I totally agree. One of Square's best. On par with FFVII, in my opinion.

I couldn't get into Chrono Cross until after I beat Chrono Trigger, so CT is better than a game you liked, in that regard. It will be easier to get sucked into the story and like most of the characters.

I'm also playing Radical Dreamers. It's ok. You have to like reading. It's a shame that RD wasn't released here. I was blown away when I learned a Super NES could get on the Internet.
