On a whim, I launched this on my PS Vita the other night, and after getting through the lousy demo opening, I was struck by the gorgeous scenery of the island village. I don't remember being that impressed with it the first time I saw it, but then again, I first played it on a PlayStation 2. Seriously, apart from the lame dungeon nonsense at the beginning, this is as perfect as a JRPG opening can get. Surrounded by such lush beauty, paired with the amazing village BGM, and like magic, I'm there.
Chrono Cross's opening moments are such a powerful refutation of the supposed superiority of SFC JRPGs that I can't see how anyone could seriously hold to such a position.
Small aside, I wonder if this game had any influence on Monster Hunter.
