Trigger vs. Cross

Chrono Trigger - 7 characters, Good charachterization, plenty of subquests, more techs/combos than you can shake a stick at, cool time travel bit, and good story

Chrono Cross: A ****load of characters, poor characharization, some subquests, not enough techs/combos, cool alternate universe bit, and cool if incomprehensible story.

I voted for Chrono Trigger.

Deary me. That was my brother just now. He has never played Chrono Trigger, and so does not know it's full glory. Forgive his ignorance.

By the way, ClessAlvein? How come I was censored? This is a violation of my free speech, and besides, this is a very liberal website. Could you uncensor it?

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

I've never played chrono trigger, only chrono cross. can anyone explain the differences to me?

it seems like a cool game, but I have yet to play it. My bro back in my hometown bought the FF2/trigger playstation game (i think there's one out like it) so i'll play it come summer time, but I just want to know what i missed since I haven't played trigger yet.

thanks

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

Chrono Trigger is an incredable and possibly one of the best games I have played. I have never played cross so I cannot say a thing about it.

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

Both chrono trigger and chrono cross are great games, but i would have to vote for chrono trigger. It had alot better characters (althought Serge was pretty sweet) and alot better side quests. My only problem with crono cross is that you had to play the game a couple of times to get all the characters, way to much effort just to get all your party members.

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

For those of you who say that either of these games suck: YOU ARE A F***ING MORON. I personally think that Chrono Trigger is better than Chrono Cross, but not by much. First of all, whoever said that CC had too little techs and combos probably never even found half of them. There are at least the same amount of combos and techs in CC as there are in CT. Remember, there are like 40 characters, and each character has at least one combo with another character, and has 3 techs. That's 120 techs, and there must be at least 20 or 25 combos. And you must admit it, CC has more replay value than CT. I just wish that CC's storyline was more closely related to CT's and a bit less ambiguous. So, CC just falls short of tying CT in my opinion.

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

Granted, there are a lot of techs by themselves, but would Chrono Trigger have been fun with only techs? No, of course not. The real fun is in finding the huge numbers of Double and Triple Techs. In Cross, there are 2 Triple techs, and about 6 Double techs. Hardly one for each character. Nonetheless, I agree that they are both very good games, even if I needed a guide to understand Cross's plot :P

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

I'd comment here, but that would only cloud the issue. I've only played Trigger, and the script for Cross I've seen was incomplete.

RE: RE: Trigger vs. Cross

ok guys, thanks for the feedback.

The only thing that's unclear to me is how the gameplay is in chrono trigger. If someone could compare it to a FF game it would be helpful.

Oh and could someone back me up on CT being out for playstation? I think my bro said he bought it on playstation and it comes with FF2 (FF4J) but I'm not sure.

Thanks again guys, I hope CT is even better than CC because I thought CC was a REALLY good game.

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

CT's gameplay really cannot be compared to any FF game. The battles take place on the same screen that exploring takes place on, they are most similar to Breath of Fire 3's battles. In CT, enemies are encountered the same way as in CC (monsters are walking around on their own in the area) but battles don't take place in a separate screen as they do in CC and FF games. That was one thing I was disappointed with in CC. Commands in battles are given in practically the same way as in FF games, and there is a time gauge that fills up before characters can attack. The attack command is pretty different from CC's, there's no light, medium, and hard attacks like in CC, just attack like in FF games. One of my favorite parts of CT and CC is that both games have battleless overworlds. CT had (if I remember right) 6 different time periods to explore, which made it really cool. CT's an awesome game, you should definitely play through it.

P.S. It is available on the PSX. It is bundled with FF4 (2) in a game called Final Fantasy Chronicles. If you haven't played either FF4 or CT, I suggest buying it.

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

I think theey're both great games. CT had a good plot and awesome game play, and how CC's relationship with CT was introduced was awesome. I watched for links the whole game. Plus CC had so many chars. I hated CC battle system, plus bosses were lacking difficulty. I voted for CT.

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

Thanks for the info. I actually called my bro today and he told me that he has the playstation FF2/CT game!

I know how I'll be spending my summer...

(that's cool how there's no weak, medium, and strong attack. I just used strong every time.)

RE: Trigger vs. Cross

All right, as I said, I have never played CC but from what I hear it is nothing compared to CT. I mean weak medium and strong attacks? That makes the game way too easy. But I still want to play CC.
