if these picture are true, then its not a remake but actuallt a port.

PS360WII5772d ago (Edited 5772d ago )

That was known. They are adding another dungeon and wifi stuff but it's still the original game

Chris Hansen5772d ago

Thats pretty freaking lame if it really is just a port. Why not just put it on Virtual Consoles for 5-10 bucks instead? Square will probably charge us $20-$30 bucks for this too.

PS360WII5772d ago

I'm sure Square Enix will charge 40 for it actually which is why they didn't put it out on VC...

zslash5772d ago

Yep. Square knows people will still buy it at $40. That's why they didn't bother putting it on the VC.

kewlkat0075772d ago (Edited 5772d ago )

to the Chrono Trigger (3-D project that guy was working on). It was looking like a N64 game. I'll still end up getting this game I just love the Soundtrack that much..

I feel your pain man. I was following this project years ago and was pretty pissed when Square stopped them.

iamtehpwn5772d ago

it was looking like a full on PS2 game.

hades075771d ago

That looks amazing, why wouldnt Square-Enix just hire these guys on a contract and put the remake onto the PS2 or even update a little bit more and put it out on current gen systems.

Nitrowolf25772d ago

that is lame
at least they haed a remake of FF4 for DS def going to pick that up

RecSpec5772d ago

Of course, they ported FF4 to the GBA before the remake

Watch, CT remake in two years.

LeShin5772d ago

Well that saved me some money! I thought it was going to be a remake and I wanted to justify me buying a DS for one game lol No need now since I've got the original on an SNES emulator.

Super Mario RPG Remake Brings Us One Step Closer To Chrono Trigger

It's long been thought that a Chrono Trigger remake is impossible, but the Super Mario RPG remake could pave the way.

It's already been said that they weren't motivated to do anything with the series unless the gang was back together, not really for any legal reasons.

I'm honestly happy with the Steam port of the game.

A third Chrono series game called Chrono Break was planned, but Square prioritized an MMORPG, and Chrono Break’s concepts were used in mobile games.

Square isn’t what it used to be.

CrimsonWing69418d ago

It’s true.

Squaresoft used to be like the equivalent of Naughty Dog back in the day. When you heard Squaresoft was making a game you knew it’d be a banger.

god I miss those days.

porkChop418d ago

Yeah they used to be the best in the industry. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within is the worst decision they ever made. While they had previously talked about merging with Enix, that film flopping so hard left them with no other option.

CrimsonWing69417d ago

@porkChop

My understanding is that merger was happening before the film and the flop of the film freaked them out because they thought Enix would call it off.

I personally wish Square Pictures was a success. I thought the Matrix shirt they did was cool and they were pushing computer animation into a more mature realm.

Unfortunately, Spirits Within noted many and wasn’t the FF movie a lot of fans wanted. I thought it was decent, but something like Advent Children should’ve been the direction they went.

Ronmaest412d ago

To me, Naughty Dog is now Naughtycucks.p after that god awful story in LoU 2.

It was people like Yasumi Matsuno that held it for me, at Squaresoft. The company thought them too radical and ran them out. And now they yearn for people like that. They’re short sighted and pathetic.

GoodGuy09418d ago

Square ruined pretty much every great old franchise they've had.

franwex418d ago

Kinda misleading title, even from reading the article itself.

The staff and management couldn’t come to an agreement and the team moved on. Part of the team went to creat ff11 and the rest to Monolith software. Ideas for this game were implemented in some form to mobile games-later on. Which make sense as early 2000s mobile phones were not as powerful.

Top 20 Soundtracks From the 16-Bit Era

In the 16-bit era, game devs and composers could finally change the type of tones used in the music, simulating a wider array of instruments and creating a whole lot of great soundtracks in the process.

It wasn’t easy picking out the best of the best because there were so many great ones. Even middle-of-the-road soundtracks seemed to deserve a bump if the game was just that damn good, and so many from that era are that damn good!

Here's the Ghetto Gamer list of top 20 soundtracks from the 16-bit era.
