Rate the Game: Week 39
Another week down. I factored in my rating of 3 when calculating the overall score for last week's arcade classic, Pac-Man. The little yellow bastard still has some love going for him even after all of these years. I wonder how Ms. Pac-Man would fare. A question for another time as we update the leaderboard with Pac-Man's average rating of 3.125. Here's how things stand now:

Your game to rate this week is the RPG Chrono Trigger (SNES)! I think this is the first RPG we've had in a long time. Well let us know how it fared with you! Rate in good health and take care until next week! |
Easy 5 for me. One of the most memorable RPG's I've ever played. The music, story, multiple endings and chance to take on Lavos at the very start of the game was some crazy shit.
Played that for AGGGGEEEEESSSSS. Would buy again. |
Haven’t played it
|
Never finished it, been meaning to start it up

My favorite hip hop duo samples it in one of their hits. The song starts with it, can't miss it

♫
My name is Goto I have 14 points Beat me Up And win the G1 Climax ♫ |
still irritated I can't call out/dox whoever voted the game bad.
|
Definitely a 5, absolute masterpiece, one of the crown jewels of the SNES alongside Final Fantasy 6 (3 in the United States of America). One of the games that got me into RPGs in the first place.
Man, this just makes me wanna go play it now. Shame I lost my SNES and original SNES cartridge during the hurricane. |
5. Best game ever made. Would give it a 6 if possible just to differentiate it from any other games that get rated 5. My biggest gaming wish for like 20 years now is for this series to get another entry. Hell a remake of the original would be incredible. I have pretty much every version of this game ever released in the states and wpuld buy it again if they rerererereleased it for the new systems. Seriously. Goat.
|
The posters who rated it a 1 or a 2 should be banned forever.

I remember the re-release on playstation. It was cool because I got to see the animated cutscenes. The fucking pause before every fight loaded was super annoying though. Played Chrono Cross too, but it didn't even feel like it was in the same family of games. Maybe it wasn't, I dunno. |
it is. its pretty cool if you get into the lore.

No, I know it is (am old, memory fading). They directly reference cast members from Chrono Trigger. It was probably just more of "Chrono Trigger was so epic" in my brain that they felt worlds apart. I'd love to play it again TBH. The thing that sticks out most was fighting some dragon down in an ice cave or something? I dunno, was a very, very long time ago. |
I gave it a 2.
Because I love Subway. Eat Fresh Motherfuckers. |
What's your go to Subway order? It's important that we humanize this atrocity.
|
Well you could move my vote to the never played it. I really only played it for about a hour, RPGs just never were my thing and I only played it just to admire Toyiyamis artwork.
|
Sometimes it Meatballs with American cheese on white bread.
Sometimes it's Chicken Bacon Ranch on White bread with pepper jack. Never is it Tuna. |
Cold Cut Combo with Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, and topped with mustard and mayo is my go-to for Subway. I actually feel kind of bad designating it as the '2' but, oh, well.
|
Addendum: I'm looking to get this back on track tomorrow. Life happens and sometimes it decides to be a jackass.

i dont see why not

I'd like to be able to do it retroactively. I really want to know who helped push Soul Reaver so far down the list. :mad:
|
can I vote this a 5 since it is probably the most perfect game ever made

hell yeah, the champ is here

I should probably clarify: the poll itself is obviously closed so you can't use it so just post what your score would have been.
|
Absolutely a 5. There is not a single flaw within this game. Storytelling, characters, soundtrack, the gameplay, everything. It's the only title across any medium I've played/watched that does the whole time-travel thing well and doesn't fuck it up. Some would argue that it's a bit on the short/easy side; I would counter that it simply respects your time and doesn't require you to waste hours grinding just to pass some hurdle of a boss and lets you carry on through its excellent story.
Absolute 5/5 gem of a game |
Chrono cross was right up there with this game
|
Please tell me you did not posthumously bump this to spread such heresy. Chrono Trigger is miles ahead of Chrono Cross
|
I did.
