Not trying to be rude and totally agreeing with the original poster when I say this but, way to state the obvious.
Heh, that aside, yeah, not much more I can say that other people haven't. Pretty much Chrono Trigger is well known for being one of the all-time classics in both gameplay and storyline. One of the most truly balanced and fun RPGs ever made. I am a little biased however and credit Yuji Horii and much of the imput from the 'Dragon Quest' team for that balance and creative design. As if you play more than a few Dragon Quest games, you'll start to see many similarities in gameplay and game design between Chrono Trigger and Dragon Quest games (and not just the Character Design).
