If you remember, long ago I made a topic with the games I had available, and asking the order in which I should play them. In reality, I never got round to playing Chrono Cross, and now, checking my old pile of PSX games, I found it yet again.
I am as far as Another World's Termina right now, about to head to Viper Manor with Guile. Last time I played, I had got as far as meeting Harle(or Luccia...I don't remember which one came later) for the first time(So yes, I know about the whole two-dimensions thing).
Any tips or anything?

No, I wish i did have that game. But it's only available in middle-of-nowhere stores in the South-American jungle now.

Actually, I bought it about 6 years ago. So, it's not even available here either, most likely.

it's only like 20 dollars on amazon. It's on my list of games to someday repurchase.
It's a good one, even if 70% of the characters were worthless throw-aways.
Did you get the dog and the redhead already? They're fairly helpful early game, but it takes some work to get them early. I think you might be able to get Mojo soon... or have missed him. It's been years...

Poshul and Mojo are in my party, yes. I remembered having got Mojo by accident long ago, and I got him again, remembering what I had to do. Red head? If you mean Lenna, yes, I do have her. Also, I chose Glenn over Kid. Does that make me an ass?

Nope, I love Glenn too. Besides, since you get Kidd later you are basically picking Glenn over Korcha, and that sounds good to me.

I have Sprigg and Harle in my party now. Of course you know what that means. Currently outside Hydra Marshes.

I remember this old game, played it five times through and got the best characters on a list, Serge Kid Glenn Norris Karsh Zoah Fargus Sprigg Draggy Starky Doc, those were the characters that turned out best for me. Ah, a team of entire white(Serge Starky Doc) I remember the times I died well. The first time I defeated the final boss was with Serge Glenn and Doc.

Doc just seems so...weak for me now. He even seemed weak the very moment I got him(I'm talking purely stat-wise). Plus, I like Kid's stealing ability.

I can't even remember Doc...
I used these characters (as far as I remember) Serge, Kidd, Glenn (who is worth going out of the way for, he gets one of the best weapons in the game, duel magic swords ftw!), Norris, Pip, and I think that's about it, really. I might have used Draggy. I know I used the painter with the boomerang, whose name escapes me now.
I always found it best to have a mixed party. One white or black. One green or yellow. And one Red or blue.
My friend used to use Mojo ... a lot...

I used Guile alot just for him being reincarnated Magus.
Little Known Fact:
If Guile leads your party when you approach the frozen flame before you fight the final dragon he says something to the effect of.
Guile: "No...that isn't who I am, I refuse to believe it!"

"Doc joined your party, dude!". Gotta love those quotes(another that comes to mind is "Draggy joinnned yourrr parrrty!" XD)
The developers themselves said Guile isn't Magus. He was gonna be Magus in the original CC, but he's not. He's one of my main guys, though. ^_^
While I don't have all the characters yet, my party consists(and will consist) of Serge(unless he remains this way till the end...? Don't spoil!), Kid, Magus, Glenn(he even looks like CT's Glenn...simply awesome), Norris, Pip(why is he so damned strong? He does almost the same damage as Serge every single time!), and Lenna(simply feels right to have her in the party).

Pip's freaky stuff, ain't he? I used him on my first playthrough till I got Norris.
Never cared much for Guile/Magus myself...
