Chrono Trigger DS, Square's 2nd best after FFVI Options

[Knightsword]

A bref overview.

The DS version of Chrono Trigger was released yesterday. Some places you get a bonus cd, others a poster. This version takes the best from both the SNES (speed/no loading/etc) and the PS1 (The animated cutsceens, music and monster libraries/etc) and adds DS upgrades.

First off you can choose to play it in classic mode which is just like the old CT you remember and the touch screen will just maps and info.

Then there is the DS mode, The top screen is the game sans menus and clutter and is on the touch screen instead, you can access each menu fuction by touch and use the stylus to move the characters. Yet unlike most stylus DS games you still retain the ability to control via the buttons as normal.

Graphics and sound are still the same though, but why change when theres no need too.
There is quite a lot of new stuff as well, a new ending, dungeon, and more.

If you have a DS and bearly even like JRPGS, this is one of the best and should be owned.
