Chrono Trigger (PS3/PSP) Review - BrutalGamer.com

BrutalGamer.com writes, "I have to be honest. I’m not sure how to handle this review. You don’t have to be a hardcore gamer to recognize the name Chrono Trigger. It’s an iconic game that came out in 1995, and there’s an obvious reason why its earned it praise. It was a good game and many people loved it!

At the same time, I’m a firm believer that the past is the past, and should stay the past. Sure, I like to wax nostalgic about my favorite games and developers from the 80s, 90s, and 00s, but anytime I go back and play them, I can’t help but compare them against modern games of the same genre. The sad truth of every classic game I’ve gone back and played: they’re never quite as enjoyable as they once were."

Aaaah, I do love bad reviews.
Chrono Trigger is one of those games that is released rarely. Let`s check games that "changed gaming":

Super Mario
Final Fantasy VI
Chrono Trigger
Super Metroid
Super Mario 64
Zelda:A Link to the past and Ocarina of Time
Goldeneye
Xenogears
Final Fantasy VII
Resident Evil 4
Demon`s Soul`s

This is my opinion/list and Chrono Trigger still deserves a full score since it`s one of few games that still will be remembered for it`s uniqueness.

On SNES? Definitely.... the PS1 version was always had technical issues, sadly.

knifefight4965d ago

Been playing this lately, for the first time. Definitely a 10/10 if it weren't for the lag and load times. They are brutal. x_x

This game was, is, and always will be a classic and a defining moment not just for RPGs, but for gaming in general. It should be held in a museum.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

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

Levii_9215d 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_Brazil14d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb14d ago (Edited 14d 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.

Snookies1222d 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.

darthv7222d ago

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

goken21d ago

I am hoping a modern AAA return…

Chard21d ago (Edited 21d 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

Knightofelemia21d 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.

jznrpg20d ago

Yes to Xenogears and Xenosaga!

jznrpg21d 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
