Cómo se construye este ranking
- Los juegos se clasifican por la nota agregada de la crítica sobre 100 importada de IGDB y Metacritic, nunca por las notas propias de Tier.
- Un juego solo entra en el ranking a partir de 80 valoraciones externas, para que una única crítica entusiasta nunca supere a un clásico consolidado.
- Cada juego se clasifica en un único género, el que mejor lo define, de modo que un mismo título nunca encabeza dos rankings de géneros distintos.
- Las notas de la comunidad, de F a S, aparecen junto a cada juego y solo se afirman como un hecho por encima de 5 valoraciones en Tier.
- Periodo de lanzamiento cubierto: de 1970 a 2026.
- 11 juegos aparecen en esta página, con 4,798 valoraciones en total.
- Los rankings se recalculan cada hora; este se reconstruyó el 29 septiembre 2026.

Chrono Cross
CHRONO CROSS, the sequel to the SNES favorite CHRONO TRIGGER, is one of the most ambitious role-playing games ever made. There are over 40 playable characters, each with their back-story, special moves, abilities, and weapons. The story spans two discs and follows the story of Serge, a young man who is able to cross dimensions. Suddenly he is pulled between worlds, trying to figure out his own past at the same time. The graphics are bright and beautiful, utilizing the PlayStation's capabilities to the fullest. The polygonal character models are huge and detailed, and the pre-rendered backgrounds are immaculately detailed. The music is composed and arranged by Yasunori Mitsuda, and features very realistic-sounding synthesizers. The battle system revolves around Elements, which are used to grant magical powers, as well as to summon huge monsters. For anyone that wanted to see the story of CHRONO TRIGGER continue, this is your chance.
