Chrono Trigger is one of the greatest RPGs EVER! It's easily in my top 10 favorite games ever!

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

The thing that stood out most to me was the artwork. Akira Toriyama's art style is pretty damn wonderful. Dragon Ball was one of the series that defined my childhood.

[D4C]

I lovelovelove Chrono Cross. Hatersgonnahate etc.

The DS version of Trigger has a new ending that shows something relevant.

[Mozy]

PROVE IT! What's the new ending?!?

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

Well hold on, not until I get a chance to play the game!

[Jims]

So I picked up Chrono Trigger for the DS yesterday. I've still never played it but of course I was aware of its reputation. I realized the 5 games I own for the DS are all RPGs...

Nice. Chrono Trigger is so good. I haven't played the DS remake (tracked down the SNES cart for $40 a couple years back), but I hear it's a really good port. In particular, I heard the music sounds just like the SNES version.

[D4C]

It does. I just feel bad for people stuck playing the playstation version

[Mozy]

SUPER NINTENDO OR BUST!



Crono, Frog, and Robo was my favorite combination!

Magus had some pretty bad ass attacks too!

[D4C]

I learned to value Crono Robo and Ayla

[Mozy]

I can't remember what their triple techs were but I do remember that they had some wicked attacks together! Wasn't it "Twister" or something like that?

[D4C]

I actually like the particular set of dualtechs you get with that team

[Jims]

I've only played through the game once (been meaning to replay it again), but I stuck with a Crono/Marle/Robo team. Crono/Marle and Marle/Robo learn an awesome ice double-tech early on, which made the Reptite section a joke. Marle and is mostly used as the white mage (and Haste spammer), though. Robo is a good kind of all-arounder, able to dish out damage and do supplemental healing when Marle's busy.

I have a bad tendency in RPGs to just stick with what I'm given early on. Next time, I'll probably give the other 3 characters a go.

[Mozy]

Speaking of dualteachs, although not quite that impressive or exciting, Crono and Frog's "X-Slash" was pretty awesome!

Would anyone else agree that Frog's song is one of the greatest songs in RPG history?

For those of you that haven't heard it, check it out:

[Jims]

Eh, Frog's theme never did that much for me. If I had to pick a character theme, I'd go with Lucca's.



There's a good rock remix of the song too.



I love Robo's theme as well, mostly because of the Rick Astley thing. Probably my favorite track in the game is "Yearnings of the Wind", the 600 AD overworld music, though.

[kupomog]

Its good but I dunno about greatest in RPG history. There's a lot of RPGs out there with great OSTs.

[Mozy]

There's obviously better ones but I think it's ONE of the best in RPG history, just sayin'.

[King-Size Homer]

Anybody like the Resident Evil video games?

[kupomog]

yeah of course. Cant wait to co-op RE6 with @D4C and whoever else.

[hammster]

I was mega in to Revelations. Not really that familiar with the rest of the series. Started 4 but never finished it (audible gasp etc). Just didn't click with it for whatever reason. Will definitely give it another shot.

[King-Size Homer]

RE4 is actually my favorite video game of all time.

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

I played the first 2 in my youth and couldn't get past the first screen of the second...kinda soured me on the series ever since...but then I'm terrible at almost any shooters so...

[Mozy]

Did anyone like the Mega Man series?

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

Yeah, I own the 2 collections released for Gamecube and 9 on the Wii Virtual Console, but I've only ever actually beaten the first 2 and X-1. The games are really brutally tough at times, but great fun.

[Mozy]

I get frustrated at times too with those games but man, X was amazing!

[Rara]

SUPER NINTENDO OR BUST!

My favorite battle of that game..walking up to Magus with all the flames lighting up. Damn, that game is CLASSIC! I liked Chrono Cross as well but not as much as Chrono Trigger. My favorite RPG? Final Fantasy VI.

[Rara]

Yeah, I own the 2 collections released for Gamecube and 9 on the Wii Virtual Console, but I've only ever actually beaten the first 2 and X-1. The games are really brutally tough at times, but great fun.

I bought the Megaman X classics game...I beat MMX, MMX2, MMX3, MMX4, MMX6.

[Rara]

RE4 is actually my favorite video game of all time.

Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City...I recommend it to all Resident Evil fans! Vector has became my favorite Resident Evil character...even though he is part of Umbrella.

[Rara]

Eh, Frog's theme never did that much for me. If I had to pick a character theme, I'd go with Lucca's.

Are you kidding me? Frog's theme was the best song in that game!

[Steve]

yeah of course. Cant wait to co-op RE6 with @D4C and whoever else.

Did anyone like the Mega Man series?

Fuck yes, bro. Aside from Zelda it was my favorite series growing up.

The ultimate question: 2 vs. 3? I personally prefer 3 but only by a gnat's wing's margin.

Amen to that, brother!
