26 years later, the best RPG ever made still lives up to the hype

This 1995 SNES classic is every bit as good as you've heard.

Chrono Trigger is such an amazing, timeless game that anyone can enjoy. I just wish we got more in the series.

MrNinosan846d ago

I loved both Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross and would love to have a re-release, just to play them on a current gen console again, preferbly with Platinum Trophies.

Chard846d ago

The Steam version is pretty good now after all the patches it received. I just wish they'd also patch out the HP/ATB bars under each character.

franwex846d ago

I thought they were gonna talk about Bahamut Lagoon, lol.

jznrpg846d ago (Edited 846d ago )

Definitely one of my favorite games of all time but I’m getting older and my list is really long . I do remember the time travel very well . Cool game I should replay it again soon

RaidenBlack846d ago (Edited 846d ago )

It needs a Remake. Period.
4th & 5th gen games need the Remake treatment, the most.
Definitely much more than Dead Space and likes.

PiNkFaIrYbOi846d ago

They just need to leave it alone. It is fine the way it is. Besides Square is nowhere near what they use to be and would probably just end up ruing the remake.

JaXion5845d ago

FFVII PS4 is a fantastic remake, the only bad thing about it is they separated it into parts.

chronoforce845d ago

The way Dragon Quest 11 turned out gives me hope they actually could pull it off. DQ 11 has all the ingredients of a Chrono Trigger game, they even nailed the Toriyama art style in 3D.

lucian229845d ago

a remake on that scale would be very tough. Best they can do is a remaster without going the full ff7re style. it's very costly to do that, but would look amazing.

I'd be happy with a full remake going the route of Dragoncrown/Odin Sphere quality sprites, and new backgrounds, updated music and add voice acting .That'd be the best way to keep it faithful but still keep it feeling fresh.

Knightofelemia846d ago

It's right up there on my favorites for jrpgs Chrono Cross was just as good. Yasunori Mitsuda hands down one of the best music composers the music in Chrono Trigger was great and still is great love his music in Xenogears as well. I still have my SNES cart and PS1 version of Chrono Trigger and my Chrono Cross PS1 game as well.

Shiken845d ago

Yes this is my favorite IP of all time. You have CT, using tinetravel to save the future. Then you have CC...the consequences of time travel and going against FATE...the perfect yin and yang that compliment eachother far more than some people will admit.

I just want a 3rd mainline game to tie up some of the loose ends, or maybe aome extra content headed by Kato in a Trigger/Cross remake that covers it. This IP truly had endless potential, and it is a shame that Square abandoned it just because the games never reached FFVII numbers.

Radical Dreamers bridges the gap between Trigger and Cross.

Shiken844d ago

@crazyaejay

False, Radical Dreamers exists in its own timeline outside of the main Trigger timeline and the two from Cross. In Chronopolis there is a nod to RD's existence (as it was the prototype Cross was based on), but is not directly connected to the other two games.

Similar to Dinopolis, the RD timeline is from its own alternate reality based on the many worlds theory. Home World and Another World in Cross are two alternate realities that branch directly off of CT as a result of Time Travel. They are not the same.

It's long been thought that a Chrono Trigger remake is impossible, but the Super Mario RPG remake could pave the way.

It's already been said that they weren't motivated to do anything with the series unless the gang was back together, not really for any legal reasons.

FinalFantasyFanatic301d ago

I'm honestly happy with the Steam port of the game.

Mobile Games Killed The Dream Of Chrono Trigger 3

A third Chrono series game called Chrono Break was planned, but Square prioritized an MMORPG, and Chrono Break’s concepts were used in mobile games.

Square isn’t what it used to be.

CrimsonWing69420d ago

It’s true.

Squaresoft used to be like the equivalent of Naughty Dog back in the day. When you heard Squaresoft was making a game you knew it’d be a banger.

god I miss those days.

porkChop420d ago

Yeah they used to be the best in the industry. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within is the worst decision they ever made. While they had previously talked about merging with Enix, that film flopping so hard left them with no other option.

CrimsonWing69419d ago

@porkChop

My understanding is that merger was happening before the film and the flop of the film freaked them out because they thought Enix would call it off.

I personally wish Square Pictures was a success. I thought the Matrix shirt they did was cool and they were pushing computer animation into a more mature realm.

Unfortunately, Spirits Within noted many and wasn’t the FF movie a lot of fans wanted. I thought it was decent, but something like Advent Children should’ve been the direction they went.

Ronmaest414d ago

To me, Naughty Dog is now Naughtycucks.p after that god awful story in LoU 2.

It was people like Yasumi Matsuno that held it for me, at Squaresoft. The company thought them too radical and ran them out. And now they yearn for people like that. They’re short sighted and pathetic.

GoodGuy09420d ago

Square ruined pretty much every great old franchise they've had.

franwex420d ago

Kinda misleading title, even from reading the article itself.

The staff and management couldn’t come to an agreement and the team moved on. Part of the team went to creat ff11 and the rest to Monolith software. Ideas for this game were implemented in some form to mobile games-later on. Which make sense as early 2000s mobile phones were not as powerful.

Top 20 Soundtracks From the 16-Bit Era

In the 16-bit era, game devs and composers could finally change the type of tones used in the music, simulating a wider array of instruments and creating a whole lot of great soundtracks in the process.

It wasn’t easy picking out the best of the best because there were so many great ones. Even middle-of-the-road soundtracks seemed to deserve a bump if the game was just that damn good, and so many from that era are that damn good!

Here's the Ghetto Gamer list of top 20 soundtracks from the 16-bit era.
