Chrono Trigger released for Android
By Thom Holwerda on 2012-10-29 14:54:39
It's already been out for iOS for a while, but today, Android users can join in on this piece of gaming history as well. Chrono Trigger, arguably one of the best - if not the best - games ever made has just been released for Android. Whether you ascribe to that position or not, this 1995 SNES classic from Square was revolutionary in many ways (oh the music...), and you owe it to yourself to give it a go. It's EUR 7.99, which isn't cheap, but trust me: it's worth it. My Nexus 7 just became even more useful.

Yes! That's were I got my U4. I want to dump it in Dropbox because of the saved game, so I can play at home, bed and work. I assume it saves the game within the emulated app itself so it should run and play fine from Dropbox.

> Even though I'm an Ultima fan the combat system used in SSI's Advanced Dungeons & Dragons games was more fun.

I would absolutely *LOVE*, and even PAY FOR, a modern-day RPG that included proper turn-based combat like the old AD&D/Forgotten Realms games. There's really no better way to handle combat for a party of 6 characters going up against dozens of enemies.

I hate the pseudo-realtime+pause that all the modern RPGs are moving toward.

Seems to me that touchscreen devices would be perfect for this style of game. Yet, no one has come out with one (that I can find, anyway).

I always liked FF6's music much better.

Especially when orchestrated:

But, CT is a better game in a lot of ways, and certainly far, far less melodramatic than FF6.

RE: No, not cheap

Err, might be in the minority here but giving it away would be too expensive. Surprised people would waste time playing this and as for the 'great' music....best not say.

About the music...
By Lava_Croft on 2012-10-29 20:44:17
At least Chrono Trigger's music is good enough to get this kind of treatment: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s...
