  • NOO NO NO NOOO THEY FUCKED IT UP DUDE! I CANT BELIEVE THEY FUCKING CANCELED IT...oh wait... they canceled it a long time ago... AWW SHIT

  • the graphics can be improved greatly now a days, nonetheless, can't say that watching this trailer from a very old beloved game in my life it sure gives me hopes of seeing one day, full resurrected :megusta:

  • I don't know why people are so surprised that a bunch of wealthy uptight Japanese businessmen don't have any stake in fan creations that won't make them any money.

  • I know this would be a lot to do considering a remake but... in Japan they don't have the same copyright rules as they do in America. You can legally remake it over there. I know a few people who produced a street fighter clone and also fatal fake. Traditionally, imitation is the greatest compliment right?

    In addition, I'm not sure if you could get the rights to it to sell it. I think Akira Toriyama still retains the rights most of the key elements of the game and square-enix owns the rest.

  • Of all the sad words of tongue and pen, the worst are these:

    IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN. :'(

  • ive been playing chrono trigger for over 10 years. and I dont recall a second chrono trigger game being made...where did u find this at?

  • @StoneColdScorpio

    this was a fan remake, tho square enix shut the project down waving legal action at the people doing it

  • @OhNoNotMyPenis oh that sucks..they need to make a sequel

  • @StoneColdScorpio

    they did, chrono cross for the PS1

  • @OhNoNotMyPenis ehhh, that game has nothing to do with the original chrono triggers game

  • @StoneColdScorpio

    true but its officialy classed as a sequel to it

    an alright game but nothing like chrono trigger

  • I like, but did you guys really have to go with an art direction inspired by Akira Toriyama's PSX cutscene videos? Crono looks like a retard the way Toriyama drew him. I'd go with a more Nomura-inspired or even Ghibli look. But then I've never been able to stand anything that even slightly resembles DBZ...

  • wtf 

  • well fuck! they might as well have hired them!

  • Squaresoft and i don't mean enix, cause dragonquest still rules, made 5 mistakes. 1- A crappy movie called Spirit Withins, 2- Releasing FFX2, 3- FFXIV is in dip shit as we know by now, 4- Releasing FFXIII2 (i'm sure it's another mistake) and finally 5- Didn't had the balls to publish Chrono Resurrection.

  • @tassetoi well, I think there's still hope for XIII-2. But then, they really do seem very determined to a.) make bad business decisions and b.) turn down free money every time it's offered to them. I think the small amount of effort a PS3 port of FFVII would have cost would have been vastly compensated for with revenue but apparently they're more comfortable with money-losing projects. New management sounds like the right plan.

  • Comment removed

  • They prefer to release a sequel to FFXIII instead..................

  • This game would be great. Dammit, Squarenix!

    Chrono Trigger is my favorite rpg game, wonder if I could play this game again with this beautiful production you guys made.

    masterpiece, unfortunately Squarenix thinks FF is the best game in the world and they don't need anything else.

  • Too bad Square/Enix decided to be giant dicks and cease and desist this. Must be that it wasn't made that someone japanese as Square/Enix are giant fucking racist assholes.

  • got chills watching this vid! =()

  • a bit rough but had potential

  • any1 know where i can get the demo version PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE ?

  • square enix have become real SQUARES!

  • Comment removed

  • *Person whips up a crappy Chrono fangame in RPGmaker.*

    Square Enix: Whatever....

    *Group of people work together to make an Chrono awesome game.*

    Square Enix: Cancel it. NOW.

  • Chrono Trigger is about to released on the PSN.

    Square's desire to continually re-release Trigger is the reason why the fan project was killed.

    Sigh..

  • @nathanmaxtro1 Yeah but sadly they always re-release it in 2D while they did in fact re-release some of the old FF in 3D... like FF3 ¬¬

  • one of if not THE greatest game never made.... not for a lack of trying eather

  • Maybe not fully endorse, because they've been scrounging all the money they've been able to lately. But instead, if they just 'supported' this team. The team could sell it for a decent price, and a good chunk of that would go to SquEnix. TONS of people would LOVE this game, myself included. Both teams would get plenty of profit. GRRRR SQUEEEEEENNNIIIIIIIIXXXXX

  • If I were in charge of the project, I would of laid low after the cease & desist letter, finished the game and quietly released it to the fan community over then net, let em' spread the word and the game.

    And if SE came knocking, I'd just say "I dunno what your talking about. . .someone else must of picked it up and finished it. . ."

  • Square went to utter shit after they merged with Enix they was better as seperet companies WHYYYYYYYY

  • SE could have bought this from them at least. The amount of effort put into this is absolutely extraordinary.

  • SO EPIC!

  • I would defentily PAY FOR IT!!!!

  • when they stopped making chrono games, i stopped playing playstation, until they make another, my entire town will happily enjoy xbox 360, see what you did square enix, you suck, you suck so much.... .........chrono killers

  • I would pay 300 bucks for this game if it actually existed.

  • Damn it, Squeenix. Not only do you C&D this, but Crimson Echoes as well. Great job alienating your fans, guys.

    I think that someone should just do something like this and keep it hush-hush until the actual release. That way, even if Squeenix C&D's it, it's still out there.

  • best game ever

  • This had so much potential. The animation looks better than half the games made now! and this was originaly done for the n64! This still makes fans of the game moist with anticipation. Sqaure needs to pull thier thumbs outta thier asses and get this thing going.

  • Yes Enix is a pile of shit!! ChronoRes!!! I want it!! and Square I will pay for 13 sequels like this too!

  • @isyou fucking hater

  • @isyou I bet you are playing some CoD right now, or maybe thinking about sucking Cloud's balls. Squaresoft was the greatest RPG Company of all time, when they merged with Enix, everything became a pile of shit.

  • Sure, run my favorite game series into the ground AND cancel the most ambitious indy project of all time. THANKS SQUENIX!

  • I have to think... What could have been with this game. The more I do so, the angrier I get...

  • Ye here's what I got for ya, I'll send a message to the fb groupe soon enough.

  • Magus in HD.. mmmmm (nohomo)

  • Square-"Enix" is the mainstay of the problem, I can remember quite a few Games that blew my mind before Enix polluted "Square Soft" seriously...whats the deal guys? why the hell did you let Enix get their crappy hands on you?

  • @M16Gunhand Dude, have you ever PLAYED a pre-merger Enix game? They're great.

    It's not Enix that ruined Square. It's Square and Enix who ruined each other.

  • I think the main problem is that Square is focusing too much on the Final Fantasy series.

    Square needs to start focusing more on the Chrono series. At least revive the Chrono series by putting Chrono Cross on PSN and make Chrono Crisis, Break, and Resurrection.

  • @MastrSonic or atleast make a rpg other than final fantasty at least

  • @wootsausemanman Either that or put some references from Chrono Trigger to Kingdom Hearts (since it's a made by Square Enix and an RPG).

  • @MastrSonic thats not the point of kingdom heats its a combo of final fantasty and disney cartoons

  • @wootsausemanman Ik. Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy have a huge fanbase, so does the Chrono Trigger series,but Square doesn't focus on that series that much anymore... Lavos is destroyed, so there's not much Square Enix can do after that...

    So, for them making another RPG series or continuing the Chrono series will be tough since they haven't thought of the main plot yet...

  • @MastrSonic look at chrono cross the sequel they can just do that agian :P

  • @wootsausemanman I seen the squeal and the ending. If they plan to revive the series, then they have to make an antagonist of the game since Lavos (the main antagonist of the series) got destroyed. They can continue after Chrono Cross or start a new plot. :/

  • Honestly I dont thing CT needs a graphical update, it still looks great. The sprites and environments have held up surprisingly well. Of course I'm a bit biased, I'd take sprites over 3d models any day of the week.

    That being said I would play this game and LOVE every second of it. How could you NOT enjoy CT?

  • @Slantzalot the first kingdom hearts was fine, but then they are starting to milk that franchise by chopping up the plot for each fucking game... I've lost a lot of respect for square. they are too damned strict with their copyright

  • Instead of this we get Kingdom Hearts games...FUCK YOU SQUARE ENIX!

  • Curses!! 

  • square enix full of retards.... 10 thumbs up for Nathan Lazur the designer of CHRONO REZ~! i understand why square had put up a copyright infrigment law on the chrono rez team but... think about if they actually supported them hired them~! fuckin ay fans actually even put up a petition online to get the chrono rez up and going again... FUCKIN WAAAAAAAAAAACK

  • i'm sorry:(

  • It's incredible how you can see the love for the game in this trailer. This team captured all the small details like the way Magus plays with his gloves

    The present SE will never be as detailed as this, why? Because they only care about the money. They don't "care" about the "soul", only the fans respect the game. A proof of what I'm saying is the downfall of the ff.... they just aren't the same anymore... I bet fans would treat ff with the same respect and love this team worked with CT

  • goodness gravy!why did they cancelled it?!?!?!

  • @ningeaBLADEclanuBECA its all about money... but they could've alteast they couldve said good job or something

  • Some HAS to have the files SOMEWHERE!!!!! 

  • I would prefer paying the price of Final Shit XIII for this one so square and enix may shove it up their fucking poor-inspirated asses

    Sorry for the english

  • Doing another CT would be a lot of responsabilities for them, cuz it MUST be a great game like the first one. This looks beautiful and they can make a lot of money if they sell it XD

    But at the same time, how would be the criticism if the game is not good enough?

  • I can sort of understand why Square decided to shut this down. While the team that worked on this did a great job, their vision isn't necessarily the same as the true makers' vision was. I mean, the visuals are nice but something about it seems stale compared to how I imagined the original. I want another Chrono Trigger as much as anyone else, but ya gotta trust Square's decision. More likely than not they saw elements that didn't fit CT in this, and didn't want the original idea changed.

  • this is beautiful... and the fact that it's a fan remake is amazing... WHY SQUARE ENIX?! WHY'D YOU HAVE TO FILE A CEASE AND DESIST AGAINST THIS?! it would have been so epic... *sob*

  • @LittleBigMac1 Because of the same reason they canceled Radical Dreamers: SQUARE is full of retards. They don't know a good game even if it kills their families...

  • aniquilare a los productoress de squareenix por cancelar el projecto

  • nunca salio wuaaaaaaaaa

  • Prettier than most full release retail games of this type imo.

  • Square Enix could have just bought it if they were jealous, and released it.. for the fans sake

  • @stevejaen seriously wtf, god know if they will seriously consider a remake of chrono ever haha

  • lol Gaspar at the end.

    If only square wasn't so mean

  • Maybe they were worried that they'd screw it up?

  • sucks that the project has been shut down, it would have been great to see a classic like chrono trigger in 3D..

    if they would have ask permission from square..

  • @rvv81seven even if they had asked Square, the result would have been the same... nowadays I have 2 problems with Square: Their games are getting worse and they forbid everyone to make great games based on theirs...that's just not how the world should be.

    Just look how much work it had been just to make this trailer! And all you get is a game company claiming the rights of the game and tearing your work apart...

  • If Squenix had even an iota of intelligence and common sense, they'd have hired the Resurrection team and fully endorsed the project.

    But they're evidently too busy ruining their own franchises to do something smart.

  • @Maphysto I agree. But I bet they just fire anyone at squaresoft who even thinks about suggesting a non-Final Fantasy game.

  • @Maphysto Not surprising to me after the FFVII "Tech Demo". Gamers around the world leaped up in joy at the thought that Square might do something as smart as porting FFVII to PS3, then had to sit down again sadly as Square was quick to remind us, "No, we were just cruelly teasing you. Again."

    The correct way to visualize Square here is as an evil Willy Wonka who keeps the tastiest candies locked in a vault in the Chocolate Factory, never to be released to the children of the world. :P

  • WHY SQUARE ENIX?!?!? WHHYYYY!?!?!? this came would have been amazing...

  • agrred, this makes crono look incredible, the idiots at square enix just shutdown something awesome.

  • @mihalikman107 cause square enix realise this is better than anything they put out these days

  • @mihalikman107 for fuckin real man they would not have lost out on money at all i love the chorno series its what got me started on rpg s

  • so what was this for?when was this made?i want it!!!....classic RPG's kick ASS!!!!!!!

  • @jgoth08 Square Enix was a douche bag and thretened to sue the guys who made this so they had to shut down the project. It ended a few years ago and no you cant download it or find it anywhere since they shut down the project.

  • that really suck..chrono cross was amazing and i think chrono trigger was good...long time so i dont remember it that well.too bad u cant download it anywhere..it looks so awesome..i wonder if there ever is gonna be another chrono game..alot of classic games that id love to see get a sequel/remake...legend of dragoon,FF7,suikoden,dragon quest(not on DS)

  • I would think that things like plot and gameplay would be more important than the art style.

    Sure, I might understand if the art style was that of a kid's drawing in a game that was meant to be serious or if it was just a bunch of boxes that didn't look like anything, but just because it was done by the guy who made Dragon Ball?

  • God, if Square Enix was capable of this quality, I wouldn't pirate every one of their mediocre, G-rated games. I mean, when have they produced something that wasn't only palatable to retarded Japanese girls and basement dwellers?

    I have never paid for a Square Enix game. And since I heard about this I don't think I will. If the best they have to offer is that FFIV remake, then, I'm sorry, this is my new standard. A fan team beat you, Square Enix.

    Way to become the Sega of the 21st century.

  • I want everyone to suffer so try to imagine how badass Lavos would look

  • That's nothing. Imagine seeing what all of the Master Techs (including Triple Techs) would be remastered as. Luminaire, Arc Impulse, Omegaflare, and even, the infamous, Poyozo Dance. -__-

    Square Enix really busted my chops when I saw this project. It's almost like taking the life of a newborn. Babies have fingernails, Squeenix!

  • fuuuuuuck

  • fucking square-enix is so fuckin dumb! let me tell u why:

    they produce wack ass games since the fusion with enix. squaresoft were THE rpg masters for consolegames and produced one mature masterpiece after another. now they make silly as conversions of great games in a very childish way. they arent capabale anymore to produce classic rpgs and they neither remake old classic games into recent platforms in a MATURE way not with silly ass child graphics but for ps3 or xbox360 with great graphics

  • man i miss the classic final fantasys and chronos..and the new ones suck....in a way..i want to play something completely epic...like FF7 remake..or 13 if its gonna be great...i like dragon quest 8 alot tho.

  • Fuck Square Enix for closing this project!

    ... Fuck 'em to hell...

  • wut the.... AARRGGGGG!!!!

  • my eyes...there are tears.

    fucking squeenix! Fuck! FUUUCK

  • wtf square you sons of bitches. it wouldve been much wiser to making this an official game and make some moneyz out of it. wouldve sold a shitload

  • definately! look what happened with street fighter 4, they kept the things what fans loved in it and it selled hella lot! they dont have ANY reason for not makin great games like chrono trigger anew or a sequel to games like these. if i would be the ceo i would fire them all, they so fuckin idiots!

  • ha ha... "square-enix ordered a cease and desist" yeah, because is makes them look like fools for not doing something like this themselves and making a crappy DS copy.

  • Hell yeah!

  • ah well, shame it was cancelled, but it would've made one kick-ass anime series

  • The question is: what would've it been off from SE?

  • Lol u are a dumb motherfucker

  • The fuck is wrong with you Can you read? it was canceled.

  • I was really upset when I heard that they were going to scrap this. But at the same time, when you really consider it, it might have been for thebest. Some things are best just left classics. I just find it a shame that there aren't any good RPG's like Chrono Trigger being made anymore.

  • There is no demo to download. Never will be either. Games been scrapped. Only videos, music, and pictures exist now.

  • NOOOOOOOO

    why?????

  • Anyone know where I'd still be able to download the demo for this?

  • this makes me sad

  • wow, what a stunning looking game. I love how the graphics are bright and colorful as opposed to the dark, brown ones that are so common in modern games. I don't think I've seen anything quite like this--so according to everyone this game is officially canceled then?

  • Damn,that would been a great game...

    The graphics are almost the same as Dragon Quest and it selled fine...

    I just don't understand why this...

    Well,in the end you can't blame 'em...

    The global economic crisis must have affected Square also...

    Yet again,it makes me sad to see a good game go down the drain...

  • This should've been done. It should seriously happen. But I think it should be released for the Wii or PS3.

  • xbox 360 ;)

  • The music is freggin' amazing. The DS port should've remixed the music like this.

    The DS port has to be one of the laziest things I've ever seen. =/

  • Square should've just done what Valve would do in this situation; hire the talented people and add them to your staff. Give them money to finish and IMPROVE their game, then release it. Profit. Everyone happy.

  • The exact same thing came to my mind. You see talented people with good ideas and a promising project, instead of threatening to use legal actions against them, why not evaluate their effort, I mean, Square Enix could have made some serious money off a Chrono Trigger remake like this one. Go figure.

  • this is really impressive. too bad that it got canceled, though. it would've been great. :[

  • How could Square Enix take this as a threat? I mean, if these guys were planning on making this game free, then there shouldn't really be any problem..

  • copyright... that was the problem. they were making a remake of the game from Square Enix and that's against the law unless they buy the rights to do it. And the game wasn't supposed to be free. It was supposed to go to N64. So Square Enix had reasons to do this... althought I think it was just wrong, they could at least do some collab work, like with Disney in Kingdom Hearts. This could be a great remake :(

  • Man- this looked great. That's really stupid that Square-Enix would shut down such a great looking project. Pity...

  • Damn Square-Enix!!!

    They tought spirtes were good for the DS!!!!

    F**k You Square-Enix!!!!!

    Well this project was good I can tell

    :)

  • You show how immature you really are.

  • damn why this project disbanned, if it was still continue till now, i'm sure they will finish it in no time

    after all this project was non profit, and they make it this good

  • ARGH, damn them for forcing it to be cancelled :(

    While in some ways I feel CG cannot capture a certain level of the "feel" and art involved, properfacelifting would still make it enjoyable...

  • This deserves to be done by square, as they were the ones who send the cease and desist letters to these guys.If they dont want fans working in remakes, then they must make one decent themselves.Also, now its easier to find half of the dream team, as toriyama usually works in dragonquest, and horii is at hand, and as most of the music was done by Yasunori Mitsuda, and in part by uetmasu, i think they arent that hard to contact. jazz+metal+orchestra versions by the black mages would be awesome...

  • Luminar at the end looked great. I totally would have bought this remake.

  • Couldn't square-enix have been a lil less cheap and bought out the developers of ressurection thus giving them money for the time they would spend remaking Chrono Trigger

    and then sold it as a ps2 remake making money for Square-enix Guess they were too stupid to see the big opprotunity

    what a shame

  • reminds me of that zelda trailer 2000. This deserves to be finished.

  • I don't know how well this would have turned out, but it would have been nice to know.

  • they really should pick up this project again. square enix should give them money to finish it. i swear i'd pay money for this game.

  • What else could Square-Enix do to preserve the little prestige they have left? Being innovative in making good games and listening to their old-school fans is out of the question.

  • Square...*sigh* to just cancel an innocent project like this....what a pity.... i mean we already know who made the concept of chrono Trigger and still they insited on doing the whole copyright crap...kudos to the guys who made this fan project, even though it's canned, it was a good cause.

  • garlic jr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Maybe because the "original" characters were designed by Akira Toriyama, the creator of DB/Z

  • fuck that stupid Chrono Trigger for DS....Squaresoft is getting soft....so to speak. This project was phenomenal

  • This, at least, would have been way better than the DS port they're working in now. I'll still buy it, but only because I don't own neither the snes version, nor the PS one.

  • This would not have been very good anyway, in all honesty. Kind of a travesty.

  • what the hell makes you say that?

  • Did you even try reading any of the comments or the video description?

  • Why, Square, Why! I hate them more now!

  • that's what i'm talking about: A game made by the fans for the fans !!!!!!!

  • Actually it's not the whole game, just a remake of some parts (Like the beginning, the Zenan Bridge, the final battle, etc.)

    ...And that's why they shouldn't have cancelled it. Chances are Square didn't even know it wasn't a full remake... *Sigh*

  • I've never seen a company, in this case Square, making so many wrong decisions in such a short period of time. They are managing to bury the name it has built over couple of decades, in no time. Destroyed Final Fantasy franchise to reach new fans, losing the old ones... didnt manage to get new ones with this maneuver... And small decisions like this of cancelling such a nice project, instead of hiring this team of developers. The time of good games with plot and "turns" is surelly over.

  • I totally agree. Sqauresoft has plummeted into pure crap. Sqauresoft needs to get rid of enix and and go back to doing what they are good at.

  • In fact I dont think this was the problem. Enix made quite a few wonderful games, such as the Dragon Quest series, Valkyrie Profile also. I just think Square has a very poor strategist team ahead of their business decisions. Why change something that was working perfectly? Also, why insist on something that doesnt work that well?

  • the fact that Square's catering to their "worst" fanbase is really depressing. And by the worst I'm referring to the rampant fans of Final Fantasy VII.

    Than again they must be getting their shit together since they've released the remake of Final Fantasy IV, and the rereleases of Dragon Quest 4-6, and Chrono Trigger. They even have a new franchise coming soon, but who knows if it'll have any merit.

    All we can hope for in the future is the possibility of a make-over of Final Fantasy 6

  • I believe that the decision to rerelease old games without improvements, and by this I mean, real improvements in graphics, sound, add-ons etc is only a proof of the discredit of the company. They notice they are sinking with new projects each time worse, but try to hold their grounds by trying to please old fans and squeeze some dimes from them with such releases but only showing where the real investment is destined to... yes, another "action" game passing for Final Fantasy.

  • I do like how they chose to use "what's his name"'s anime-stylings :P you know, the creator of the Dragonballz Anime-style, whom also created the image on the front of the CT box :P

  • Toriyama did the character designs for the whole game.

  • ah yes, Akira Toriyama, that's the guy. I like how Chrono Ressurection was set to use Toriyama's anime-stylings as a base for the 3D character designers.

  • It originally wasn't, until I bitched and bitched that it's blasphemous to go any other way. HAhaha. :)

  • @tssf

    -- LOL!

  • bring it back!!! i'd sooooooo play it

  • Legally, they can't. That's why it was cancelled in the first place--Square-Enix threatened legal action against them if they didn't stop (despite the fact that there was never any intention to profit off this game, although since I don't know much about copyright law, I shouldn't say anything).

  • Square Enix technically had nothing to do with it, the company is just so huge that the little stuff goes unnoticed, I'm not sure the owners of Square even realize Chrono Ressurection even existed, they're too busy enjoying their fortune :P while an evil marketing department runs their company... it happens when a company becomes too big, take Blizzard for example, look at that god-awful MMORPG they made, it was so horrible, the original warcraft creators QUIT!

  • Well, in any case, Chrono Trigger's now coming out for the DS, so I'm happy. :)

  • by god awful mmorpg you dont mean WoW right? -_-

  • damn it i want to play Chrono Resurrection

  • Square needs to quit living in the dream world and wake to the potential of chrono. I mean... come on.

  • Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Star Ocean2, and Star Ocean1 (dejap patch w/ emu), are in my opinion the best RPGs ever made... although CC's combat system / lack of plot until the end was annoying. But theres about 30 FFs if not more, and 2 Chronos? 3 counting Radical Dreamers but that was like 10 hour game play doing all 7 senerios +2 bonus and it was Text Based. This is plain ridiculous, a Chrono Resurection would be awesome. It has so much potential and so many people around the world love it.

  • I mostly agree. Those 4 are my favorite games too. And it's true that CC's plot wasn't as good as CT's, that's why I prefer the latter. But I think CC battle system was a good attempt and an example from the time when Square-Enix (Squaresoft back then) still took some risks.

  • Anyway, FF is a mediocre concept when you compare it to that of Chrono Saga. Their endless expanding of FF would be totally uncalled for if they weren't craving for money and so many gamers weren't so easily deceived by fancy crap.

  • AGreed. SE needs to stop milking FF and DQ -- they are good RPGs, but they are overpopularized. Chrono and Star Ocean need more love, as they are what, 2-, 3-hit wonders? (A 4th SO is in the works) Right now SO is getting a deserved spotlight. I just wait for Chrono's turn.

  • chrono trigger is my favorie, i don't know why, but i just love the game (mabey cuz i get to take town giant demons easily)
