They never should have called it Chrono Cross. They should have called it Radical Cross and not pissed off all the fans of Chrono Trigger.

everything about SE inserting fake connections to CC from CT was pure promotion... saying it takes place 20 years after CT? yea right... that fake ending in the PS1 port? pllllz... CC is a sequel to a spin off not CT... the developers said they would make a true sequel if timed allowed them

Sorry, I'm not going to read anything that says 'Chrono Cross is the worst game in history'. Its clearly written in anger and completely untrue.

True, the game was unfinished and was very different from Chrono Trigger. But the game was still really good by itself. Hating Chrono Cross for it 'flaws' or 'being different' is like hating Smash Bros Brawl or Final Fantasy VIII. In the end, you are just angry because the game didn't live up to your expectations and the game was still fantastic in its own right.

As an aside, I still think Chrono Cross is one of the five best games on the PSX.  And is right up there with one of the best RPGs on the PSX along with Suikdoen II and Final Fantasy VIII.  Now, if they just remade the game, possibly for PS3 with a completed story and updated graphics, it would be deemed one of the best games ever.  People just deem it 'terrible' because it didn't meet their expectations.


oh yea dont get me wrong i love CC...uust not Square tried to pass this off as a sequel to CT when it really isnt.. which everybodies CC hate stems from

It's been so long, but I still remember I loved the intro music of it!

The Dead Sea is the best dungeon ever in a game and it's cool.



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.

How many games have you played? 3? There are plenty of bad Atari, NES and SNES games out there!! Chrono Cross is no masterpiece but it is one of Squares last great games!! If you had never played Chrono Trigger and went right into Chrono Cross you would have probably liked the game, but the fact that Chrono Trigger is one of the best games ever hurts it!!

No, it is THE WORST GAME EVER CREATED IN ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY in my opinion. Worst storytelling in a video game ever created.

 

If you're not gonna bother to read why I think so then you have no right to say you have an opinion on this matter or say anything good about Chrono Cross because by ignoring my reasons you ignore my opinion, so I'll give you the same disrespect.

In all seriousness, I beat Chrono Cross and I STILL have no idea what happened. I don't remember the story/characters at all.

I don't know, claiming Chrono Cross is worse than E.T is a bit unfair imo

Of course there will be plot holes, they change time, visit another dimension, meet themselves in the other dimension. Something's bound to happen! I mean, if you all of a sudden run into yourself on the street, you know there's a hole somewhere.

BTW, I love Chrono Cross!
