Speedrun Pages Finished; Monolith Soft Buyout
« on: May 06, 2007, 02:22:17 am »
I may have another update coming soon, but I need to get these off my chest. Firstly, the Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross speedrun pages are both finished thanks to the help of inichi and Molotov, respectively. If you want to know the secrets of blazing through Trigger in three and a half hours, or through Chrono Cross in a few minutes over seven hours, check them out. There's also some neat game play information and techniques; it's a refreshingly new experience if you've never seen this type of thing before. [ Chrono Trigger Page - Chrono Cross Page ] Secondly, Gamehiker has brought it to our sheltered attention that Monolith Soft was recently bought out by Nintendo, which now owns 80% of the company. As you know, Nintendo and Square have been working together to release Final Fantasy spinoffs and ports / remakes. Don't get hasty, but cross your fingers; Monolith Soft still retains some members of the Chrono Cross team, and perhaps Square will shoot a Chrono idea Nintendo's way. With Masato Kato involved with both companies, we can't lose.

Nice stuff...these pages are intriguing, and could be a worthy guide for those interested in trying speed runs. While I myself have neither the patience nor the interest in actually doing a speed run, I am always interested in hearing about other's speed runs.

And as for Monolith Soft...well, let's hope, shall we?

We have Kato again, all that matters.

Now we have double the chances of sequel/remake. I have seen enough friggin Final Fantasy remakes. I am sure most will agree that we need a Chrono. At leeeeaaaassst Trigger, I always thought it was better than Cross.

Cross was so dang confusing....

What's your point? With only 3 lone games in this small series, it doesn't mean much if one game is better than the other or the others. It's almost a given.
