Gabe over at Penny Arcade emailed him about their Child's Play thing.

Jack actually CALLED Gabe and yelled at him.

Yes. That doesn't mean I didn't lose brain cells reading that POS.

I've got some brain cells to spare!

Ctr alt del had a good comic about it though.

You... Just CAN'T kill the snowblower. I tried pulling some ninja shit, I tried bum rush, I tried swapping out to keep the damage up... It. Won't. Die.

If you could split them up, maybe, but the hardest part is all 3 units need to stay together, so most strategy is hindered...

Whoever posted that CT -> CC conversion fanfic link, I thank you. That was quite possibly one of the best fanfics I have ever read.

As good as is possible with the material it has to work with on the latter end. TO be any better, it'd have had to rewritten the plot of CC.

I honestly don't think I would've minded that, meself. But that's just me. >.> I still hate Chrono Cross, and I still believe that Magus, the real Magus, should've been present.

I dunno, I used to hate guile, but now with this I think I might be able to stand using him.

Guile is not Magus. I can see where they're coming from with the story but still...Guile is not Magus. Everything that made Magus such an incredible character is completely absent in Guile. Guile is just a creepy man wearing a mask.

Personally, that's the one part I didn't like about the fanfic, that they found a way to turn Magus into Guile, rather than going with Square's word that Guile is not Magus. I don't like seeing Magus as that...geek.

I agree. I see the fanfic as tolerable instead of good, as it relys on the horrible plotline of CC.
I would be vaugely able to stand using Guile now, if I could stand playing the game again. Which I can't.

Edit: WHat I see wrong with the fanfic is the whole "everyone and everything from the GOOD half of the source dies/is destroyed".

But CC is what happened when Chrono split the future into the dino and human strands...

Edit: So CC is dependant on CT.
