GameSpot: Chrono Trigger Review

Chrono Trigger is a fantastic synthesis of excellent storytelling, game design, music, and gameplay that has withstood the test of time and should be considered required playing for any fan of role-playing games. Though its extra content is hit or miss and it's essentially a direct port of a game released 13 years ago, the DS version is easily the definitive edition of this masterpiece, regardless of whether Chrono Trigger is one of those games you've only ever heard of before or you're a dedicated fan who has played through it dozens of times.

Chrono Trigger is the god of RPGs!!!

Rick Astley6397d ago

Wrong. That title belongs to Xenogears.

tehReaper6397d ago

Both of you are wrong. It's a matter of opinion.

Socom6396d ago

And anyone who has played at least 15 RPGs knows that Xenogears stands with HEAD AND SHOULDERS above all others.

We arent talking about Xenosaga here. We are talking about Xenogears for the PSX. Its story is so complicated and deep, nothing comes close to it.

To this day, its still the best story I have ever seen in a video game or a movie. It makes LOTR story nerdish, it makes FF6, 7 and 10 seem like stories for babies.

Its an undeniable fact that Xenogears is just too awesome for words.

Nah.Star Ocean 2 was better so was Phantasy Star 2

kevnb6396d ago (Edited 6396d ago )

xenogears is nowhere near as fun to play as ct, plus it had a pretty lame ending. Xenogears was really good, but ct is just that much better.

I guess we can agree to disagree. While Xenogears was a stellar game; Chrono Trigger has more memorial moments and better story.

6+ games need attention...

Off topic: whoever said Fable 2 sucks is on crack...I'm already hooked.

Oh yeah I also like the "pause screen" tune..lol

A remake or even a modern port would do since it is one of the best games all time. Can’t believe it’s been 30 years since I first played it

Azurite211d ago

It's on Steam, don't think they'll have another port unless it's a remake.

Yasunori Mitsuda is a talented composer I love the music both from Chrono Trigger, Xenogears. I will always enjoy Nobuo Uematsu as well. I would love to have seen the Chrono Trigger concert live.

SoloGamer1210d ago

gold_drake210d ago
