IGN's Cast of Characters: Chrono Trigger DS

Welcome to another edition of Cast of Characters. Here at IGN Stars, it's not often they give this treatment to 13-year-old games. Chrono Trigger is an exception. In case you missed the big announcement yesterday, Square-Enix will be porting the game to the Nintendo DS in time for a holiday 2008 release.

IGN expect there were many gamers who were either too young or just too distracted to enjoy the game when it was released on the SNES and Playstation. Maybe it's been so long since you played the game that you've forgotten the characters altogether. Fear not. This feature breaks down all the members of Crono's ragtag band and what their connection to the greater conflict is.

Never played the game as it never released in Europe so I will definitely will get it.

LaChance6206d ago (Edited 6206d ago )

never got to play it for the same reason.
But I dont have a DS.
They should bring it to PSP.

Homicide6206d ago

Same here. Buying a DS for it. Heard lots of great things about it.

Skerj6206d ago

I wouldn't read this if you haven't played CT (SHAAAME, just kidding) and you intend on getting the DS version, massive spoilers abound. I hope the stuff that couldn't make it in the original gets put in the DS version since the cart size is larger and they've been doing full remakes of Final Fantasy 1-5 repeatedly. So CT should get the same love or MORE love.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_9252d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil51d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb51d ago (Edited 51d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

I want a full on 3d remake but I suppose HD2D is fine.

Snookies1259d ago

So many people want HD2D, but I agree 100%. Chrono Trigger is in my top 3 of all-time. I want to see what this could be like re-imagined in full 3D. The sprites look good enough in the original, in my opinion. What would be amazing, is if they just went for both haha. Give us the HD2D to tide us over while they work on the full remake.

darthv7259d ago

I'd imagine it would be something like... chrono cross

goken59d ago

I am hoping a modern AAA return…

Chard59d ago (Edited 59d ago )

I'm still skeptical of HD-2D, and still want them to fix remaining foibles in the current Steam version. At any rate I've been seeing online that this rumour has been debunked

Knightofelemia58d ago

I would jump for a remake of Chrono Trigger then hopefully a remake of Chrono Cross. I wish Xenogears and the Xenosaga trilogy also got a remake or a remaster.

jznrpg57d ago

Yes to Xenogears and Xenosaga!

jznrpg58d ago

I am surprised it hasn’t been done already. It’s widely considered as one of the best RPGs all time. I’ll take it for sure. I want a Vagrant Story remake as well
