Told everyone not to get excited.

knox5405d ago

this is sad, not even news for the psn or anything......i would DIE for a new chrono trigger, loved the first one soooooooooooo much =|

Megaton5405d ago

Learned a long time ago not to get excited about anything Chrono related (and I liked Chrono Cross, a lot). I think the series remaining a stagnant IP is one of the greatest and oldest tragedies in gaming.

snakebite365405d ago

I think it's pretty cool. I love the Chrono Trigger soundtrack.

RockmanII75405d ago

I'm not a big fan of the series, but it would be cool if Chrono Break came out to compete with FF13

Infernostew5405d ago

Why would Square-Enix want to compete against them self?

JonnyBigBoss5405d ago

Bummer. Why don't companies actually do what we think they are, because we obviously want it.

Kushan5405d ago

Call me cynical, but I'd bet whoever is in charge at SE is waiting for the time when the shareholders get pissy with him, so he can then pull out a FF7 remake and look like a hero to the whole company.

ExcelKnight5405d ago

The way things are going, that won't happen for a decade.

Perkel5405d ago

lol @ square

god*****n damn it ! just release Remakes we need ! Yeah music is cool but remake of chrono trigger will sell milions !

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.

Mobile Games Killed The Dream Of Chrono Trigger 3

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.

CrimsonWing69439d 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.

porkChop439d 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.

CrimsonWing69438d 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.

Ronmaest433d 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.

GoodGuy09439d ago

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

franwex439d 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.
