Ode to Chronotrigger
untitled
I shouldn't post this poem because it will reveal how much of a nerd I am. But I am doing it anyway.
This poem is about Chronotrigger, a RPG for the SNES, and my favorite video game... I like this game sooooooooo much that I made a costume of the main character, Crono... Picture of him can be found here [en.wikipedia.org]... I wore this costume to school on Halloween one year and nobody knew who I was... This angered me, so I wrote a poem detailing how awesome this game was...
If you have never heard of Chronotrigger, you can check the Wikipedia article on it here [en.wikipedia.org], but read the poem first... =)

Ode to Chronotrigger
Chronotrigger, Oh, Chronotrigger, you rock my socks
Better than any game that will ever come out on X-Box
Traveling through time, and saving the earth
From the desolate future back to Lavos’ birth
It is definitely the best RPG ever made
A million times better than my humble accolade
The plot is amazing, the characters great
And Crono, our hero, is simply first rate
With a simple blue gi and amazing spiky hair
He will kick your ass with his impressive luminaire
He wields a katana, and his lightning techs rule
Don’t even try to beat him; you’ll look like a fool
His journey starts with an experiment gone wrong
Throwing Crono to a time where he doesn’t belong
Back to the medieval times of castles and war
Saving the princess and stopping Magus’ horde
Then it’s off to the future, where civilization is dying
Robots rule all and the humans quit trying
The people are starving and really need food
Which Crono finds ‘cause he’s a really cool dude
Then it is off to the prehistoric age
Where he first gets a glimpse of Lavos’ rage
Lavos crashes into the earth and burrows to the core
This explosion causes the extinction of the dinosaurs
This just so happens at around 65 million BC
The coincidences in this game are startling and really trippy
But the entire plot would take to long to explain
It gets really deep and the twists are insane
But in order to shorten it and give you the jist
I have been cool enough to compile a small list
Noble self-sacrifice, a talking frog, a cross-dressing goon
A rigged trial, a Crono clone, and the powerful MasaMune
Robot love, the BLACK OMEN, hover-drag-racing
Mother Brain, the Epoch, brainwashing and mind erasing
I’m sorry if I’m boring you with my incessant prattle
But in this game are the most amazing battles
With double-techs galore, and triple-techs deal more
The Super Nintendo’s charm only adds to this games allure
Yet hardly anyone has heard of this modern gamer’s epic
They only play sports and fighting games that are pure septic
People think I am Robin Hood, a Jedi or Link
Their total ignorance almost pushes me over the brink
The fact that people don’t know this game is an intellectual crime
Whatever… I’ll calm down by beating it again… for the 43rd time

I guess I was a hardcore nerd but, one day I just stopped, I dunno. I still like some video games ect. but, I just don't get all crazy over it anymore.
This is still an awesome piece though.
