  • Just beat Chrono Trigger!  Only took 22hours (1.5 of which was the last battle alone)

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>I would like to say it's the best RPG I've ever played.. it holds a contest with Final Fantasy VII which I need to go back and play again; never did play it long enough to beat it.
If anyone here Hasn't played Chrono Trigger, DOWNLOAD the Rom! Hell, msg / email me and I'll Send you the rom and emulator.

So damn rewarding to beat in the end.. now I can go back and play it again with my current stats. 4 Separate endings,, I dunno how that's possible :)

Btw-- If anyone knows how I can get my hands on a PSX Rom/ISO.. more specifically, Chrono Cross, PLEASE let me know! My original intent was to play it, but was told that I needed to play the original first.. and they were right. Worth the price of admission :P</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Though most of them are just kind of for fun stuff... but the Magus versus Frog duel rules.

As for CC, I don't really think it's necessary to play CT before playing it since the ties into CT from CC is pretty weak at best. That said, it's still a decent game if you just take out the middle half of the game... or take out the beginning and the end. It's almost as if it's two games in one, one is the original Radical Dreamers which is just the adventure of Serge and Kid, and the other one is your generic save the world stuff, and it's divided in a really weird way.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Alright, I won't argue with that (although nowadays, I believe eBay insures your purchases... against the rare cases of fraud). Funcoland stores always have it, too, but they charge like 60 bucks minimum (blah).</div>
