We both figured the school year held plenty of time to complete the games and swap 'em back. But before we could return the games to their rightful owners, graduation day came, and life had already placed us on separate paths -- I suddenly couldn't play one of my favorite games of all time. The eventual Chrono Trigger PlayStation rerelease (and other...less savory methods of playing) rolled around, but those experiences were decidedly different -- inferior -- to the real thing".

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.
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.
Yuji Horii may have accidentally confirmed a Chrono Trigger remake at Comicon in Naples. Eyewitness accounts suggest the beloved JRPG could be returning in HD-2D form.
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.
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
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.
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
Dragon Ball staff reveal how Akira Toriyama created one of Chrono Trigger's most memorable characters as the RPG celebrates its 30th anniversary.
The god of rpgs reigns supreme again!
....imagine a true remake!!
Glorified port or not, I'll still be picking this one up. Great game.
I'm going to play this game for free...on my computer.
I wonder why they didn't add the things into the game that were in the Chrono Trigger beta so many years ago. I'd have liked to see Schala as an additional playable character :(
One of the best rpg ever made in human history. It is still better than a lot of new jrpgs like last remnant.
