Product Details of Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Description

From the glory days of RPGs, by the masters of the game, Final Fantasy Chronicles unites two classic Square role-playing games in one must-own package. From the Final Fantasy realm comes a brand new translation of the great Final Fantasy IV (released in America as FF2), while from other lands comes the equally memorable Chrono Trigger. Each is enhanced from their acclaimed originals, with new cinematic sequences, new gameplay, enemies, and items, and a translation truer to the original Japanese text. Chrono Trigger even includes new elements that help tie up loose ends that lead up to its sequel Chrono Cross, while Final Fantasy IV takes the gameplay to another level with a two-player battle mode that for the first time in a Final Fantasy game lets other players join together in combat sequences. Nearly every RPG you've played on PlayStation traces its inspiration back to the two landmark RPGs in this collection. Celebrate the games that ignited a passion and started a role-playing revolution with Final Fantasy Chronicles.

The Best Role-Player AND How To Fix the Load Time...

Strengths: best RPG ever made

Weakness: starting to show its age

I've noticed a couple people complain about the load times (especially during battles). There's a quick and easy fix for PS2 owners: In the main menu under the PS1 Driver, there's a setup option for "Fast Loading". When you turn that on, the game will load as fast as the original cartridge did. Problem solved. . And now for the game: Chrono Trigger is one of, perhaps even *the best*, role-playing...

2 classics return

Strengths: 2 games for the price of 1. New cinemas added.

Weakness: Load times not found in the original versions.

Final Fantasy Chronicles is a collection of both Final Fantasy 4 and Chrono Trigger. Both games were previously available on the Super Nintendo and now Square has decided to release them on the Playstation. Both games are exact ports of the original games with new cinemas scenes added in. There is also more loading time since the original games were in cartridge format. This is really the only...

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: You get Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 4 on one disc.

Weakness: Old graphics could be a turn off for some.

Final Fantasy: Chronicles is a collection of two RPGs. You get Final Fantasy 4 and Chrono Trigger. I really don't know why they call this Final Fantasy Chronicles when you only get one Final Fantasy game, but go figure. These two games are instant classics for any RPG fan. Both are memorable and enjoyable even now. Chrono Trigger even has character designs by the person who did Dragon Ball...

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: New FMV added, two great games in one package, Chrono Trigger still stands the test of time.

Weakness: Load times, bad sound due to poor emulation.

Final Fantasy IV (or II if you prefer) was my first experience with RPGs. The epic storyline and stirring music just sucked me into the game and made me a RPG fan for life. While it has not stood the test of time (in terms of graphics or story) as well as some of its counterparts from the 16-bit days, it's still a great game and great reference material. On the other hand, Chrono Trigger has held...

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: Great Games

Weakness: None really

These are two incredible games put together into one game. Anyone who plays games should go out and get this because of the great gameplay. People who have already experienced the games can enjoy the great games they already played and new gamers can see how great the games are.

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: 2 amazing games for a low price

Weakness: none

These are two of the best old school games ever. The original SNES versions of these games were some of the best and most groundbreaking RPG's of the time. Its awesome that they're now available on PSOne with added fmv's. All the nostalgia of the originals is captured in this compilation for a really low price.

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: This game has two FABULOUS games. Collector's item. Chrono Trigger is the best game EVER. Multiple endings (Chrono Trigger)

Weakness: Load times not apparent on originals cartridge versions. Not as much CG as expected.

This is a MUST have for any classic RPG player out there. Chrono Trigger is by far one of my favs. When I found out it was being re-released I was so happy because my cartridge had bit the dust. I have waited long enough to get this but it was well worth the wait. It even made playing through it more exciting because I hadn't played it in so long. Also I have to give Final Fantasy props because...

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: Gives you two games for the price of one. The new anamie fmvs are the best i've ever seen. Crono Trigger has a very deep story line. And Final Fantesy........ well what is there to say?

Weakness: Final Fantesy 4 needs updateing in the graphics department. Crono Trigger is a littel long but is well worth it.

I've never seen a game that was more appeling. The final fantesy empier and square soft makeing the best game. Never (i think) will i see a game set this great.

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: * more or less an exact port of the original Japanese version ( new to people who've only played the U.S. version ) which brings back memories! * includes two games for the price of one

Weakness: * the added movies for FF4 are somewhat weak. Seem rather quickly thrown together. * It would have been nice to incorporate some of the newer UI tweaks that are present in the more recent FF games.

First of all, if all you want is to play that game that once took your breathe away 13 years ago, then that $20 or less you'll be spending on this game will be more than worth it. Having said that, if you're like me then you're going to play the game spoiled with all the recent FF advancements in mind. I'm not talking about the 3D characters and such as I'm all for story over eye candy. What I'm...

Final Fantasy Chronicles PSX

Strengths: Two great Square games in one package.

Weakness: You have to like the old-school RPGs. The graphics are not anything special (in today's standards).

You get two great Square Enix (formally Squaresoft) games for the price of one. Sure, they're older games, but they're classics. This is a great chance to replay your old-time favorites from the Super NES days. Or if you're new to the "Final Fantasy" and / or the "Chrono" games, this is a great place to see where the newer games get their backbones from. When two classic games are bundled...
