To celebrate the 20,000 follower mark for the Square Enix Members Twitter, Square Enix is releasing one of my favorite PS1 RPGs in Japan for their PSN Game Archives line up, Chrono Cross. Andria Sang says that Producer Shinji Hashimoto, who manages the Square Enix Members Twitter, announced thethat Chrono Cross was coming to the Japan PSN today, but did not share a download time frame.
Square Enix says that there's another present to celebrate the 20,000 followers. We don't know what it is yet, but it will be something other than a downloadable game.
Hey, Square Enix. Forget counting followers in one territory. What's the hold up? You like money, don't you? Get these games up on PSN worldwide! We'll buy 'em!

Anyways. I don't think SquareEnix likes money. Between this not being on the US PSN, FF7 still not remade, and FF14 sucking ass, I think they in fact hate money.
Thanks. I'd remembered being one of the very few games that had gotten a perfect score from Gamespot a few years ago, but I wasn't sure which one fans tended to enjoy the most.
So close, SE. Now just BRING THESE GAMES TO THE U.S.
That was the only thing wrong with it. The problem is, of course, it is being compared to the most impossibly perfect RPG ever made. Chrono Cross takes a lot of the same ideas and tries to build on them, while adding some really cool new ones, but...the developers didn't quite understand just how they'd made such a perfect game in the first place.
As such, CC is a bastard little brother. That said, it is a fantastic game, perhaps the best JRPG of the Playstation generation, and it one ups Chrono Trigger in one area: its soundtrack is up there with the absolute best ever. Cross has the better story, too, but much of that is lost in its labyrinth-like telling.
Wanna know a quick way to make me get rid of my PSPs homebrew once and for all? Start talking with Capcom to bring out its library of PS1 titles to the service.
I expect the entire Mega Man line up before Mega Man Legends 3 hits on the 3DS.
One of my favorite games, probably my favorite PS1 game.
bring it!
