I wasn't going to start back up with my writing quite yet, but this got me all excited! Well, sort of. Square-Enix have announced that Chrono Trigger is coming to the DS. When I saw that subject line in my inbox, the first thing I thought was a Final Fantasy III/IV style remake. Alas, I was wrong. It is just a port that supports dual screens. It seems that the only new addtion(s) to the game will be a "brand new dungeon and a Wireless Play mode." I have no clue what the Wireless Play mode will do, but it will be interesting (I hope) to see what it turns out to be. Anyways, I love this game, but chances are very good I won't buy it and just continue to whip out my old SNES cart or PS1 version of it whenever I want to play. So there you have it. Will you buy it when it becomes available this holiday season? I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who has never played it before or doesn't already have a copy of it. This classic, at least in my mind, can still give a lot of the RPGs of this generation a good run for their money. By the way, in case you want all the dirty details, make the jump. Otherwise, take a trip to the Chrono Trigger DS website to stare at a clock (which really does tell the time) and some rotating gears. It's a damn shame the legal team at Square-Enix put a stop to the Chrono Trigger Resurrection project....
