Chrono Cross for PlayStation 1

Pros: Beautiful graphics, 40+ playable characters, loads of replay value, and an engrossing story are just a few of the factors that make this game great
Cons: some of the boss battles are a little too easy

Back in 1995, as the Super Nintendo was nearing the end of its reign as the most dominant home console system on the market, RPG giants Squaresoft released a game that would become a certifiable classic--Chrono Trigger, a title that many...

Pros: Wonderful sound, challenging, takes alot of thought
Cons: You may need a translator for parts of the game

(Note: A copy of this game was provided to me by Squaresoft.)

Every so often, a game comes out that totally surprises you with its play. The last time this happened to me, I played Chrono Trigger, a classic role-playing game for the Super...

Pros: awesome plot, graphics, music, FMVs
Cons: battle system's a bit weird, no levels up

To be honest, I saw the strange looking characters in the previews and didn't think this could live up to the original. Still, I went with the good reviews (mostly 4.5/5 at gamepro, etc.) and bought the game the day it came out.

So after...

Pros: best music, fun gameplay/plot, great leveling system
Cons: 5 types of armor??, lack of subquests

Now that I've had this game for a couple of weeks since its US release, I can write a more complete review on it. In my pre-release opinion, I basically discussed graphics and music. In this review I will focus on gameplay but first lets get the basics...

Pros: Takes a Long Time to Beat, Good Graphics, It's the Sequel to Chrono Trigger!!!
Cons: Too Many Characters, Plot Lags Sometimes...

Over this last year SquareSoft has released a LOT of games, and it is starting to show just how much time Squaresoft is spending on their games. For one thing few characters have I would consider a story, and with 40+ characters in the game I would...

Pros: yo
Cons: what

INTRO:
Well my original intentions as I strolled into the Family Video doors were to rent a few movies, pay my dad’s late fine(out of MY hard earned cash), and get some Taco Bell, and then drive home. Well of course my original...

Pros: Great graphics and sound. Why kill the game with the 1 con it has?
Cons: A ton of meaningless characters.

One day I was in the mood to play a good Squaresoft RPG. (Squaresoft is the company responsible for most of the best RPG’s of all time) Recently I had posted a review on the Final Fantasy movie, (made by Squaresoft) which I thought was incredibly...

Pros: Great CG cinemas, awesome character designs and music, top-notch story
Cons: Those annoying accents, the fighting system takes some getting used to, too many characters

Pros: Awesome graphics & CG cut scenes. Opening tune.
Cons: Doesn't live up to Chrono Trigger.

Truly great RPGs are the ones that are able to stand the test of time while separating themselves from the majority of other soon to be forgotten lesser offerings. Examples include such memorable classics as Final Fantasy 2, 3 & not forgetting of course,...

Pros: Play value, Graphics, Story Line, over all a great game
Cons: ??? You man have no social life after getting this game LOL

One of the most amazing RPG games to come along in years. Sony's Playstation Chrono Cross has proven to be an intiesing, time consuming game. With over 50 hours of play time for one game and 44 playable characters, you will always find something...

Pros: Incredible Graphics, The Best Soundtrack Of Any Game I've Ever Played
Cons: Will Never Live Up To Chrono Trigger, Story Drones On Somewhat, Short Game

A long time ago, in a teen's bedroom not too far away, a kid was playing Chrono Trigger. A game that marveled him with it's innocent yet tragic storyline and memorable characters. This kid has beaten Chrono Trigger many times, getting all...

Pros: Stunning Graphics, A Fun Battle System
Cons: Plodding Story, Under-Developed Characters

Just mention the words “Chrono Trigger” if front of your average gaming geek, and you will see his face light up with a goofy smile. Years after the massive RPG hit on the Super Nintendo, it still has that effect on the general gaming...

Pros: Gorgeous graphics and sound; occasional references to Chrono Trigger; impressive battle system
Cons: Still no voiceovers; kiss your social life goodbye!

After almost five years of waiting, the sequel to Chrono Trigger, the popular Super Nintendo RPG, has finally arrived here in the US, and in a word, it is amazing. With slick full-motion video, beautiful graphics and sound, fun combat, and more than a...

Pros: Battles are pretty fun, graphics are superb, high fun factor.
Cons: Oi! Bugger this blasted Auto Accent Generator! Kick that sorry programmer's ars*!

If you've read my Chocobo Racing review, you already know the basic problem I have with Squaresoft. In case you haven't, their problem right now is they're trying to go off in too many directions, and the quality isn't following.

They tried...

Pros: Beautifully composed music and visually stunning graphics.
Cons: Only two dimensions, and the game seems short.

Shall I start, perhaps, by mentioning that this is the long-awaited sequel to a great SNES Roleplay-adventure, or has that already been overstated? Simply put, this is a good game. Perhaps not the best game ever made, but it has passed the trials and has...
