Chrono Cross was a brilliant game and was a top contender for Game of the Year back in 2000. It wasn't underrated. It was excellent, a lot of Chrono Trigger fans just had huge issues with the story. Sort of how Mortal Kombat fans largely feel about Mortal Kombat 9.

[@chrisjackson6149]

@107073785572171727213 Key word "ALONE", as in, their main purpose was not simply to just milk money out of people like what free-to-play games do, for instance.

[@MrBorderlands123]

***** I'm unaware of any games that require actual monetary transactions outside of the initial one to get the full enjoyment of the game, companies have stated that around 90% of transactions are made by 10% of the player base - it's essentially harmless. Sounds to me like you have your fedora on too tight

[@chrisjackson6149]

Matthew Etter Dungeon Keeper, NHL 12 and 13, FIFA 14 and 15, NBA 2K14, Angry Birds 2, Castlevania: Lords of the Shadows, Need For Speed Online, Allods Online... Needs I say more? Some games are fucked up by micro-transactions. If the game cannot be fully enjoyed without paying extra money after purchase, then that's a bad sign; if you're a casual then you probably won't care, but the ones that more money to companies are us gamers. Also, remember when Asura's Wrath ending was locked behind DLC? Yeah, sure, there aren't any games that were messed up because of DLC, am I right?

[@hethweek2116]

Masato Kato he directed chrono trigger and chrono cross and he said, We didn't want to directly extend Chrono Trigger into a sequel, but create a new Chrono with links to the original. Yes, the platform changed; and yes, there were many parts that changed dramatically from the previous work. But in my view, the whole point in making Chrono Cross was to make a new Chrono with the best available skills and technologies of today. I never had any intentions of just taking the system from Trigger and moving it onto the PlayStation console. That's why I believe that Cross is Cross, and NOT Trigger 2. ” so chrono cross is not a sequel. - Masato Kato

[@levijohnson5660]

Agreed!

[@jamiemoll2484]

Yeah Dude!

[@eartianwerewolf]

Chrono Cross IS AWESOME but lets be honest. the plot is a bit convuluted...which is usual for this style of rpg but still you can normally work out the plot. I think where Chrono Cross dropped the ball was trying to cram in Crono, Lucca, and Marle. It could have *SPOILERS* taken up the story of Magus and Schalia without adding in Crono, Lucca and Marle and it would have made more sense.. Actually I sort of felt like the ties to Crono Trigger generally held the game's story back. It could have unfolded into something that was more coherent and it honestly didn't even need to be tied to the other game. Ps, I like Crono Cross better than Crono Trigger, but I recognize that Crono Cross does have a lot of faults....

I remember when I visited the Dead Sea and Chronopolis for the first time, and it was as if the universe were talking to me, saying "everything is just about survival, but in a really deep way, beyond time and space". It was so fucking frightening and, at the same time, peacefully. I'd never experienced something like that before. And the end of the game, representing the perfect triumph of life...

@@jayteepanganiban4301 You remember also when a game used to be a "complete" product. Now a days its all sold like piece meal like some version of a complete game, only to find out that dlc is micromanaged to its consumers thuroughout the next 4 years. That wouldn't be so bad if companies did not take advantage of this system and actually go back and re-edit and have major story revisions, huge gameplay elements removed or changed, etc. Also I don't know if im the only one that doesn't notice this but with abstractional based graphics, like zone based, sprites and polygons, scale of rpgs used to be so large and the volume was amazing. Now its like most rpgs are tiny small franctions of what they used to be and the rest of it just padded out to the extreme with open world gameplay or mundane revisiting and exploring, etc. take FF VII remake and FF XV as pure examples of that. Consequently that is whY i focus more intently on traditional style rpgs like Tales of or Dragon quest or Octopath traveler, because at least you feel like your getting something worthy in its size in terms of the scope of the world and story, etc. As technology evolves into this photo realism, 4k scalling, so to does the restriction and limitations that are placed on designers to be able to expand there rpgs.

[@novarepter386]

@@Artimes. Agreed, as much as I love FFXV it has a lot of glaring flaws cause it tried to be this grand open world game with a massive story plan worked out that was all locked behind DLC. Their DLC got cancelled halfway through and they had to tell the rest through a book. Despite all this the story, music and arguably the combat are incredible and I really wish they just kept the style of FF to how they were in the PS1/ Early PS2 era as it was their golden age and had FFXV been in that style (or Octopath's HD2D) and not planned like 7-8 DLCs I doubt they'd have any of those problems and it would be in my top 5 favourite games of all time

Yet even then, we ran like the wind, Whilst our laughter echoed, Under cerulean skies..." ^God, these words and this song never leave my mind, ever.

Benso Exactly, it has that Special... certainly the best RPG

[@marcosdheleno]

its kinda funny how people will point to dragon age origins and talk about how grandiose it was, when chrono cross surpassed it and made an even grander story, but much better twists and a much larger and more complex cast of characters, each with their own adventures, desires and reasons to be.

[@TonyGrand79]

I agree! Beautiful game in every way.

[@geronnemar-fan9461]

yup...agreed......it just has a.....feel to it....unique

[@Samuel-96]

Yeah, there is something that's really hard to describe but this game is special.

[@AS7Promitus]

Back when RPG openings were works of art all on their own. I still think about the words at the beginning.

[@romulofidelis2888]

How many out of context spoilers you want in your opening? Square: Yes

[@judgehodor2675]

A spoiler requires enough context to give away some plot point to someone who isn’t familiar with the material. A few moments might qualify if over analyzed. But if I try watching this without the story in mind, what I mostly get is awesome ****.

[@romulofidelis2888]

@@judgehodor2675 Yup and that's why this opening is so amazing and well made, it shows A LOT of scenes from disc 2 that would be major plot points, but it's so well made that doesn't give any piece of the experience, in the end it's just a bunch of visually stunning scenes that gives absolute hype to anyone who watch it!

Happy 20th Anniversary *11/18/1999 - 11/18/2019*

[@sadiqabduljalil7067]

It’s been more than 20 years since I played this jewel. Surprisingly, i still have the desire to relive my teenage memories. I guess anyone who is still addicted to this game is my soulmate. Hail to the great chrono cross.

[@HayateKusanagi]

And now, we, the old guard, wish to give you a gift. From beyond time, from beyond worlds, we hand you one of our flawed but oh so beautiful jewels. Come with us, onto the cerulean skies, and see what we saw twenty years ago.

[@Salrie-Antlerhorn]

I was only 6 when my dad bought this game. Fell in love with it when I first played it and this intro was memorable. Chrono Cross and Final Fantasy IX were my childhood RPGs.

[@john78tv]

Wow, I remember playing this title back when I was in college... brings back some fond memories!

[@yobilllin9939]

wish this awesome game being remake for ps4...

[@Gundamseeddabest]

I wish your english being better than this

[@sladexiong3668]

+Yobill Lin i totally agree they should make a remake of this for ps4 i'd totally buy it just to play it all over again XD

[@TheHelghastkilla]

+Xailashi moist you're a fucking idiot if you expect everyone on the whole world to have "perfect english".

[@Gundamseeddabest]

TheHelghastkilla saltiness is real nigga

[@yobilllin9939]

Sory for the bad English...

[@braikingboss9137]

For me as a kid, watching these beautiful intros with these masterpieces of songs was truly a gift from the gods, this one, along with soul edge intro are truly truly some of the best in its era, how do I miss the golden age of gaming❤

[@mieletea]

This game has such a beautiful story. Still in love.

[@karatee21]

Nostalgia at it's finest

[@Velacroix]

This game (if you insist on calling it that) made the biggest impact on my childhood. I don't even know how to show appreciation to this work, since Squaresoft is obviously dead.

[@Turion10]

Same here

[@rendypratamaputra7350]

Couldn't agree more..

[@SanguineUltima]

Show appreciation by dusting it off and giving it a replay every so many years; it has some of the best replay value of any JRPG- especially if it's been a long time :)

[@giovanni2910]

I wouldn't say it's necessarily dead, Square merged with Enix thus becoming what they are now since 2003. SquareEnix. So there is still hope for a remake, or possibly a sequel because this game was legendary.

[@shawncarlson2508]

this game entered my life at seemingly a perfect tine

[@bmf0003]

its rather nice to see more positive comments about this game. it got so much undeserved hate. it is such a good game. honestly its better than its predecessor if you take off the nostalgia goggles

[@SeventhheavenDK]

I am one of those who didn't like Trigger and almost skipped Cross because of that, but after I played Cross it instantly became one of my favorite RPGs.

[@MrInuhanyou123]

Man I want to go back to the old days. Ff7, legend of dragoon, ff9, koudoleka, secret of mana, star ocean 2, and this

[@emmanueldom6694]

you will always hear Final Fantasy 7... you will always hear final fantasy 8, as well as final fantasy tactics.... but we will never hear about this masterpiece again. In my opinion, Chrono Cross and Final Fantasy 7 are the greatest rpg games of all time! R.I.P Squaresoft

[@CrzndlSndr]

Those are my two favorites too :P Everything about them; the story, the characters, the music... were just perfect.

[@eartianwerewolf]

*cough* I like Final Fantasy 9 better...lol... Actually most people I know that FF8 is probably onna the worst . I have actually heard about Squall though. Most people tend to think that 6 or 7 is the best, with a lot of people also considering 10 a contender...some people throw in 4 and very few people throw in 9. 8 barely gets on the radar for that....and 5 doesn't ever even get mentioned lol. MOst people ignore the first 2...and as for 13...yeah it doesn't really get considered as the best either.

[@Nabo00o]

#eartianwerewolf I played FF IV, V and VI, they are amazing games! Its just because new kids don't get to try the good old games that they can't see it :( Btw FF IX looked really good, guess i have to try it one of these days (in an emulator).

[@Harpsichord25]

It's out of control how good this game was for a ps1 game

[@jeffbum3721]

This is masterpiece, brings back my teenager memories,..

[@kuribo1]

Just too damned good. Going on a nostalgic ps1 opening spree. FF8, Wild Arms, Thousand Arms, Xenogears etc. Good good memories.

[@RadicalDreamersGaming]

This brings me back to my childhood. A time where things were more simple

[@dfgatorfan]

I was about 14 when I played this game and it stays with me to this day with its haunting and emotional music.

[@temmere]

The first time I popped this game in, my mom, who has no interest in video games, stopped and watched the intro and asked "When did you get this?"

[@Demowan]

People, can we not just love the game ? Instead of fighting to know whether it's better or inferior to Chrono Trigger. Both games are among the best rpg's of all time. Period.

[@blademaster3345]

exactly I agree 100% with you hell I didebt like the game at first but when I got into it I loved it its a great game

[@arthrisis9629]

Thank you!

[@418Billy]

yeahhh your fucking right!!

[@XTORD1]

yet to play this, due to not on psn europe... but damn is this high on a least games i want to play.

[@Elayzee]

Agreed. And also, I liked it better than the first. ;)

[@MetalGearChris1]

this is for me the beginning of fantasy, the introduction to rpg / big story telling games, the beginning of a part in my life when i dreamt of these worlds... this melody, and those few words as introduction, will always be part of my life... ...all of that is this song, that and days and months of playing without having an actual real life xD!

[@stevenormandin2448]

In this intro,they combine the game story with the fate of each humans has to face in their own life.We really dont know why we are here,we cant do nothing about time,we are just wind...But we are here and its not completely for nothing.We certainly cant control the destiny,but we can guide "it" and by the same time,can change people lives for the good and for some cases,for the bad...

[@rueyashirogane2710]

After all these years, this still give me the chills 1:49

[@ZiptoZapto]

Ah yes, Chrono Cross. Still never played it and Chrono Trigger, despite loving both their soundtracks and stories. Well, one of their stories. My sister played through those games while I watched her. I'm old enough now that I could play through them on my own, but I just haven't. Anyways, I remember she played Chrono Cross without me around a lot, so I missed like half the story, never saw how it ended, and was confused the whole time. Though if my sisters word is anything to go by, I didn't miss much, as the story made no sense to her. I do think that this game and Chrono Trigger have got to have the best soundtracks in all of gaming.

[@MartinClifford74656]

All of these years later, Chrono Cross STILL has one of the most beautiful soundtracks going! Such an amazing game - I hope it eventually gets the remake treatment it deserves!!!

[@glenngriffon8032]

the music of this game is legendary. I still remember warm summer days in texas, hanging out the window of my room, the music of Arni Village Home playing on repeat in the background as I just sat there on the windowsill looking across the back yard at the trees and fields behind my house imagining I was on some grand adventure far out there in the world.

[@felixcortes9246]

July 14 2021 12:38pm ive been coming back to this because this beautiful masterpiece gives me the power that i know i don’t have

[@mikebickle823]

So glad I can share this game with my kids with even better graphics now. Such a classic

[@MaveriKat]

17 years later, and this still holds up remarkably well.

[@banka2346]

one of the Best game of all the time

[@kotopzae]

25 years and still rock my heart everytime ...

[@pencil6965]

sometimes we would turn on this game just to watch the intro. over and over and over.... so beautiful

[@toms18]

almost 40 and I'm playing this for the first time, such a beautiful song

[@zackcao9160]

I have never skipped this intro when launching the game on my PS1.

[@diegorojas9737]

Did the same with this OP, Final Fantasy IX's, Kingdom Hearts 2's and Dragon Quest XI's. For me all of them have some luring magic I can't explain.

[@shanemccloud7969]

Kinda restores my faith in humanity reading these comments. I'm glad there are still people out there that love a good story and had similar profound childhood experiences and memories watching this for the first time

[@LunaticMcGee]

Can’t wait for the remaster in April
