No game will ever be the greatest ever because in order for that to happen, everyone who has played it would have to say so. As much as I love Chrono Trigger, it's just an RPG. Not the greatest nor the worst. That goes for any genre. I dislike "greatest ever" discussions. But I'm all for opinions. As an Opinion, I it's up there with the best but for me that title will always go to Dragon Quest VIII.
