i keep thinking that this was also in chrono trigger as a arranged version of a couple of songs. but which ones? anyways i just beaten chrono cross again a gaem i haven't played in years. it is sad and emotional the music is great. this is what games are missing these days atleast that is what i think. classic game great music perfect combo for a wonderful game. i wish the rpg games by square enix was as great as the square soft games yes i know they are the same but square soft is better
@squallcloudzell This is basically an arranged version of Schala's theme. I haven't heard Mitsuda say anything about it. However, you can pretty much overlay Schala's theme with the rhythm at 0:55.
For a minute i can´t think of a better videogame composer than Yasunori Mitsuda. Chrono trigger, Xenogears, Xenosaga and probably the best game OST ever made, Chrono Cross come to my mind.
Uematsu and Akira Yamaoka are top composers too, but Mitsuda´s music has something absolutely unique feeling wise that cannot be explained with mere words.
Can anyone recommend a good new RPG? Seriously can't find any good ones anymore. All flashy graphics, no story. Even the Final Fantasy series has turned to custard since starting on the PS2. *sigh*
@CommentFanatic I was surprised by Arc Rise Fantasia available on the Wii. As good as these classics? No, but better than most. It will make you think in your battle strategies. It's one of those games where the story gets stronger with each new scene. And quite an epic score as well.
@FencerforJesus Hmm, is that only for the Wii? I only have PC/PS3 and some old consoles. Will probably rent it and use a friends Wii if it is, the controls must be interesting. Thanks alot.
@CommentFanatic I don't play the PC games and I don't have a PS3, so I can't help for those systems. Arc Rise Fantasia is only for the Wii that I know of.
To be honest, videogames these days aren't that bad as you people claim it to be. The Zelda series and the Kingdom Hearts series are still one of many videogame series that are still considered good. Maybe it's because I'm only fifteen, but those games had an impact on me, just like this one. Whie I agree that a lot of videogames aren't as 'amazing' as some of the older ones , there are still new games that are really awesome too! :D
@TheAwesomerandom You haven't been around long enough to really know the history of gaming. Those who complain about the gaming industry are talking in general and I fully agree. Overall, gaming quality has gone down. Graphics have gone up but what makes a quality game has gone down. That being said, Zelda has been around for ages and is a standard for what gaming should be. KH is perhaps the best 'new series' out there that I've played. But it is an exception and not the rule.
@FencerforJesus I know I haven't been around long enough, but that's what cousins are for, ya know XD. Games that are from this generation and I find amazing are not very popular. Okami is a pretty amazing game, but not many people know about it. It also doesn't help that the company that produced it is now closed.
I weep for this generation. I'm 28 but I feel like this genre is dying. All everyone wants to play is COD or Battlefield and want nothing but multiplayer games and sacrficing good stories for something you'll play with your friends for a month or two and then it collects dust
The video game industry now cares more about money than quality. It creates action games and such to be physically appealing to customers. However, they no longer create amazing games with true emotion or meaning to them.
@DaNi3lJu777 While not entirely true I do agree to an extent.
There are still some RPGs and stories being made out there which still contain emotion, but none of them even come close to the ammount of emotion and feeling Chrono Cross puts out.
It's sad but I think you see more emotion in newgrounds flash games these days...
Epic! I played this game yrs ago and never got to the end... but this music motivates me all the same... Thanx for uploading this cuz I really Love Chrono Cross and it's music. Best game ever!!! >_<
...This game probably redifined what I desired in video games. Releasing Schala from Lavos and that Good Ending hit me in a place no tear-jerker film or book could match...
I can't recall the entire speech she made, but that one line stuck with me for years: "Any one of us could be that chosen life form that could inseminate a planet. Yes, even "You"...." I still don't know if she meant the player or Serge, but as a kid it made me feel...safe knowing she meant me.
I truly miss the Chrono series. Today I am a game reviewer and I gotta tell you, I don't think we will ever see another franchise like Chrono. This series is the only series I support to where I collect and support every version of the game. The story is deep, the soundtrack is one of the few that can move my very soul, and the games themself are some of the few I will continue to go back and play till the end of my days. New game or not, this series will always live inside those it touched.
I remember playing this game and morrowind long ago.....and the impact they had on me, Especially when i had a hard day i know i could come home and exist in another world and escape my problems.
WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY?
@22Lucid People started buying the crap they offer to us. And now it's all graphics and no brains into a decent storyline or great pieces of music. They have all graphics ready on an engine so most of games don't take much effort to make. And why won't they put the work on the important stuff? Because people don't make it sound important to their pockets. And that's all that matters nowadays. Sadly. The world, even the gaming world is corrupted.
@22Lucid well, bethesda went on to make oblivion, fallout 3, and now skyrim; all game of the years (skyrim is not official yet, but i think its pretty obvious). square enix fell of the radar with two less than stellar final fantasy releases with low quality gameplay. aside from what the 1/4th of the world that is retarded would want you to believe, good games ARE still being made, just look at the metal gear solid series, half life 2, mother 3, shadow of the colossus, portal, etc.
@22Lucid: They ran out of ideas. They only care about money. They are a bunch of sad pricks. No effort whatsoever in storylines, let alone music. It's all about eye candy now, which tries to sugar coat empty products. May work on noobs, but I can see right thru it.
@22Lucid exactly. This is art. The rest of the world has got to realize that games like this are the highest form of art we now possess as humans. It's not just a 'game'. It's another universe contained in an optical disc.
Long story short, people went from making games because they loved them to making games because it's profitable, or were forced to do so by greedy publishers.
@22Lucid it's gotten lazy. everyone wanting top end graphics but sucky story writing, DLC fads. What I wouldn't give to go back like 10-15 years and bring these games back now and show everyone this is what a beautiful game is
@22Lucid Wonderful games are still out there, they are just in such few numbers now. :[ With Morrowind there's Skyrim now and Mass Effect is a fantastic game. Although Chrono Cross, The Final Fantasy's and Xenogears/Xenosaga win my heart. there are a few newer games that rank up there with them, just in a different way. :]
Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great games such as Chrono Cross. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
may you continue to live on, though his not there physically but i know he lives in your heart,and he will always be and forever be you watching you. God bless you...
People say a sequel or continuation needs to be made, I dissagree, this game resolved all plot, answered our questions, and gave a solution, although Magus was intented to be Guile, that is one big flop.
But I feel that this game dug very, very deep in all of us, and I really believe that for it to try it for a third time, is simply asking too much, people no longer can appreciate a modern game.
I didn't who passed away but today before i heard this music, I found there were many people cried when heard Chrono Cross's music because their friend or who , I sad for them......
I didn't who passed away but today before i heard this music, I found there were many people cried when heard Chrono Cross's music, I sad for them......
@MrFavorite01 Chrono Trigger was released in 1995. Chrono Cross was released in 2000. *At least in my area. Think it was originally released in Japan in 1999.* Considering Chrono Trigger wasn't released for the DS until 8 years AFTER Chrono Cross, your entire post is irrelevant, and all my points still stand. Enjoy your evening.
Come to think of it...in Chrono Trigger, Schala had purple hair. In Chrono Cross, she's a blonde. So we've either discovered that 1000 AD was the start of the bleaching movement, Lavos portals not only alter time, but also dye your hair, or that being imprisoned on Lavos's back inside a crystal not only changes your hair color, but your clothing as well.
This song reminds me of my friends. We've been together since we're born, and then, each one went to study somewhere else around the country (I live in Brazil BTW). Each time one parted, I started listening this song in my head and I cried a little bit.
this reminds me of my dog dad gave it away from a stranger. i wonder if she still knows us but i miss her. i wish i could see her. this time. but i cant she lives somewhere at the mountains or whatever i just miss her im typing this while my tears are falling from my outfit cause everytime i think about her tears appears on my eyes So please i just want her back.! that's all i need since im 3 years old shes here when im 6 she's already gone. nothing can make me happy but my dog. :((
@adrenaline220 Sorry if there's not, I just want to help. Either way I'm sure she loves you and you'll see her again someday :) Don't give up hope, my friend.
I can't help tearing up when I listen to this song (lol nerd I know). I listened to this song fully for the first time around when my father died. I left my earphones in accidentally when I was drifting off to sleep, and it woke me up. Like half of the comments on this submission, I have a slew of emotions going through my head. I think of struggle, life, death, fragility, happiness, warmth, strength... The composers put so much heart into this particular track. I love it.
I wish Yasunori Mitsuda composed soundtracks up to the level of his first 3 soundtracks. Don't get me wrong, he's still fantastic, but he doesn't carry the same emotion in his most recent music. Maybe because he hasn't done a really high profile title in a while....who knows.
All your hard work, all your effort, all your suffering comes down to this moment. You use your hardships and struggles as momentum to destroy the Time Devourer and set Schala free. At last... at long last, the threat is over! Schala is freed and the last remnant of Lavos is gone forever! ...(hits reset button)... Again! Again!
A legend like this game does not need fancy graphic and cheesy love story. It's perfect as it is, I hope they don't make a cheap sequel or remake that would ruin the franchise like they did on FF 7.
i wish they could make a new chrono cross for PS3 but im afraid it might ruin the absolute best original piece of it. it's just amazing music and amazing story! it's worth it!
For all who believe this is Schala's theme or an arrangement of, allow me to direct you to the original Chrono Trigger theme, you the title screen with the pendulum. Listen to that, then come back here and listen again. Quite possibly the best orchestrations ever made. Truly masterful.
older games may have had worse graphics, but way more heart and for those who see this gain an exponentionaly greater understanding of video games and the impact that they have on all of our lives today and yes even when we get much older.............nostalgia 4 life.......
I remember bursting into tears when I released Scala from her prison and I heard this song in the background. Hey, I was only nine. But then this weird PSA speech came from Schala telling me that humans are bad, nature is good. Okay Scala, I get it. Wasn't the drastic Gnome-Fairy level subtle enough? Geez, gimme a break.
Conflicting emotions of remorse, relief, regret, victory, shock, and mystery all create this masterful song. It is purely a masterpiece of emotional appeal. Mitsuda composed one of his best here.
Proof that music is indeed a very powerful weapon. God this is beautiful... I love this music so much. I wish they played this when fighting Lavos and Schala and not just the silence...it would have set the mood so much better.
I swear, no matter how many times I hear this, it brings me to tears. It's so beautiful. There are no words to describe how amazing and powerful this song is. I love it ~
this song is so beautiful and im so lucky to have played this game when i was younger,its one of my most fav games of all time and i beat it yearly to remind me how awesome and legendary this game is.
This song makes me think of death, not life. My own ultimate death and the "nonexistence vs eternity" paradox that's actually uncomfortable to think about too deeply. The fact that as of now we are only aware of finite existence makes it difficult to fathom what it's like to not exist anymore or to keep on existing forever.
God... I can't even put in words how much I miss my friend.. He died last month on this very day.. The 13th of June, in the year of 2010... When I found this song.. It brought me to tears. But.. It gives me a sense of hope. I know I can carry on without him.. Joe, You're always in my heart, forever. This scar has become bearable.. Thanks for posting this song.
@Sasuke4ever666 hey buddie, i may not know you, but i'm sorry about your friend, i never lost any of my, so i don't know how it is to you..good luck on your life brow.
How? My boyfriend died not to long ago from cancer which is why I'm making a playlist on these songs because he loved them so much. They were his favorites.
@starocean912 Thank you. He actually just proposed to me. Then he passed. These songs give me hope. They're all I count on to keep his memory alive now.
It touch my heart, I don' t know, just listening to this, and thinking about the Time Devourer, and all being swallowed and forgotten, its all so sad, but beautiful at the same time if you think there is hope. :D
I'm so angry with chrono cross right now errrg!!!! I want to listen to every song because they are all fantastic but thats completely impossible and i just end up clicking on another song that i want to listen to like 30 seconds into the song but i don't want it to end but i have to here something eles!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH THIS MUSIC IS AWESOME!!!!! And also without the music i would give the game a 3 out of 5 but with the music I give it a 11 out of 5 because I think the music makes the game.
When I finally listened to this track after all these years, my tears just keeps flowing out I couldn't stop it. It really gave me the chills, especially from 1:00 onwards, that part just made me travel back in time to when I freed Schala and saw the ending for the first time. That feeling was just awesome. I might forget about this game someday in the future but I really am glad I had the chance to play it.
I remember the days when I used to play this game .. I used to get so lost into it that I sometimes did forget that I was living in reality instead of this game
I think there were always intentions to draw connections between CT and CC with its music. Tons to be implied by the structures of the songs. Love this soundtrack. It's my homework buddy most of the time.
Who in the fuck would have thought to come up with the method to this ending? Maybe I just wasn't paying close enough attention, though I do remember when it was hinted at.
The title suits it perfectly...

This song reminds me of my friends. We've been together since we're born, and then, each one went to study somewhere else around the country (I live in Brazil BTW). Each time one parted, I started listening this song in my head and I cried a little bit.
I hope I can meet them again in the future...

I can't help tearing up when I listen to this song (lol nerd I know). I listened to this song fully for the first time around when my father died. I left my earphones in accidentally when I was drifting off to sleep, and it woke me up. Like half of the comments on this submission, I have a slew of emotions going through my head. I think of struggle, life, death, fragility, happiness, warmth, strength... The composers put so much heart into this particular track. I love it.

I wish Yasunori Mitsuda composed soundtracks up to the level of his first 3 soundtracks. Don't get me wrong, he's still fantastic, but he doesn't carry the same emotion in his most recent music. Maybe because he hasn't done a really high profile title in a while....who knows.

All your hard work, all your effort, all your suffering comes down to this moment. You use your hardships and struggles as momentum to destroy the Time Devourer and set Schala free. At last... at long last, the threat is over! Schala is freed and the last remnant of Lavos is gone forever! ...(hits reset button)... Again! Again!

A legend like this game does not need fancy graphic and cheesy love story. It's perfect as it is, I hope they don't make a cheap sequel or remake that would ruin the franchise like they did on FF 7.

For all who believe this is Schala's theme or an arrangement of, allow me to direct you to the original Chrono Trigger theme, you the title screen with the pendulum. Listen to that, then come back here and listen again. Quite possibly the best orchestrations ever made. Truly masterful.

I remember bursting into tears when I released Scala from her prison and I heard this song in the background. Hey, I was only nine. But then this weird PSA speech came from Schala telling me that humans are bad, nature is good. Okay Scala, I get it. Wasn't the drastic Gnome-Fairy level subtle enough? Geez, gimme a break.

Conflicting emotions of remorse, relief, regret, victory, shock, and mystery all create this masterful song. It is purely a masterpiece of emotional appeal. Mitsuda composed one of his best here.

Proof that music is indeed a very powerful weapon. God this is beautiful... I love this music so much. I wish they played this when fighting Lavos and Schala and not just the silence...it would have set the mood so much better.
I swear, no matter how many times I hear this, it brings me to tears. It's so beautiful. There are no words to describe how amazing and powerful this song is. I love it ~

This song makes me think of death, not life. My own ultimate death and the "nonexistence vs eternity" paradox that's actually uncomfortable to think about too deeply. The fact that as of now we are only aware of finite existence makes it difficult to fathom what it's like to not exist anymore or to keep on existing forever.

I want to listen to every song because they are all fantastic but thats completely impossible and i just end up clicking on another song that i want to listen to like 30 seconds into the song but i don't want it to end but i have to here something eles!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH THIS MUSIC IS AWESOME!!!!! And also without the music i would give the game a 3 out of 5 but with the music I give it a 11 out of 5 because I think the music makes the game.

When I finally listened to this track after all these years, my tears just keeps flowing out I couldn't stop it. It really gave me the chills, especially from 1:00 onwards, that part just made me travel back in time to when I freed Schala and saw the ending for the first time. That feeling was just awesome. I might forget about this game someday in the future but I really am glad I had the chance to play it.
