Editorial Review: Product Description: Featuring a story line developed by the creator of 'Chrono Trigger' and 'Xenogears' Chrono Cross has been christened the 'Best RPG Creation' by its development team.Format: PSX Genre: RPG (VG)/ Rating: T - Teen UPC: 662248900087 Manufacturer No: 9780 Editorial Review: Chrono Cross, the sequel to the Super Nintendo classic Chrono Trigger, turns out to be well worth the wait. Taking off 20 years after the first game, Chrono Cross follows a boy named Serge across parallel worlds--both the world in which he lives and one in which he drowned 10 years earlier. Chrono Cross will wow players with beautiful prerendered graphics and a unique battle system. Elements replace magic and items in battle, and using the same element three times in a row will ultimately increase your power. In addition to using elements, the accuracy of physical attacks is determined by probability, with easier-to-land weak attacks setting up fierce blows. The plot, while a bit slow to develop, is full of interesting characters. Players will need to travel between the two worlds to advance the plot. While many of these areas will initially appear to look similar, you'll find them to be quite different upon closer examination of the details. For instance, a plant that is extinct in one world thrives in the other. My only qualm with Chrono Cross is that, despite the complexities of the battle system, veterans will have an easy time with early battles. Still, there's much to like about this SquareSoft epic. --Robb Guido Pros:

 Rating:  - Great Game of the PastWhenever I first played this game many years ago, I enjoyed every minute of it. Now is not any different. From the great gameplay to the endless hours one can spend playing this game, this game truly shows how the oldschool games never truly get old. This game makes sure that it is almost impossible to level up to insane levels like in other RPG's, thus giving this game enough of a challenge to make players think more often than usual. In addition, this game puts in enough action and adventure to ... Read More Rating:  - ClassicChrono Cross is without a doubt one of the classic RPG's of my younger years. A sequil to Crono Trigger in theam only, nearly none of the original characters make an appearance, however, the idea of changing tragic events after they have happened remains current. The combat system takes a little bit to get used to, as it surely isnt conventnal, however, once you get the hang of it, you find the battles are very diverse and rewarding. This game has more characters than you can shake a ... Read More Rating: - Loads of fun, excellentI got this game and played it because I loved Chrono Trigger so much. While connected to Chrono Trigger, I agree with others that it is better to think of this as its own game in the same universe/world as Chrono Trigger, rather than a sequel. I thought the battle system was always a lot of fun. You find and buy magic elements which you allocate to players, instead of the usual 'spells'. The nice part is that there is no MP, instead you are just allowed to use each element once during ... Read More Rating: - Didn't think I'd like it.I wasn't sure what to make of this game when I first bought it. I started playing it and it seemed so strange. It had a different system for nearly everything I was used to in an RPG. But I'm glad I stuck with it. Once you get through the beginning of the game, it quickly becomes a fun, interesting one. The music is memorable, and the (many) characters as well, especially since you often are given choices which effect which characters will join your group, and which you'll have to replay the ... Read More Rating: - Great ClassicI must admit first off that I'm a bit of a sucker for pretty graphics in a game and can overlook almost anything in order to play them. Just the same, most often older games turn me off because of simple or bad graphics. This game is not only a beauty to behold, but a great play. It has a mass amount of characters that you can unlock, so you actually have to play through several times to get all of them. It's the only PS game that I actually own, and I'm still having a ball with it. ... Read More |
