Chrono Cross is a great soundtrack, definately one of my favorites. I love that a few songs take theme from Chrono Trigger and rearrange them with the CD technology and island feel. The soundtrack is definately closer to a sequel than the game is.
@Retro gamer- Hahaha, congrats on the most generic retro gamer named EVAR! Wow, I can't believe that was available. Yeah, I like how you put it. The soundtrack is more of a sequel than the game is.
@Retro Gamer- ALSO!! You fail at blogging. Stop it. Make some blogs about retro gaming. If you do, you will be added to my friends list, where there will be reading and procrastinating of homework.
@Retro Gamer- Actually, that is not an attempt at making myself feel better, hahaha. It's a demonstration of how desperately Destructoid needs an "Edit" button for comments.....
I played it before I played Chrono Trigger as well and really loved it. I think having no preconceived notions is a prerequisite for fully enjoying this game.
Damn kid, if you think this is good, you really need to do you rpg music homework. So much good game music out there from games you've never played, but kudos to you for doing a game music piece.
Frankly, while this is cool music, I do prefer the Chrono Trigger OST, as it spanks all of this from a great height. Check it out if you can.

I played Chrono Trigger first, and I'm honestly not afraid to say that I think Chrono Cross is the better game. Seriously.
And I think you feel the same way, you're just afraid to admit it.
As for the music, I agree, it's fucking spectacular. Again, I personally like it better than it's predecessor's soundtrack. Nice write up.

Ooh. This gives me a chance to share my favorite youtube video.

@Coyboy Ttop- Well, first off I'm not really a kid, hahaha, I'm 21. And second, I must have done my homework if I know enough music to write to right about it all weekly (if not more). I know that Final Fantasy VI has amazing music as well as Secret of Mana and all the millions of other RPGs (including Chrono Trigger) on the Super Nintendo as well as games on the NES, etc. I'm a retro gamer so that stuff is pretty much all I play. Like I said, I came into gaming late in my life and Chrono Cross was one of the games that inspired me to start playing more RPGs. I didn't say that all I had been playing for the past 7 or 8 years was PSone games, haha.
@EternalDeathslayer- Well, I love Chrono Cross, but I really think that i would have liked Chrono Trigger better. I kind of see them as two separate entities since they're so different. I'm fonder of Chrono Cross, but having gone back and beaten Chrono Trigger (beaten is key because the coolest stuff happens later on) I think I can say that Chrono Trigger is a superior game. However, personally? Yes, I'm fonder of Chrono Cross.

This sounds like it'll be a pretty good series of blogs. There's so many choices in great video game music, and I feel like I've only just heard the tip of the iceberg when it comes to great game music, so I hope I can get some education out of this.
