{"product_id":"chrono-cross-playstation","title":"Chrono Cross - PlayStation","description":"\u003cp\u003eProduct DescriptionWhile its officially a sequel to the immensely popular Chrono control button  Chrono Cross is completely its own role-playing game with over 40 characters  a branching story line  and multiple endings. Like its predecessor  the game is about crossing through time and setting things right. This story focuses on Serges quest for the Frozen Flame  which will give the beholder the power to bend space and time. Serge wants the power to save himself from dying in a parallel universe but  as you can guess  nefarious forces are also vying for the Frozen Flame to suit their own purposes.Chrono Cross features the stylish character designs and wondrous cut scenes that gamers have come to expect from SquareSoft  but the game also has a number of gameplay innovations. Though the adventure theme engine is essentially turn-based  characters dont have to wait their turn to cast a spell or make an attack; adventure themes are modereviewed by stamina. Also  the repetitive adventure themes with lesser monsters that make so many RPGs sag can be easily avoided because all monsters can be seen on the screen.marketplace.comChrono Cross  the sequel to the Super Nintendo classic Chrono control button  turns out to be well worth the wait. Taking off 20 years after the first game  Chrono Cross follows a boy named Serge across parallel worlds--both the world in which he lives and one in which he drowned 10 years earlier.Chrono Cross will wow players with beautiful prerendered graphics and a unique adventure theme system. Elements replace magic and items in adventure theme  and using the same element three times in a row will ultimately increase your power. In addition to using elements  the accuracy of physical attacks is determined by probability  with easier-to-land weak attacks setting up fierce blows.The plot  while a bit slow to develop  is full of interesting characters. Players will need to tpartyl playween the two worlds to advance the plot. While many of these areas will initially appear to look similar  youll find them to be quite different upon closer examination of the details. For instance  a plant that is extinct in one world thrives in the other.My only qualm with Chrono Cross is that  despite the complexities of the adventure theme system  veterans will have an easy time with early adventure themes. Still  theres much to like about this SquareSoft epic. --Robb GuidoPros: Lavish  vibrantly colored graphics Unique adventure theme system involving elements and casting away role-playing clich?s like experience and magic points Cons: Easy adventure themes due to powerful offensive and support elements For hours  players will be saying  Get to the time tpartyl stuffReviewSquares Chrono control button got everything right. The self-proclaimed dream team of scenarist Yuji Hori (Dragon Quest)  producer Hironobu Sakaguchi (Final Fantasy)  and character designer Akira Toriyama (Dragon Ball Z) created a quirky  enjoyable romp through time with a cast of endearing characters  memorable environments  solid RPG gameplay  and unparalleled presentation. Needless to say  fans of the 16-bit SNES game have clamored for a sequel ever since. Which is why  after nearly five years of silence  the announcement of Chrono Cross drew so much ire. Where was the legendary dream team? (Only Sakaguchi contributed to Chrono Cross.) Where was the cast of characters we had grown to know and love? And who the hell was that Thundercats reject named Yamaneko? Things looked grim for the Chrono control button faithful. When Chrono Cross was revealed to have 40 playable characters  many lost faith entirely in the game. Had Square thrown all pretense of a coherent title out the window? But fortunately for series fans  Chrono control buttons dream team doesnt have a monopoly on RPG innovation. As with the first SNES title  everything in Chrono Cross clicks in a way most games wish they could imitate. The different parts combine into an instant RPG classic.
