No. I'm saying Chrono Trigger isn't a franchise. The franchise is called Chrono. It would be like calling it The Secret of Mana franchise, or whatever game came first.

Eh, CT has that crappy OVA so it technically can be considered a franchise to itself <_<


We did get a nice vocal version of Gato's theme at least.

So this is an argument over semantics, not the fact that the "Chrono" series is indeed a series.

I guess Chrono Cross isn't part of the series either then, and Chrono Trigger didn't even exist at all until the DS version

the poll was naming individual games that started franchises, though it's only apparent with CT

also, secret of mana = seiken densetsu 2 so it's the seiken densetsu series

blame marketing wanting to name the first game Final Fantasy Adventures for breaking the naming conventions that confuse you so much

All Star Ocean games except the GBC one have had international releases. That's four games, more than the Chrono series.

Except, you know, the SNES one, which is exactly what the poll is referring to. If he's going to say Radical Dreamers doesn't count, then neither should Star Ocean. And a remake down the road for a completely different system doesn't count.

no it isn't, because the poll is asking about franchises, not games. the SNES Mario Kart is called Super Mario Kart btw.

What else would they f***** consider?

Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross are both top 10 games of all time. Chrono series the only answer, unless you feel two games isn't enough,

both chrono games are great but because it is just two games it's hard to say it's the best franchise. but on the other hand, because they quit while they were ahead, you never saw it jump the shark and die an embarrassing death like final fantasy, sonic, metroid, silent hill etc

Isn't a franchise just a product?

When was it established that you need two games to be a franchise anyway?
