This game is extremely wonderful! Let me start by saying that I have played these games before, and since you could emulate em', you might figure why bother buying? In typical Square fahion the extras are cool, but not worth a purchase, and with a poor ... job in terms of actual production (the load times can be harsh), why bother? Because along with these faults, these 2 games have AWSOME GAMEPLAY & STORYLINES!!!! Throw some wicked cutscenes into the mix and you truly have something special. So in closing I say buy this game. For newbies (to the games) it's awsome, for vets its solid and ... everyone else!!
... and Candy

Okay. Well, neither of the games are actually about ..., but there's some ... in Chrono Trigger. Anyway, it's Chrono Trigger nuff said. But for you ... out there who didn't p-lay it when it first cam out like me, It's a great game. Crono, the hero, goes back in time to save a girl. They are running from a bad guy and they get sent to the future. They find out that an evil (though it's never actually stated that it's sentient) space alien is going to destroy the planet. They then bounce back and forth through time to try and save the world. This is the game that got me started on RPGs. It is the greatest. Even better is the fact that there are all new anime sequences for parts of it, and the new arrangements for some of the music are better than before. A MUST have. Trust Yo. Belie dat.
Very Good Game

These games are really good. Final Fantasy Chronicles has Final Fantasy IV (Final Fantasy II in America)and Chrono Trigger. Final Fantasy IV has been re-done with 3D cinemas. Chrono Trigger is the psx (Playstation)version that was never released in America till now with Anime sceens drawn by Akira Toriyama (The person who wrote Animes like Dragonball Z and DR. Slump). Both games are extremely good and if you want some old school rpg's then i highly suggest you buy this game.
Finally Square listens to it's Fans!

This is a great thing Square has done. It is impossible to find Chrono Trigger anywhere. And Final Fantasy IV (FF2) was and still is one of my personal favorites outta the FF series (Along side Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy VI, and Final Fantasy IX) They have redone almost 85% of the script for FF IV which makes those that have played it before (Like me) Experience the real deepness of the story. The only draw back to this collection is the small loading times in Chrono Trigger. Besides that, this collection is well worth it!! LONG LIVE THE FINAL FANTASY SERIES!!
Great games with a lot of changes

Two of my favorite games final arrive on the more advance system. Alright, Let's talk about games. Boy! what changes they've made for FF4. The dialogs contain a lot of slangs and some curse words; I guess they tried to make it fit todays way of life. Also, items were renamed to match the common names of the current FF Series. For example, Cecil's Armorment used to call Black, now they called them Demons. Nonetheless, This game still rock. As for Chrono Trigger, what can I say, it's nothin' but the best and keeps on ticking.

I am a RPG-er mania. I think all FF(Final Fantasy)game are great. The worst is FF8, but FFChronicles is the best FF, I ever played. Why? Because it's not only have FFIV, it's also have Chrono Trigger. The prequel of Chrono Cross.
Past To The Future...

I really like Final Fantasy games.They are very fun to play and they are a challenge. Final Fantasy IV is my favoritte game. It is also a good buy because you get Chrono Trigger along with it. I hope my review encouraged you to try it out and have as much fun as I do playing this game.
A great re-release collection

As you must already know, this is a re-release of two great games, Chrono Trigger and FFIV. Both are superb and were some of the SNES's best games.When I got my SNES, my first video game system, at the same time the PSone was released (1995) and, despite owning some very nice games- DK Country 1-3, Kirby Games, Mario All-Stars, Mario RPG. I missed out on some great games like these. I soon realized great games that I had missed and wanted to get them back- Zelda, Metroid, FFII-II (or FFIV and FFVI), Mario Kart and so on. I hunted down Zelda (without much difficulty) and am currently searching for Super Metroid. But where were the great Final Fantasies? I found FF Anthology recently at my local Babbages... and bought it to play on my PS2, and there was much rejoicing. Then I saw FF Chronicles. I knew that FFIV would be good and I quickly learned about Chrono Trigger. Both games started trends in RPGs like Multiple Endings, Path Choosing, and Chocobo Riding. I got the game recently and I love both of the classics, and there was more rejoicing. Chrono Trigger looks and plays great, I feel that the game is one of the best ever. I also enjoy the anime scenes as well, I think that the choice to make animated cut-scenes was a better desicion that CGI cut-scenes were, mainly because the scenes are by Dragonball's Akira Toryiama and look great despite some slight choppiness at parts. FFIV is also great and I am hard-pressed when I look at the box which game to play. There are some loading problems, mainly when entering battle and switching to the sub-screen, but since the cartriges cost so much I think that if you look over the old graphics (they were pretty damn good in their day!) and try to ignore the load times, this game is worth it all the way.
About time!

Its about time final fantasy 4 came out for playstation. I love that game. .... But, its coming out with CG movies, and thats awsome! I dont need to rent it, its a sure buy. Anyways, FF4 was the key final fantasy game that got them popular. It was the reason I started to like the Final Fantasy series.
The only thing I could think of that could be wrong with these games is the grafics are super nintendo grafics. It doesnt bother me, i liek the old school graphics, but, it seems to scare off many gamers. Overall this game is fantastic, 2 classic RPGs that started it all.
