chronocentrism

Chronocentrism is the belief that, of all the billions of years of history, the times you live in are the culmination of the workings of the Universe.

(i) On March 26 1997 39 members of the Heaven's Gate religious group committed mass suicide in order to live on a spaceship which was following comet Hale-Bopp, and escape the Earth before it was recycled.

Showing Chronocentrism can have tragic consequences

(ii) "The End of History" by Francis Fukuyama

Showing Chronocentric ideas, barely credibly, are taken very seriously by mainstream politics and economics.

Chrono jail

In the MMORPG Guild Wars 2, being in "Chrono jail" refers to being forced to play Support Chronomancer in all types of PvE group content because people realized that you can be their slave on this amazing support class so that they don't have to do anything.

"How come he's always on the same class whenever we do group stuff?"
"Because he's in Chrono jail."

Chrono Resurrection

An unoffical made remake of the game Chrono Trigger, which was dubbed "Chrono Resurrection".

However Square Exix sent a cease and desist letter which means the project is publicly closed indefinitely.

This is the first and only attempt known at making a high quality nonofficial square enix game or remake of a game to this high degree.

Fan based games like Chrono Resurrection are known to be made in the form of flash movies, roms and other media formats, however most if not all of them end up being found out and and in the end becoming just another bookmark in the name of games that could have been.
