When this game first came out i bought it.I was very into the game.Back then thats when there was just a ps1.But i never finished the game.My original game was all scratched up so i bought a new one.Now having just a ps2.I got the game but my ps2 seems not to read the disc.I dont know why.Does it only work for people who still have their ps1?I thought ps2's were suppose to read ps1 games as well?The thing is also.My brother bought the game too and it still didnt read it in my ps2.So any help would be appreciated,cause i want to play this again!Thanks!

A Fair Game with Major Shortcomings

Ah, Chrono Cross... for Chrono Trigger fans such as myself, it was the most anticipated game in late 2000. Unfortunately, those looking for a sequel to CT will be disappointed to find a game in the same world with common themes, as opposed to a true sequel. Technically, the game pushes the PSX to its absolute limits, and Mitsuda's music is incredible (of course). I would recommend this game, but don't expect Chrono Trigger II.

a lackluster sequel

this game really IS an OK game... but only OK. Square could have put a little more effort into this one, but they didn't. and it ended up being not so great. it pales in comparison to its predecessor, despite the more advanced technology used to make it. the soundtrack, however, is top-notch. grab a copy of it if you can.

A CT Player's Expectations

I've played Chrono Trigger and finished every one of its endings. There were a great many playable characters, each with their own unique magical abilities, traits, and attitudes. Chrono Trigger, the prequel to the up-and-coming Chrono Cross, was an amazingly fun game with countless endings and forks in the plot. Chrono Cross is only supposed to improve on CT from what I've read and heard about, so keep your eyes peeled for this gem!

English version isn't as good...

I played through this game in Japanese, and when i tried to play it in english, I was horrified at how much it had been "dumbed down" for the American public. The Japanese version did away with a lot of the cliche RPG townspeople (even through there still was a guy standing at the entrance to tell you what town it was in some towns =] ) who blatantly and outrightly tell you what the next piece of the storyline is, so it felt a little bit like a detective scenario, and solving a puzzle made you all warm inside. The english version, however, is really laid out for the player, and there is very little in the way of difficulty (except perhaps finding hidden items) in this game. I do admit there are a few neat puzzles which the translators couldn't ruin (like catching the tokage early on). I would tolerate it if the battle system made things tough on the player.. but it doesn't. So pretty much, the english version of Chrono Cross is a graphic novel where you follow the directions to turn the page. If many hours of mind-numbing simon says to see cutscenes is what you want, get Chrono Cross in english. If you want a game, get the japanese version.

Can you say boring?

This game had decent graphics and sound. It had an okay battle system. So it would be a decent game if it actually had a PLOT. What story there was in this game was incredibly hard to follow partially due to the fact that there were about a zillion playable charcters none of whom had personalities. This is one of the most boring RPG's that I have ever played!

More like Chrono Crap!

Please promise me you will never play this. It is not worth your time. If you paid money for it, try to find the person you gave that money to and kick them in the shin. Hard. Then throw your copy of this game in the dumpster.

Seriously though, this game is absolutely terrible. The graphics are bad even for the PSX, the combat quickly becomes boring as all hell, the story line was confused and the fact that there was a second dimension pointless. There was no reason for there being 40 something characters, most of them were exactly the same statwise, and all of them were poorly designed. The most annoying thing in the world, bar nothing, is having to re-equip all your character's spells whenever you switch characters. You have like 50 spell slots. God. I don't think I even need to say it, but those crumbums at Square couldn't pull another hit out of their oversized victorian tophats if they wanted too. They should really stick with straight to video Final Fantasy 7 anime movies from now on, lest they risk making something like this again.

Well.....

Well heres my opinion on this game, i personally didnt think it was all that great. NO exp NO leveling up NO Magic Points (MP) WORSE story than the origanal. Sorry im getting ahead of myself. this is what happened i went to the video store and saw that they had chrono cross in i was so excited! i thought this game would be better than the origanal Chrono Trigger was but i was highly dissapointed. the story is EXTREAMLY slow and dull. and im not a novice RPG player so i know a bad story when i see one and THIS was a bbbbbaaaaaadddddd story. I really dont see why they had to dump Chrono and all the other charactors for the new 40+ Charactors! why the heck do we need 40 characters when you can only use 3 at a time? anyway thats my opinion. if you really wanna see how much this game stinks buy chrono Trigger or one of the classic Final Fantasys that game is the best RPG ever made!

This in my opinion is the best game that Square Soft has made to date and possibly one of the best games to have ever been made. The game play is incredible graphics are incredible and the story is awesome. Another thing the more times that you play the more different endings you can get. Let me break it down in terms of overall gameplay.

Grqaphics 10/10
Replay value 10/10
Sound 10/10
Gameplay 10/10

Bottom line this is one hell of a game I think it is proably better than any game to date. Buy it.

one of the best games ive ever played for any system

I've had this game since the day it came out and some of the cutscenes my opinion are better than a lot of games out today. This games unique gameplay i think adds to its satisfactory. I love everything about this game for example:

music: this games music is unreal compared to practically every other ps1 game out there. IF you take the time to listen to it and your not one of those gamers like i used to be before i actually listened to any games music, than u will not be disappointed.

gameplay: I absolutely love this games gameplay because of its unique style. Even though u cant really tell how much you have leveled up, you can still get the idea from when it gives u a new star so you can learn new moves and more slots for more space new put more skills.

Charater and attack system: there are 40 characters in this game which I think all promote to there own indivituality from the others. Some of them may have the same same type and sometimes the same basic idea of a move, But each character is uniqely different looking than the others, a lot of them use different weapons, and armor. But the one I like most of all is the way that your special moves for each character get cooler looking and much stronger as you gain stars or levels. Some people say that getting so much more powerful attacks every level contributes to make this games battle system to easy. I dont think that at all because types of people had advantages over others so u have to know that. But even if you do, the enemies can heal more than you, and some enemies you have to run from because their so hard. So i dont think its that simple.

Challenge level: I think overall this game is very challenging because of the battle system and because there is a countless # of puzzles to figure out in the game that definetly add to the games difficulty. I also think the games length adds to its challenge meter, because there are so many different paths you can take in the game to change the story line, so you can get different characters. So if you dont get some the first time you play, you can start another game with the same data and everything as the game before. So I think that this game is a game that you can't beat so easily in one day. I would recommend this game to anyone whos looking for a inexpensive rpg thats lengthy unique battle style and amazing everything else makes this ps1 game one of the best games ever created to date..
