Aye, I think Chrono Crisis is looking damn good myself. What will I need in order to play it when the final product is released?

Same here, I misused a credit card, and as such, can't get what I want on-line anymore.

Site Updates / Kato & Mitsuda are at it again!

I can attest myself that the DS has an awesome sound system. WAY better than the GBA, Meteos is proof of this, as is Advance Wars DS (well, most of the themes of that game anyway, Nell's was disappointing), and the new Castlevania (Dawn of Sorrow) looks to have an AMAZING soundtrack. So yes, I can attest that the DS has some great stuff going on.

General Discussion / Top 5 biggest mistakes of Nintendo....

Also, the PSP is gonna have GT4 & GTA on it, I think those alone make it worth it...It's just taking a little while to pick up it's pace...and I really haven't seen anything outstanding from the DS side myself...just a lot of crappy looking "[insert franchise name here] Touch" games and stuff like Nintendogsbut what do I know? Maybe they're just hiding their better games or something...You also have to take into account that the PSP isn't just a portable console...It has other uses that two touch screens (can you yell lame gimmick any louder Nintendo?) just don't make up for...
Wow...just...wow...it seems you've truly been taken over by the hype machine, eh? GT4 is a great game, but I already have it for the PS2. Sure, the idea of having it be portable is a great idea indeed, but I sincerely don't think that it alone makes the PSP worthwhile. Truth be told, I don't see how having it as a movie, or music player makes it worthwhile. I want the games, not the gimmicky extra uses. Now you see, UMDs are a "lame gimmick" in my books, as is having to rely on it's other so-called strengths of being able to play MP3s from a memory card. I mean, I might get a PSP, but it's going to be a loooooong while before I even think of doing so.
The touch screen is HARDLY a lame gimmick. I own a DS myself, and I've come to appreciate the touch screen. If you ask me, it provides the most accurate mechanics for an FPS this side of a PC mouse and keyboard. Let's see here, not only that, the awesome games are starting to come, aside from Nintendogs, there's also Advance Wars DS, Meteos, Nanostray, Yu-Gi-Oh Nightmare Troubadour (which is a rockin' game), and coming soon Lunar Dragon Song, Castlevania, and a whole bunch more that catch my interest. Much more than I can say about the PSP's line-up. There's just nothing that excites me about it whatsoever.
GT4? Been there, done that, superb game. GTA? Puh-frigging-lease! What else? PoPoLoCrois? Hmmmm...an RPG, and I love RPGs. That's a maybe there. FF7 Crisis Core? What's with all the spin-offs all of a sudden? I dunno man, as I said, nothing has made me jump up and say "I MUST HAVE A PSP NOW!" I am sure it'll happen in due time, but right now, I don't see myself owning one. Especially not at 250 bucks for it.

Kajar Laboratories / Audition Thread for CT Flash Series
« on: September 09, 2005, 02:20:20 am »
I would try to send something, as I am very interested in auditioning for Magus. But unfortunately, it seems my PC microphone has broken entirely. Hopefully the role isn't entirely taken yet, because I am going to see if I can find a mic for myself soon so I can give it a shot.

I somehow don't see Sony coming out on top like they did the last generation, and the current one. Something tells me the exhorbitant pricing on the system itself. I don't know about you guys, but I'm not going to spend 500 bucks on a stinkin' console, regardless of HOW powerful it is.

Other Topics and the Prerelease / Singing Mountain
« on: September 09, 2005, 01:38:58 am »
It truly was a shame that "Singing Mountain" was cut, in my books it is a a powerful song, that if done right, could've had a killer heavy-metal rendition of it. I'm actually thinking that if I ever get a band going (I'm a bassist who has not had motivation to practice for the longest time), I'd probably be trying to do a heavy metal rendition of the song. First though, I gotta get my skills up to par again before I consider it.
But yeah, it's a shame that Singing Mountain was cut, I am absolutely certain that it would've rocked. And yeah, I think it probably would've been the maze that you go through when you first come to 65,000,000 B.C. It probably would've been a much better maze to go through in my books, complete with 1000% better music. Yes, I think Singing Mountain was that damn good, and it is a shame that it wasn't used in the game itself. But ah well, maybe if Square remakes Chrono Trigger for a handheld, they'll include all the cut areas from within the game.

Now seriously, how the heck is Nintendo selling Rare a dumb move? Man, am I seriously the only one who noticed that the quality of Rare's games took a dramatic turn for the worse after the SNES? And not only that, the release dates keep getting pushed back further and further? I sincerely think Nintendo did the right thing by getting rid of this trash company. Seriously, they've released, what? Two (count 'em, TWO!) games for the X-Box since they were purchased. And while I am sure there are going to be some Rare games for the 360, I am not impressed with what I've seen at all thus far. Seriously, in my books, selling Rare was a brilliant move.
To the one who also says the PSP is better than the DS? In terms of graphics, without a doubt, but in terms of games? Uh uh, the games are sorely lacking, and nothing has made me jump out of my pants and say "I MUST HAVE THE PSP NOW!" as of yet. I won't be getting one for a long while.
Yes, Nintendo might have their heads up their asses at times, but they're a smart company, and more often than not, I find myself agreeing with what they say. Not only that, their stamp of quality and first and second party support has produced some of the best games this generation has had to offer. Seriously, I think Square-Enix is starting to warm up to Nintendo again, at least slightly anyway, which is a good thing. It means that the Revolution won't be so RPG deprived like the previous two consoles kinda were, with the N64 being much more deprived than the Cube was.
I do think that the Rev might end up supporting HD later in it's life, but then again, I don't have an HDTV just yet, so I could care less about HD support just yet. I am actually doubtful about purchasing either the 360, or PS3, but I know for a fact that I am getting a Revolution. That says something to me, I'm just not impressed with tech specs anymore, and am more about "OK, where are the games?" Wherever the good games are, I'll be there. And I have a hunch that Nintendo is going to be the one who brings the truly good games next gen, including all the 2-D games as well.

Kajar Laboratories / Chrono Crisis Discussion
« on: September 08, 2005, 01:29:50 am »
The game looks promising thus far. I'd like to see it in it's final form. I'm also curious about how the soundtrack is going to sound. Will there be any songs that we recognize from CT at all? I'd love to hear a remix of "Singing Mountain" now that I've heard this track in it's full-on glory. I could actually imagine a heavy metal remix of that song, oh dear God would it ever sound awesome.

Hey, if the games are like .50 to 2.00 a download, then why complain? I would gladly pay that much, if not more, to download some of my all-time favorite games from the SNES days. Hell, I would be happy as hell if Square-Enix decided to allow us to download all of their SNES games, meaning all of them produced by Square, and all of them produced by Enix when they were separate companies, meaning we could see some great games available like ActRaiser, Secret of Mana, Ogre Battle, Tactics Ogre, and a bunch of others that I am sure never got released here. I think it would be great to see the SNES version of Tactics Ogre translated into English for a change with a better script than the PSOne version. Oh, and of course, can't forget Chrono Trigger, even though I own the FFChronicles version of the game, I'd still love to be able to play the original without a hitch.

Kajar Laboratories / My Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross game.
« on: August 28, 2005, 02:45:16 am »
Not if you give it some thought, I think one half of the game should consist of playing Crono, and how he and Nadia conceived a son, and all of the events that lead up to the war before Porre was invaded, including Lucca's untimely death. Then later on, I think that the timeline should take place shortly after Chrono Cross, with you playing as Chrono's son. Perhaps if this idea doesn't fly with the creator, I'll see if I can at least write a fanfic for it and see if anyone is willing to test the waters with me and convert it to a game.

Hmmm...my my, you move fast. It seems like a good idea to have Crono as the main character at first, but then switch 10 years later to his son in my books, hopefully you'll at least give my idea some thought.

Seems you and I are thinking along the same lines LordChander. I think someone should be manipulating the Lavos Spawns DNA to reproduce into another Lavos or something. Make it a person or an alien of sorts in order to make the player want to kick some serious butt in order to save the world.

General Discussion / Having Problems Accessing Geiger's Crypt
« on: August 27, 2005, 04:10:19 am »
Awesome 
thanks for the info. Hopefully TF 2.0 will be out as soon as Geiger gets a new job. He seems passionate about creating a central code where all Chrono Trigger edits can come together.
