I hope by bringing Chrono Trigger back people will finally realize what an overrated piece of shit the game is.

For something so "amazing", a good view of this is taking longer than I thought.

But I don't really know how these scans work though, so...

It's a partial scan. on the corner you can make out what looks like the timer porters in when you first see them being demonstrated by Lucca in Lene's Square.

It appears to be sprite art. if it's 3D it might be DQ style.

Hopefully they remake it, and give the characters a bit more personality...I'm sorry I didn't play this when it first came out and only played it recently...it didn't age too well in terms of characters, and I don't like the battle system too much - but alas rose tinted glasses.

I don't want them to pointlessly add in new endings, although it'd be nice to be able to aim for one or two more alternative endings (with a new bonus dungeon) - that right there is worth a mini-game.

I mean like some of those scenes in Chrono Trigger that added to the characterization of some of the heroes, only more and more. It wouldn't necessarily have to lead to an extra ending, just interesting angles on the Crono, Lucca, Robo, etc. I can even forsee interesting little sidequest where you can unlock little time portals as bonuses for completing some errand.

Maybe they could extend the ending to make it fit better with Chrono Cross?

I'm just as excited for this news as I am for Firmware 2.4! Now I won't be able to fall asleep because of all the excitement!

I think I'll go paint a fence to contain my excitement!

Its not a port, according to more informed posters

no they said enhanced port, pretty clearly

That's an idea. Make a sidequest to tie some plot lines up. Not a bad idea.

Maybe I would have realized it somewhere down the line playing it 10+ times, if it were truly crap.

It has become almost an annual tradition for me to play through Chrono Trigger.

So we've got multiple people saying this is true, right? I'm not going to come back in a few hours to find all my hopes crushed?

You know, I own two versions of this game, and I've never, for the life of me, been able to figure out why SE refused to let me purchase it a third and even fourth time.

I really hope it's not 3D :(

fuck a chrono trigger. what's metal slug r? not a 3d game, hopefully? i was desperately hoping that the next metal slug would get the kofxii treatment, but a 2d wii game with optional waggle would be...better than a ds game in any case

It looks very legit.

a)Why would you even bother posting this in this thread? This should be bannable under the thread-crapping rules.

b)In the history of wrongness, you've set a new record for being the most wrong about anything that anyone has ever been wrong about.

Hm... I might just pick this up.

Chrono Cross for the PSP, plz.

EDIT: How interesting. As I was reading this thread my "Enter The Frog" OC Remix started playing. :lol

You're entitled to your opinion.
As shitty an opinion as it may be.

looks like a port to me based on the partial image of a bad scan. but like i said, it could still be in 3-D mimmicking 16-bit sprite art, ala the DQ remakes.

I didn't play Chrono Trigger back when it first came out, I only first played it a few years ago. And I must say, it's held up wonderfully. The characters had good development given the length of the game, and they were charming and likeable.

As for the battle system, CT still has one of my favourite RPG battle systems to date. From the way battles are triggered to the way enemies actually move about on the battle screen, CT's battles feel more dynamic and alive than most turn-based systems.

If we're lucky, they'll add in some new post-game content to better tie up the Magus/Schala plotline (since they won't give us a real sequel) and hopefully retcon that Chrono Cross bullshittery right out of the Chronology, so to speak.

Edit - Yeah, who am I kidding.

Here here. Cross shouldnt have even had the Chrono name. Should have been seperate games

Ok. so let's say this game is real. How much of the original localization do you like to see kept?

As far as I've heard, they're keeping Woolsey's original script, with some of the errors corrected.
