Why is it Chrono Trigger? Because it's Final Fantasy VI. :P

Frog's Theme slaps. Honestly, the whole soundtrack for this game is incredible.

I know this makes me sound basic but I think Final Fantasy VII is the best, and that's coming from someone who doesn't have nostalgia for it. I played it for the first time a couple years ago and I loved it. I think it has aged incredibly well, particularly because of the materia system and the music.

Surprised no one has mentioned Xenogears, the story is amazingly deep. So yeah not CT but gears is ONE OF the greatest JRPGs of all time
