The Kalsi Trigger (Cross)

Chrono Cross, the new and improved version of a classic epic of the former Chrono Trigger had ventured into the playstation in 1999. I am currently playing it. The best thing about this game, other than its awesomeness in kicking severe arse, is its music. The music is just AWESOME. I've decided I am going to learn the "Radical Dreamers" track which is apparently the ending song in the game. Its in Japanese but I found a site with its english translation. This is gonna take a while, but Im gonna do it before I die. For those of you who are not familiar with Chrono Cross, let me give u a review so far of what I think:

Pros:
1. Great game
2. Cool characters, and, unlike Final Fantasy series you can actually avoid the monsters in this one as you can see them when you're walking around. Big bonus.
3. Not only are the characters cool, there's about 30 of them or so, each with optional quests and also add to the story.
4. I've heard if you finish the game, and start a new game ...things change as well!! OH MY GOD!
5. Its long and compelling, the FMV's are great considering how old it is. Storyline grabs you by the balls and doesnt let go until around 30 or so hours of gameplay, in which by that time ur balls are really sore.
6. If you dont have friends this is the best game for you

Cons:
1. Makes you put on weight
2. You will become antisocial and discuss Chrono Cross with your hot chick friends regardless of if they're interested or not
3. You will start smelling because its 3:30 in the morning and you didnt shower today*

Overall so far: 9/10

Get this game, its superb.
