Title: Best idea for a Chrono spin-off game?
Post by: LuccaFan on August 05, 2008, 07:45:39 pm
So which of these games do you think would be the best spin-off game for the Chrono series?  A law-themed text adventure in Pierre: Ace Attorney!; a high-speed action platformer in Lightspeed the Lavos; a rea-time strategy with all the beasts from the chronoverse in ChronoCraft; or the Puzzle/FPS (Time) Portal?  Or perhaps, you can think of a better one?  Please share!

While you got it half-right w/Square & Capcom...I want a Square-Enix vs Capcom fighting game. Then we'll get to see Team Ryu (Street Fighter & Breath of Fire) vs Team Spiky Hairdos (Crono & Cloud)~!!

If not, then an in-company crossover with Chrono & Star Ocean. They both kinda sound like they're headed in similar directions, I suppose...

Lavos=Computer/Space Virus!!! Then we could tie in Capcom's current Megaman series, Star Force! >_<

Chrono Ocean Force! >_>

As much as I would love to see a Valve-created Chrono "spin-off", the transition into FPS would be near-impossible to pull off.  That would be my first choice, but I instead chose the Blizzard option, simply because the ability to craft a campaign-based strategy and/or Chronoverse MMORPG seems potentially viable.

Pierre Ace Attorney.  I'd buy it for sure.

What about a Square & Maxis joint effort? Sim Time seems like a fun game.

"I am GOD OF TIME!" Begins screw with the time stream. Soon all time periods become one! Chaos and Madness ensue and reality crumbles! "Hehehehehehehe! All bow to the GOD OF TIME!...and basicly taht's how I play Sim Games...as if I'm a malvolent god whos only desire is to see my subjects suffer under cruel tyranny! Arn't I sweet!"

Make a spin-off where you guide Lavos Spawn to new worlds! You can also help decide what DNA aspects are best for you little Lavos Spawns! Awwwwww! Screw Nintendogs! Nintendvoids: Raise your own Lavos!

Pierre: Ace Attorney! would be awesome.

"OBJECTION!

He found her kitty, see? See!? He has good character! He's innocent! Even though the kitty has nothing to do with this case, he's INNOCENT I say!"

Chrono Crossing...

(Animal Crossing)

Or Dragon Moon? 

(Harvest Moon)
Title: Re: Best idea for a Chrono spin-off game?

Or Dragon Moon? 

(Harvest Moon)

Well, probably "Chrono Moon" or "Harvest Trigger" or something like that. But I could definitely see potential. Experience life on the farm as you grow crops and manage your livestock. Collect milk from cows, time eggs from Chickens, and Frozen Flames from Lavoids. And, of course, getting married to one of ten available bachelorettes (and 5 bachelors, using the special friend system). Also includes Epoch racing and mining for fish.

Chrono Trigger/Cross in the same vain of Black Isle Studio Games, e.g. Fallout, Torment

A Chronout/Falloss would probably work as Fallout was post-apocolyptic...so it would have to be set in the ruined 2300ad future of Chrono.

Tormented Chrono would be probably best fit in a dirty 600ad era or post-2300ad, when humanity starts up again.

I would pay for a Chrono game in that style, for sure.

Magus & maybe Lucca in a new Devil May Cry...I only include Lucca really because she uses a gun...

How about CT characters in one of them DBZ fighting games? I know it'd fuel the lame "OMG! Crono is Goku!" crapola, but that's gonna happen anyways, might as well have 'em look cool in a neat new genre game while it happens...

Well, we have Chrono Cross and Motocross. Obviously, the two need to be joined. The cast of Chrono Trigger/Cross face off in a no-holds race across rugged landscapes.

I've been saying it since I joined the Compendium, Dirge of Magus would (unfortunately?) work.

I voted for Pierre: Ace Attorney, since I'm a Gyakuten Saiban nut.

(Time) portal, talk about a huge mindfuck.

It could take place in Chronopolis and have FATE talk to you the whole time.

The Frozen Flame is a lie.

"Eat my dust, Sir Slush!"

(Time) Portal would be incredibly spiffy...but who would be the main character? It could be Schala, wandering around after being rescued, I suppose...or it could be a random Cross character that needs more development (99% of the playable cast).

God I miss Cross . . . not sure where my copy is but both of my PS2 (slim and, not so slim) got destroyed . . . I could prolly fix em if I wanted too.

For the record, there are tons of random choices to make, but I didn't pick other ;-) I voted (time) portal.

I agree. Knuckles would be better as Frog, while Tails would have to be a male version of Lucca.

Crono - Sonic
Marle - Amy
Lucca (Lucas?) - Tails
Robo - E-102 Gamma?
Frog - Knuckles
Ayla - Rouge? Blaze?
Magus - Shadow

Tikal could be Schala, probably. Robotnik as Dalton (lol).

But perhaps I went a little overboard. Oh well, it was diverting.

Either Square & Nintendo with The Legend of Zelda: Heroes of time Where you go back and forth between playing Link Young Link and Crono to Save the world From Zeal and Gannondorf using the Time portals and Master sword pedistal to travle through time with out Navi (if she is there then she is not Annoying you to hell and back(Crono would just gag her any ways and throw her over a cliff with her being straped to a rock.))

The other is Square & Atari Because they still own the rights to The DBZ games. it would be DragonBall Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4 with Crono and Magus appearing in what if stories where they beat the shit out of Brolly
Of course they would a pain in the ass to unlock to use because you would have to beat them as they are on a team fighting obviously some super Sayain. and when you unlock them they can kick everyone's ass except Bardock and Teen SSj2 Gohan( the guy can kick you in half)

Not a spin-off idea, but how about Johnny as a crossover character in a new F-Zero? I'd buy the game to fucking play as him.
