chrono Trigger hailed as the "Greatest game of all time" for pretty much my whole life.
I should see if I can find an original copy on SNES, or that remade version for the DS.

@icydesign I first played Chrono Trigger sometime in the 90's pretty soon after it came out. I thought it was alright, but I had only rented it, and didn't go on to buy it. I picked it up again several years later and discovered that it was a lot better than I originally thought. On the other hand I just picked up Chrono Cross a couple weeks ago.I have no idea why it took me so long to play the sequel to a game I loved so much.
Anyway, Yasunori Mitsuda is my favourite video game composer.
