Should I find it so amused that I'm attributed as
Nuke Lassic in the author section? Maybe I should change it to my real name...

Well done. Excellently written, and you're certainly somebody who deserves the honour of having a review presented on the site.
Pity that we European gamers can't get it until early 2009, but that's something I'll have to deal with. Never got to complete the original Chrono Trigger; I believe I was half-an-hour away from the end of the game before my save file was erased on my PC.
Ouch, hard-drives can be flaky like that sometimes. Hurrah for double-back-ups. And much thanks for the words of praise. They mean quite a bit coming from users like you and
SimuLord.

How much would I get if I brought a ratchet set and threatened to use it?
Too far away to counter-attack!

A friend of mine just bought the DS version because he never played the original (Le gasp). I convinced him to buy it, and haven't seen much of him since. I already have the other 2 versions, I might wait a little to pick up a third copy of the same game.
If you already have the Playstation remake, then the only thing you're
really missing out on is the optional dungeon and ending, which is to say you're not missing much. Frankly, save this one for a rainy day. A lot of the original two is what makes this game really shine, so picking up another copy isn't necessary unless you really, really want to play through the optional stuff.
This review was, admittedly, geared toward people who wanted to re-live some nostalgia, and brand new players. Not so much for seasoned vets.
