Zoey Handley: "And really, that’s all you need to know: it’s a PlayStation-era Square RPG. Can you still stand to play Final Fantasy IX and Parasite Eve? Then Chrono Cross is worth your time, and here’s an okay way to play it. Is that era too antiquated for you? Then this remaster has no chance of changing your mind. Regardless of what you think of the game or genre, it’s not a very loving or respectful port, and Chrono Cross deserves better."
Square Enix Switch sale for 2023 Tokyo Game Show includes lowest prices ever for Chrono Cross, Romancing SaGa 3, and more.
Remasters are fantastic, but they're also a little bit weird. They give us the chance to revisit some of our favourite games from our childhood, give new players the opportunity to share in our experiences, and sometimes they represent the first time a game is getting an international release. But why are they so inconsistent.
Lazyness money grabbing sums it up. Definetly when the game gets remastered for the 2nd time like symphonia. SR3 remaster they went in and touched it up more then a supposedly remaster would. Lately there been remakes insteadve remasters and Namco shouldve remade symphonia after tales of arise success insteadve a 2nd remaster. I'll be damn of they released a 3rd insteadve a remake. With the lasted they should had done a touch up like SR3 did and fix the issues amongst others problems or a remake like RE
Square Enix: "We have released a patch that adjusts the game's balance and improves its performance. We hope this allows you to have an even better time playing Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition."
A lackluster remaster of a good game is a lackluster remaster of a good game.
I'm seeing a lot of low reviews for this, and I feel it's warranted.
I'll grab this but I still say throwing Chrono Trigger into this mix would have been a good idea.
Saving my money and putting it towards Live A Live. I don't know what it is with Square and the Chrono property but they can't seem to do it right these days. They bungled the initial release of Chrono Trigger on steam and now this. Its like they don't care. This should of been slam dunk. Instead its another black eye.
