Chrono Trigger (DS)[views:11007][posts:96]_________________________________ [Sep 11,2009 8:51am - Martins ""] I agree with you except the only D&D based game I got into was Champions of Norrath. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 11,2009 9:01am - aril ""] Ark play Albion for pc. German made scifi/fantasy rpg from the 90s. I think it's free online now |
| _________________________________ [Sep 11,2009 9:03am - ZenErik ""] Finally finished disc 1 of FFVIII. Already got the Lion Heart. LOLZ. |

I think it's free online now so it is - http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/428/Albion.html this site is awesome, they have old Ultima games, any old PC game you can think of. |

They're probably going to rerelease FFVIII and FFIX on the PSN soon enough. I can't wait so that I can replay. I remember getting onboard Pandora's Box (?) and fighting Biggs and Wedge (pretty sure it was them) and then losing or something and then having to return the game to my friend. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 11,2009 9:50am - aril ""] play FFT or you are a moogle |
| _________________________________ [Sep 11,2009 9:53am - Martins ""] I'm sure that will come out on PSN too or be rereleased on some other system, if it already hasn't. I've been wanting to check it out. There's a shortage of good RPGs out there right now. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 11,2009 9:54am - aril ""] PLAY THE REAL FFT YOU GENERATION Y POSEUR |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 7:06am - ZenErik ""] At the last boss, and now I feel like quitting, haha. It's been ridiculously easy up to this point, and now Lavos' inner shell kills my party with his first attack. This is, of course, because I skipped the Black Omen and every side quest. Guess I'll have to do those sometime. But I have to say, while the music is good, this isn't really a favorite of mine. And it only took about 14 hours to get this far. It might make a decent movie, but there's just about zero character development. I think I might just move on to Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor instead. And I need to get The World Ends With You sometime soon-ish. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 7:33am - Martins ""] Haha so you skipped all the hard parts. Not liking Chrono Trigger = me being a sad panda. Shit ruled. The DS version had some stupid changes in it and some changes for the better. The monster arena and the extra sidequests in New Game+ are dumb but the dialog felt smoother. I also need to get SMT and TWEWY. Also, aril, the rereleased FFT on the PSN is a direct port of the PS1 game, no changes made. Some thing with the rerelease of FFVII a few months back. Wow, talk about abbreviations. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:16am - aril ""] I've got the original fft cd sitting in a box. For some reason I bet you that's better than the port. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:38am - Martins ""] 0's and 1's wise? No way. Nostalgic elitist gamer wise? Probably. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:40am - ZenErik ""] You can have my physical copy of FFT if that makes Aril STFU. Not a favorite of mine anyway. :P |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:42am - Martins ""] Well I have a physical copy of Vagrant Story so he better STFU |
| _______________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:43am - aril ""] Good. I've got that and the original strategy guide for it. Stfu noob |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:46am - the_reverend ""] couldn't get into vagrant story. I keep seeing the disc sitting on my floor like a bunch of personal failures. |

| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:50am - Martins ""] Most 360 games rip off? That doesn't even make sense. Vagrant Story is sick though. I probably made it a 1/4 way through before I had to move back to school last year. I should probably tackle it again. A remake with voice acting and upgraded graphics would be SOOOOO sick. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 22,2009 8:53am - aril ""] It was ahead of it's time. The battle system, although boring and outdated now, and the views and graphics remind me of a lot of 360 games to an extent. Force unleashed, ninja gaiden, etc. It would be an awesome remake |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 9:01am - Martins ""] Ya maybe. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 9:03am - ZenErik ""] Devil Survivor had better be as good as I'm hoping it is. I really wanted to play The World Ends With You first, but I couldn't find it (haven't felt like ordering it from Amazon yet). The one time I found it at CEX in Boston, they couldn't find the cartridge. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 22,2009 9:08am - aril ""] I haven't really played mother yet. You? |
| _________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 9:14am - Martins ""] As in EarthBound? |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 9:43am - arktouros ""] Earthbound and Chrono Trigger were THE games when I was a kid, I played those in my sleep. I was psyched to see the fan translation of Mother 3 captured the spirit of Earthbound perfectly, if you've played Earthbound you need to check it out... I was emulating it on my PSP and the battery shit out, haven't fixed it yet, I was a few hours into it. http://mother3.fobby.net/ |
| _______________________________ [Sep 22,2009 9:49am - aril ""] Definitely want to. Any ever play wild arms or legend of the dragoon for ps1? I liked wild arms but couldn't get into legend of the dragoon |
| __________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 11:21am - Martins ""] I tried playing Earthbound years ago and after playing Chrono Trigger, FF3/6, Secret of Mana, the Lufias, etc... It didn't enthrall me at all. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 22,2009 11:23am - aril ""] earthbound is a very unique game. when it first came out I didn't really like it because it was too "kidsy" for me. it's an acquired taste because of its comical approach; but it gets very good later in the game. a lot of parts of the game tell me some of the makers did too many drugs |

| ____________________________________ [Jun 10,2011 5:20pm - arilliusbm ""] Also, Lufia II for SNES may be one of the greatest games of all time. |

| ____________________________________ [Jun 10,2011 5:31pm - arilliusbm ""] it has puzzles in it. totally hard ones at times too. Unique game |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 3:17am - Sacreligion ""] Never played this before and just beat it. Lavos is a punk ass bitch. Retinite killed me like 5 times before I could finally beat him and it took me all of a half hour to get from the Black Omen to beating the game. Overall I thought it was ok but I am upset with any game that isn't Illusion of Gaia. |
| _________________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 3:28am - bobnomaamrooney ""] Found my PSX memory card (with a MvC sticker from PSNMag), pending purchasing a PSX I'll be playing Chrono Cross, Front Mission 3, Suikoden 1&2 and Star Ocean:The Second Story again. Fuck Legend of Dragoon, official game of falses. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 3:41am - i_am_lazy ""] This thread reminds me that I've never played Vagrant Story. And hate myself for it. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 3:42am - i_am_lazy ""] Oh, and only having the Japanese Chrono Trigger cart is real. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 8:06am - arilliusbm ""] Play it. Get emulator unless you want to spend a fortune. |
| ______________________________ [Sep 26,2011 8:40am - ark ""] Vagrant story is $10 on psn, for ps3 and psp. Chrono |
| ______________________________ [Sep 26,2011 8:42am - ark ""] * Cross is amazing. I am loving it. The parallel universe thing maybe doesn't live up to the time travel from the first game, but there are still branching paths and it does relate to the CT story |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 8:50am - arilliusbm ""] physical psx Vagrant Story copy or gtfo. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 8:52am - arilliusbm ""] I still need to give CC another try. I didn't like it too much. Too many characters, and cheesy ones at that. At least FF6's caracters had substance. |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 9:15am - arktouros ""] I never had a psx, but i do have a modded ps2. i'm slowly getting to all the PSX games i missed, including most of the squaresoft golden era games. I'm looking forward to FFVIII and IX, which I thought looked excellent back in the day. you're right, a lot of the CC characters are cheesy, but there are some dynamic ones. and i STILL haven't gotten past the first couple hours of FF6, 17 years later. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 11:56am - arilliusbm ""] Sounds like we both have some RPG work cut out for us. I can't stress enough how FF6 is perhaps one of the greatest games ever. It probably had the greatest influence on modern JRPGS. FF7 made the franchise explode, but 3 (6) blows it away imo. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 26,2011 12:01pm - arilliusbm ""] FF9 was ok. I had a Vivi shirt and doll back in the day. No gay. |

It probably had the greatest influence on modern JRPGS This. Squaresoft went steadily downhill after '96/ '97, although I found Chrono Cross to be one of their more enjoyable RPGs during the PS1 era. Haven't played it in ages, though. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 27,2011 4:25pm - reimroc ""] been replaying since my last save on my last play through which was well over a year ago. just beat golem. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 27,2011 4:32pm - Randy_Marsh ""] How were the FF remakes for DS? I sort of want to get a DS again and play those games. |
