Final Fantasy Chronicles: Chrono Trigger
Fans of Chrono Cross on the PlayStation have an opportunity to see where it all started with Chrono Trigger as featured in Final Fantasy Chronicles.
The inclusion of Chrono Trigger in this RPG retro collection from Square may seem awkward (the package is, after all, titled Final Fantasy Chronicles), yet Trigger is nevertheless a perfect companion to Final Fantasy IV. Not only does Trigger share the top elements of the best Fantasy offerings, but its tweaked battle system, nonlinear gameplay scheme, and multiple endings add excellent replay value?although the sights and sounds are stuck in the stone age. Chrono Trigger is still one of the best RPGs ever created, and it did lay the foundation for its excellent PlayStation successor, Chrono Cross. Professional Square lovers will be in retro heaven with this re-issued Trigger, but gamers who picked up on RPGs around the 32-bit era may be understandably disappointed.
