I didn't have anything else to write about at the moment, as most of my writing inspirations are at home in the Philippines, so I decided to write about something I still have around... videogames!!!

Here's a poem about what I consider to be one of the greatest stories in RPG history... Chrono Trigger. (currently playing the sequel, Chrono Cross after waiting three long years. The plot is very intriguing!)

*ahem* With no futher ado... an Ode to Chrono Trigger.

Wonderful epic for the bookish crowd

Who also love to play tactics

On the net we love to praise you aloud

Its clear we're a bunch of fanatics

For your wonderful story is, we find

Something way better than what we read in a novel

Your plot simply loves to mess with the mind

To your authors we'd love to bow down and grovel

The number of endings you have still surprises

But considering you deal with various dimensions

I think this large number completely suffices

And I think that was the writer's intentions

Your notes on time travel was great for the story

The detail put in still astound

And what I find to be your crowning glory

As the mind games it made in my head still abound

So great game I bow down to you

May your pixelled saga live on forever

May Square may a new sequel too

Though that, my friends would be a real great endeavor*

This is not really in the proper ode form (I think... but I like the word ode, so yeah... xD)

*As for the last line, the amount of work put into the second game, Chrono Cross was so great that writing the plot for another sequel would require the most brilliant minds on Earth. ^^

chrono trigger is fucking AWESOME
