This game has so many fond memories behind it for me. I'm still trying to get ONE FRIGGEN CHARACTER in it though, lol.

It's beautiful, it's brilliant, Chrono Cross was a sheer delight for me. However it may have helped that this was the first in the series I played. It was also my second RPG ever. And I'll admit, after playing Final Fantasy 10, the battle system in this game almost made me want to trade it in right away. Boy am I glad I didn't!

This review reminded me of a good time long ago! Well done!

Everything... yes also fighting the final boss 13 (or was it 14) times to see ALL possible endings!!

As is stated in this retrospect, i really hate how fans will just dislike "part 2" because it isnt "part 1"
I mean what sense does it make, if you hate 2 for not being then just go play 1 again....
Also, i loved this game because of the adorable soundtrack and actually because it diverts form Chrono Trigger in a number of ways, atleast this game was not, like so many other sequels, just a rip off copy to keep making money off of a franchise.

Cheers

I thought the game was a mixed package. I thought it had a fairly decent story and setting, but filled paper-thin characters. However I thought it was one of the best looking RPG of all time with a soundtrack second to none. I consider Yasunori Mitsuda one of the greatest game music composers and if you liked his work in CC, I recommend playing Xenogears and the Xenosaga series.

I have to agree. Crono Cross was one of THE BEST RPG's ever made. Great story, soundtrack, the environments were visually stunning, enemies by the handfull and fun to fight, and once you start, you wanna see it to the end. I had such a great time playing this game that I ended up HUNTING it down. It was hard but I ended up finding it again. I have the soundtrack and love it to death. I hate that people don't like it cuz it's not like Trigger. Well, sometimes sequels are not suppose to be as good as the first...least w/videogames. Although I do like the subtle links/references to the past game. For instance, Kid was in Lucca's orphanage and tries to get revenge for her, you get to see the Epoch in the bottom of the castle, you find out about Lavos and what he was capable of, AND let's not forget you actually SEE Crono, Lucca and Marlie as children. I wasn't a fan of Trigger. I never even heard of it till I played this game (played C.C. before C.T.) But thanks to this game, I found the wonder that is Trigger. I loved the characters cuz there were so many and they all had a story to them...well...most.

Long story short, this game is worth it. If you can, go out and try it. If you don't like it cuz it's not Trigger, then you have issues.

My friend gave me this as a rom to test my EPSXE, and I am completely confused. The leveling up is weird, and I have no idea where to go. I'm stuck in MC Eschier's Crazy Stairs.

I guess I'm just not ready for RPG's. I'm having fun with basic ones like Paper Mario.
