I'd buy a 360 for a Chrono sequel.

I'm planning on buying one eventually, but this would certainly make me pick up the pace.

This is the best news(I mean, more like, the only news I care about) in regards to the 360 since it's release. I don't know how they'd manage to pull this off but it'll force me to buy a 360 if it happens.

If it's an April Fools joke, then whatever. I'm happy to enjoy the current Chrono games again. But like the site says, it's only a rumour as such.

The piss poor Japanese sales say otherwise:

March 20 - 26, 2006
Nintendo DS Lite - 119,986
Nintendo DS - 39,307
PS2 - 34,169
PSP - 31,077
Game Boy Advance SP - 5,627
Game Boy Micro - 4,883
GameCube - 1,458
X360 - 1,415
Xbox - 117
Game Boy Advance - 98

I really hope this is an April Fools joke because there's no reason any person with any respect for themselves as gamers should own a 360.

Still... what is up with the title. Chrono Grance? What the hell is a Grance? I liked Chrono Break better.

So? the 360 hasn't even been out for 6 months nor produced a title that the japanese will go crazy after and that is why i said it is slowly picking up steam. The japanese treat Sakaguchi like a god and if his games come out to good reviews as well as various other games, the 360 will have a boost in sales. The 360 just needs some strong rpgs and it will sell well in japan, as the japanese are rpg crazy.

Having been someone who grew up in japan, new consoles from companys that aren't nintendo and recently sony don't do well at launch. The original psx didn't pick up much steam in japan nor the U.S until FFVII and the same thing is most likely going to happen with the 360.

Most of the games out for the 360 are not games the japanese are really into which are FPS and generally racers. When the RPG's start flowing, so well the 360 sales in japan.

sprouticus: Any gamer who truly appreciates games for what they are don't get all fanboyish about systems. Each console is unique in it's own way and has plenty to offer to the consumer. Take the fanboyish crap elsewere.

One, it says rumor.

Two, mucknuggle, you need to calm the fuck down, not sketch because you for some reason needed to post three times that basically said the same thing. Anyone with common sense would see what megalith said. Its all about brand, japs will buy it based on brandname as they do with Tecmo and Namco games. Not to mention Microsoft can get anything on their system if they really want it.

Three, spouticus shows his gayness once again as Iwata pointed out.

And I can expect you guys to reply back with nonsense so have at it.

OK... Square-Enix and X360? USA? Chrono? No no no it CAN'T Be true. IF there would ever be sequel of Chrono games it would be on PS3 NO X360. Yeah it would be nice to see next Chrono BUT on SONY console that I'll buy in future not M$ X360.

What's with people writing Microsoft with a dollar sign? It's because they make money like you, me and everyone else on this planet?

Not to mention the fact that the person who did that is a sony fanboy. Sony is far more frugal and cheaper when it comes to money then microsoft ever will be.

Geez, I still can't believe how people are taking sides of companies like it's a war or something. They take it way too seriously.

You make enough good games, you have a good price for your system and I'll buy your shit. Even if you're console is called 'The Crap Maker'.

No it's cause they get all the best titles with cash not with interesting game system =) I like SONY and like MS but games created on SONY first should stay there OR be multiplatform.

Yeah, I wonder how Sony gets most of their big franchises too.

Are you for real?

Scary, ain't it?

I, for one, am not hoping for a Chrono sequel. I really liked CC's story and I figure that it's over and put to rest. To reopen it and fuck with it would be a huge shame.

Ok ok HALO 2 only game that was made ONLY for Xbox =). DOA you say? Well yeah they got it from Dreamcast and dressed in new engine I have to say that those two games would be only reason I'll buy X360.

I'm not saying Xbox SUX but think... why would Square-Enix release one of the best RPG ever made sequel on console that don't even know what this game is? IF it will be released on PS3 to I don't mind but there is no other option.

Let's break it down before my bedtime...

Halo 2 is the only game developped for Xbox? Wha?

DOA's life: Arcade ) PSone ) Dreamcast ) PS2 ) XBox ) Xbox 360 ) The Future

Not trying to make fun of your English, but you've lost me.

Good Night.

Ok
It's not the only game. I just see more potencial games to play on PS2 and/or PS3. It depends on what you like.
I know but you see how Xbox made DOA it's own game and only for Xbox. They just bought it as an exclusive. Why didn't they make one for them self? They just buy games from other systems. It's ok cause they made damn good job with DOA tune up.
Sorry was thinking about 3 things at once. I say it's like making a 3rd part of the game for system that don't even have first two. I know that this is not game like LoTR that every part connect with each other but they mix somehow and you know it if you finished both.

It's like Shenmue. They made 2nd one on Xbox and put 1st Shenmue movie in to it. This is how it should be? Games should stay on the right platform till the end.
Sleep Well

so under this logic, no square game should ever be developed for anything but nintendo consoles.

eh, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. ok, you're dumb.

Squarenix isn't owned by sony either, so why doesn't sony make all it's own games? Your argument is stupid. I mean we all know final fantasy and the Chrono series started out on the SFC, all sony did was buy the games isn't that right?

Learn the history of the games your talking about before you open your godamn mouth or you just come off sounding like an ignorant tool.

Have the Polish always been this aggrivating? I guess the Nazis had a good reason to invade. =\

Disregard Steel Battalion, Toejam and Earl III, Ninja Gaiden, MechAssault, Unreal Championship, Kakuto Chojin, Shenmue 2, House of the Dead 3, NBA Inside Drive 2003, Transworld Snowboarding, Fusion Frenzy and a fucking endless list of "only on xbox" titles.

If they can dish out mediocre shit like Chrono Cross then why even doubt their possibilities. There are unlikely things that Square-Enix will do, but in all honesty I think the amount of time and effort you've been putting into Final Fantasy XII has gone to your head.

That is basically the only site that has the title Chrono Grance while other sites dont even talk about it. Not to get in anyone else's argument, but its pretty much a fake. It wouldn't be so bad if square made a game for xbox though. Ps2 is getting all the good games.

I need to calm the fuck down? Ok BZ. Because I'm the one that freaked out because of a comment that somebody else made. X-Box fanboys coming after me like wut.

What is SFC?

Super Famicom, i.e. SNES.
