Great Game of the Past
Whenever I first played this game many years ago, I enjoyed every minute of it. Now is not any different. From the great gameplay to the endless hours one can spend playing this game, this game truly shows how the oldschool games never truly get old. This game makes sure that it is almost impossible to level up to insane levels like in other RPG's, thus giving this game enough of a challenge to make players think more often than usual. In addition, this game puts in enough action and adventure to make any RPG fan never want to put down the controller. In conclusion, if you want a great RPG that has great replay value and is guaranteed to give you a challenge, this is the ideal game.
Classic
Chrono Cross is without a doubt one of the classic RPG's of my younger years. A sequil to Crono Trigger in theam only, nearly none of the original characters make an appearance, however, the idea of changing tragic events after they have happened remains current.
The combat system takes a little bit to get used to, as it surely isnt conventnal, however, once you get the hang of it, you find the battles are very diverse and rewarding.
This game has more characters than you can shake a stick at as well, which is fitting as the story is epic in scope. I wont get into the story as i dont want to ruin anything for anyone, however there are many plot twists, large scale events, and deep character development.

Loads of fun, excellent
I got this game and played it because I loved Chrono Trigger so much. While connected to Chrono Trigger, I agree with others that it is better to think of this as its own game in the same universe/world as Chrono Trigger, rather than a sequel.
I thought the battle system was always a lot of fun. You find and buy magic elements which you allocate to players, instead of the usual 'spells'. The nice part is that there is no MP, instead you are just allowed to use each element once during a battle, and they all recharge for your next battle (except a few aptly-named Consumables). The battles are not too difficult, and I liked that. Also, you can automatically heal at the end of battles with the push of a button.
Didn't think I'd like it.
I wasn't sure what to make of this game when I first bought it. I started playing it and it seemed so strange. It had a different system for nearly everything I was used to in an RPG. But I'm glad I stuck with it.
Once you get through the beginning of the game, it quickly becomes a fun, interesting one. The music is memorable, and the (many) characters as well, especially since you often are given choices which effect which characters will join your group, and which you'll have to replay the game to use. This all increases the game's replay value, making each play through different from the one before it. The story is great, and the actual gameplay is incredibly fun.
You should definitely play this game. I still love it, ... Read More
Great Classic
I must admit first off that I'm a bit of a sucker for pretty graphics in a game and can overlook almost anything in order to play them. Just the same, most often older games turn me off because of simple or bad graphics.
This game is not only a beauty to behold, but a great play. It has a mass amount of characters that you can unlock, so you actually have to play through several times to get all of them. It's the only PS game that I actually own, and I'm still having a ball with it.
I would recomend this game to any one that hasn't played it before or anyone that has for a good revisit.
