This is not new news, but it may be new news to some of you out there.

A couple years back 5 people decided to make an open source game using the Unreal Tournament 2004 engine. This game that they wanted to make, was in fact a remake of Chrono Trigger, you know, the other great RPG series that Square has (besides FF, and DQ). Any how after a couple years of development, Square sent the 5 open source workers a letter to tell them to either quit production on their remake, or be sued. Of course like any other sane, middle class person they made the decision to not go against Squeenix.

We still have a chance to get this game to the fans and all it takes is thirty seconds of your time to "sign" this growing petition.

If you would like to see what you are supporting, you can watch the trailer for this work of art.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Perhaps nothing will come of it. But also if people sit back and do nothing, then nothing will change for sure.

Secondly I never said that everyone HAD to sign, I know that everyone has different opinions and tastes, for example you didn't like FFVIII and I think that 8 has been the best one in the series.

As for whether or not Square has any plans to do anything with the Chrono series or not is something I don't know much about and would be happy to hear more on the topic when the news arises.

What are you talking about? The art style is quite good as well as the lighting effects and everything else. It's not supposed to look realistic, it's supposed to look somewhat like DQ8 which is what CT was meant to look like from the beginning.

Also so what if Square looses their copyright, not like they were going to do anything with it anyway.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Dark your theory as to the inner working of SE could be true, because I know when I heard the announcement of the sequel to Valkyrie Profile I was at first really excited, then I thought, "Why would they pick that game to do a pre-sequel to? It was great, but how many people really played it?"

Really I thought that they would do a new chrono title rather then another Profile game.

And then you have the other side that's pumping out 2 new FFVII games (which are at least maintaining a great story).

I don't think the original team that made the first Musashi game made the Samurai Legend Musashi for the PS2 last year, so I don't think that something like that would stop the profit side of Square from stopping such a project.

Then again it might have been the same team... I don't know.

I was speaking idiomatically.
