I enjoyed ChronoCross, but I felt very disappointed after beating it.
Things I don't like about ChronoCross:
a)it barely relates to CT's story
b)it's nowhere as dismal as CT
c)way too many characters for the game
d)music wasn't as good as CT
e)wasn't a real big fan of the world and environments
f)battles weren't that entertaining
g)didn't like the dialect of some of the characters
h)story did not engross me at all. was too predictable
i) + other's I can't think of at the moment.

That being said, I wouldn't mind playing it again.. but it just doesn't feel like CT. Indeed, it's a completely different game, but it just was boring compared to the original. I preordered it and got it the day it came out, so I guess you could say I had been anticipating it since beating CT back in '95. (or was it '96? can't even remember)

Xenogears on the other hand... now that's a great game.. regardless of if they ran out of funding and had to rush the last CD of the game.


I don't know man. I love Chrono Trigger and I see what you mean about Chrono Cross being a bad sequel but I think that's because it's not a direct sequel to CT. It's just an alternate timeline created when the dudes from CT saved the world. I really don't think you can justify saying the plot didn't engross you only because I've done the research and the plot and backstory has enough material to fill a 7 book sci-fi series. Ridiculous things about timelines and dimensions and why everything ended up the way it did in the two chrono cross worlds with different connections to what happened in Chrono Trigger. For example, Fate was made from Robo. etc etc

There are a LOT subtle connections to CT and a few LARGE ones. I'm replaying it right now. I say you give it a try too. Then we'll be best friends forever.
