Chrono Cross is like a giant unexplored ocean. It is so deep, mysterious, and obscure that no matter how much time passes, you never feel like you’ve really explored the whole game.
It sounds exaggerated, but you captured how it feels to me also.
Shut up
@@bw9499 Take your own advice, clown boy.
It took more then 11 playthroughts for me to feel like iv seen everything.
It's like, all 40 characters have back story but you have to play with them in the party to get those pieces of lore. I'm here in 2022 playing on My my phone ready for the remake. I would live on an island with only people that love chronk cross 🤣
one of the most beautiful games I ve ever played, reminds me the time in my childhood when I discovered that games can be art too
I literally said this exact sentence to myself and then saw your comment. Wow - how one game can inspire and aspire so many lives.
@@Rtsrurg2 I adore Chrono cross best game ever
I hope this game gets an HD remaster or something.
Kuraudo should be a chrono collection for the switch.
Ooo, that would be lovely.
Until then, it plays well enough on the Vita
noooo !! don't want F... remaster , same ff7 , square destroy all they touch !
@@pochul Yup, I just want a port really or simply a graphics upgrade. I don't want a retelling/re-imagining.
This thing pushed the PS1 to the limits. Love the soundtrack too.
This game is seriously art, it's hard to explain but there were moments playing it where I said to myself 'this is art.' Fighting Miguel with that sunset over Nadia's bell (as the sun sets on that possible future and the dead sea if you will), Nikki's song, etc. there's so much magical stuff.
With that dario theme in the bg??? Man that was good
Miguel having waited a literal eternity to kill you does it for me every time.
I love how many different routes and small events can happen depending on who is in the party and the choices along the way. I was blown away when i played the second time and entered the manor in a fight through the front gate, instead of sneaking through the forest. It's really hammering the concept of parallel dimensions and how choices affect one destiny, all through gameplay.
The game itself was so mature, sad in some ways even, how lives were different in the dimensions ! If one plays through it when young it deffinitely makes an impact
There's still another route here where you climb on to the cliff
@@jhn9251 oh, i guess i have to play it again lol
Happy 20th anniversary, Chrono Cross.
Wow I'm old
The amount of Harle in this video made me smile. Wow, I never thought about her and Lynx never actually interacting. That's really interesting
(spoilers ahead) That's very interesting since lynx serves FATE, and Harle was made by the dragons which are the enemies of FATE. Maybe when they created her they somehow made it so that FATE can't perceive her existence?
@@gabrielwag Harle does aknowledges Linx if I'm not wrong, she serves him. So it doesn't sound too right, but was Harle created by the dragons ? I didn't remember that
@@gabrielwag i fotgot about the true story but if im not wrong remember that harle was the last dragon (dark-moon dragon) and a bit divided soul of schala (schala was devoured by lavos and dragons are like part of lavos) so the only dragon that actually cared about humans. And Fate is protector of humanity, so they joined hand to defeat true enemy of humans since beginning (lavos).
I’m actually replaying this masterpiece right now for the third time. ♥️ I guess chrono cross will always have a place in my heart. Absolutely love the story, characters, battle system, and THE MUSIC. 💯
3rd time? I replayed around 50. Still love the game! Need to find my ps3 to play again.
One of the best videogames of all time and that is a reason for make a remake. The new generation needs to know this masterpiece.
@Burgie They'd turn it into a mediocre action game and chop it up into episodes to destroy any sort of feeling of progression!
I'm afraid doing a remake will not make any good for this game just like what happened in ff7, in my opinion (its just 'meh'). maybe a remastered version will do just fine.
Remaster it needs! Like a hd 4k version.
Please not a remake that would suck!
@@Sauvenil damn straight dude.. Well said!
@@Kennosuke88 That being said... I'm still holding out for the other 5 episodes of Xenogears. (It's not mediocre though!)
This was the first video game I bought with my own money, and it is still my favorite rpg of all time. I have so many fond memories of this amazing game!
This game had me at the intro.
Still has the best damn musical score on the PS I had ever seen back then
Nope, Xenogears is the best work from Mitsuda... ever.
@@arapaimagold8088 nah
Both are great, both are by the same mitsuda. We loved him, we loved his works.
Chrono Cross and Suikoden III are two games I can immediately think of where I would watch the opening video every single time I booted up the game.
Great video! Sadly, baffles me that anyone remember Nobuteru Yuuki, the character designer of the game, to me one of the best artist on 90s anime. He created characters for cult classics like Record of the Lodoss War and Escaflowne, and worked in several games, sadly he is completely forgot nowadays. I think he was a key part on Chrono Cross, even when I haven't play the game except for a few hours the design of the characters is really amazing.
I actually remembered Nobuteru Yuuki for his character designs in the original Seiken Densetsu 3 (Trials of Mana), which would then get properly reflected in the 3D remake as seen with how the 2nd class changes look now. Though I did slightly gloss over the fact that he also did Chrono Cross.
@@TheHarunate its awesome you remember the guy! And Trials of Mana is a beautiful game did a great job of capturing the characters of the original. But if you look at the faces those are made in a nice but generic anime style you see everywhere nowadays. Yuuki had a very particular way of drawing faces (really appealing to me) but I guess its looks outdated today. Something similar happened with the new Record of Lodoss War game, where the creators did the same thing to the main character, keeping the overall look but changing the face and the particular details that made it a Yuuki design. But maybe I'm being too nit-picky XD
You gotta play the game. Every character has their own style that fit their personality perfectly.
I did not know either! Thanks! I always love when I discover some guy who made something I love, like Nobuteru Yuki, also participated in other things I love. To think that he worked on The Vision of Escaflowne and To Terra (the 2007 series) just makes my day.
@@zennvirus7980 So glad of that, man!
One of my favorite games . I remember I was playing 5 rpgs at the same time ff7,ff8,legends of legia,xenogears and chronocross best moment in my life for exceptional music and storylines . Man do I miss the old style games as far as story and implementation. I.e fully completed released games. Thanks for the nostalgia. The music brought back tons of memories
I know, right ? I can't understand how is people happy with new releases, they don't have nearly the same content as old games; you could be so many hours inside the game, just talking to every people you saw, checking every corner, getting every item, etc., and that translated a LOT into immersion with the story and characters; in the end, you really cared about them, because they had gone through a lot of "small" things. And well, of course it varied depending on how good the game was
@@juanjosefarina true
I'm a superfan of this game. Its fact the guile was gonna be magil but was cut for memory restrictions. Also zoah is a prince lol
A masterpiece. Love this game. An HD remaster to see the beautiful landscapes and art would be perfect.
This game had some of the best music out of any game i've played. I may be jaded or have a case of "nostalgia blindness" but I think it's just masterful
Why is this the 3rd video in the last week I watched where they mispronounced Guile's name. Have these mfs never even played Street Fighter?
"it has been said this game is not a sequel to Chrono Trigger"... Yet in the box it specifically talks about happening 20 years after trigger
The box only says "sequel to...." iirc
I mean there are a lot of connections to Trigger. It's more like an add on game I suppose?
@@kilik0410 "The long-awaited sequel to one of history's favorite adventures" you were even more on point than I was
@@Kuristofa138 I think that the actual "issue" with the vocal Trigger triggered Fandom is that they wanted Trigger 2, they wanted a direct sequel with the whole cast, didn't ask to get a sequel dealing with the consequences of time travel.
Add to that that not all of the 45 characters were as equally developed as other and you add to the fire
@@vanerek keep in mind that we could have gotten more than 45 characters if it wasn't scrapped
the game of my life. I hope they develop a remaster or remake soon.
From what I understand part of the reason for the Magus controversy was actually due to the excessive amount of characters meant they had less time to focus on the individual stories.
I always wished they trimmed down on the characters.
6 party-members would've already sufficed and they could've fleshed them out properly.
@@Caydiem . But who would you have left as playable party members?
10 characters.
I want another Chrono game whether it’s a sequel or”not sequel”.
There's always Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space.
i agree. i felt it few years after. because i want or would like see a happy ending ot some result from each characters and i would like them all have a reunion r something sit at the dnner table of food and talk about their adventures and then a happy suprising moment happen serge actually walk in etc
Chono break was a idea at one point apparently
I remembered the time i play this game.. it was in 2002.. my uncle gave me his PS1 console as a present for me as i was able to keep my promise in becoming one of the top students in my class.. i was 10 years old at that time.. and this is basicly the first RPG i've ever played.. my native language is Malay, and i only had basic understanding of English at that time.. it was truly frustrating playing the game as sometimes i cant find ways to progress it hence i resulted to the use of "walkthroughs". Basic english is what i had and i remembered holding the dictionary while translating words that i didn't know in the 100 paged walkthrough. The more i want to progress the game, the more i needed to learn..
As time passes, my teachers and fellow classmates started to realize that my proficiency in english had became tremendously better thus making them wonder how i did it since i came from a poor household that had little educational background.
They simply asked " How did you improved so much?"
" I learned it from video games " i answered.
...........
Fighting lavos at the end.. beating the game.. the credits rolled..
The ending theme played...
Watching it.. a weird feeling .. a kind of bitterness, a kind of sadness..
my eyes started to tear up.. watching the end credits while holding the dictionary and the walkthrough in front of me..
It was a journey for me.. to complete it.. and i did it while struggling to understand a different language than my own.. hence, a feeling of accomplishment as well as a feeling of gratitude..
Thank you, Chrono Cross..
Thank you..
Some can argue....but Chrono Cross is JRPG perfection...from mechanics to score....Happy Anniversary Chrono Cross 🤘

Actually, Lynx's Japanese name "Yamaneko" literally means "wildcat".
Mountain cat
and pochul is me dog pink !
I like many of the original Japanese names better. Marscella > Marcy. Many of the name retranslations were due to the limited spaces in the character names.
I played this well before trigger. It is sort of what got me into jrpgs. Love chrono cross to bits. The chrono and ff series are my absolute favorite.
Thanks for this vídeo. Chrono Cross is my favorite JRPG by far.
Will play it again right now.
I really like how Guile and Magus float the same way instead of just running when we make the characters walk faster.
I’m pretty sure that’s not coincidence by the developers (but I’m not saying they are the same just for this, but the similarities were there to intrigue since before fan theories).
i remember when i finished chrono cross, guile was in my party, and i remember seeing his ending segment and thinking "there's no way this guy isnt magus".
Actually, that part was wrong in this video, Guile's relationship with Magus was clarified.
The developers confirmed Guile was supposed to be Magus/Gil in Chrono Cross, but with all the sea of characters in the game, and the direction the story was heading, they decided to scrap the idea.
So yes, Guile was supposed to be Magus, but ended becoming his own character.
No, they said this game was "not a sequel to Chrono Trigger, not a chrono trigger 2". So they weren't saying it wasn't a sequel at all.
The game is very heavily intertwined with Chrono Trigger, taking place after/during Trigger, and the story moves on directly from the events of Crono and co in Trigger. The entire reason the Home World dimension exists is direcrly due to Lavos' defeat at Chrono and co.
One of the game that makes me feel empty after I finish it. Not because its bad, but because i know its already end and its saddened me.
I hope this one got a remake in the future
There's a rumor a remake is in production...
Comments that aged well.
Man, the soundtrack of this game is surely god tier composition. i remember just walking around Another world overworld just to listen to its soundtrack..
One of the games of my life. Great video, dude! Big hug from Brazil.
This was some neat info, glad to have heard some of this prior to the remaster coming out. gonna have to look into more of these little details i might have missed before the new playthrough
I've never played it but it looks like I'm missing out. They should bring it to Steam along with all PS games 😊
I think its on ps3. Or amazon for a fair price for ps1
It's an amazing game. To be honest, it drags a touch in some areas, but the art direction and soundtrack are phenomenal. Uematsu is the uncontested god of SE's library, but many of Yasunori Mitsuda's works are just transcendent. Will be listening to them for the rest of my life.
Anyways, solid 9/10, definitely worth a playthrough.
there is a texture replacement pack that you can enhance the entire game graphics using RetroArch emulator. its fairly easy to do but does take about 30mins or so to set up. its beautiful to play with the graphic enhancements
heres the tutorial to replace the textures. czcams.com/video/EyJPe84Kzcw/video.html
it's my favorite game of all time, but i'm biased the level of nostalgia is vomit-inducing whenever i hear even a tinge of the music lol
I loved this video, the theories about Harle and Kid, and specially the Suikoden referece
Kid is a clone of Schala
Harle is the main dragon boss at the end of the game.
Lynx is Chrono's father Wazuki. It is a messed up and very confusing story lol.
The game deserves a HD remake and added bonus content, chrono cross brings many of my childhood memories hope it comes back one day
i dont care what anyone says about chrono cross. i love this game whether or not it's a sequel it is also my favorite JRPG. one thing i would change tho is the battle theme music. it's the song you hear the most and it doesn't make me want to fight
Very interesting! Chrono Cross is my childhood, and I learned a lot about it from your video.
This is so informative, thanks, man!
This game is such a masterpiece. People keep praising FF (which is also a great series) but when I think of Square this is the game that comes to my mind instantly.
20 years...I want so many people to know about this game but at least I got to experience such a wonderful story.
for 20 dollars theirs no reason for me not to get the remaster of chrono cross. i hope they remake chrono trigger although i doubt they will do that.
people say chrono trigger is perfect except for the 25 year old graphics. they could do a much better job today then they did back then. They worked with what they had at the time. with todays technology things could be done much better. even an option for voices turned on or off could be possible.
And now I'm going to have to pull out my PS2 and play some Chrono Cross again.
Cross is definitely one of my favorite games of all time. Great video! 👍🏾
It wasn't hinted that magus was gill in radical dreamers, it was outright stated at the end of the game.
It's pretty much confirmed yeah, Magus at the end of Chrono Trigger has amnesia, so he most likely remembers nothing of his past.
“Chrono Cross is not a sequel to Chrono Trigger”
Bull many of the events in Cross happened as a result of what directly happened in Trigger
Yes I HATE it when people say it isnt a sequel. Thought "directly" is... indirect. As all endings are canon, there is not a direct timeline, but many of them.
It's not a sequel. It's another story in that same universe. Much like Lord of the rings is NOT a sequel to the Hobbit. Shares elements, characters and has relation. Is a different story, it's own story.
HpCriticAll
Trying to redefine the meaning of sequels eh?
TLotR is a sequel to Hobbit, Tolkien even wrote it as such. CC in turn has so much of its plot come from the events of FF that it’s ridiculous to act like they’re not related. It’s not like thematic series like Final Fantasy where each numbered installment has no direct impact on the other. The PS1 & DS versions even added some plot points that further connected CT & CC
It literally says on the disk box that it is a sequel that takes place 20 years after chrono trigger. I don't know how it can be more clear. But that is the world we live in I guess, where people are dumb and make up their own narratives.
Call it what you want but without a third title to bring them together it's mostly (although not entirely) two different stories.
"IT'S NOT A SEQUEL!"
- advertising at the time literally calling it a thrilling sequel
- using the characters from the first game as an easter egg in this game
- placing multiple characters throughout the game from the first game
- considering making it a "trilogy", which means it's literally a sequel
I used to fall asleep listening to a few select tracks from the soundtrack. It’s so good.
My favorites will always be the opening song, “Time’s Scar” and “Star Stealing Girl” the best songs.
This was fun, thanks for the video. Good job. :)
Great video Eric!!.. One of my all time favourite games too! I own a physical copy and the digital copy. I also bought the official walk-through😁. I have completed it dozens of times and still love coming back to it every now and then. Pure RPG with amazing music its legendary just like it's first game ..Chrono Trigger!🤤
Finally some love given to this great game! Thanks man! Awesome video! \o/
this is the first game in playstation where you could play as the villain.
This is one of those games that is such a classic that any rpg enthusiast or anyone interested in japanese videogame history should know about it, and a shout-out in a form of a remake, sequel or whatever would totally land it nowadays.
IKnowing the facts or not aside, it's a pleasure to watch this video since it nails the structure. Very interesting, very eloquent about what makes the game good, it gets personal but it's also professional... nice vid.
From one Chrono fan from the other, I hereby salute you.
Cheers.
I can't find where I heard about it, but apparently they used a script to write the general text for characters with accents ie. if the phrase was "This is a cat", the script would run it for Harle "Diz iz a cat." while Steena or someone else would say it differently.
Makes sense Kid being the main character. As she is the avatar for Schalla as the Frozen Flame is the avatar for Lavos. But Serge is like "link" between them. "The Arbiter of Fate" is not just a title, Serge is standing as representation for humanity on wether they can play the ancient melody of the Chrono Cross to prove they are one with the World and not "the offspring of Lavos", condemned to hurt Nature back and forth for progress as the reptitees were the natural supposed inheritors of the planet.
I never got to play it fully way back when it launched, Not long ago I heard about the Eiyuden project and I've been playing the suikoden games as a celebration for the spiritual successor of the series.. I guess I'll give Chrono Cross a go this upcoming days, thanks Eric!
So glad I'm not the only one that absolutely adored Chrono Cross. It was the game I played(probably too young) when I was I think.. 10? It made me feel, and think, and want to see and know more of the world and game. It was the first game to really do that for me.
Now, at 30, it's still one of my absolute favorites.
I love our generation of gaming. The new kids are being programed way differently . They won't see it the same.
One of my favorite RPG's of all time. Very underrated.
Well, I think you answered a question I've had for a long while: Why we haven't seen a re-release of Chrono Cross? Licensing issues with the music.
I fell in love with this game wen I was younger and I put so many hours in this game and I played it so much I had to buy 3 different copy’s and went through 2 ps1 and played so much man also have it on a ps3 and still to this day have a copy with all of my games
All of your points were so interesting that they stopped from multitasking hahaha such a wonderful game. Great video!
Didn't they even reference Radical Dreamers as another parallel dimension?
In Chrono Cross, there are two main dimensions (Home World and Another World), Sprigg's pocket dimension, and the little dimensional bend. When you're in Chronopolis, you can find a room with one of the save points taken apart. In the dimension that FATE controlled (Another?), the save points are where people go get advice for their day - which is just FATE telling them what to do to preserve her timeline. In Home World, the save points are known as RECORDS instead, where people save their stories. FATE has access to read these, but not to talk to them. That is, FATE couldn't direct these people, but could see how that dimension/universe played out.
...but there's one taken apart on a table in Chronopolis like someone was fixing it or doing maintenance on it. But it mentions Serge, Kid, and Magus (I believe), and I always thought it must have been ONE Record of Fate that was actually recording from the Radical Dreamers dimension, meaning it is canon to Chrono Cross as one more parallel world. So that wouldn't make Chrono Cross a remake so much as it would make it a parallel to that world.
And...Another World's overworld theme, to this day, brings tears to my eyes.
EDIT: Also, you said "Serge, being the narrator in Radical Dreamers..." ...isn't it ironic that the former narrator became the SILENT Protagonist?
Yes, I remember something like that, it felt strange to me that Eric didn't talk about it... Anyway, the japanese name being "Alfador" as well as Magus' cat, could easily mean Magus disguised himself inspired by his cat too, doesn't it ?
One of my absolute favorites. It's genuinely beautiful. Loved it from beginning to end.
I like how you employed the 'super sekrit' scene in the radical dreamers game(accessed through the already secret music menu). Glorious.
Great video!!
One of my all time favorites definitely needs a new one ❤️
I made the Guile-Magus connection without knowing anything about Radical Dreamers.
The hair, black magic affinity, mask and mystery all pointed in that direction- and from Chrono Trigger we are made to understand that Magus went searching for Schala
my fav game of all time, its as close to my heart as it is to yours. i vividly remember playing this for the first time. since then ive beaten is 20+ times.
Just got mine today 😊 looking forward to it😁
With the successful kickstarter of Eiyuden chronicles, I can see some of the old Chrono crew coming back to complete the trilogy.
I would love that to happen, we can only hope. As fans need to speak it into existence, do something to get our voices heard.
There's a mobile game called Another Eden, made by some of the people who worked on trigger and cross. Time travel is a big theme, even has a samurai frog guy, plus prehistoric people and futuristic sci-fi. They've been wanting to port it to the switch, so hopefully they do and it comes overseas.
Kurai Kusanagi I’m gonna check it out now sounds promising.
One more thing: It has surround sound, if you've got a compatible dolby system.
Even though it's got the dolby surround logo on the case, it was easy to ignore and not notice this back in the day since really not many people had (or could afford) a proper surround sound system with a receiver with pro logic decoding.
As you would expect of a game so heavily focused on sound, it's a real treat.
great video!
This video brought me back. One of my favorite RPG's form the 90's. I still have my original Copy of Chrono Cross in my bookshelf next to me :)
Great video! I love Chrono Cross too, such an awesome game 😁
“Daring” is a great descriptor because not all the gameplay mechanics worked well or were intuitive for new players. OST is one of the greatest tho
When the video started and the music played; I almost teared up from sheer nostalgia.
Always nice to see more Chrono Cross content. The game is criminally underrepresented.
Thanks man. Chrono Cross is also important to me as a game. It's plot goes into such awesome sci-fi themes like parallel realities and the more weird aspects of time. It also lead me to one of my favourite sci-fi writers, Barrington J. Bailey and his masterpiece 'The Fall of Chronopolis' (definitely read it if you want a timeless adventure on par with this one). And 'Radical Dreamers', the beautiful song of the beautiful, philosophical ending, the very first song I actually read (and learned) in Japanese.
Hands down one of the best RPGs ever made. It has one of the most satisfying combat systems even to this day. I’d love to see it adopted and modernized. Such a great system.
Best gaming experience ever. As for the music, words just cannot express it.
I think about it like this:
Kid is Chronopolis' guide for Serge to help humanity.
Harle is Dinopolis' guide for Serge to help the demi humans and dragon kind.
It was a theory and while it's not a flawless theory, there is some room for plausibility.
I loved this game, got it imported when i was younger. Need to get it again :)
i played it so much i had to buy a new copy
How I can play that game in 2020?
Other then buying a copy for ps1 not sure
"not a sequel" about a game that references the other game heavily at points. showing characters from the other game. mainly about a non playable character from the other game. and actualy has set peices such as nadia's bell
the creators only started the "yeah nothing to do with eachother" thing to shut up angry fans because they killed off chrono marle and lucca
I played this game just recently thinking at first that the titles were just coincidental lol and when I heard the victory theme I was like "yeah this is Chrono Trigger"
Its really not. Just because it has the lore, and references the characters, and the only true physical connection in the game was Kid, technically Schala, which was nevwr properly explained or fleshed out, then threw in a random final boss that you only knew about in the last couple hours of the game, I'd say thats very loosely basex.
@@nonyabidness8676 dont get me wrong. I love the game. I still have it digitally on my ps3. It just didn't address any of the issues. You never figure out why Schala was there. Guile was supposed to be Magus keeping an eye on Kid/Schala but the creators felt it would take away too much from the story already. They didnt address the multiverse that they inevitably created in the original. It all felt rushed to give Chrono Trigger something after.
@@QuackTape21 dude you actually see crono and lucca in Chrono Cross.
@@robertoveroyguitar I know. But if uou didnt already know this was a sequel...youd think who the fuck are these kids? Which is why I say its loose
Amazing game, one of my favorites all time for sure. With so many characters, it would take you three playthroughs to get all of them because at one point, you have to pick 1 of 3 characters to go with you and would become a permanent part of your roster, the other two are never recruitable for that playthrough again. Guile was one of the ones you could pick, don't remember the other two. Not only all of this but you had to have known how to remember the past playthroughs in the game to pull those rosters into your current playthrough and if you didn't you would never get all the characters. It was somewhere in the swamp as I recall. Its the entrance to the Dimensional Vortex, the same place you meet Sprigg.
The entire sound track to this game gets me every single time.
I forgot how many cutscenes were in this game, and how beautiful they were. I really need to revisit this game.
The main story, the soundtracks, characters backstory, the world, this game is everything in my childhood
I'd love this to make it on current consoles, I remember picking it up in a store in the uk(expensive import) and loving it. I St I'll have it today from all those years ago.
The music gives me chills every time.
I still have this game. I think I'll revisit it soon. Probably been 18+ years since I touched it, beat it twice.
I appreciate the research, fun video! Plus I love the game as a kid.
oh Erick...what a time to be alive
This game deserve to have a REMAKE.. Legendary.
I remember this game kept me up all night! And the music... Wow! Kids now missed this out.
I really want to play this game, but I get nervous about the fact that there are characters that you can miss recruiting.
While you CAN miss recruiting characters, that's not something to seriously worry about - like its predecessor, you're meant to play the game multiple times via New Game+. It's actually impossible to recruit all of the characters in a single playthrough.
I'm gonna try it again. I think it's on pstv?
I remember you need to choose your paths to get the best characters,save kid,fight the dragons,defeat the final boss with correct elements. And kid is a time traveller i think, and lynx is a inspirations of kimahri in FFX.
Guile almost being called alfador is so unbelievably fitting.
Omg finally someone posts a video about facts about chrono cross recently. You don’t see many reviews or info vids of chrono cross on CZcams.
this is also my favorite game, great review and interesting facts.
