I just bought CT on Ebay for 35 bucks. That seemed like a fair price since a lot are going for like 50 and even 100. I actually just bought it a few minutes ago, so I have to send the money order out and then wait for it to be shipped.
Let's see how it turns out.

And I bought Final Fantasy 3 yesterday for $25. Is this awesome or what? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Good job on getting the original cartridges and not the hideous PSX re-releases.

No. I am prepared though! I tried to play FF3 today, but my brother was too lazy to hook up the SNES. [img]graemlins/cussing.gif[/img]

Agreed. The PSX releases, although they have new FMVs and such, have horrible loading times. I remember playing the Anthology version of FFVI, and every time I entered a battle, I wasn't sure if the battle was going to load up.

You're in for hours of fun and addiction, Knuxie. =D

Well, it's a good place to start when you are just experiencing RPGs. Just remember, there are better ones out there if you find RPGs to be something you like.

Good deals!

So far I still hold my opinion that CT is a lot better than FFVI.

It's really tough to choose which of the two is better...I think it just depends on your style. Overall I thought CT was better.

I'm still of the opinion the FFVI kicked the hell out of Chrono Trigger, but you're in for a treat with both of them.

Holy shiyat, Knux! Those are the two best games ever, let alone RPGs!Very nice, and have fun with both of them.(SMRPG comes in a Frickin' close 3rd place, though)

FFVI was an awesome game... it's hard to choose between that and CT.

I've got the original CT, and will (hopefully) be purchasing FFVI soon...

FF3 is pretty fun. I have a few questions though.

Do the battles run on a turn based system? I dont think so because I was waiting for one of the bars to recharge (dunno what the thing is) and the enmy kept attacking me and then it would go down so obviously I lost.

When you go to Item and press left and right, you see Def. and Row-what do they mean?

I pretty much suck. I lost when those white bat thingies help you defeat the 6(?) guards. Need more practive, heh.

Def means that character defense for the turn, taking reduced damage. Row mean he switches rows--front to back and vice versa. Back row takes half the damage front row does, but characters there also do half the damage.

For where you are, you need to fight some weak enemies. If you're still running around as Terra then put ehr in the back row and spread your Fire spell with the L/R button.

Actually, the battles are turn-based, but not in the way you expect. When the bar is full, it's that character's turn. It's a time bar. Yes, the enemy does attack you while that bar is recharging.

By the way, those "white bat thingies" are Moogles. =D
