The gameplay makes really fantastic usage of the Nintendo DS but also proves to be its own type of learning curve. Your entire experience and personal enjoyment of the game could hinder on your grasp of it. Other than that, this was a fantastic game with an ending so perfectly left ambiguous enough (unless you do post-game stuff) that it really redefined the game as a whole for me.

Cannot wait to play NEO.

sho minamimoto.....what else do i need to say

One of my favourite video games

The gameplay gets gradually worse in every conceivable way as you go on, it entirely stops being fun at the end, and instead just becomes some grind to make the protagonist overpowered with a team of Holy Dance users. At least the game's aesthetic, with the music and the premise, is pretty cool.

Every review website is prone to blatant amounts of hyperbole and grandiose, all-encompassing statements made by people who completely lack the necessary foresight and experience to make them.

I'm about to use my one free pass for such statements here: Chrono Cross is the best JRPG of all time. Hell, it's probably the best sequel of all time. Play Chrono Trigger first, and then go into Chrono Cross without any pretenses of what a Chrono game should be that you may have picked up from others' opinions, or whether or not this is "truly" a sequel to Trigger.

Radical Dreamers (released in 1996 for the SNES via Satellavision) is a mandatory companion piece and sister story (specifically for the sake of understanding Kid, the deuteragonist of Cross), but best saved for after playing Cross despite having been released earlier.
