take a break, a chrono break

KingOfHell · Post by **KingOfHell** » Sun Feb 26, 2006 11:46 pm

This is my first post here jus thought i'd open up with something i've been wondering.
Anyone know anything about the state of the next chrono game? I heard that square-enix trademarked the name "Chrono Break" but haven't released any info on the subject. Perhaps another collaboration between Squaresoft and Enix game designer's like chrono trigger's "Dream Team" will create another masterpiece.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Sun Feb 26, 2006 11:56 pm

Chrono Break got cancelled/removed from the trademark list.

Chrono Brake is still there, but they've announced absolutely nothing, and probably never will.

It's not like CC didn't suck anyway, and with all the talent working on extraordinary games like Xenosaga, I'll just stick to wanting ports of Chrono Trigger on my handheld of choice.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 12:52 pm

There's absolutley no info about so anything that we can tell you would just be made up internet speculation.

CC didn't suck. It just should have been about a third as long, if that, and there shouldn't have been any battles because the system sucked.

I used to deliver a magazine called Take A Break. I used to read it before I delivered it to people.

Look on the bright side, at least you have Chrono Trigger!

Its the magazine of the unemployed housewife who want's 'real life' stories and crap. I read it because I was bored, and the newspapers I had to deliver were even more shit.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:05 pm

Most (dare I say all) magazines for women are shit like that.
That's just one of the titles for the more mature woman.
Is that the best job you ever had?

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:06 pm

No, the best job I ever had was a Deli Worker at Morrisons.
And I agree, all women's magazines are shit. Its all celebrity gossip and how to look like them.

Men's mag's are good. Humorours, and full of women wearing little.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:17 pm

Mens mags are terrible

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:19 pm

Mens Mags > Womens Mags

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:31 pm

Yesa, but that's not saying much

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:38 pm

Magazines are for losers. Read a book.

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:41 pm

My books are all boring
"Teach yourself Java in one semester"
"Intro to C++"
"How to break into the games industry"

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 5:07 pm

..... I meant a novel.

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 5:13 pm

Um.....I only have 'A Dragon Lovers Treasury Of The Fantastic'

And I've read that about 10 times.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 5:21 pm

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 5:22 pm

Its a book. Of short stories. About Dragons.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 9:10 pm

You're saying it should've been an anime.

All RPG's are basically Anime's with a Dongeons and Dragons system built in, one without the other always feels lacking, its when an RPG has the perfect combination of a innovative challenging battle system, good character development and intriguing story does it makes it a winner. Vagrant Story, Xenogears, pretty much all FF's, and many others all accomplish that.

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 10:21 pm

Geez, all rpgs? If you live in japan, maybe (and it's still a bit of a stretch). However, I'd like you to explain me how exactly [google]Planescape Torment[/google] is an anime.

KingOfHell · Post by **KingOfHell** » Mon Mar 13, 2006 5:14 am

Planescape Torment is exactly the kind of RPG i dont wanna play, looks hella gay

That has nothing to do with anything you quoted.

Of course, I think you know that and this is a joke, but I don't approve.

Yuka · Post by **Yuka** » Mon Mar 13, 2006 4:44 pm

You've looked everywhere?
Clearly not if you can't find a ROM of CT.

Sadly enough for you and Golbez, it has one of the most interesting, well-written, and original plot of any game I have ever played. But then again, you are probably the kind that considers FFVII:AC's plot fresh and original, sucks to be you.

And thanks for avoiding my question.

I've actually played part of Planescape Torment. I don't know where the plot goes, but it is presented in a way I simply can't stand.

Hmmmm

Anyone catch that mock anime for CT which was used to promote the game way back when? I rescently found it online. Pretty hilarious but I woulda liked to have seen the main characters animating.

I loved that game so much. Played it probably 10 times after an introduction to squar via Secret of Mana.

I actually went and looked up Planetscape, 'cause you praised it so highly.

It looks pretty darn cool.

I like the way the plot sounds (this is IGN review I was looking at (ohnoez!)) and how, apparently, most people you meet are mad at you.

And then you gain skills through flashbacks.

a succubus who's given up sex, an animated suit of armor with a Batman-like obsession with Justice

Characters like that, FTW.

However, I was skimming battle system, and, D&D? How D&D is it? 'cause like... I am not intelligent enough for complicated battle systems...

... *goes and plays Chrono Cross* >_>

fire2ash · Post by **fire2ash** » Thu Mar 16, 2006 9:56 pm

CC had one of the best plots evar!

Seriously, it is top 3 for me for ps1 rpg's, along with Xenogears and FFVII

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Thu Mar 16, 2006 10:44 pm

Mind you, PT has a terrible battle system. It's like Baldur's Gate, but worse! Reminds me of FFIX compared to previous FFs.

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Fri Mar 17, 2006 1:47 am

Oh, okay then Ward.

Wanna just tell me what the story is about?

'cause it intrigues me. :3

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Fri Mar 17, 2006 1:54 am

You can't die. You wake up, not knowing why you can't die, looking like a corpse. Throw in a quest to find your true identity with lots of fantastic existential spin, and you get a good idea of what to expect.

The you can't die part offers a nice twist to the gameplay sometimes too. :3

Sephira · Post by **Sephira** » Fri Mar 17, 2006 3:09 am

Cool. :3

It sounds interesting. I wanna go find a plot guide/summary now. >_>

You start in the same place as the beginning when you die, so it's about the same thing.

You haven't played the game a lot, have you?

Chrono Break is going to be released on PS3 release day to push sales for it.

Have a nice day

Chrono_Misjudged · Post by **Chrono_Misjudged** » Mon Sep 04, 2006 3:49 pm

Does Chrono Brake exist as a follow-up in the Chrono sequels?
or it's just a rumour? Is S-E going to develop another Chrono game?

Changing the subject, I want to buy some CT guide, the kind of V-jump Shueisha guides. It's possible to buy them from eBay. I want to find out If someone know something about this issue and is able to advise me. Furthermore I don't either know which guide to buy, since there are three:

- Super Famicom Players Guide * V-Jump, Shueisha, 1995 * 152 pages, 1 mini poster

- "The Perfect" Super Famicom Players Guide * V-Jump, Shueisha, 1995 * 290 pages

- "The Complete" Playstation Players Guide * V-Jump, Shueisha, 1999 * 226 pages

I'd like to buy the one which contains more original art by character designer Akira Toriyama.

Do Anyone Know which of these guides contain more original art by character designer Akira Toriyama?

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Mon Sep 04, 2006 9:36 pm

I could probably help you concerning those guides, as I own most (all?

) of them. However, I'm not at home currently, I can give you the info next week-end when I'm back.

Posting the same post in 2 different threads=

(especially as both were dead threads...)

As for my reply on the subject see the other thread.

And

to getting the guide from Entr0pi3, from what I've seen her guides and artbooks are all kept in very good condition.
